Vestas SailRocket2 delayed on route to Namibia
by Paul Larsen on 13 Apr 2011
Vestas SailRocket V2 Vestas Sailrocket - copyright
On Tuesday March 8th the SailRocket Team launched its second-generation speed sailing boat from East Cowes on the Isle of Wight. Vestas SailRocket 2 is designed to be significantly faster than its predecessor, with the ultimate aim of breaking the 'Outright World Speed Sailing Record'.
On Monday March 14th, Vestas SailRocket was packed and shipped to Walvis Bay, Namibia. The original ETA was 6th April. Now the arrival is delayed until 13-14th.
Paul Larsen writes:
So, I sit here writing this with the laptop living up to its name. Over my toes the African sun sets over 'speed-spot'. There is no wind and it's deathly quiet. In the depths of the silence you can here the distant surf on a shore you can barely see. The bird-life in this place is amazing. Huge flocks wheel in the distance, Pelicans settle for the night on a spit that will soon be submerged... but no flamingoes.
One drive down the main street and it feels like we never left. A hard 16 months of boat building just seems to disappear. It's actually quite surreal to be back. We have so many emotion charged memories attached to this place.
Things have changed though. I don't feel in awe of that amazing mile sitting opposite me now despite the beatings it has handed out. As a project, we have matured a great deal whilst speed-spot reamins the same as the day we first arrived. We understand it now. I feel we have its measure. I respect it and am ready for a real battle... it's hard to descibe... I guess I just believe in the outcome.
The Ship carrying Vestas Sailrocket 2 was due to arrive tomorrow. I found out today that it will in fact be a week late. Apparently it has some 'rain sensitive cargo' onboard and had to park up off Portugal for some time to wait for suitable weather! It's annoying because they didn't inform us or our shipping agents. Well, there is nothing we can do about it. Helena and I are here to sort out cars, houses, internet etc for when everything and everyone else arrives. We are constantly looking for a deal to make this whole thing affordable. These are funny times in the big picture of the global economy. No-one is immune. You can clearly see the effects down here. Inflation is coming and if you don't pay real attention then things blow-out quite quickly. We have to remain 'goal orientated'. What do we really need to get this job done. It's not a holiday we are after but a world record.
I like coming back here. The whole place is our arena. This is where our dreams will be realised. It sits and waits patiently for when we ourselves are ready to succeed.
I feel calm.
A new boat custom built for this beach is coming this way at a steady 16.3 knots. It was somewhere off Senegal this morning. It will arrive and we will apply all that we have learnt to try and make it realise its potential. What happens between now and then is all part of an unfolding story that we are happy to openly share right here.
We have brought a few more tools with us to try and bring you all closer to the action.
The boat is due in on the 13-14th April.
Cheers, Paul.

Joan Cusack has joined the cast of Showtime's new drama series Shameless and appear in all 12 episodes of the new series. She'll play the role of Sheila, an agoraphobic Chicago housewife with a sexually active teenage daughter who strikes up a special friendship with William H. Macy's character, Frank Gallagher.

Production on the series begins in mid-September for a January 9 premiere. Cusack, nominated for an Oscar for Working Girl and In & Out, most recently reprised her role as the voice of Jessie in Toy Story 3. Shameless, from John Wells and Paul Abbott, is based on the long-running hit UK series and stars William H. Macy and Emmy Rossum. »

But after one drink too many at her 30th birthday party, perpetual good girl Rachel unexpectedly ends up in bed with the guy she's had a crush on since law school, 'Dex' (Egglesfield)…who just happens to be Darcy's fiancé. When Rachel and Darcy's lifelong friendship collides with true love, it leads to unexpected complications and potentially explosive romantic revelations..."

Kate Hudson and Ginnifer Goodwin were up early this morning in NYC to get to work playing best friends and enemies in Something Borrowed. They were joined by John Krasinski as well as newcomer Steve Howey, who is taking over the role of Marcus, which was once rumored to belong to Colin Farrell. John has already logged in a number of days with the ladies, including last week's filming in the Hamptons, but Steve is new to set and brought along his 11-month-old son to check out the scene. Just like her character, Kate Hudson had all eyes on her as she showed off a colorful piece from her wardrobe after turning heads with all her outfit changes the past few days.

