The overall costs of manufacturing precise components would be reduced. The heaters performed flawlessly. 81 LEW-16264 Improved Packaging of Silica Optical Fibers in Sensor Heads Fibers would be held in metal ferrules by matrices of fused glass. These thermocouples can be used to measure surface temperatures. Surfaces for Bonding Patterns are defined by small ceramic particles temporarily attached to surfaces to be textured.
Less labor is needed to prepare mold surfaces.
Vibrations Modified grinding wheels would be moved along modified trajectories. To Reduce Secondary Emission of Electrons Ion-beam texturing produces clean surfaces with reduced secondary electron emission. 118 LEW-15233 Embedding Optical Fibers in Cast Metal Parts Use of metal strain reliefs eliminates breakage of fibers during casting process. 84 LEW-15766 Rocket combustion Chambers Resist Thermal Fatigue Lewis Research Center developed an improved design concept for combustion chambers for rocket engines, described in three reports. The silver adheres tenaciously and reduces friction.
