Porous tungsten plugs provide even airflow for frictionless bearings used in air bearing supported gyros. The plugs have their outer cylindrical surface sealed by an electron beam process to ensure unidirectional airflow through their exit ends.
Modular porous plate sublimators, provided for each location where heat must be dissipated, conserve the battery power of a space vehicle by eliminating the coolant pump. The sublimator requires only a water supply for coolant.
Performance characteristics of underslung vertical wedge inlet with porous suction at Mach numbers of 0.63 and 1.5 to 2.0
Self-lubricating composites of porous nickel and nickel-chromium alloy impregnated with a barium fluoride-calcium fluoride eutectic, and a thin film of solid lubricant increase wear life of load bearing surfaces.
Porous copper mandrels prevent uneven deformation of beryllium machining blanks. The beryllium powder is arranged around these mandrels and hot isostatically pressed to form the blanks. The mandrels are then removed by leaching.

Pores of the material were plugged with dust particles suspended in water. The plugging material used was a standard test dust prepared as a slurry in distilled water. This technique provides a permanent high-integrity seal for porous material without affecting its physical properties, yet permitting pressure testing to verify structural adequacy.
