Abstract:
A shipping container (10) for shipping thermally active materials (14) includes a plurality of structural panels (16) that define a container interior (18), and are configured for receiving the thermally active materials (14). The container (10) also includes an exterior disposed adjacent to an environment (E) in which the shipping container (100) is disposed. A thermal barrier member (24) is placeable between the thermally active materials and the environment (E) in which the container is placed. The thermal barrier (10) includes a thermal barrier interior panel (28) and a thermal barrier external panel (32) defining a heat absorbing material receiving cavity (34). A flowable polymer based heat absorbing material is disposed within the heat absorbing material receiving cavity (34). The thermal barrier (24) is configured to substantially surround the thermally active materials (14) to reduce the passage of thermal energy between the thermally active materials (14) and the environment (E) in which the shipping container (100) is disposed.
Abstract:
A high-, medium- and low-pressure reduction unit with a means for balancing the delivery piston which includes a reduction unit body (2) which forms a balancing chamber (3) which is connected to a delivery duct (10) and to an intake duct (11) which forms a passage port (12) on which an adjustment piston (13) pushed by an elastic means (17) acts. The particularity of the invention is that it includes a means (30) for balancing the adjustment piston (13), the balancing means (30) being controlled by the pressure that can be detected in the balancing chamber (3) independently of its value.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for storing gases and liquids having a high transmigration rate through containment surfaces due to their molecular size. An inner pressurized retaining enclosure for the storage of gas and liquids has a second enclosure wall about the first enclosure defining a gap between the respective enclosure surfaces which is filled with a containment gas or liquid having a molecular size greater than the porosity of the storage wall and stored gas or liquid. The containment gas effectively impedes the transmission of the storage gas and liquid through the first inner pressure retainer enclosure by creating a pressure barrier on its outer surface.