At first glance, Cranksgiving 12 sounds like a get-together for ungrateful bastards who are too busy texting to give thanks for anything. But really, Cranksgiving is quite the opposite. Every year, a week before Thanksgiving, the New York Bike Messenger Foundation gathers serious cyclists (more than 120 entered last year) for a race around the city to designated grocery stores to purchase all the items on the contests grocery list. Of course, if you dont want to race, you can also do the ride at a more leisurely pace because, at the end of the day, everyone is a winner (awww . . . ). Bring a bag, some cash, and a good bike lock.

Outfiedler Joe Benson batted .382 over his first eight games following his demotion from Class AA New Britain. So were the Twins wrong for sending him down in the first place? After all, Benson was starting to hit at New Britain when he was sent down.
Who knows? But the Twins wanted Benson to work on making more contact so he could his impressive skill set in motion, and he has. Perhaps he can return to New Britain before the season is over.
``He's starting to get it figured out a little bit, being more selective at the plate and putting the ball in play,'' said Jim Rantz, the Twins' director of minor leagues. This kid has got a lot of talent.''
Benson, the Twins' second round pick in 2006, was batting .219 in 33 games at New Britain when the demotion occurred. He can run and throw, and has played all three oufield positions. At age 22, the Twins are anxious to see him put it all together.
Under the knife
The injuries in this orginzation have been a little startling. Three prospects had surgery this week.
Actually, one of them wasn't on a prospect. Lefthander Mike Maroth, trying to get his career back on track after a couple of injury-filled seasons, had a bone spur removed from the elbow that was giving him fits. He's going to be out four to five weeks, which is another setback for the veteran.
Righthander Steve Hirschfeld, who pitched in three game for New Britain, had ankle surgery and is out for a few weeks.
Knuckleballer Charlie Zink will be out several weeks after shoulder surgery.
2009 not so fine
This section is reserved for pitchers from last year's draft.
Lefthander Matt Bashore, the 46th overall pick last year out of Indiana, is out for the season after undergoing Tommy John surgery last week.
Hard-throwing righthander Ben Tootle, a third-round pick, had surgery to repair labrumm problems in his shoulder, making him out indefinitely.
Ben Revere was named Eastern League player of the week last week. He then went out Thursday during a mid day game and went 4-for-4. He's batting .450 over this last 10 games with four doubles, seven walks and ZERO strikeouts. He's batting .329/.403/.401 for the Rock Cats. Yes, the on base and slugging are in the right order.
Carlos Gutierrez, also at New Britain, has a 1.99 ERA in five starts this month.

I was a little scared, because firstly ordered and later read reviews about this site. All the goods to Lithuania come in six day after ordering. It's fast comparing with other foreign based suppliers and also delivering costs was not so high as I looked for golf clubs sets and other golf equipment. I ordered 3 club sets and that does not increase my delivering costs.
First impression of Woodworm clubs is good, but here we still have winter outside, only indoor test was done. As for beginner this set for me looks very good.
One thing I missed in time of ordering, the order confirmation on e-mail, but then connected to my account on web page, all information I found were. I have not any more complains about my order, paid by Pal pal, all transaction was clear and secure.

2.7 /5 from 100 reviews
Shower curtain was too short,allowing water to get on the floor. Refrigerator and microwave did not work. Hotel needs a lot of work to refresh the rooms.Very outdated!!!
Dirty rooms. Not a place to take the family
Was comfortable but needed upgrades to the room. Breakfast provided was a joke
This is not a fancy hotel. Was only there for a night of sleep before attending a conference. Did not care about any extra hotel features as long as the room was clean and had a comfortable bed to sleep in. It is a perfectly good hotel and it was a good value for the price I paid. I would say it is average in quality over all compared to all hotels. Would also say it is above average in quality compared to other hotels in the same price range. If you want a spa and room service go to a bigger fancier hotel. For business travel and a night of rest close to the main road and restaurants this is a good stop.
Convenient location. Friendly staff. Wonderful stay.

