Switching mechanism with energy stored in coil spring
Cryogenically cooled superconducting electromagnets design, construction and properties for research in plasma and solid state physics, considering coil systems
Superconducting magnet system design, operation and module tests, noting large and small coil systems performance data relationship
Spool design and operation permit installation of up to 8 cables on single unit. Heat treating the cables while wound in a coil obtains effective recoil action.
Quality assurance provisions cover personnel training, radiographic equipment, radiographic test procedures, and inspection and examination of radiographs. Supplementary information includes accept and reject criteria for radiographic inspection of resistors, capacitors, transistors, hybrid microcircuits, diodes, small coils and transformers.

Supersonic wind tunnel electromagnetic balance with superconducting coils
Auxiliary propulsion system using low power MPD thrustors, discussing feasibility of thrust vectoring with skewed magnetic coil arrangement
Air-water flow pressure loss and phase distribution in tube with wire coil swirl generators
Circuitry utilizing electrical feedback of instantaneous speaker coil velocity compensates for loudspeaker resonance, transient peaks and frequency drop-off so that sounds of widely varying frequencies and amplitudes can be reproduced accurately from high fidelity recordings of any variety.
Coiled section of tubing measures viscous properties of gelled cryogenic propellants under conditions closely resembling flow in rocket engine systems. Characteristic flow curve provides data necessary for the design of prototype hardware systems using the liquid or gel of interest.
New design is proposed for ferrofluidic solenoid with low magnetic flux leakage. Solenoid consists of a coil centered within a football-shaped elastomeric capsule filled with a ferromagnetic fluid. Fluid replaces the solid, movable core of conventional solenoids, and elastomeric capsule acts as return spring.
Valve concept has been devised which offers lightweight, simplified mechanism capable of automatic control of large number of fluid flow ports. Valve control is achieved with valve stem which is bimetallic device activated by heating coil to open or close selected supply port. Number of controlled ports is limited only by desired physical size of system.
