Title: Bridge permeameter

Abstract

A system for single-phase, steady-state permeability measurements of porous rock utilizes a fluid bridge arrangement analogous to a Wheatstone bridge. The arms of the bridge contain the sample and calibrated flow resistors.

Small drill-hole, gas mini-permeameter probe

Patent Molz, III, Fred J.; Murdoch, Lawrence C. [Clemson, SC]; Dinwiddie, Cynthia L. [Central, SC]; ...

The distal end of a basic tube element including a stopper device with an expandable plug is positioned in a pre-drilled hole in a rock face. Rotating a force control wheel threaded on the tube element exerts force on a sleeve that in turn causes the plug component of the stopper means to expand and seal the distal end of the tube in the hole. Gas under known pressure is introduced through the tube element. A thin capillary tube positioned in the tube element connects the distal end of the tube element to means to detect and display pressure changesmore » « less

Electronic field permeameter

Patent Chandler, Mark A [Madison, WI]; Goggin, David J [Austin, TX]; Horne, Patrick J [Austin, TX]; ...

For making rapid, non-destructive permeability measurements in the field, a portable minipermeameter of the kind having a manually-operated gas injection tip is provided with a microcomputer system which operates a flow controller to precisely regulate gas flow rate to a test sample, and reads a pressure sensor which senses the pressure across the test sample. The microcomputer system automatically turns on the gas supply at the start of each measurement, senses when a steady-state is reached, collects and records pressure and flow rate data, and shuts off the gas supply immediately after the measurement is completed. Preferably temperature is alsomore » « less

Chemical bridges for enhancing hydrogen storage by spillover and methods for forming the same

Patent Yang, Ralph T.; Li, Yingwei; Qi, Gongshin; ...

A composition for hydrogen storage includes a source of hydrogen atoms, a receptor, and a chemical bridge formed between the source and the receptor. The chemical bridge is formed from a precursor material. The receptor is adapted to receive hydrogen spillover from the source.

Transparent bridge for monitoring crypto-partitioned wide-area network

Patent Ramanujan, Ranga; Burnett, Benjamin L.

This disclosure is directed to monitoring a crypto-partitioned, or cipher-text, wide-area network (WAN). A first computing device may be situated in a plain-text portion of a first enclave behind a first inline network encryptor (INE). A second device may be positioned in a plain-text portion of a second enclave behind a second INE. The two enclaves may be separated by a cipher-text WAN, over which the two enclaved may communicate. The first computing device may receive a data packet from the second computing device. The first computing device may then determine contents of a header of the data packet. Themore » « less
