Abstract: The present invention is directed to a modular gas chromatograph (10) having a display screen. The gas chromatograph includes an explosion-proof housing (12) and a transparent panel secured to the housing. The display screen is disposed in the housing and is visible through the transparent panel. The gas chromatograph has a plurality of modules, including a feed- through module (14) , an analytical module (16) and a display module containing the display screen. The analytical module is mounted inside the housing and includes a GC module (164) , a manifold module (162) and an electronics module (20) . The analytical module may be removed from the housing as a unit. The GC module includes a column assembly and a printed circuit board, both of which are mounted to a valve assembly. A plurality of electronic devices are mounted to the circuit board. The electronic devices include non-volatile memory, pressure sensors and detector devices.

Abstract: A method and system operates a well having an outer casing, a tubing positioned inside the outer casing, and a plunger moveable within the tubing to periodically draw out a liquid slug. A chemical to slug size ratio is set by the operator. Thereafter, the gas flow rate is monitored and the well is shut-in when the gas flow rate drops below a predetermined threshold. After well shut-in, a calculated amount of chemical foaming agent is injected. The size of the liquid slug is calculated and then the well is opened, drawing the plunger and liquid slug up to the surface. The calculated amount of chemical foaming agent is calculated based on one or more previous liquid slug size determinations and the set chemical to slug size ratio.

Abstract: There is described a method and apparatus for controlling the combustion by-product formation rate in at least one burner of a fossil fuel fired power plant. The burner has an associated flame scanner which is focused on a small area of the burner flame to obtain an image signal of the flame. A flame signal that represents properties of temporal combustion in the visible light spectrum of the burner is generated from the image signal. Combustion turbulence at the burner is analyzed from the flame signal by a dynamic invariant that has a relationship to the combustion by-product values and different combustion by-product levels at the burner and the combustion turbulence is correlated to the combustion by-product formation rate at the burner. The method and apparatus can also be used to correlated the combustion turbulence at a multiplicity of burners to the associated combustion by-product formation rate.

Abstract: Headbox transient responses for sheet weight and moisture are modeled as a combination of two sets of time constants and dead time delays. One set represents a shorter delay with faster response dynamics, the fast mode weight and moisture responses, and the other models the longer delay with slower dynamics, the slow mode weight and moisture responses. A weight and/or moisture transient model is then formed for headbox changes by combining the fast mode weight and moisture responses and the slow mode weight and moisture responses. Stock weight and moisture dynamic and delay time models are determined for operation of stock flow of the paper making machine and the stock flow is controlled in accordance with the stock weight and/or moisture models and the headbox weight transient and/or moisture transient model to compensate for weight and moisture changes in a web of paper being manufacture which weight and moisture changes result from headbox changes.

Abstract: Un pistolet (100, 400, 500) de pulvérisation à poudre génère un motif souhaité de particules chargées de manière électrostatique pour couvrir une pièce de fabrication sans parties rotatives ou déflecteurs de particules. Le motif de poudre est généré avec une sortie en entonnoir en conjonction avec de l'air introduit dans une chambre (202) de turbulence et de chargement de poudre remplaçable du pistolet (100, 400, 500). La chambre (202) remplaçable est façonnée à partir d'un matériau présentant une résistance à la fusion par impact de poudre et à l'abrasion.

Abstract: The changer (106) has a hollow body portion with two ports which are in fluid communication with a cleaning fluid and a powder paint application device, respectively. Each change valve has an inlet and an outlet in communication with an interior cavity of the portion. Color valves corresponding to each purge valve has an outlet and inlet in communication with each inlet of purge valve and paint, respectively. Each change valve is operative in a mode to enable fluid communication between the inlet and outlet and operative in another mode to prohibit fluid communication between the inlet and outlet. The purge valves corresponding to each change valve has an outlet in communication with each inlet of change valve and has an inlet and a purge port. An independent claim is also included for a method of operating a powder paint applicator.