The Vans Warped Tour
When it was launched in 1995, the Warped Tour was one of many multiband bashes from H.O.R.D.E. to Lilith Fair that emerged in the wake of the influential, highly successful Lollapalooza festival. So why, seven years later, are virtually all of these allegedly annual events, including Lollapalooza, either defunct or on hiatus, while the Warped Tour is still shredding eardrums nationwide? Scale, scope and focus have a lot to do with it. From the beginning, Warped has been less interested in big bucks and generalized greed than in showcasing the newest, freshest punk, ska and youth-culture mayhem for a reasonable price and that hasn't changed. This year's attendees will hear veteran acts such as Bad Religion and NOFX alongside younger outfits like Pistol Grip and Quarashi, for whom Warped isn't a passing fad but a way of life. Take that, Perry Farrell.

Product Description:
Liner Note Author: Tony Rounce.
Recording information: 1970-2005.
Irma Thomas had already established herself as one of R&B's finest vocalists in the 1960s, a decade that saw the artist's most artistically (if not commercially) successful efforts. Although Thomas's '70s work was sporadic and less consistent, it was still of a high caliber. A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT--THE ESSENTIAL 1970s RECORDINGS collects the best of Thomas's output from the decade, including rarities, singles, and selections from her album IN BETWEEN TEARS. Since many of these tracks are difficult to find, A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT provides a valuable service, and is a great way for Thomas fans to catch up on some of the New Orleans queen's lesser-known material.

What type of rev counter? There are two variations; The wire to the coil from the ignition switch goes through the Tacho.The Tacho has a tap from the "coil from the ignition" and a separate 12v feed.

DMV site allows street-level view of traffic accidents
The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles is making it easier for citizens to see street-level views of traffic accidents through a new feature on its website.
The DMV recently added the new feature to its interactive crash database using Google mapping functionality.
""The new feature has a wide-range of benefits for safety advocates and the general public," said DMV Commissioner Richard D. Holcomb. "For example, if you are relocating to Virginia, you can use this feature to find out how many crashes, if any, happened on the street where you are moving."
The new feature is a map of Virginia containing all of the Commonwealth's roads. To find details about crashes that happened at a certain intersection or road, users hold down the left shift key and draw a square on the map with their mouse around a specific area of the state.
Red triangles indicate a fatal crash occurred, and yellow and green dots indicate an injury or property damage associated with the crash. If users roll their mouse over the triangle or dot, details including time, weather conditions and a causative factor appear. The new interactive map is available at http://www.dmvNOW.com/crashmap.
The crash map is part of DMV's automated Traffic Records Electronic Data System (TREDS) that centralizes all of Virginia's crash data and related information. The public gained access to TREDS for the first time last August and citizens can now search for general information about crashes statewide or in a specific locality, and create custom reports with date ranges that include crashes with injuries, fatalities or both. No personal driver information is published.
TREDS is Virginia's "one-stop-shop" for accurate, timely and detailed highway safety information for analysis and reporting. TREDS data is used to support Virginia's efforts to reduce crashes, injuries, fatalities and associated costs.
Since the launch of TREDS, safety advocates are studying a more complete picture of crashes and their true impact on the Commonwealth. Vehicle crash data from DMV, crash location and road information from VDOT, data from ambulances and other rescue vehicles, data from the trauma registry, hospital discharge data and vital records databases will be all tied together under TREDS.
"Linking the data together in a common format is efficient and creates more comprehensive, accurate crash statistics," Holcomb said. " TREDS gives us a 360-degree view of crashes and their causes, which can aid in preventing future traffic fatalities."

Backstage: The State of the Buyers' Guide
The last couple of weeks have been very busy behind the scenes at iLounge, for reasons you probably understand if you've been following the Site News on the main page. Roughly 125% of my energy is going into the iLounge Buyers' Guide 2004, and it is in seriously awesome shape right now. I wouldn't say that if it wasn't, and I haven't wanted to say much on the subject until I could really see it for myself in tangible, concrete form.
At the moment, something over 60 pages of new iLounge material has been finished and/or laid out, with more to come over the next several days before we lock down the Guide editorially. I'd promise a specific number, but I want to leave it flexible given a few concerns we're continuing to manage on this end. Suffice to say that the hard parts are officially behind us at this stage, and we feel confident that we'll be delivering something excellent to you all for the holidays. We've been considering when and how to distribute an early sample to everyone, but that hasn't been decided yet. If you guys have questions or requests, make them known soon and I'll try my best to address them before we lock it down.

i cannot wait to see the final product. you guys are the most knowledgeable ipodders and would most certainly produce an ipod guide that covers all the aspects of the product as well as make it a very interesting read for those of us who already know so much about the ipod.

