Mechanical Atomizers: In the mechanical atomizer, the pressure of the fuel itself is used as the means for atomization. Mechanical atomizers are available in sizes up to 180 million Btu/hr input, about 10,000 lb of oil per hr. The acceptable operating range may be as much as ten to one or as little as three to one, depending on the maximum oil pressure used for the system, the furnace configuration, air temperature, and burner throat velocity. Return flow atomizers are ideally suited for standard grades of fuel oil where it is desired to meet load variations without changing sprayer plates or cutting burners in and out of service. 4, record 3, English, - mechanical%20atomizer

Several [internal cooling] systems have been developed that incorporate three basic approaches: liquified gas, super-cold air with water vapor, and air exchange methods. With the liquified gas system, immediately after the parison has been expanded, liquid carbon dioxide or nitrogen is atomized through a nozzle in the blow pin into the interior of the bottle. The liquid quickly vaporizes, removing heat, and exhausts at the end of the cycle. In practice, this method has improved production rates by 25 to 35%. A disadvantage is the cost of the liquified gas. If its consumption is not precisely controlled, the total cost savings becomes minimal. 1, record 6, English, - liquified%20gas%20system

Le temps de refroidissement devient pratiquement proportionnel au carré de l'épaisseur, c'est pourquoi on a songé à compléter le refroidissement par contact avec l'empreinte par un refroidissement interne selon les différents procédés décrits ci-après. a) Renouvellement de l'air de soufflage. [...] b) Balayage au dioxyde de carbone. Après soufflage à l'air, on injecte du CO2 qui, sous forme liquéfiée sous 20 bar à une température de-20 °C, a un pouvoir réfrigérant de 314 kJ/kg(entre-20 et 0 °C). De plus, l'enthalpie de vaporisation de CO2 élevée(289 kJ/kg) favorise le refroidissement de la paroi interne des corps creux. On peut atteindre une cadence augmentée de 40% à condition, bien entendu, que la capacité d’extrusion en amont le permette. Toutefois, ce type de refroidissement ne paraît rentable que pour de fortes épaisseur(1 mm et plus) ou pour des corps creux de capacité supérieure à cinq litres. c) Procédé ISC(Internal Surface Cooling). [...] d) Procédé ALEX. Commercialisé par la Société Air Liquide, ce procédé utilise un échangeur fonctionnant avec de l'azote liquide pour refroidir à une température de-50 °C à-100 °C l'air ensuite utilisé pour le balayage du corps creux. 2, record 6, French, - balayage

Horizontal Rotary-Atomizing Burner. ... The burner consists of an atomizing or spinner cup, and air blower, and a region in which the air and oil are mixed. The cup, which is mounted on a horizontal motor shaft, is revolved at a speed of 3,450 revolutions per minute or higher. The oil fed to the cup is atomized by whirling the oil off the edge of the cup. As the oil droplets leave the edge, they are caught up in a horizontal air current from the blower. The resulting fuel-air mixture is ignited by a gas pilot near the cup, and the flame is projected horizontally. 2, record 7, English, - horizontal%20rotary%20cup%20oil%20burner
