Hot-wire calorimeter study of ion production and acceleration
A connector for use in the thermocouple circuits which is silver-brazed to the metal thermocouple sheath on one end and crimped over the insulation of the flexible lead on the other, assures protection against breakage and abrasion. A moisture-proof insulating material is used to encapsulate the wire junctions.
Magnetostriction in nickel wire spark chamber readout lines
Two-phase flow, using hot wire anemometer technique for detecting void distribution and phase velocities
An efficient wire puller consists of a steel probe with a hole in one end fastened to a steel cable which is strung with metal beads compressed by spring loaded ferrules. This device allows cables to be pulled or forced around bends and elbows in pipes or tubes.
Porous nickel mesh screen catalyst bed produces gas evolution in hydrogen peroxide thrust chambers used for attitude control of space vehicles. The nickel wire mesh disks in the catalyst bed are plated in rugose form with a silver-gold coating.
Thin-film, plated-wire memory matrix for computer applications requires little power yet has higher speed and four times greater storage capacity than ferrite-core memories of the same size.
Deforming the ends of a bundle of closely packed parallel wires to restrict the interstices to substantially uniform and minute dimensions produces grids or filters for ion engines. Porous metal structures made by this process are also used as fuel cell electrodes, diffusion membranes, and catalysts.
Gaging system automatically measures the bulk density of a stored, electrically nonconductive fluid containing varying portions of liquid and vapor. The system employs a three-dimensional wire-mesh capacitor whose capacitance varies with the bulk density of the fluid dielectric medium between the capacitor plates.

Arc stability and melting characteristics of welding wire for arc welding of 2219 aluminum alloy plate
Low power thin film plated-wire memory unit with nondestructive readout for spacecraft
Small solid particle acceleration by two exploding wire techniques
Two-transformer, two-lamp circuit monitors the continuity of ac ground, neutral, and phase wires. The circuit gives different visual indications if any one of the three lines should become open circuited.
Composite plate of fine steel wires imbedded in an aluminum alloy matrix results in a lightweight material with high tensile strength. Plates have been prepared having the strength of titanium with only 85 percent of its density.
Copper wire for electrical harnesses, when plated with both nickel and silver, resists galvanic corrosion and high temperatures while maintaining electrical properties and solderability.
Slip ring lead wires composed of ternary alloys of silver, have high electrical conductivity, a tensile strength of at least 30,000 psi, high ductility, and are solderable and weldable. An unexpected advantage of these alloys is their resistance to discoloration on heating in air.
Exploding Bridge Wire /EBW/ is treated as a transmission line system and pulse reflection techniques are used for checking the electrical integrity of an EBW cartridge. A step voltage is propagated into the system and the reflected voltage waves are monitored.
