Title: Wind turbine with slender blade
Inventor: CORTEN PAUL GUSTAVE
IPC: F03D7/02
Filed: 2013-09-04
Granted: 2016-11-24
Abstract: 5 Wind turbine with a rotor blade wherein said blade is relatively insensitive to turbulence because it is more slender than according to the prior art and is nevertheless able to generate sufficient lift by virtue of the fact that flow enhancing means such as vortex generators combat flow separation. The slenderness is defined by the chord numbers C and D of which C is defined as C = Nc,ctrA2/R2 , in which N is 10 the number of blades, cr is the local chord, c, the lift coefficient, r the radial position, A the tip speed ratio and R the rotor radius. Subsequently, the chord should be less than what follows from the equation C = M in which M = -1.19 +9.74Cp -21.01 Cp2 +17.50CP3 and C, is the power coefficient. A wind turbine according to the invention is subject to about 2-12% less operational loads and to about 5-40% reduced survival wind speed 15 loads compared to classical designs.

Title: Multi-stage bubble column humidifier
Inventor: GOVINDAN PRAKASH
IPC: C02F1/04
Filed: 2014-06-06
Granted: 2018-02-08
Abstract: A feed liquid flows into a second-stage humidifier chamber to form a second-stage humidifier bath. A first remnant of the feed liquid from the second-stage humidifier chamber then flows into a first-stage humidifier chamber to form a first-stage humidifier bath having a temperature lower than that of the second-stage bath. A second remnant of the feed liquid is then removed from the first-stage humidifier. Meanwhile, a carrier gas is injected into and bubbled through the first-stage humidifier bath, collecting a vaporizable component in vapor form from the first remnant of the feed liquid to partially humidify the carrier gas. The partially humidified carrier gas is then bubbled through the second-stage humidifier bath, where the carrier gas collects more of the vaporized component from the feed liquid to further humidify the carrier gas before removal from the second-stage humidifier chamber.
