Title: High output ozonating apparatus
Inventor: SHAW DONALD
IPC: C02F1/00
Filed: 2002-02-01
Granted: 2013-06-25
Abstract: An apparatus for treating water with ozone includes a first conduit and a passageway for admitting ozone into the first conduit. There is a second conduit having a top, an inlet connected to the first conduit and an outlet. There is a third conduit having a top and a vertical portion extending downwardly adjacent to the outlet of the second conduit. The third conduit has a bottom with an outlet below the outlet of the second conduit. The outlet of the second conduit is no more than one-third the distance from the top of the third conduit to the outlet of the third conduit. There is a passageway connecting the third conduit to the first conduit above the outlet of the second conduit.  The passageway is sized to permit a reduced flow of water through the third conduit compared to the flow through the second conduit and provides means for gas discharged from the outlet of the second conduit to rise through the vertical portion of the third conduit to increase dissolving of the gas in the water. There is a pump for pumping water with sufficient force from the outlet of the second conduit such that a stream of water and undissolved gas therefrom reaches a point at least one-half the distance from the outlet of the second conduit to the outlet of the third conduit.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system and method for establishing communication between a flight simulator and a secondary control system, such as a Flight Management System ("FMS"). Information can be transmitted between the flight simulator and the secondary control system via a socket in a TCP/IP connection between the two systems. In the event that the secondary control system does not natively communicate in TCP/IP format, the information must be translated to and from the TCP/IP format. In this manner, an actual deliverable version of the secondary control system can be used.

Abstract: A method, used in locating a mobile transmitter, includes providing a set of cross-correlation values, wherein each cross-correlation value is associated with a corresponding TDOA and/or FDOA estimae and is produced by cross-correlating a reference signal with a cooperating signal (fig. 5). The reference signal comprises a copy of a signal transmitted by the mobile transmitter as received at a first antenna and the cooperating signal comprises a copy of the same signal as received at a second antenna. The method further includes determining a most likely range of TDOA and/or FDOA  estimates, and then identifying an optimal cross-correlation value within a subset of cross-correlation values (fig. 10) corresponding to the most likely range of TDOA and/or FDOA estimates. The TDOA and/or FDOA value corresponding to the optimal cross-correlation value is then employed in calculating the location of the mobile transmitter.

Abstract: Chlorous acid is generated from a chlorite salt precursor, or a chlorate salt precursor. The ion exchange material facilitates the generation of chlorous acid by simultaneously removing unwanted cations from solution and andding hydrogen ion to solution. Chlorine dioxide is generated in a controlled manner from chlorous acid by catalysis. Chlorine dioxide can be generated either subsequent to the generation of chlorous acid or simultaneously with the generation of chlorous acid. For catalysis of chlorous acid to chlorine dioxide, the chlorous acid may be generated by ion exchange or in a conventional manner. Ion exchanage materials are also used to purify the chlorous acid and chlorine dioxide solutions, without causing degradation of said solutions, to exchange undesirable ions in the chlorous acid and chlorine dioxide solutions with desirable ions, such as stabilizing ions, and to adjust the pH of chlorous acid and chlorine dioxide solutions.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for providing an expandable threaded connection between segments of expandable tubulars is disclosed. Threaded connections are machined into pre-expanded ends (10, 20) of tubulars. Once the threaded connections are machined into the pre-expanded ends (10, 20), two joints (1) of tubulars are connected using the threads, thus creating a pre-expanded threaded connection. After a tubular string is made up and lowered into a wellbore, the entire length of the string is expanded using known methods for expanding tubulars. During the downhole expansion operation, the pre-expanded threaded connections experience minimal expansion. The minimal downhole expansion of the pre-expanded threaded connections allows the threaded connections to maintain their sealing ability and coupling strength.
