Evaluation of Titanium Vacuum Chamber as Getter Pump

The Design, Construction and Testing of a Multipole Wiggler Magnet Titanium Vacuum Chamber for the Srs

A vacuum chamber is required for two new insertion devices (IDs) at the SRS. The chamber has been designed, finite element analysis performed, and a prototype constructed and successfully tested. The chamber is 1208 mm in length, it has an internal aperture of 134 mm x 16 mm and a minimum wall thickness of 1 mm. The chamber has been precision machined in two halves from titanium alloy and elect...

Vacuum Gauge to Vacuum Pump Valve

Rarefied Background Flow in a Vacuum Chamber

Spacecraft propulsion systems, such as Hall thrusters, are designed and tested in large vacuum chambers. The pumping capacity of modern facilities makes it possible to maintain pressures as low as 3 10 4 10 Pa. In this study, several free molecular models are developed to analyze the background flow inside a vacuum chamber. These models lead to various sets of analytical results including veloc...

Hydroelastic Vibration of a Circular Diaphragm in the Fluid Chamber of a Reciprocating Micro Pump

Reciprocating diaphragm micro-pumps are the most common type among indirectly–driven micro-pumps. They operate by reciprocating the diaphragm with associated check valves. This paper addresses the Hydroelastic vibration of circular elastic diaphragm interacting with the incompressible and inviscid liquid inside the cylindrical chamber with a central discharge opening. Taking into account axisym...

Effectiveness of Bench Top Non-Vacuum Autoclaves on Dental Turbine Chamber Sterilization

Introduction: Dental turbine chamber is a suitable reservoir for living microorganisms, so chamber sterilization is necessary for reducing cross contamination risk. On the other hand, in non-vacuum autoclaves, steam penetration into turbine chamber is doubtful, while they are still in use in dental clinics. In this study, performance of small non-vacuum autoclave in turbine chamber sterilizatio...
