    Abstract: A sleeve shaft includes an inlay. A fluid can flow through the sleeve shaft along an axial direction which is parallel to a main extension of the sleeve shaft. The inlay includes a first wall section and the inlay is inserted at least in part into the sleeve shaft such that the inlay together with a first area of an inner surface of the sleeve shaft encloses a volume domain, which volume domain is limited in the axial direction by a limiting element comprised by the inlay. The first area of the inner surface of the sleeve shaft is an inner surface of a first section of the sleeve shaft, the first section having an inner diameter which is larger than an inner diameter of a further section of the sleeve shaft that follows the first section in a direction antiparallel to the axial direction.

    Abstract: A glass tube element having hollow cylindrical section that has a shell enclosing a lumen and extends along a main extension and an optical delay of a light ray. The shell has a surface facing away from the lumen. The optical delay has values that all fall within a range having a size of between 3 and 30 nm. The optical delay being an optical measurement of the glass tube element by the light ray extending along a measurement path in a direction of perpendicular to the main extension and tangent to a surface of the shell. The measurement path touches the surface for different measurements at different positions each having a different azimuth angle within a cylindrical coordinate system fixedly attached to the glass tube element and having an origin on a center axis of the glass tube element.

    Abstract: At least one glass tube has an azimuthal wall thickness deviation WTD of not more than 6.0%, the azimuthal wall thickness deviation being determined based on a lowest wall thickness value and a highest wall thickness value measured within a cross-section of the at least one glass tube, the azimuthal wall thickness deviation WTD being calculated according to the following formula: W ⁢ ⁢ T ⁢ ⁢ D = 100 - ( lowest ⁢ ⁢ wall ⁢ ⁢ thickness ⁢ ⁢ value highest ⁢ ⁢ wall ⁢ ⁢ thickness ⁢ ⁢ value * 100 ) ⁢ ⁢ % .

    Abstract: A glass tube element having a hollow cylindrical section with a shell having an outer diameter is provided. A first ratio is a difference value to a mean value. The difference value is a difference of a minimal and maximal value of the outer diameter. The mean value is a mean of the minimal and maximal values. A sub-section having a start, an end, and a distance of 1 meter measured along a straight line from the start to the end and intersecting with a center axis of the sub-section at the start and the end. The sub-section having, for every point of the center axis, a shortest distance to the straight line. A second ratio of a specific distance to 1 meter, the specific distance being defined as a largest of all shortest distances. A product of the first and second ratio is smaller than 4×10−6.

    Abstract: A glass rod includes: a glass including a glass composition, wherein the total relative length variation of the semi-major axis tlvmajor is determined as an absolute difference between (a) a smallest semi-major axis length Imajor(n) and (b) a largest semi-major axis length Imajor(n), normalized by the average semi-major axis length lmajor(a); wherein the 50 equidistant cross-sections are positioned along the length lrod of the glass rod, starting at a position of 0.01*lrod as a first position and employing a plurality of additive increments of 0.02*lrod for each subsequent position; wherein the relative local area variation lav is determined as an absolute difference between (c) a cross-sectional area that has the largest semi-major axis length Imajor(n) and (d) an average value of the cross-sectional areas, normalized by an average value of the cross-sectional areas; wherein the quality index (tlvmajor+lav) is 0.090 or less.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the production of a tube having, in sections, a non-circular profile by deforming, comprising: a) providing a tube, which has a circular initial profile; b) conveying the tube in a hot, malleable state through a nip, which is formed by squeezing rollers and has a first nip width, which is larger than or equal to an outer dimension of the initial profile; c) adjusting the squeezing rollers for setting a second nip width, which is smaller than the outer dimension of the initial profile, and deforming the initial profile in said hot, malleable state for obtaining said non-circular cross section; and d) adjusting the squeezing rollers for setting a third nip width, which is larger than or equal to the outer dimension of the initial profile, and severing said tube in a region having a circular cross section; so that respective end portions of said tube have a circular cross section According to the invention, the tubes can be connected reliably with connecting-members or other tubes via the end portions having the circular profile using proven tube connection technologies. At the same time there is at least one central section having a non-circular cross section which is of advantage, for example for applications in photobioreactors.
