Abstract: This fuel cell system (1) monitors the temperature of an off-gas combusting unit (6) detected by a combustor temperature detecting unit (101) in a constant output operation state such as a rated operation state where a sweeping current of a cell stack (5) becomes constant, rather than directly measuring the fuel property, and controls the flow rate of the cathode gas so that the temperature of the off-gas combusting unit (6) reaches a target temperature. Moreover, the fuel cell system (1) determines the fuel property based on the variation of the flow rate of the cathode gas changed until the temperature of the off-gas combusting unit (6) reaches the target temperature and the temperature of the cathode gas. Thus, it is possible to simplify the configuration required for determining whether the fuel property has changed or not as compared to a conventional method of measuring a plurality of factors of the fuel property.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to detect deterioration of an NOx selective reduction catalyst provided in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine with improved accuracy. An apparatus for detecting deterioration of NOx selective reduction catalyst according to the invention has an NOx purification rate calculation unit that calculates the NOx purification rate in the NOx selective reduction catalyst based on the NOx concentration in the exhaust gas flowing into the NOx selective reduction catalyst and the NOx concentration in the exhaust gas flowing out of the NOx selective reduction catalyst. A determination as to whether the NOx selective reduction catalyst is deteriorated or not is made based on the NOx purification rate at a time when the temperature of the NOx selective reduction catalyst is equal to or higher than a temperature (Tc0) at which the NOx purification rate will start to decrease with a rise in the temperature of the NOx selective reduction catalyst if the degree of deterioration of the NOx selective reduction catalyst is at the upper limit of an allowable range.

Abstract: A method and system for handling a message are provided. A terminal can translate a message composed by the user into a target language and send the translated message to a recipient terminal. The application shows using a translation server, rather than the terminal, to perform the conversion from one language to the other. The terminal can also translate a received message written in a language other than the language selected by the user into the language selected by the user and display the translated message. The method includes composing, by a sender terminal, a message, checking whether a translation feature is activated for message translation, transmitting, when the translation feature is not activated, the composed message to a receiver terminal, and translating, when the translation feature is activated, the composed message, and transmitting the translated message to the receiver terminal.
