Abstract:
A prefabricated animal bait containing a carrier substance and a pharmaceutically active substance, for example, a vaccine against rabies. The carrier substance contains a fat component and an additive to stabilize the shape retention of the bait, with both components being selected in such a manner that the mixture is pasty for processing and does not break in the temperature range in which it will be used. The bait is produced in such a manner that, in a deep-drawn mold, the carrier substance completely surrounds, and envelopes a pre-assembled unit of the active substance so that the bait merely needs to be pressed out of this carrier foil when it is to be used. Economical industrial production of prefabricated bait in a simple manner, easily and optimally adaptable to the respective animal species and its habitat with respect to temperature and moisture is provided. A particular simlification results from the use of fish meal as the additive since it simultaneously acts as a lure.
Abstract:
In order to provide an annular combustion chamber (3) which can be heated without thermal distortion, expands without distortion, and is reliably closed, and for repairs can be opened and permanently closed again and can be reconditioned, the inner and/or outer shell (8, 7) of an annular combustion chamber (3) is produced from a rotationally symmetrical sheet metal. For assembly, the shells are cut open along a split line (16), and the lower half of the inner and of the outer shell (8, 7) is introduced into the lower casing half of a gas turbine. After the insertion of the rotor, the two upper shell halves can likewise be inserted and be connected to the lower halves by welding. In order to improve the service life of the split line weld seam (21), film cooling of the weld seam is routed by an indentation. This may be implemented, for example, by welded-in split line elements (15) which are also suitable for retrofitting.

Abstract:
A platelike projecting component portion of a component used in gas turbines or other similar applications includes a surface upon which hot gas acts and cooling bores through which a cooling medium is capable of flowing. Effective cooling is achieved by providing at least one plenum assigned solely to the component portion. The plenum is arranged so as to be directly adjacent to the surface upon which hot gas acts and through which the cooling medium is capable of flowing to provide convective heat transfer. The cooling bores are designed as blow-out orifices which emanate from the plenum and issue the cooling medium onto the surface upon which hot gas acts, thereby forming a cooling film.
Abstract:
The invention relates to components made from ductile metallic materials, and to a method with which deformation or the load acting on these materials is to be determined by means of acoustic emissions analysis. For this purpose, a particulate substance which is brittle at least in the temperature range below 400° C. is added to the ductile metallic material, which may preferably be a weldable structural steel, but may also be a ductile light metal alloy (e.g. aluminum alloy), in order to intensify the acoustic emissions behavior. The particles should be brittle at least in the temperature range of use of the component in question, e.g. at room temperature. It is advantageous if the particles are also plastically deformable in the forming temperature range, so that a certain structure (elongate or acicular) of the particles can be achieved, for example during cold work-hardening.
