Title: Method for power matching in an electricity grid
Inventor: ALTHAUS ROLF
IPC: H02J15/00
Filed: 2003-06-30
Granted: 2011-08-09
Abstract: According to the invention, power matching in an electricity grid (N) is carried out by regulation of a storage power station (S) which is operated in the grid. In the event of changes in the power available or in the power consumption in the grid, the power consumption of the power consuming machine (V) in the storage power station is adapted so as to maintain equilibrium between the total power generation and the total power consumption. Power matching by regulation of the power load can be carried out around one order of magnitude more quickly than power matching by regulation of power generating machines (G1, G2, G3, GS) which act on the grid, and saves alternating thermal loads in the power stations.

Title: System and method for wireless remote control of locomotives
Inventor: AIKEN ROBERT C
IPC: B61L3/12
Filed: 2003-07-31
Granted: 2016-08-30
Abstract: A system and method for remotely controlling an increased number of subsystems having an onboard locomotive control unit (LCU) and two associated operator control units (OCUs) on a single wireless channel. A time slot is assigned to each subsystem for making two-way transmissions to control the locomotive. A signal from an external timing source synchronizes each subsystem to minimize interference between transmissions from different subsystems. Time slots are assigned manually or automatically over a wireless network or by the LCU after monitoring the channel. The LCU automatically selects the direct or repeater transmission path depending upon whether or not it receives polling message responses from its associated OCUs. A GPS receiver in each subsystem receives the synchronization signal and provides geographic positioning data so the LCU can determine when to execute predefined, position-based commands. The secondary OCU may be turned off and rejoined to the subsystem without ceasing operation.

Filed: 2005-04-04
Granted: 2011-02-01
Abstract: A method and apparatus for forwarding non-consecutive data blocks in enhanced uplink (EU) transmissions. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and one or more Node-Bs include one or more automatic repeat request (ARQ)/hybrid-ARQ (H-ARQ) processes for supporting an enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH). Data blocks transmitted by the WTRU are re-ordered in a re-ordering entity located in the Node-B(s) or a radio network controller (RNC). Once a missing data block is identified, a data forwarding timer in the Node-B(s) or RNC is initiated and subsequent WTRU transmissions are monitored to determine whether the missing data block has been discarded by the WTRU. Upon recognition of the discard of the missing data block, the non-consecutive data blocks are forwarded to higher layers.

Inventor: MICHEL ANTHONY
IPC: B65G5/00
Filed: 2006-12-07
Granted: 2014-10-14
Abstract: The geological environment is cut out as a set of sub-volumes for which links are defined. A multi-phase reactive transportation model is defined next, producing a two-part cut-out of the phenomena involved in the behaviour of the said geological environment according to a transfer rate principle. A first part is treated by a first compositional multiphase reservoir sub-model allowing transfer rates related to the gaseous phase to be determined. A second part is treated by a monophasic reactive transport model type allowing the transfer rates related to water and solids to be determined. The model is initialised using data acquired in the field or in a laboratory. Based on the reactive transport model, the storage capacities of the sour gases in the environment are determined. Application to storing sour gases in a natural reservoir.

Title: Echangeur de pression pour le transfert d'energie de pression a partir d'un flux de liquide haute pression vers un flux de liquide basse pression
Inventor: HAUGE LEIF
IPC: B01J3/03
Filed: 2005-08-10
Granted: 2013-02-12
Abstract: L'invention concerne un échangeur de pression permettant de transférer l'énergie de pression d'un flux fluide à pression relativement haute à un autre flux fluide à pression relativement basse. Un rotor caréné est positionné sur un axe central entre deux chapeaux d'extrémité, à l'intérieur d'un récipient sous pression doté d'une paire d'entrée et de sortie coaxiales en communication avec une paire d'orifices basse pression présentant une inclinaison qui forme un vecteur vitesse d'entrée tangentiel dans le sens de rotation du rotor et un vecteur vitesse de sortie tangentiel dans le sens opposé, ce qui confère une quantité de mouvement rotatif audit rotor. Une paire d'orifices haute pression est conçue pour un écoulement sans inclination et afin de ne pas fournir de quantité de mouvement au rotor, ledit écoulement pouvant varier sans avoir d'incidence sur le RPM du rotor. Les chapeaux d'extrémité possèdent une surface inclinée placée après une zone de joint plat qui augmente le jeu dans le sens de rotation, ce qui entraîne d'une part une augmentation de l'écoulement de sortie pendant la dépressurisation et une basse pression dans le conduit avant que celui-ci ne soit exposé à un orifice basse et d'autre part une augmentation de l'écoulement d'entrée pendant la phase de pressurisation avant que le conduit ne soit exposé à un orifice haute pression, ce qui a pour effet de dissiper la pression au lieu de produire une cavitation ou des ondes de pression génératrices d'usure et de bruit.

Patent CA-2580930-C (CA)
Inventor: LEFENFELD MICHAEL
IPC: B01J23/04

Granted: 2013-07-09
Abstract: The invention relates to Group 1 metal/porous metal oxide compositions comprising porous metal oxide selected from porous titanium oxide and porous alumina and an alkali metal or an alkali metal alloy. The compositions of the inventions are described as Stage 0 and I materials. These materials differ in their preparation and chemical reactivity. Each successive stage may be prepared directly using the methods described below or from an earlier stage material. Stage 0 materials may, for example, be prepared using liquid alloys of Na and K which are rapidly absorbed by porous metal oxide under isothermal conditions, preferably at or just above room temperature, to form loose black powders that retain much of the reducing ability of the parent metals. When the low melting Group 1 metals are absorbed into the porous metal oxide at about 150~C, an exothermic reaction produces Stage I material, loose black powders that are stable in dry air. Further heating forms higher stage materials of unknown composition. It is believed that Stage I higher materials represent reductions of the porous metal oxide after absorption of the Group 1 metal. Preferred Group 1 metal/porous metal oxide compositions of the invention are those containing sodium, potassium, or sodium-potassium alloys with sodium and sodium-potassium alloys being most preferred. Each stage of the Group 1 metal/porous metal oxide composition of the invention may be used as a reducing agent reacting with a number of reducible organic materials in the same manner known for alkali metals and their alloys.