A specific embodiment comprises superposed chimney sections whose outer casings have end flanges which are clamped together, the corresponding flue sections being suspended from the casings.
2 Claims, 9 Drawing Figures PATENIED URI I 51974 sum 2 OF 2 NON-POLLUTING CHIMNEY This is a divisional of application Ser. No. 221,620 filed Jan. 28, 1972, now abandoned.
The present invention relates to a non-polluting chimney, that is a chimney which discharges products of combustion at sufficient height, temperature and velocity to avoid noticeably polluting the surrounding atmosphere.
The obtainment of a sufficiently high discharge velocity in the upper part of a chimney depends on maintaining a relatively high temperature of the product being discharged. This relatively high temperature is moreover beneficial since it prevents the production of corrosive products and smoky charcoal. The maintenance of such atemperature requires heat-insulating the chimney so as to avoid an excessive cooling of the product discharged. For this purpose, chimneys have been constructed having a discharge flue which is surrounded by a sleeve of aluminium whose inner surface reflects back onto the flue the heat given off by the latter and thus achieves an efficient heat insulation. However, these chimneys of aluminium are relatively weak and finally become oxidized both externally and internally. Consequently, their reflecting power diminishes and this has for result to reduce the heat insulating effect, increase the heat losses in the chimney and produce an undesirable drop in the temperature of the products discharged.
An object of the present invention is to overcome these drawbacks and provide an improved nonpolluting chimney whereby it is possible to satisfy the various requirements of the art in an improved manner.
The invention provides a non-polluting chimney comprising a flue for the products to be discharged, a
covering of heat-insulating material surrounding the flue, and a casing of plastics material surrounding the covering.
In a particular embodiment of the invention, the chimney comprises a plurality of superposed sections each of which comprises a heat-insulated flue section and a casing section provided at both ends with assembly flanges and each flue section has a collar at each of its ends, the adjacent flanges of two successive casing sections defining recesses which receive the adjacent collars of the corresponding two flue sections.
In another embodiment of the invention, the chimney comprises a plurality of superposed sections each of which has a heat-insulated flue section and a casing section having at both ends assembly flanges, each flue section being suspended from the upper flange of the corresponding casing section. Thus, when the temperature of the products to be discharged is very high, for example 300-350C in the case of products of combustion and with a flue of stainless steel or aluminium, the expansion allowed by such an assembly may be very considerable without resulting in stresses that adversely affect the correct performance of the chimney over a period of time.
Further features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the ensuing description with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the drawings:
FIG. I is a partial half-sectional and half-elevational view of a chimney according to a first embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken on line A-A of FIG.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the assembly of two sections of the chimney;
FIG. 4 is a vertical sectional view of the assembly of the crowning of the chimney shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a plan view of a fastener for the guying of the chimney;
FIG. 6 is an elevational view, with parts cutaway, of a chimney according to a second embodiment of the invention, and
FIGS. 7, 8 and 9 are partial diametral sectional views on an enlarged scale of three parts of the chimney shown in FIG. 6 respectively corresponding to the assembly of two chimney sections, the assembly of the crowning with the upper chimney section and the assembly of the lower chimney section with the associated installation.
The non-polluting chimney shown in FIGS. 1-5, comprises a flue 1 for discharging the products of combustion, a covering 2 of heat-insulating material surrounding the flue l and a casing 3 of platics material surrounding the covering 2. The flue l is of a material resisting the heat and corrosive attack of the products of combustion to be discharged. This flue may be of metal, in particular steel or stainless steel. In order to compensate the effects of expansions due to heat, the flue 1 may be provided with folded portions in the form of bellows, but it is moreadvantageous to employ a flue constructed in the known manner by the rolling and seaming of a band of metal in the form of a helix 4, the seaming allowing absorption of the expansions consequent to the heating of the flue 1. If desired, the flue may have a helical reinforcing groove parallel to the helix 4.
