A method is provided involving a gas turbine engine system. The method includes configuring a plug within a fluid passage in the gas turbine engine system, where the plug is between first and second portions of the fluid passage. Material is removed from an interior surface of the fluid passage in the first portion of the fluid passage to provide removed material, where the plug substantially prevents the removed material from entering the second portion of the fluid passage. The removed material is directed out of the fluid passage. The plug is removed from the fluid passage.

A method for reducing emissions from a vessel includes isolating the vessel from a downstream fluid flow line, purging a fluid from the vessel by injecting purging media into the vessel to push the fluid through a check valve of a vent tubing and into the downstream fluid flow line, and draining the purging media from the vessel. A first end of the vent tubing is coupled to the housing of the vessel, and a second end of the vent tubing is coupled to the downstream fluid flow line. Further, the vent tubing includes a check valve disposed between the first end and the second end, and the check valve is configured to allow fluid to flow from the housing to the downstream fluid flow line.

A method of cleaning a cylinder head using pressurized fluid and a tooling assembly for the same includes a jet ignition insert attached to a spark plug well defined by the cylinder head. The insert defines an opening in fluid communication with the spark plug well. The insert includes an end wall attached to the insert distal end to close one end of the opening and the end wall defines holes. The tooling assembly includes a tool configured to clean the insert. A first engagement surface of the insert and a second engagement surface of the tool engage each other to form a seal that surrounds the holes of the insert such that the pressurized fluid is directed through the holes and into the opening of the insert during the first operation procedure of the tooling assembly to flush debris out of the holes of the insert.

The invention relates, inter alia, to a method for setting a cleaning operation of an apparatus for filling containers with a filling material. The apparatus has several filling stations, each having a filling material path, a filling material path valve arranged in the corresponding filling material path, and a flow meter arranged to measure a flow rate through the corresponding filling material path. A cleaning medium is passed through at least some of the filling material paths by releasing at least some of the filling material paths by opening the corresponding filling material path valves. Cleaning medium flow rates through the released filling material paths are measured by the corresponding flow meters. At least one valve actuation parameter of the cleaning operation of the apparatus is set depending on the measured cleaning medium flow rates.

Methods, apparatus, and devices for fluid flushing systems to remove foreign object debris (FOD) are provided. These methods and devices are designed to flush and transport FOD away from machined parts. Foreign object debris refers to any unintended material such as tiny particles, chips that enters a part during a manufacturing process. FOD can have significant effects, compromising the quality and functionality of manufactured items. This can lead to costly consequences such as rework, scrapped parts, and production delays. FOD prevention is essential for improving safety, reliability, and efficiency.
