Title: Method of monitoring the storage of heat energy in the ground and associated device
Inventor: SEGUIN BRUNO
IPC: F24D11/00
Filed: 2006-11-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of monitoring a unit for storing heat energy in the ground, including a plurality of heat exchangers which are buried in the ground.  According to the invention, each of the aforementioned heat exchangers enables an exchange of heat energy between a heat-transfer fluid passing therethrough and the ground.  The energy storage unit is disposed at the interface between a heat energy source and a heat energy consumer in order to store heat energy.  The inventive method is characterised in that it consists in measuring: the temperature at different points of the ground using buried temperature sensors, the temperatures and flow rate of a heat-transfer fluid entering and leaving the source in order to determine the thermal output supplied by the source, and the temperatures and flow rate of a heat-transfer fluid entering and leaving the consumer in order to determine the thermal output to be supplied to the consumer.  The invention is also characterised in that the storage of heat energy in the storage unit is optimised by selecting active exchangers from among the plurality of exchangers as a function of the temperature measurements, the flow rate measurements and the thermal output measurements.

Abstract: An exposed image from a CCD (101) is loaded repeatedly to each plane of a SDRAM (103) by turns and a latest image after loading is displayed. For example, when an image is forwarded, a previous image is displayed. When forwarding begins, a next exposure is also started and a displayed image is switched as well. From a beginning point of a release of mechanical retention of an image-blur compensator, updating of the displayed image of an LCD monitor (1') is stopped. Switching of a next image and the forwarding of an exposed image from the CCD (101) to the SDRAM (103) are prohibited. From an ending point of the release of the mechanical retention, a next exposed image is forwarded from the CCD (101) to the SDRAM (103) and the updating of the displayed image to the image forwarded to the SDRAM (103) on a display apparatus is allowed. Hereby, it is possible to display an image without an incongruity such as an image shift and so on when a retention is released, and at the same time it is also possible to determine a gravity direction by information on a position of a retention mechanism.
