	Alfa Laval History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Gustaf De Laval is born in the province of Dalarna, Sweden.
		Gustaf de Laval was clearly convinced of the economic possibilities of his idea and, in order to exploit his invention of the continuously operating milk separator, he took steps to find a suitable partner.
		Gustaf de Laval’s stake was his invention while Oscar Lamm invested 4,000 Swedish crowns.

	De Laval nozzle - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		A de Laval nozzle (or convergent-divergent nozzle, CD nozzle or con-di nozzle) is a tube that is pinched in the middle, making an hourglass-shape.
		The nozzle was developed by Swedish inventor Gustaf de Laval in the 19th century.
		A de Laval nozzle, then, functions by narrowing down to a "throat" at which point the gas flow is moving at the speed of sound, and then widening again to further accelerate the speed of the gas.

		De Laval was demonstrating the work of this machine to some of his friends one day, when one of those present remarked that as an experiment it, was very interesting.
		Within a, few weeks after making his first separator, De Laval had so improved his machine that it, would separate 35 gallons of milk.at a, time, but it was not until he made a machine thru which the milk flow was continuous that the invention was really a success.
		Though De Laval was a great inventor in other fields as well as dairying and a tireless worker in his chosen field of engineering, it is said that he was a poor business man and throughout his whole life was never in good financial circumstances.

	History - Gustaf Dalén
		Gustaf Dalén was AGA's most influential president and the inventor of epoch-making lighthouse technology products including the flashing apparatus, the sun valve, the AGA compound and the Dalén mixer.
		He was not regarded as a talented scholar and although he was constantly inventing new gadgets, his teacher said "Gustaf is no use for anything." As a boy who found it difficult to get up in the mornings, Gustaf Dalén invented a "bed roller" which both made the coffee and switched on the light.
		Gustaf Dalén who was himself passionately interested in aviation became a partner in Enoch Thulin's aircraft factory in Landskrona during World War I. But the market disappeared after the war and the factory was closed down after Thulin had crashed.

		Carl Gustav Patrik de Laval (1845-1913) was an engineer from a French family that had settled in Sweden.
		De Laval was a prolific inventor who had ideas in almost every field of engineering, but he is best known for his work in milk production and the separation of cream from milk.
		The history of the eventual parent group Alfa Laval AB is rather complex, and the name changed to Tetra Laval after it was bought by Tetra Pak in 1990, but then was re-established on the stock exchange in 2002.