Although other heat-insulating means may be employed, the heat-insulating covering 2 is preferably composed of rock wool. The covering is held on the flue l by bindings 5 or metal netting.
An annular space 6 is formed between the outer face of the covering 2 and the inner face of the casing 3. The latter is preferably of self-extinguishing stratified polyester and coloured throughout its thickness. The casing 3 can be constructed by the assembly about the covering 2 of two semi-shells 7 and 8 which are welded together by the supply of plastics material at 9 and 10, lap joints 11 and 12 being adhered to these welds. If need be, for the purpose of for example dismantling the chimney, these welds are broken to separate the two semi-shells 7 and 8 which may be re-assembled by a further welding. Longitudinal ribs 13 stiffen the casing 3.
Except as concerns short chimneys, the chimneys according to the invention are constructed by the assembly of a plurality of sections each of which comprises a heat-insulated flue surrounded by a casing of plastics material.
In order to preclude heat losses which would have for effect to reduce the temperature of the products of combustion and render these products corrosive or harmful, not only the flues of these sections are heatinsulated, as explained hereinbefore, but the connection of the flue of one chimney section to the flue of the chimney section immediately above or below is arranged in such manner as to avoid a thermal connection or bridge between the two flues or between these flues and the atmosphere surrounding the chimney. For
this purpose, the flues 1, 14 of the superposed chimney sections 15, 16 terminate respectively in identical collars or flanges 17, 18 which are in facing relation. These collars may be welded to the flues. A heatinsulating seal or gasket 19 is interposed between these collars to prevent any direct contact between the flues 1, 14 or between their collars 17, 18. In the conventional case of circular cylindrical flues, the collars 17, 18 and the seal 19 are in the form of circular rings and a double flange 20 on the seal 19 enables the collars, and consequently the corresponding flues, to be mutually centered. On the side opposed to the seal 19, each collar 17 or 18 receives an annular heat-insulating seal or gasket 21 or 22, each seal being in two semicircular parts. The seals 19, 21 and 22 may be of an asbestos material.
One chimney section is fixed toa superposed section by means of flanges integral with the casings of the sections, these flanges being held assembled by bolting. The assembly of these flanges ensures the assembly of the aforementioned collars and seals and the connection of the corresponding flues. Thus, the casing 3 of chimney section 15 forms a flange 23 which is fitted on the flange 24 integral with the casing 25 of the chimney section 16. Bolt means 26 assemble the flanges 23 and 24. Each flange 23 or 24 defines a recess 27 or 28 receiving respectively the collar 17 and seal 21 of the section 15 and the collar 18 and seal 22 of the section 16. Annular grooves 29 and 30 serve to center the seals 21 and 22 with respect to the flanges 23 and 24. With the seal 19 in position between the two collars 17 and 18, the tightening of the bolt means 26 clamps the seals 19, 21 and 22 against the collars 16 and 17 and consequently holds these collars assembled and interconnects the corresponding flues 1 and 14.
The extent of the upper flange such as 23 of an assembly of flanges covers or overlaps the lower flange such as 24. This covering or overlapping precludes infiltrations of water between the flanges.
According to the invention, the crowning of the chimney comprises a member 31 of epoxy glass which fits on the upper flange 32 of the upper chimney section 15. The member 31 defines a convergent portion which accelerates the discharge of the products. This member 31 is fixed by bolt means 33 the tightening of which maintains the upper end collar 34 of the flue 1 in position by the clamping of heat-insulating seals 35 and 36 between the member 31 and a recess 36a in the flange 32.
Curved members 37 having apertures 38 and 39 adapted to be engaged on the bolt means such as 26 enable the chimney to be guyed, the corresponding guy being attached at 40.
By way of a modification, in order to compensate possible differences in length, one of the collars carried by a flue section can be fixed to a sleeve which is slidably mounted on the flue and provided with a seal affording a fluidtight sliding assembly.
The collars may also be provided with preferably heat'insulating bosses and apertures receiving these bosses so as to center the facing collars, such as 17 and 18.
The chimney described hereinbefore affords, in addition to other advantages, the advantage of being light and very easily erected. It may be completely dismantled and has an attractive external appearance. No servicing or maintenance of its outer part is required.
