Abstract: A static fluid mixer (10) includes an elongated fluid flow conduit (12) havi ng a centrally located longitudinally extending axis (14) and an inner generall y cylindrical wall (16) extending around said axis and defining a fluid flow path (18) within the conduit. The mixer also includes at least two circumferentially offset internal baffle members (20) designed to create counter-rotating vortices in fluids passing through the conduit. The first baffle is in the form of an elongated inclined plate positioned in said flui d flow path at a first location in said conduit. The second baffle member has a configuration and arrangement which is essentially the same as the first baffle, except that the second baffle member is circumferentially that offse t approximately 90 degrees and spaced longitudinally of the conduit from the first baffle member. This arrangement facilitates complete mixing of fluids with other fluids and/or with solid particles flowing through the conduit.</ SDOAB>

Abstract: An optical/analog/digital pulse detector receives an input signal and drives a Bragg cell illuminated by a collimated light beam. The Bragg cell spatially modulates the collimated light beam and upon exiting the Bragg cell is imaged by lenses of an optics network to the plane to an opaque plate. A binary optical plate replicates the image of the Bragg cell on the opaque plate. The opaque plate contains slits of various lengths located where the images of the Bragg cell are replicated. To obtain the power spectrum of each of the images on the opaque plate an anamorphic lens is positioned in the path of light passing through the opaque plate. Light passing through the anamorphic lens is sensed by a detector array having outputs coupled to a focal plane processor that processes the analog outputs from the detector array into initial tuning commands for detection and characterization of pulses in the input signal.
