A high-pressure wear resistant cylinder that utilizes a high-pressure field for strength is an economical method of, or device for, handling very high pressures and the pumping of abrasive and corrosive fluids. The economic considerations are so favorable, that the invention may be considered a replacement part. The invention is suitable for a variety of applications, particularly a reciprocating flow work exchanger in the well stimulation or hydraulic fracturing industry. Using a high pressure field to strengthen the external surface (outside) of a pipe that is precision honed and plated or sleeved internally (inside), it is now possible to construct various high pressure machines in a relatively inexpensive manner. This invention makes it possible to use pipe with internal operating pressures greater than their nominal operating pressure ratings permit. This invention will be used in various high pressure piping and machinery applications.

Thermal interfaces and methods include an array of carbon nanotubes aligned substantively perpendicularly from a substrate. One method includes arranging metal catalyst particles with a particular ligand on a fluid surface of a Langmuir-Blodgett trough. This forms uniformly spaced particles with spacing based on the particular ligand. The uniformly spaced metal catalyst particles are deposited on a substrate and carbon nanotubes are grown on the particles using chemical vapor deposition. A highly efficient thermal interface can be produced with a carbon nanotube packing ratio greater than fifty percent and used in a thermal switch or other device. In some methods, commercially available nanotubes are condensed on a substrate using carbon nanotubes with terminal carboxylic acids in solution and an amine monolayer on the substrate. Pretreatment of the nanotubes in a switch by applying heavy pressure between two surfaces results in good thermal conductivity between those surfaces at smaller operating pressures.

An in situ reservoir recovery process consisting of a horizontal injection well and a horizontal production well to extract bitumen or heavy oil from a reservoir. The process consists of a first phase operated at high-pressure in which steam, hydrocarbon solvent and non-condensable gases are injected into the reservoir and a second phase in which the injected fluids are transitioned to a high content of solvent and non-condensable gas and a reduced amount of steam to maintain a warm zone in the neighbourhood of the injection and production wells. The steam injection is sufficient to promote vapor transport of the solvent into the vapor depletion chamber and maintain the process at elevated temperatures in order to maintain low fluid viscosities in the production wellbore and to achieve preferred phase behaviour of the solvent hydrocarbon and the heavy oil or bitumen. The operating pressure of the process is controlled to prevent losses of the solvent hydrocarbon to the formation and to aid in solvent production to the production well in order for future re-cycling.

It is in vacuum state between glass heat pipe and glass outer tube as well as inside glass heat pipe. Fusing seals both of heat pipe and outer tube. Heat absorption coating is coated on external wall, and working medium is filled inside heat pipe. Quantity of working medium filled is 0.1-0.5%V, where V is cubage of heat pipe. Based on theory of applied thermodynamics, quantity of working medium is selected scientifically. When temp reaches a critical temperature, all working medium is turned to vapor phase. If temp rises continuously, the pressure is raised according to rule of vapor phase, reducing pressure inside the heat pipe under high temp so as to solve issue of cracking glass heat pipe caused by solarizing empty glass heat pipe. Adsorption material is added inside heat pipe in order to ensure restarting glass heat pipe rapidly.
