Abstract: [Object] To provide a signal processing method, a signal processing apparatus, and a Coriolis flowmeter, which may always perform measurement with constant precision and performs phase measurement with high filtering performance and a small amount of computation even when a temperature of a fluid to be measured changes, air bubbles are mixed into the fluid to be measured, or the fluid to be measured rapidly changes from a gas to a liquid.   [Solving Means] In a Coriolis flowmeter, a phase difference and/or a vibration frequency proportional to a Coriolis force acting on at least one flow tube or a pair of flow tubes are/is detected, to thereby obtain a mass flow rate and/or density of the fluid to be measured. The Coriolis flowmeter includes A/D converters for converting, into digital signals, analog signals output from velocity sensors or acceleration sensors which are a pair of vibration detection sensors, a pair of quadrature frequency modulators for performing frequency conversion on the digital signals which correspond to the pair of vibration detection sensors, a frequency measurement unit for measuring a frequency based on one digital signal output from the pair of vibration detection sensors, and a transmitter for generating a frequency signal corresponding to .theta. (1-1/N) of a digital signal of the frequency. A phase difference is obtained based on the signals generated by the quadrature frequency modulators.

Abstract: A method for detecting an organic carbonyl species involves exposing a metal oxide-free film of a polyaniline to an environment suspected of containing an organic carbonyl species, detecting a change in electrical conductivity and/or an optical or luminescent property of the polyaniline, and, correlating the change in electrical conductivity and/or optical or luminescent property to a presence of the organic carbonyl species in the environment. Further, sensors for organic carbonyl species are disclosed having a metal oxide-free film of a polyaniline supported on an electrically insulating substrate. The method and sensors provide a good balance between response time and sensitivity, being considerably faster than metal oxide and metal oxide/polymer based sensors, while having greater sensitivity than other polymer-based sensors.

Abstract: The invention relates to an aerofoil connection 12, 15 on a fuselage airframe 1, 14 of an aircraft, in particular a high-wing aircraft, comprising a plurality of double-jointed coupling members 8-11, 16-21. According to the invention, in each case at least two z-coupling members 8, 11, 16, 17 extending substantially parallel to a vertical axis of the aircraft and in each case at least two xz-coupling members 9, 10, 20, 21 are arranged in the region of two longitudinal edges 4, 5 of a fuselage airframe recess 3, wherein the xz-coupling members 9, 10, 20, 21 are configured in each case for a first maximum of a load in the event of a crash and of a load in normal flight operation parallel to a longitudinal axis (x) of the aircraft, and for a second maximum of a load in the event of a crash and of a load in normal flight operation parallel to the vertical axis (z). The xz-coupling members are capable of absorbing force components parallel to the x-axis, i.e. parallel to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft, as well as force components which arise parallel to the z-axis, so that separate z-coupling members are not required for force components in the z-direction and weight is reduced.  Furthermore, in an alternative embodiment, predefined weakened zones 59 are provided in the straps 51, 52, 53 of the front xz-coupling members 9, 10, 20, 21, 40 which, in the event of a crash, allow force to be transferred via the xz-fuselage airframe bearing 26, 41 and the xz-aerofoil bearing by positive locking, at least in regions, between the two xz-bearings 26, 27, 41, 42. In this case, it is possible to achieve a further weight reduction as a result of a lighter configuration of the xz-bearings 26, 27, 41, 42 and of the bolts.

Abstract: A housing containing a reservoir can be mounted to receive water from an outlet port of a humidifier system. A pump having a pump inlet hydraulically connected to the reservoir volume and a pump outlet adapted to connect to an inlet port on the humidifier system can be controlled to deliver water to the humidifier based on a control signal received at a processor. The reservoir can be flushed based on one or more of an elapsed operating time since the last flush and a total time since the last flush. Flushing can be performed using a re-fill port adapted to receive fresh water from an external water source and draining process that can include creating a siphoning action that causes the water to drain from the reservoir volume. Flow of fresh water into the re-fill port can also be controlled to maintain a proper working water level in the reservoir volume. Related systems, apparatus, methods, and/or articles are also described.

Abstract: The present application relates to separation processes and systems and more specifically to hybrid carbon dioxide separation processes. In one embodiment, the system for the separation or removal of carbon dioxide comprises an apparatus (11) for a selective separation of carbon dioxide (CO2) from flue gas - typically exhaust gases, syngas or natural gas streams - using one or more so-called CO2 reverse selective membrane(s) in the first separation unit (11) to enrich a feed gas stream (10) which con-tains carbon dioxide with CO2, and by separating other constituents of the gas stream. Thus, the feed gas stream is separated in the first separation unit by CO2-reverse-selective separation into a CO2-lean gas stream (12) and a CO2-enriched gas stream (13). The CO2-enriched gas stream (13) is fed to a second separation unit which is a CO2-selective separation unit (14). The second separa-tion results in a purified CO2-rich gas stream (15) and a remaining CO2-lean gas stream (16).
