Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de traitement d'un gaz de combustion du charbon. Dans un mode de réalisation, le procédé comprend l'injection d'un halogène dans un gaz de fumée et l'injection de particules solides de cendre de charbon, alcalines, enrichies au carbone, partiellement brûlées, dans le gaz de fumée en avant d'un dispositif de collecte des particules. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, le procédé comprend l'exposition de particules solides de cendre de charbon, alcalines, enrichies en carbone, partiellement brûlées, à une atmosphère contenant un halogène, et l'injection des particules solides contenant du carbone, alcalines, traitées par l'atmosphère d'halogène, dans le gaz de fumée en avant d'un dispositif de collecte des particules.

Abstract: Les convertisseurs électropneumatiques de pression connus présentent une forte consommation d'air lorsqu'ils ne sont pas alimentés en courant parce que leurs sièges de soupape disposés coaxialement ont tendance à se détacher d'un organe de fermeture de soupape lorsqu'ils sont mis en oscillation depuis l'extérieur. L'invention propose donc un convertisseur électropneumatique de pression dans lequel un organe (31) de fermeture de soupape repose sur le siège de soupape (32) entre la chambre (24) sous pression pilote et le raccordement (22) à la dépression lorsque le convertisseur est en position de repos et non alimenté en courant, l'organe de fermeture de soupape étant situé à distance du deuxième siège de soupape (33) situé entre le raccordement (18) de pression atmosphérique et la chambre pilote (24). On évite ainsi de manière fiable le déclenchement par vibration d'origine externe du raccordement à la dépression et on minimise ainsi la consommation en air.

Abstract: Embodiments of the subject invention relate to a Wingless Hovering Micro Air Vehicle (WHOMAV) and its Power Source Unit (PSU). Embodiments can operate at reasonable power levels for hovering and withstanding expected wind gusts. Embodiments of the subject invention can have a diameter less than 15 cm. Embodiments can have one or more smooth (continuous curvature) surface and can be operated using electromagnetic and electrohydrodynamic principles. The wingless design of specific embodiments can allow operation with no rotating or moving components. Additional embodiments can allow active response to the surrounding flow conditions. The issue of low lift to drag ratio and degradation of airfoil efficiency due to the inability of laminar boundary layers attachment can also be significantly reduced, or eliminated. The electromagnetic force can be generated by applying a pulsed (alternating/rf) voltage between a set of grounded and powered electrodes separated by a polymer insulator, dielectric, or other material with insulating properties.

Abstract: A decoding apparatus that uses a less number of hierarchical layers and a less amount of calculation to obtain a decoded signal having a high quality in terms of audibility. In the decoding apparatus, a first layer decoding part (152) decodes a first layer encoded data. A second layer decoding part (153) decodes a second layer encoded data. An adding part (154) adds together a composite signal outputted from the first layer decoding part (152) and a composite signal outputted from the second layer decoding part (153). A band expanding part (155) uses a band expansion encode data to perform a band expansion of the high frequency components of the composite signal outputted from the first layer decoding part (152). A filter (156) filters the composite signal obtained by the band expanding part (155), thereby extracting the high frequency components. An adding part (157) adds the high frequency components outputted from the filter (156) to the composite signal outputted from the adding part (154), thereby obtaining an ultimate decoded signal.

Abstract: In a chromatic point sensor (100), distance measurements are based on a distance-indicating subset of intensity profile data, which is selected in a manner that varies with a determined peak position index coordinate (PPIC) of the profile data. The PPIC indexes the position a profile data peak. For profile data having a particular PPIC, the distance-indicating subset of the profile data is selected based on particular index-specific data-limiting parameters that are indexed with that same particular PPIC. In various embodiments, each set of index-specific data-limiting parameters indexed with a particular PPIC characterizes a distance-indicating subset of data that was used during distance calibration operations corresponding to profile data having that PPIC. Distance-indicating subsets of data may be compensated to be similar to a corresponding distance-indicating subset of data that was used during calibration operations, regardless of overall intensity variations and detector bias signal level variations.