The chimney illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 9 comprises an inner flue through which the products to be discharged flow, a covering of heat-insulating material surrounding the flue and a casing of plastics material surrounding this covering. It comprises a plurality of superposed sections each of which comprises a flue section 41, a heat-insulating material covering section 42 and a casing section 43.
Each casing section 43 is constituted by a cylindrical tube which has at each end, moulded in one piece therewith (which increases its stiffness), an annular assembly flange 44 having an annular peripheral portion 45 parallel to the rest of the flange but axially offset relative thereto in the direction of the neighbouring chimney section. This tube has in its upper and lower end parts 43a an increased wall thickness equal to the thickness of the flanges so as to reinforce the casing assembly region. Each casing section bears against the lower casing section by the direct contact between the annular peripheral portions 45 of the their flanges and by the bearing of the remaining parts 44 of these flanges against each other through two annular asbestos seals or gasket 46 between which is interposed a thick metal ring 47 the function of which will be explained hereinafter. Two rows of bolt means 48 and 49 respectively hold the assembly together in the region of the seals 46 and in the region of the peripheral portions 45. The peripheral portion 45 of the lower flange of each casing section has a cylindrical depending flange portion 45a which covers the peripheral portion 45 of the upper flange of the underlying casing section. Outer ribs 50 are provided along generatrices of the casing so as to stiffen the latter.
Each flue 41 consists of a metal band which is wound in the form of a helix and interlocked or seamed externally so as to constitute a cylindrical conduit which is suspended from a cylindrical socket or tube 51 of stainless steel having in its lower part a stepped portion 52 on which the section 41 is fitted and secured by rivets 53 and in its upper part a formed-over outer flange 54. The flange 54 of the socket 51 bears on the upper edge of a cylindrical sleeve 55 of mild steel which has a slightly greater inside diameter and is connected in its upper part to the metal ring 47 by a plurality of radial arms 56 which are in a number which varies with the diameter of the chimney and are reinforced by metal gussets 57 which bear against the sleeve 55. The length of each flue section is such that the lower part of the flue section extends into the support socket 51 of the flue section located thereunder to the extent of about one-half of the length of the socket 51. The flue is for example constructed from stainless steel when the products to be discharged are products of the combustion of fuel oil since these products contain a notable amount of S0 or from aluminium when the products are the products of combustion of gas, these products containing a notable amount of H 0.
the heat insulation covering and are combined with retaining plates 62 behind the netting 58. Internally, the heat-insulating covering is in contact with the flue 41 throughout its surface.
Thus, the various flue sections are fitted together by socket connections and this avoids the provision of a seal and moreover allows in the socket an axial expansion which is as large as could possibly occur. Further, radial expansions are allowed by a sufficient clearance between the socket 51 and the associated support sleeve 55. The flue sections are therefore assembled with no welding which would tend to set up stresses and the assembly is fully floating.
Further, each flue section and the heat-insulating covering section fixed thereto are entirely and solely supported by the corresponding casing section 43. This renders the whole of the chimney self-supporting by its casing of plastics material so that no servicing or maintenance is required. The casing is preferably of stratified polyester reinforced with fibre glass so as to possess the required strength and stiffness. It is preferably formed in a mould having a mirror-polished surface so as to possess perfectly smooth surfaces.
The action of the bolt means 48 and 49 results, in respect of the inner row of bolt means 48, in an excellent stability of the metal ring 47 clamped between the two flanges which thus constitutes in itself a very strong reinforced flange, and, in respect of the outer row of bolt means 49, in a good seal against entry of rain water, this seal being still further enhanced by the existence of the formed-over peripheral portion 45a, on the upper flange.
The heat exchanges are reduced to a minimum since a large empty space 63 is provided between the heatinsulating covering 42 and the outer casing 43 so that the chimney has two insulating layers of which one is constituted by the heat-insulating covering 42 and the other by the air in the space 63. The asbestos seals 46 preclude transmission of heat in the region of the suspension of the flue sections and the creation of cold regions.
