Abstract: A gas-expansion cooler assembly has an expansion structure with an expansion orifice and an expansion reservoir in fluid-flow communication with an expansion-orifice outlet. A heat exchanger has a heat-exchanger inlet, and a heat-exchanger outlet in fluid-flow communication with the expansion-orifice inlet. The heat exchanger includes at least two heat-exchanger plates stacked in a facing relationship along an assembly axis. Each heat-exchanger plate includes an in-plane channel lying substantially in a plane perpendicular to the assembly axis. The in-plane channels of the adjacent heat-exchanger plates are in fluid-flow communication with each other and with the expansion-orifice inlet to form a continuous high-pressure fluid-flow path from the heat-exchanger inlet to the expansion-orifice inlet. The heat exchanger further includes an axial channel extending parallel to the assembly axis. The axial channels in the adjacent heat-exchanger plates are in fluid-flow communication with each other and with the expansion reservoir to form a continuous exhaust fluid-flow path from the expansion reservoir to an exhaust port.

Abstract: A novel magnetic resonance imaging method is described, wherein the object to be imaged is segmented into a region of slow variation and into a region of fast variation which defines a restrictive dynamic FOV. The object in the overall FOV is sampled in k-space with a reduction factor. The k-space sampling positions in the region of fast variation are transformed by Fourier Transformation to the spatial domain and are transformed additionally to the temporal-frequency domain. Further the positions in the temporal-frequency domain derived from the sub-sampled positions in k-space are unfolded on the basis of the spatial coil sensitivity profiles of the set of receiving coils, whereas the parts of the temporal-frequency domain related to the region of slow variation are set to zero, and the resulting data in the temporal-frequency domain is Fourier transformed to the temporal domain.

Abstract: During the sterilizing by steam of closed containers (4), filled with a liquid pharmaceutical product (2) and/or air (1) and sealed with a sliding stopper (3), the pressure within the container is measured continuously. The sensor signals are used to form a control value to adjust the back pressure, so that the back pressure and the pressure within the container are equal. The stopper movements are registered by ultrasonics or optically. During the sterilizing by steam of closed containers (4), filled with a liquid pharmaceutical product (2) and/or air (1) and sealed with a sliding stopper (3), the pressure within the container is measured continuously. The measurements are either directly through a link to a pressure sensor (6) within the container, or an external sensor (5) which registers stopper movements through pressure differences between the interior and exterior of the container. The sensor signals are used to form a control value to adjust the back pressure, so that the back pressure and the pressure within the container are equal. The stopper movements are registered by ultrasonics or optically.

Abstract: An apparatus for redirecting radiation including a polarization dependent reflector and an optical component able to transform the polarisation of radiation as it passes through the component. Radiation having a first polarisation component impinging upon the reflector from a source is reflected towards a scene area. Radiation not having this polarisation component passes through the reflector. The radiation having the first polarisation is then transmitted towards a scene via the optical component. As the radiation passes via the optical component, reflects back from the scene and passes again via the optical component, the polarisation is changed to state where it can now pass through the polarisation dependent reflector. The apparatus allows a scene to be illuminated as if the illuminator were positioned at the viewpoint of an imaging system, and so aids uniform illumination of the scene. The apparatus is particularly suited to mm-wave systems, wherein the reflector may comprise a parallel wire grid polarizer, and the optical component may comprise a quarter-wave plate.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un module de dosage à jet libre comprenant une chambre de dosage (78) avec un volume de chambre de dosage, un dispositif d'actionnement (64, 68) jouxtant la chambre de dosage (7), qui lorsqu'il est actionné, réduit le volume de la chambre de dosage d'un volume de déplacement, ainsi qu'une ouverture d'éjection (80) reliée par voie fluidique à la chambre de dosage (78). Un volume d'ajutage est défini par une zone fluidique existant entre la chambre de dosage (78) et l'ouverture d'éjection (80). Le rapport issu des volumes de déplacement et de la somme des volumes de chambre de dosage et des volumes d'ajutage est supérieur au rapport d'une pression de jet libre à la pression atmosphérique, afin de produire un jet libre, y compris en présence d'un milieu gazeux compressible remplissant sensiblement le volume de la chambre de dosage et le volume d'ajutage. A cet effet, la pression du jet libre est la pression requise dans la chambre de dosage, qui suffit amplement pour la surface d'ouverture d'éjection donnée, pour produire l'énergie superficielle requise pour induire un jet libre au niveau de l'ouverture d'éjection.
