A method of fabricating a semiconductor-on-insulator structure from a pair of semiconductor wafers, includes forming an oxide layer on at least a first surface of a first one of the wafers and performing a bonding enhancement implantation step by ion implantation of a first species in the first surface of at least either of the pair of wafers. The method further includes performing a cleavage ion implantation step on one of the pair of wafers by ion implanting a second species to define a cleavage plane across a diameter of the wafer at the predetermined depth below the top surface of the one wafer. The wafers are then bonded together by placing the first surfaces of the pair of wafers onto one another so as to form an semiconductor-on-insulator structure. The method also includes separating the one wafer along the cleavage plane so as to remove a portion of the one wafer between the second surface and the cleavage plane, whereby to form an exposed cleaved surface of a remaining portion of the one wafer on the semiconductor-on-insulator structure. Finally, the cleaved surface is smoothed, preferably by carrying out a low energy high momentum ion implantation step.

The COIL gain generator system includes a reactor for producing singlet delta oxygen and a mechanism for mixing high momentum diluent with the singlet delta oxygen and with iodine for producing a high momentum, low static temperature mixture of the singlet delta oxygen, diluent and iodine. The singlet delta oxygen and the iodine react to produce excited iodine atoms which can lase efficiently due to the low static temperature and can, after lasing, recover to high pressure in a diffuser due to the high momentum of the mixture. This provides the capability of using a chemical pump which allows a completely sealed system with no outside exhaust.

An asymmetric tetrahedral vortex generator that provides for control of three-dimensional flow separation over an underlying surface by bringing high momentum outer region flow to the wall of the structure using the generated vortex. The energized near-wall flow remains attached to the structure surface significantly further downstream. The device produces a swirling flow with one stream-wise rotation direction which migrates span-wise. When optimized, the device produces very low base drag on structures by keeping flow attached on the leeside surface thereof. This device can: on hydraulic structures, prevent local scour, deflect debris, and reduce drag; improve heat transfer between a flow and an adjacent surface, i.e., heat exchanger or an air conditioner; reduce drag, flow separation, and associated acoustic noise on airfoils, hydrofoils, cars, boats, submarines, rotors, etc. during subsonic or supersonic conditions; and, reduce radar signatures by using faceted edges with angles amenable to stealth technologies.

The preparation method includes: using a C/C composite material of 1.2-1.5 g/cm3 in density as a raw material; disposing the raw material in impregnation liquid I for impregnation, pyrolyzing in a protective atmosphere after impregnation, repeating impregnating-pyrolyzing operations until a carbon/ceramic composite material of 1.85-1.9 g/cm3 in density is obtained; treating the carbon/ceramic composite material obtained at high temperature until density of the carbon/ceramic composite material is lowered to 1.82-1.88 g/cm3 to obtain a pre-finished product; disposing the pre-finished product in impregnation liquid II, decomposing in a protective atmosphere after impregnation is completed, polishing after decomposing, and repeating impregnating-decomposing-polishing operations until a carbon/ceramic composite material finished product of 1.93-2.0 g/cm3 is obtained.

Sub-boundary-layer-scale ramp-like vortex generators that can be mounted on any surface such as the wing of an airplane, the inlet to a propulsion system, the hull of a ship, or any other surface over which a fluid moves, when the objective is to minimize drag, irreversibility losses, or other performance penalties that can occur for reasons such as boundary layer separation or other undesirable boundary layer properties. The disclosed devices acts to passively induce streamwise vortices in the boundary layer, thereby transferring high-momentum fluid toward the surface in such a way as to alter the shape of the velocity profile within the boundary layer and thereby avoid or delay separation or alter other properties of the boundary layer.

Disclosed is a manufactured three-dimensional convex-concave fairing with attached vortex generators, for hydraulic structures such as bridge piers and abutments, whose shape prevents the local scour problem around such hydraulic structures. The device is a conventionally made concrete or fiber-reinforced composite, or combination of both, vortex generator equipped hydrodynamic fairing that is fit or cast over an existing or new hydraulic structure around the base of the structure and above the footing. The vortex generators are positioned so as to energize decelerating near wall flow with higher-momentum outer layer flow. The result is a more steady, compact separation and wake and substantially mitigated scour inducing vortical flow.

A full-mixing overfire air device of a W-shaped flame boiler relates to an overfire air device of a boiler. The invention aims to solve the problems of the prior W-shaped flame boiler adopting overfire air nozzles in direct flow structure form, such as higher carbon content in fly ash resulting from the fact that the gas and pulverized coal in the jet flow of the conventional boiler are unlikely to be mixed with those between adjacent jet flows due to the poor lateral diffusion capacity. The higher carbon content in the ash can lower the heat efficiency of the boiler and increase coal consumption of power plants. One end of an outer air channel of the overfire air device is fixed on the outer side wall of an upper furnace at an overfire air nozzle, wherein the overfire air accounts for 25 to 30% of the total amount of air fed into the boiler. The overfire air is divided into two portions when entering the overfire air channel, one portion enters an inner air channel and is ejected to the furnace to achieve higher momentum, and the other portion enters the outer air channel to achieve higher rotation intensity, so that the two portions of the overfire air can achieve higher lateral diffusion capacity when entering the upper furnace and can be mixed with gas between two adjacent portions of the overfire air jet flow.

The furnace includes an oxy-fuel burner arrangement including at least two high momentum oxy-fuel burners having high shape factor nozzle geometries, and an enclosure. The vortex increases convective heating within the enclosure and uniformity of heating within the enclosure.

An air inlet for a flight vehicle engine includes at least one fin, at least partially upstream of a throat of the engine. The fin protrudes into a flow channel, extending beyond a boundary layer into the main airstream in the inlet. The fin causes mixing in the flow, bringing high-momentum flow into areas of the flow channel containing low-momentum flow by aggregating the boundary layer and causing it to lift from the surface. The fin may have a width and/or height that varies along its length in the flow direction, which may allow it to shape the flow around it in predictable ways, without resulting in excessive drag.

According to embodiments of the invention, an impeller includes a hub, and a plurality of radial blades for drawing the air inflow axially through the hub and delivering the drawn air radially towards the outside. A ring is attached to one or more tips of the plurality of radial blades to block a portion of the tip toward the inlet side of the impeller. The preferred blockage factor, which is the ratio of a height of the ring to a height of the tip, is approximately in a range between 30% and 40%. By blocking a portion of the tip toward the inlet side of the impeller, the low-momentum flow zone toward the inlet side of impeller is blocked, while the high-momentum flow zone toward the back side of impeller is enhanced. As such, the performance of the impeller is enhanced.
