Abstract: A flow directing element, such as a vane for a turbine engine compressor, has a variable chord to improve compressor surge margin without compromising compressor efficiency. The vane has an airfoil section 70 with a leading edge 80, a trailing edge 82, a root 84 and a tip 88. The chord of the airfoil generally increases from a first value at the root to a second larger value at a part span location 110 intermediate the root and the tip so that when the airfoil is installed in a compressor, the location of the trailing edge becomes closer to the compressor discharge as the spanwise distance from the root increases. The chord is generally constant from the part span location to the tip.

Abstract: The method involves using a digitiser (18) to form a speech signal into successive frames divided into typically 4 subframes of 40 samples of 16 bits. A coder (16) delivers a binary sequence at a substantially slower rate to a channel encoder (22), introducing error detection and/or correction bits. Each frame is analysed by short-term linear prediction (26) to determine coeffts. of a short-term synthesis filter. For each subframe, an excitation sequence is determined which after filtering produces a synthetic signal representing the speech. The subframe is divided into segments corresp. to pulses of stochastic excitation (40), and the positions of these pulses are found so that there is at most one in each segment.

1,000 - 200,000. 
     The fiber of the invention is preferably prepared by
impregnating or immersing a never-dried wet spun acrylic
fiber with an aqueous solution of a water soluble
polyamine, and heat treating the impregnated fiber at a
temperature between 100 and 180°C. A textile article
made from the deodorizing fiber of the invention in
combination with a deodorizing fiber having an anionic

Title: Systeme d'isolation electrique pour hautes temperatures
Inventor: OKEY DAVID W
IPC: H01F41/12
Filed: 1996-02-14
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système d'isolation électrique pour hautes températures obtenu par formation d'un enroulement dans un dispositif électrique, constitué d'un conducteur prérevêtu d'une première couche d'au moins une matière inorganique partiellement durcie. Une seconde couche de matière inorganique est appliquée, soit pendant soit juste avant la formation de l'enroulement, sur la première couche afin d'obturer les éventuelles fissures de la première couche. Le revêtement électroisolant obtenu est durci après le processus de formage, essentiellement à température ambiante. Le système d'isolation obtenu est par conséquent totalement inorganique, et sa production ne nécessite pas l'utilisation d'agents organiques, ou le chauffage à des températures élevées afin de durcir le revêtement ou de provoquer une pyrolyse et/ou une volatilisation des éléments organiques, caractérisant les systèmes d'isolation électrique actuels. En outre, étant donné qu'aucun agent organique n'est utilisé soit dans la production soit dans le fonctionnement du système d'isolation, le revêtement résultant est exempt de carbone résiduel. Le problème de la résistance diélectrique amoindrie, provoqué par le carbone résiduel, qui a entravé certaines tentatives antérieures de mise au point de systèmes d'isolation à hautes températures à base de polymère, est par conséquent résolu. Le fait de n'utiliser que des matières organiques permet d'obtenir un système d'isolation capable de fonctionner de façon satisfaisante, pendant des durées prolongées, à des températures dépassant 500 °F.

Abstract: A rotor 1 for an electrical machine comprises a plurality of generally equi-angularly spaced magnets 13. The rotor further comprises at least one fan blade 17, 19. In a preferred embodiment, the blades 17, 19 are arranged in pairs between respective magnets 13. The magnets may be secured to a surface of the rotor by a mechanical means in the form of projections from the surface, e.g. forming part of the fan blades. Air enters the rota through the centre and is impelled radially outwards by the fan blades so as to cool the magnets. Air leaves the rotor at its circumference. Also described is an electrical machine comprising at least one concentrically mounted diffuser disc (102 - Figs. 7 to 13) having a plurality of circumferential equi-angularly spaced diffuser fins (110) mounted thereon. The diffuser fins act to diffuse cooling air after it has left the rotor. This converts velocity energy into pressure, leads to a greater pumping efficiency and hence more air flow for a given rota speed. <IMAGE>
