    Abstract: A sanitary in-line sight glass assembly is provided having separate first and second hollow connection bodies and a transparent tube retainable between and within the connection bodies when the connection bodies are secured together in an end-to-end abutting relationship. Gaskets are located within the connection bodies at opposite ends of the transparent tube and a clamp is provided for securing the ends of the connection bodies together such that the gaskets are compressed and form seals. The connection bodies include sidewalls having at least one opening through which the transparent tube is exposed for providing a viewing window into a flow path defined by the assembly. The clamp may be a circumferentially-extending clamp having ends secured together with a winged fastener able to be gripped by the hand of an installer such that the assembly can be assembled and disassembled manually without the use of a tool.

    Abstract: A fluid flow indicator is presented particularly for use within an existing gasoline pumping apparatus. The fluid flow indicator includes an outer cage member, a first hollow transparent cylindrical member contained within the outer cage member, and a second hollow transparent cylindrical member concentrically retained within the first hollow transparent cylindrical member. The fluid flow indicator may also include a filter member and fluid movement detection means contained within the second hollow transparent cylindrical member. The fluid flow indicator is especially designed to be retrofitted within any existing fluid flow line.

    Abstract: A sight flow apparatus includes a body designed to be connected in-line to fluid pipes within a manufacturing plant or other facility. One or more window assemblies are removably mounted on the sides or ends of the body to allow visual inspection of fluid flow through the body cavity. A fluid indicator device i.e., a flapper assembly or a rotor assembly, is mounted within the body cavity and supported by an axle extending between the windows, between the body itself, or between a pair of alignment washers located within the body. The rotor assembly includes a plurality of planar blades which are interconnected to form generally radially extending vanes. An enlarged indicator cap is coupled to each end of the rotor assembly to improve visual examination of fluid flow effects, to lock the interconnected blades together and to prevent the blades from contacting the windows, alignment washer or body. The flapper assembly for the sight flow apparatus includes a single blade which is coupled on each end to the axle with an enlarged indicator cap. The indicator cap on the rotor assembly and the flapper assembly facilitate visually inspecting the fluid flow through the windows in the sight flow apparatus over a wide range of fluid conditions.

    Abstract: A rotary sight flow indicator which provides a visual indication of fluid flow and of the flow direction by the rotation of a shrouded cross-flow rotor. The sight flow indicator consists of a housing with a cavity containing the rotor and its shroud, and at least one view window by means of which the fluid inside the housing and the motion of the rotor can be observed. The rotor comprises a number of radial blades attached to a rotatable shaft placed substantially normal to the flow direction. A stationary shroud is positioned around a section of the circumference of the blades which shields the rotor blades from flow impingement during a portion of rotation. The asymmetric flow impingement on the rotor blades so created causes an unbalanced torque and consequently causes the rotor to turn.

    Abstract: A practical charging mechanism for an electrogasdynamic spectral anemometersing ultraviolet radiation. Ultraviolet radiation issues through windows in the wall of a test section through which flows a turbulent gas. The UV ionizes aerosol particles in the gas flow. A metallic rod which is connected to a high voltage source picks up ions of one polarity and a collector downstream neutralizes the ions of the opposite polarity. The current generated at the collector is measured and analyzed.
