Title: Fault monitoring system for optical fiber communication systems
IPC: H04B10/07
Filed: 1988-07-21
Abstract: A fault monitoring system for optical fiber communication system having a bidirectional optical amplifier between first and second optical fiber transmission lines. An optical monitoring signal of a first frequency different from frequencies of communication signal light of the optical fiber communication system is applied to the first input/output port of the bidirectional optical amplifier through the first optical fiber transmission line and then branched through a first optical filter passing therethrough of the first frequency to apply the branched optical monitoring signal of the first frequency to the second input/output port of the bidirectional amplifier. Another optical monitoring signal of a second frequency different from the first frequency and frequencies of the communication signal light is applied to the second input/output port of the bidirectional optical amplifier through the second optical transmission line and then branched through a second optical filter passing therethrough of the second frequency to apply the branched optical monitoring signal of the second frequency to the first input/output port of the bidirectional amplifier. A fault of the bidirectional amplifier can be detected by monitoring the optical monitoring signals of the first frequency and of the second frequency at respective ends of the first optical fiber transmission line and the second optical fiber transmission line.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB89/00846 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 25, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 25, 1991 PCT Filed Jul. 25, 1989 PCT Pub. No. WO90/01203 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 8, 1990.A speech synthesizer (3) produces prompts in the voice of a native speaker of a language to be learned to which the student replies or imitates. A phrase recognizer (1) employs keyword recognition to generate from the student's prompted response an original speech template spoken by the student. Thereafter, interactive dialogue takes place. The student's progress in that dialogue is monitored by measuring the deviation of the student's current speech from his original speech template. When this deviation is sufficiently large so that the recognizer (1) no longer recognizes what the student is saying, the system retrains and updates the student's speech template. In another embodiment, the system includes a display which shows the native speaker's mouth shape while the words to be imitated are spoken by the speech synthesizer (3). Also provided are a video pick-up and analyzer for analyzing the shapes of the student's mouth to give the student visual feedback.
Patent GB-9018243-D0 (GB)
Title: Obtaining vtol by blowing air-jets over aircraft surfaces
IPC: B63G8/14
Filed: 1990-08-20
Abstract: By blowing a blanket of air over an air vehicle's or craft's wings or top surfaces, the static pressure over the wings or top surfaces decreases (Bernouli's theorem). With the pressure over the vehicle's or craft's wings or top surfaces decreased sufficiently the air pressure underneath the vehicle or craft pushes it upwards. Thus vehicles or crafts using the above principle can take off and land vertically. Blowing air over appropriate surfaces of the vehicles or crafts enables the air pressure to propel or push the said vehicles or crafts forward or in any direction. Also applicable to under water craft, blowing water over the upper surfaces. <IMAGE>

Title: Process for preparing emulsions that are polymerizable to absorbent foam materials
Inventor: DESMARAIS THOMAS ALLEN
IPC: C08F/
Filed: 1992-08-07
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the continuous preparation of high internal phase emulsions which are suitable for subsequent polymerization into polymeric foam materials that, upon dewatering, act as absorbents for aqueous body fluids. The process involves continuous introduction of a certain type of monomer-containing oil phase and a certain type of electrolyte-containing water phase into a dynamic mixing zone at relatively low water to oil phase ratios. Flow rates are then steadily adjusted to increase the water to oil ratio of the streams fed to the dynamic mixing zone while subjecting the dynamic mixing zone contents to shear agitation which is sufficient to thereby form a high internal phase emulsion that, upon subsequent polymerization, provides a foam having an average cell size of from about 5 to 100 microns. The formation of such a stable high internal phase emulsion is completed by feeding the contents of the dynamic mixing zone to and through a static mixing zone.
Patent HU-9503617-D0 (HU)
Title: Raw gas burner and process for burning oxygenic constituents in process gas
Inventor: RUHL ANDREAS
IPC: F23D14/62
Filed: 1995-12-15
Abstract: Raw gas burner (1) that maximizes fuel efficiency of the burner, minimizes residence time and reduces or eliminates flame contact with the process air or gas in order to minimize NOx formation. Process air flow, such as from the cold side of a heat exchanger associated with thermal oxidizer apparatus (100), is directed into and around the burner. The amount of process air flowing into the burner is regulated based upon the pressure drop created by the burner assembly. The pressure drop is, in turn, regulated by one or more of an external damper assembly, an internal damper assembly, and movement of the burner relative to the apparatus in which it is mounted. To ensure thorough mixing of the fuel and process air, process air entering the burner is caused to spin by the use of a swirl generator (10). The fuel/process air mixture proceeds into the combustion section (50) of the burner, where the swirling flow is caused to recirculate to ensure complete combustion of the fuel in the combustion chamber. The mixture of burned fuel and process gas transfers its energy flamelessly to the process gas circulating outside the burner combustion chamber, and is hot enough to ignite the process gas there, which then burns separately from the burner combustion chamber, such as in the main combustion enclosure (114) of the thermal post-combustion device.

Title: Method and apparatus of converting heat to useful energy
Inventor: KALINA ALEXANDER I
IPC: F01K25/00
Filed: 1999-07-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus for implementing a thermodynamic cycle. A heated gaseous working stream including a low boiling point component and a higher boiling point component is separated (S), and the low boiling point component is expanded (T) to transform the energy of the stream into useable form and to provide an expanded relatively rich stream (31). This expanded rich stream (31) is then split into two streams, one (33) of which is expanded further to obtain further energy, resulting in a spent stream (34), the other (32) of which is extracted. The lean expanded stream (7) and the spent rich stream (34) are then combined in a regenerating subsystem with the extracted stream (32) to reproduce the working stream, which is then efficiently heated in a heater (HE-5) to provide the heated gaseous working stream that is separated.
