摘要:
An electromagnetic flowmeter for measuring the flow rate of a fluid. The flowmeter has a measuring tube made of ceramics and defining a fluid passage therein for the fluid, electrodes having ends exposed to an interior of the measuring tube through holes which are formed in a wall of the measuring tube, a magnetic field generating device disposed around the electrodes, and a case encasing the measuring tube, the electrodes and the magnetic field generating means. A ratio t/R between a wall thickness t and a mean radius R of the measuring tube is determined such that stress generated in the measuring tube by the fluid in the measuring tube does not exceed the rupture stress of the measuring tube. The measuring tube can have flanges on both axial ends thereof, a radial height of the flange from an outer surface of the measuring tube is not greater than the wall thickness of the tube when the tube is made of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and not greater than a value three times as large as the tube wall thickness when the tube is made of Si.sub.3 N.sub.4. The electrodes may be made from Ni or an Ni alloy and are secured to the measuring tube by press-fitting into holes formed in the tube wall or by jointing. The electromagnetic flowmeter thus obtained exhibits high strength and reliability and high degree of gas-tightness in the tube portions around the electrodes.

When a ceramic is bonded to a metal having a low thermal expansion, if a Cr layer of a Cr diffusion layer is formed on the surface of the metal and the ceramic is bonded to the metal through this Cr layer or Cr diffusion layer by an Al insert, a bonded structure having a good air-tightness and a high strength is obtained.

A mold forming method in which a pattern is made of an organic material such as foamed polystyrene and at least a portion of the outer or inner surface of the mold pattern is covered by a thin coating, and surrounded with a mold material. The pattern is then dissolved by a solvent, leaving the coating undissolved. The coating is finally removed by a solvent contained in a slip which is poured into the cavity provided with the coating.

In a heat transfer surface having cavity groups and restricted opening groups in an outer surface region, the cavity groups are composed of a plurality of rows of void strip members. The cavity strip members are arranged in parallel on a base member of the heat transfer surface and are laminated in one or more layers. Each strip member has a number of elongate cavities laterally arranged in parallel. The elongate cavities are closed at upper surfaces and have at both ends openings. The adjacent cavities in the same layer are communicated with each other by communicating portions each provided between the cavity strip members and by the openings. The restricted opening groups are formed on the upper surfaces of the communicating portions. The restricted opening groups render the communicating portions in one layer, the communicating portions in another layer and the outside to communicate with each another. The method of manufacturing such a heat transfer surface is also disclosed.

An electromagnetic flowmeter comprises a ceramic measuring tube through which fluid to be measured flows, a pair of electromagnetic coils disposed on the outer surface of the measuring tube in the central region thereof at diametrically opposite positions and generating a magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the direction of flow of the fluid, a pair of measuring electrodes fixed to the outer surface of the measuring tube in the central region thereof at diametrically opposite positions and having electrode axes perpendicular to both the direction of flow of the fluid and the direction of the magnetic field, and a pair of metallic shields fixed to the outer surface of the measuring tube in surrounding relation to the measuring electrodes. A pair of the measuring electrodes and a pair of the metallic shields are fixed to the ceramic measuring tube by a reaction product due to an interface reaction with the ceramic measuring tube under heating.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a sodium-sulfur electric cell structure having a specific joint between a cathode tube and an anode tube. The cathode and anode tubes are each made of an iron-nickel base alloy and are joined to each other through the medium of a ceramic ring and an aluminum alloy insert provided on both sides of the ceramic ring. A chromium or chromium-rich layer is formed at the joint boundary between the insert and each tube. The sodium-sulfur electric cell having such a structure eliminates a problem of the occurrence of cracking, improves the airtightness and enables the production of large-sized electric cells.
