Direct indication of particle size in fluidized beds

Differential pressure measurements indicate particle size and particle size distribution in fluidized beds. The technique is based on the relationship between bed particle size and the intensity and frequency of fluctuations. By measuring the fluctuations, an estimate of average particle size of the fluid-bed material can be made.

Circuit counts pulses and indicates time of occurrence of slow pulses

Counter includes one section which counts the first several pulses, and a second section which counts pulses from a clock between the beginning of a sampling interval and the receipt of the first pulse by the circuit. The number of clock pulses indicates receipt time of the first pulse.

Simple test indicates degree of cure of polyimide coatings

Qualitative test involves immersing a coated cable in methyl-2-pyrrolidone and removing it in one to three minutes. Evidence of any cracking, peeling, or other defects that shows under 20-power magnification indicates that the coating has not been completely cured.

Indicators of the effect of jet noise on the value of real estate

Airport neighbors typically contend that their property should enjoy airport-accelerated appreciation in value but not suffer counterbalancing effects from jet noise. The paper discusses the effect of jet noise on property value as indicated by (1) market value changes, (2) insulation costs, (3) easement costs, and (4) litigation.

Lamp modulator provides signal magnitude indication

Lamp modulator provides visible indication of presence and magnitude of an audio signal carrying voice or data. It can be made to reflect signal variations of up to 32 decibels. Lamp life is increased by use of a bypass resistor to prevent filament failure.