The space 63 moreover ensures that the expansion of the flue 41 has no effect on the outer casing and this reduces the number of adjustments required for the guying of the chimney. This guying is achieved by means of guy cables 64 fixed to plates 65 which are mounted on the flanges 44 either above andheld fast by the bolt means 49, or below and held fast by the bolt means 48.
The described structure of the chimney enables the exhaust noises, resulting for example from the transmission of the noises of combustion, to be eliminated without loss of pressure in the products to be discharged. This elimination of noises is still further facilitated by the possible provision of apertures 66 in the wall of the flue sections 41, except possibly the lower section in which when the products to be discharged are gases, these gases expand whereas in the following sections they are already less hot.
The perfect heat insulation of the chimney imparts to the products to be discharged a particularly high upward velocity which creates throughout the height of the chimney a depression in the gas flue 41 of the order of 3 to l5 mm of water; thus, owing to this permanent depression, no escape of product to the exterior is possible. Even an accidental increase in pressure, for example, caused by the installation at the upstream end of the chimney, could not result in an escape of product since the outer casing 43 is strictly fluidtight in the region of the assembly of the flanges, owing to the perfectly smooth surface condition of these flanges which are produced by a moulding operation, as mentioned hereinbefore.
The surface condition of the gas flue precludes attachment of soot and renders chimney sweeping unnecessary. The assembly of the sections of the chimney by means of floating socket connections allows an extremely easy erection in addition to freedom of expansion.
The chimney has a very high resistance and high temperatures.
However, the essential advantage afforded by the structure described resulting from an excellent heat insulation is, as in the case of the first embodiment described, the avoidance of formation of smoky charcoal which is constituted by a complex of carbon and nascent H- SO, and is in the form of black fluff which oxidizes the metal surfaces onto which it falls.
The nature of the gas flue (for example, stainless steel or aluminium) and the perfect heat insulation enable the chimney to withstand gas temperatures of the order of 500C.
The assembly of the crowning of the'chimney with the upper section and the assembly of the lower section with the chimney support are achieved with slight modifications in the assembly of the chimney section with each other.
The assembly of the crowning member 67, which is composed of epoxy resin reinforced with fibre glass, has a centre portion having a convergent shape so as to accelerate the flow of the discharged products and a wide flange 68 around the centre portion which has on its periphery the same shape as the flange 44 of the easing sections, the fixing being achieved in the same manner by means of two rows of bolt means 48 and 49 and with interposition of asbestos rings except that the ring 46a located above the ring 47 supporting the upper flue section is much larger so as to overlap entirely this ring, the connecting arms of the ring 47 and the formed-over outer flange of the flue section.
The lower section of the chimney bears against a connecting member constituted by an annular base 69 which is fixed on the support 70 for the chimney (for example, smoke-box of a boiler, base of metal or masonry, flue or raised portion) which carries two cylindrical sleeves 71 and 72 of which the first fits with a slight clearance inside the lower flue section and the second surrounds the heat-insulating covering and the corresponding netting and carries in its upper part a to corrosion steel annular flange 73 on which the lower flange of the lower casing section bears, these two flanges being assembled by two rows of bolt means 48 and 49 in the same manner as the other flanges but with the interposition of a similar seal 46 and another annular seal of asbestos 46b which extends radially to the formed-over peripheral portion 45a of the casing.
As in the entrance of the chimney the pressure is usually neutral or is a few millimetres, the arrangement of the flue 41 outside the sleeve 71 precludes the passage of gases into the rock wool which would deteriorate the latter. This arrangement also facilitates directing the rain water which may flow along the interior of the flue in the direction of the annular space between the two sleeves and an outer drain pipe 74.
sections to each other, and means for interconnecting the flanges of adjacent casing sections, in which each flue section has a collar at each end, and adjacent flanges of two adjacent casing sections define recesses which receive the adjacent collars of the corresponding two flue sections.
2. The non-polluting chimney as claimed in claim 1, comprising seals of heat-insulating material interposed between the collars and between the recesses and the collars.
