A method of fabricating a glass fiber forming feeder is provided comprising positioning a refractory metal core between oxygen impervious, precious metal layers to form a pre-laminate unit, said core having apertures extending therethrough; cold isostatically pressing said unit to move a portion of said layers into said apertures into intimate contact with substantially all of the core defining said apertures; and then hot isostatically pressing said unit to intimately bond said precious metal layers to said core including the portion core defining said apertures to form said laminate to prevent the oxidation of said core at elevated temperatures.

A method of making feeder for supplying a plurality of streams of molten inorganic material to be attenuated into filaments is disclosed comprising inserting elements in apertures in a member; sealing said elements and member within a coating adapted to isostatically transmit pressure to said assembly; applying isostatic pressure to the hermetically sealed elements and member to mechanically join the elements to the member; joining the pressed member to other sections to form the feeder; installing the feeder at a fiber forming position to receive molten glass; and then energizing the feeder to fuse the elements to the member to prevent the unwanted passage of molten glass between said elements and said member, said elements having an orifice to permit the passage of molten glass therethrough to establish said streams.

A feeder for supplying molten streams of glass to be attenuated into fibers is provided comprising a refractory metal core; an oxygen impervious, precious metal sheath and an intermediate diffusion barrier layer intimately bonded together by hot isostatic pressing to form a unitary laminate, said laminate having inserts having orifices extending therethrough adapted to establish streams of molten material for attenuation into filaments.

Disclosed is a system providing practical power generation from heat energy input from a low grade source, such as solar energy. In a modified Rankine cycle, increased energy is extracted via the turbine by letting the working fluid drop to a lower pressure. Phase change of the low pressure working fluid is accomplished using enhanced condensation. Condensation is enhanced by use of an evaporative cooler. To enable continued operation when solar exposure is attenuated, a supplemental heater is included to heat the working fluid.

An evaporative cooler assembly includes a plurality of tubes extending from a refrigerant tank in a spaced relationship to one another with each tube defining a wet air passage. Each pair of adjacent tubes defines a dry air passage extending transversely to the tubes. Each tube includes a plurality of orifices each in fluid communication with the corresponding wet air passage and the adjacent dry air passage. A pair of air ducts are disposed on the refrigerant tank with the tubes being disposed between the air ducts and the air ducts being in fluid communication with the dry air passages whereby a dry air stream flows sequentially through a portion of the dry air passages and into one of the air ducts and through another portion of the dry air passages and into the other air duct until the dry air stream flows out of a dry air outlet as conditioned air.

A dehumidifier works in conjunction with a vehicle air conditioner to reduce both condensation and cooling load on the evaporator. A unique desiccant wheel design incorporates end plates separated by desiccant tubes that allow a cooling cross flow to be sent through and between the wheel end plates, over the outside of, but sealed from the inside of, the tubes. As outside air passes through the inside half of the tubes and is dried, the released latent heat of vaporization is picked up by the cooling cross flow, which is pre heated. It continues on across the wheel, where it is turned around, heated farther by engine waste heat, and then sent through the inside of the other half of the tubes to regenerate the desiccant.
