Abstract: A furnace (10) having a continuous ash discharge stoker (12) which includes a fuel distributor apparatus (70) for delivering particulate fuel to the furnace (10) which includes a housing (72) having an inlet (42) for a particulate fuel and an inlet (76) for pressurized air. The housing includes a surface (86) for directing the flow of the particulate fuel and an outlet cooperating with the surface through which the associated particulate fuel and air exit the housing. The apparatus includes a nozzle (80) dimensioned and configured to direct pressurized air along a face of the surface to establish a boundary layer between the surface and the particulate fuel flowing over the surface. The nozzle comprises first (74) and second (82) flat plates disposed in mutually parallel spaced relationship, and aligned to at least a portion of the surface. Apparatus (70) includes an elongated outlet plate and the surface is on the elongated outlet plate. The outlet plate may pivot on an axis (88) proximate to the outlet of the nozzle, and may have an axially tapered ramp (90) at the end of the outlet plate remote from the nozzle. The inlet for pressurized air may include a plenum chamber (78).

Abstract: The method of repairing in situ a damaged or malfunctioning electrical connector (10) of a safety related nuclear reactor instrument (14) and its associated sheathed cable (18) wherein the damaged or malfunctioning connector portion (20) is cut from its associated cable (18) and replaced by a new connector portion. The wires of the cut cable are connected with the replacement connector portion and are suitably insulated. The cut cable and new connector portion are then secured together by a special alloy coupling (34) which is positioned in spanning relation with the cut cable (18) and the replacement connector portion (20). This special alloy has the property that it can be expanded within limits and upon being heated above a critical temperature will return to its original dimension. The tubular coupling accordingly has an expanded diameter slightly larger than that of the replacement connector portion and the sheath of the cut cable but an original inner diameter slightly smaller. When positioned in its spanning relation with these members it is heated above its critical temperature such that it shrinks to its original shape and securely grips these members. This special alloy coupling has both circumferential and axial ridges or barbs extending inward of its inner surface to engage each of the members extending thereinto when it is shrunk into place in order to enhance the sealing and torque resistance capability of the connection.
