Abstract

1,038,314. Valves. COMPAGNIE GENERALE D'ELECTRICITE. May 20, 1963 [May 18, 1962], No. 20050/63. Heading F2V. [Also in Divisions G1 and H2] A valve used to control the flow of a graphite/ oil paste used as a consumable electrode in a magnetohydrodynamic generator (see Division H2) comprises a ring-like rubber washer 59 which fits closely against the paste carrying tubes 55, 56 at 61 and can be expanded by air pressure at 62 to restrict the flow in the tubes. The metal tubes are separated by an insulating ring 57, e.g. of P.T.F.E.
