次の英文を和訳しなさい
Generally speaking, it is known that under certain conditions,aluminum reacts with water to generate hydrogen and heat. It is also
known, however, that this type of reaction is not sustainable atambient temperature. It is believed that a protective oxide layer
forms on a metal surface in contact with water at ambient
temperature and hinders the reaction. Therefore, it has been
accepted by those skilled in the art that the use of aluminum in areaction with water to generate hydrogen gas requires that theprotective oxide layer is efficiently and continuously removed, andthat the reaction is kept at an elevated temperature.
A number of hydrogen generators have been developed in the past. The
following patent documents constitute a good inventory of the devices
and methods of the prior art in the field of hydrogen gas generation
using the reaction of aluminum or alloys of aluminum with water.
U.S. Pat. No. 909,536 issued on Jan. 12, 1909, and U.S. Pat.
No. 934,036 issued on Sep. 14, 1909, both issued to G. F. Brindley etal. These documents disclose several compositions for generatinghydrogen. The compositions comprise any metal which can form anhydroxide when it is brought into contact with a solution of asuitable hydroxide.

次の英文を和訳しなさい。
A power supply of the invention for use with outdoor lighting systems
will be described. In the following description numerous specificdetails are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of thepresent invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in
the art that the present invention may be practiced without these
specific details. In other instances, well known elements, such astransformers and logic gates, have not been described in detail inorder to not unnecessarily obscure the present invention.
Referring first to FIG.1 , the power supply may be connected to acontroller 2. In the preferred embodiment, the controller will control
the operation of the power supply. However, the power supply may beoperated without the controller 2. Power is supplied to the power
supply 1 and controller 2 through power cords 4.

Referring next to FIG. 2, a brief description of the elements ofthe present invention and their operation will be provided. Powerenters the power supply through power cord 4. The preferred
embodiment accepts standard household current of 120VAC. This
input signal is full wave rectified by rectifier 150 andfiltered to provide a DC signal to the switcher 151 and the low
voltage power supply 153.
