Abstract: The present invention provides, with reference to FIG. 1, an internal combustion engine (10) having a fuel injector which comprises a sprung piston (55) or a resilient diaphragm piston (8155) and an electrical coil (57, 8158) for displacing the piston (55, 8155). The piston draws fuel into and expels fuel from a pumping chamber (52, 8152). The number of operations of the injector per engine cycle is controlled by an electronic controller (23, 8159) to control the quality of fuel delivered per cycle to a combustion chamber. A voltage measured in the coil (52, 8158) by movement of the piston under action of the spring or due to its own resilience is used to give an indication of vapor pressure of the fuel. A device akin to the injector can be used to draw fuel from a pipeline to measure the vapor pressure of the fluid.

Abstract: A sputtering apparatus is provided n which a method of magnetically enhanced sputtering an electrically-conductive material onto interior surfaces of a trench can be performed, which includes providing a magnetic field adjacent to a target formed at least in part from the electrically-conductive material, and applying a DC voltage between an anode and the target as a plurality of pulses. A high-frequency signal is applied to the pedestal supporting the semiconductor substrate to generate a self-bias field adjacent to the semiconductor substrate. The high-frequency signal is applied to the pedestal in pulses, during periods of time that overlap with the periods during which the DC voltage pulses are applied. The periods of time that the high-frequency signals are applied include a duration that extends beyond termination of the DC voltage pulse applied between the anode and the target. During each DC voltage pulse the electrically-conductive material is sputter deposited onto the side walls of the trench formed in the semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: When insufficient traffic is present in the network to maintain synchronization in this manner, other methods must be used. One approach involves making direct measurements of the timing between base stations (602, 604). This is accomplished in one of two ways. The base may interrupt its transmissions on all sectors for a short interval during which it determines the time of arrival of signals from other base stations (602, 604). Given knowledge of the other base station locations, time errors relative to all other base stations (602, 604) may be derived. Alternatively, the base may send a short signal at high power in the mobile transmit band. This time-of-arrival of this signal is measured by the surrounding base stations and the time errors between pairs of base stations are computed. In some cases, a base station (602, 604) may be isolated sufficiently from all other base stations in the network such that direct base-to-base measurement is not viable. In this case, a fixed mobile (606) is placed at a location in the handoff region between the isolated cell and another cell in the network. The fixed mobile (606) either performs measurements of base station pilots on command of the base and reports the timing information, or sends a burst transmission at a specified time and power level to be measured by the base stations.

Abstract: A method for performing volume replication using a unified architecture is provided. Each volume has an exclusive volume log table (VLT) and an exclusive volume block update table (VBUT). The VLT is mainly used for recording the relationship between two volumes of a mirroring pair, and the VBUT is used for tracking the state of each data block of the volume itself. By means of the cross operations and applications between the VLT and the VBUT, various volume replication processes such as volume copying and volume mirroring can be enabled under a unified architecture. Specifically, for each volume, different replication relationships with other volumes can be handled merely by administering its two exclusive tables. Hence, the method and the apparatus provided by the present invention can advantageously simplify the architecture for synchronization replication and reduce the burdens of administrating tables, thereby making the operation of a storage system more efficient.

Abstract: For separating oil from aqueous or solvent dispersions the dispersion is passed through a porous flat-shaped textile article which comprises at least partly of oleophilic fibres each having a titer below 1 dtex. The flat-shaped textile article is preferably a three dimensional article, and can have a pile and possibly also a substrate comprising of extremely fine oleophilic artificial fibres. The pile threads and eventually also the threads of the substrate are split by means of a swelling agent into many extremely fine oleophilic fibres having a low titer. The small and very small oil drops in the dispersion are withheld on the extremely fine oleophilic fibres and coalesce to larger oil droplets or oil drops which rise to the surface of the liquid due to their lower density than the liquid. The oil can be easily removed from the surface of the liquid.

Abstract: Burner for a suspension of fine-grained coal in a liquid, particularly water, which burner operates according to a combination of the rotary burner and toroidal burner principles. The fuel is supplied axially behind a transverse distribution baffle (12,31, 55,65) within a conical rotary body (10, 30, 50,60). At least the outer rim portion (13,62) of the inner side of the rotary body (10, 30, 50, 60) forms an angle of35-80° with the axis of the burner. At the outer edge (13, 45, 64) of the rotary body there is an annular air supply nozzle (16, 46, 70) for supplying a conically diverging outwardly directed air stream (17,47). Outside the air supply nozzle and at a radial distance from it, there is a conical guide baffle (18,48) which at its outer end may be curved inwardly (at 22, 48') and which, together with the diverging air stream, serves to produce a positive recirculation of combustion gases, non-combusted coal particles and ash particles in a direction back towards the rotary body in accordance with the toroidal burner principle.
