Title: Impingement and film cooling for gas turbine combustor walls
Inventor: MCCALDON KIAN
IPC: F23R3/54
Filed: 1999-05-25
Granted: 2007-07-24
Abstract: The invention provides a cold combustor wall for lining the hot combustor wall of a gas turbine engine, disposed at a distance from the outer surface of the hot combustor wall. Improved cooling of the the hot combustor wall results from the addition of impingement cooling air injected through orifices in the cold combustion wall directed at the hot combustion wall. The cold combustor wall has an outer surface in contact with cool compressed air and includes a pattern of air impingement inlet orifices through the cold combustor wall for conducting compressed air from the outer surface of the cold combustor wall in compressed air jets directed at the outer surface of the hot combustor wall. The provision of a cold combustor wall improves conventional air film cooling by adding impingement cooling and reusing the air after impingement to form the conventional air film. The invention is equally applicable to hot combustor walls using conventional effusion cooling and splash louver cooling film systems as well.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for obtaining ammonia from waste wate r containing NH3, at least one acid gas (CO2, H2S) and inert gases. The waste water is first led through a precleaning column and then at least partially into a complete stripping column. The product of the complete stripping column is cooled in a condenser and an aqueous condensate containing NH3, coming from the condenser, is conveyed to an NH3-stripping column. The top product of the NH 3- stripping column is brought into direct contact with circulating aqueous condensate containing NH3 in a wash column and NH3 is obtained from the top product of the wash column. A part of the bottom product of the wash column is returned to the NH3-stripping column. The temperature in the precleaning column is adjusted to below 30 to 200.degree.C in the bottom area, a partial flow of the waste wat er is provided into the top area of the precleaning column, and a second partial flow of th e waste water is guided into the precleaning column below the first partial flow. At least 80% of the NH3 from the complete stripping column is condensed in the condenser. A waste water flow is withdrawn from the complete stripping colum n, and at least part of it is cooled to temperatures of 10 to 60.degree.C. The cooled flow of waste water is then guided into the top area of the precleaning column.</SDO AB>

Title: Bandwidth dependent cell level selection
Inventor: LAGNEBORG JOHAN
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1999-10-29
Granted: 2011-08-16
Abstract: In a cellular telecommunications system in which a geographic area is divided into a hierarchical cell structure such that geographically small but high bandwidth-available cells are located in geographically larger cells of less bandwidth-availability, mobile station connections are made based on the bandwidth requirements of the mobile stations together with the likelihood of mobility of the mobile station within the cell structure.   For mobile stations that have low bandwidth requirements and are highly mobile (such as telephones) the mobile stations are connected to cells at a cell layer having relatively large geographical areas yet low bandwidth-availability. On the other hand, for mobile stations with high bandwidth requirements, the mobile stations are connected to geographically small cells with high bandwidth-availability. In this way, mobile stations with high bandwidth requirements yet low mobility can obtain the high bandwidths needed for their communications, while mobile stations with lower bandwidth requirements yet high mobility can move through the cell arrangement while minimizing the number of required handoffs.

Abstract: A method, and apparatus for practicing the method, for eliminating the necessity for manually dialing, on a wireless telephone, a local area code as a prefix to a call within the same area code in telephone systems in which such action is a requirement. Before a calling party institutes a call on a cellular telephone, the area code is semi-permanently stored in the cellular telephone. During the dialing process, after the seventh digit has been dialed and before an eighth digit has been dialed, a determination is made as to whether the "send" button has been actuated. If so, then the stored area code is prefixed to the seven dialed digits, and the resulting ten digit number is transmitted. If not, then the dialing continues until the "send" button is actuated at which time the fully dialed number is transmitted. Typically, the latter condition indicates that a long distance call is in process. Thus, in a preferred embodiment, a determination is made that eleven digits have been dialed, and those eleven digits are transmitted. Because a cellular telephone is portable by nature, provision is made to update the automatically-prefixed area code when the cellular telephone is moved to a different area code.

Abstract: A reservoir simulator first estimates rock displacement parameters (u, v, an d w) representing rock movement in the x, y, and z directions. When the rock displacement parameters (u, v, w) are determined, ".epsilon.x,y,z" (the X,Y,Z elongation strains) and ".gamma.xy,yz,zx" (the shear strains) are determined since ".epsilon.x,y,z" and ".gamma.xy,yz,zx" are function of "u", "v", and "w". When ".epsilon.x,y, z" and ".gamma.xy,yz,zx" are determined. ".sigma.x,y,z" (the elastic normal rock stress in x,y,z directions) and ".tau.xy,yz,xz" (the elastic shear stress) are determined since ".sigma.x,y,z" and ".tau.xy,yz,xz" are a function of ".epsilon.x,y,z" and ".gamma.xy,yz,zx". When ".sigma.x,y,z" and ".tau.xy,yz,xz" are determined, t he rock momentum balance differential equations can be solved, since these equations are a function o f ".sigma.x,y,z" and ".tau.xy yz,xz". When any residuals are substantially equal to zero, the estimated rock displacement parameters (u, v, and w) will represent accurate rock displacement parameters for the reservoir. When the rock momentum balance differential equations are solved, the rock displacement parameters (u, v, w), at an advanced time, are known. These rock displacement parameters (u, v, w) represent and characterize a subsidence in a seabed floor because subsidence will result from rock movement; and rock movement will result from a continual withdrawal of oil or other hydrocarbon deposits or other fluids such as water over a period of time fro m an Earth formation.
