Title: Fuel cell system having controller controlling higher-efficiency operation and lower-efficiency operation
Inventor: MANABE KOTA
IPC: H01M8/10
Filed: 2007-10-22
Granted: 2012-08-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a fuel cell system capable of avoiding a disadvantage caused by the maintaining of a low-efficiency operation. The fuel cell system is configured to perform a higher-efficiency operation and a lower-efficiency operation having a larger power loss than a higher-efficiency operation. A controller of the fuel cell system controls the fuel cell system to perform the lower-efficiency operation at a predetermined low temperature to raise the temperature of a fuel cell in a shorter time than the higher-efficiency operation, and prohibits the low-efficiency operation so as to execute the higher-efficiency operation when predetermined conditions are established at the predetermined low temperature. The predetermined conditions may include a time when the generated power of the fuel cell cannot be consumed, a time when this generated power cannot be accumulated in a battery, or a time when the flooding of the fuel cell is generated. The fuel cell system avoids a disadvantage caused by the maintaining of a low-efficiency operation to improve the safety of a system operation.

Title: Dynamic purge system for a heat recovery wheel
Inventor: D'ARCY MARCUS JAMES
IPC: F28D19/04
Filed: 2010-01-05
Granted: 2017-04-04
Abstract: An automatically operable dynamic purge system that is incorporated into a heat recovery wheel that comprises a number of radial seals that direct a controlled area of supply air into the exhaust air stream passing through the heat recovery wheel. Two possible configurations include a single purge and a double purge. For the single purge, one seal is fixed in location on one face of the wheel and a second seal is dynamic and is on the opposite face. For the double purge, two seals are fixed in location on one face of the wheel and a third seal is dynamic and is on the opposite face. In each case the dynamic seal is secured by an automatically operable wiper blade. This wiper blade is attached near the center of the wheel such that it rotates, in turn, allowing the seal to rotate whilst remaining approximately radial to the wheel.

Abstract: A system and method to improve the accuracy of the measure of constituent element(s) in a sample containing domains potentially including the constituent element(s) are described herein.  For each domain, the volume of the domain is estimated and the concentration of the constituent element(s) in the domain is determined using LIBS. When all the domains have been analyzed, the volumetric concentration of the domains is summed and divided by the total volume of the sample. Accordingly, by limiting the concentration analysis to separate domains, it is possible to improve the accuracy of the concentration analysis.

Abstract: A tracking device for automatically fol-lowing a moving light source that is detectable in the pres-ence of ambient light. A carrier platform including one or more radiant energy conversion devices and a sensor array is mounted to an upright support column with a universal joint. Three independently-operated, linear actuators are equally angularly spaced about the support column with an upper end connected to the carrier platform with a universal hinge and a lower end connected to a floating base with a spherical hinge. A sensor array carried by the carrier plat-form includes a primary sensor associated with each actua-tor.    During operation, when a primary sensor is not receiv-ing direct radiant energy, the actuator retracts, and when it is receiving radiant energy directly, the actuator extends.  The result is that the platform will directly track the sun across the horizon.
