Definitions
- This invention relates to a combined electrically heatable converter portion and a "light-off" converter portion in a single outer housing. It is characterized by means for electrically insulating the core from the outer housing. It has been found that the core element, which is heated electrically, should not be grounded at the trailing edge, which improves power utilization and prevents short circuiting.
- This invention is useful in carrying out chemical reactions, e.g., oxidation or reduction, especially those which utilize a catalyst.
- a "light-off" converter portion is one in which reaction, e.g., oxidation, is at least begun, the fluid passing therethrough having been preheated in the electrically heatable converter portion to the temperature at which reaction is initiated and wherein the reaction carried out at least partially to completion.
- Figure 14 shows in diagrammatic form the half shells 198 and 200 to which the distal ends 176 and 177 ( Figure 14) are attached, respectively, for indirect attachment in turn to the appropriate terminals of a voltage source, not shown.
- the inner housing 202 for the "light-off" section of the converter body is a 360 degree circular tubular member with a forward projecting semicircular portion 204. Only the half shells 198 and 200 are attached, respectively, to the positive and negative poles of a voltage source, not shown in Figure 14, and to the ends of the projecting leading edge portions 176 and 177 ( Figure 13) .
- Figures 15, 16 and 17 show in diagrammatic form another layering arrangement of the flat thin metal sheets and the corrugated thin metal sheets.
- Figure 20 shows a developed flat thin metal sheet of different form useful in the manners shown in Figures 16 and 17, for example, but having a configured leading edge portion 270.
- the leading edge portion 270 is defined by a slot 272 having an axially extending notch 274 therein.
- the leading edge portion 270 projects to one side to define a laterally projecting tab or distal end 276 of greater axial dimension than the slot 272.
- the laterally projecting tab 276 is connected to the trailing edge portion 278 by a narrow removable bridge 280. This form also provides for localized heating.
