IPC: G01F1/7084
Filed: 1998-12-17
Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring the velocity of a fluid relatively
independently of the physical properties of the fluid. This is preferably
accomplished by spacing two sensor elements at different distances from
the heater element. The present invention also contemplates minimizing
the effects of the non-zero heater time lag and/or the non-zero sensor time
lag for increased accuracy. This is preferably accomplished by either
measuring the time lags and subtracting the values thereof from an
uncorrected transit time measurement, forcing the sensor elements to track
the thermal disturbance in the fluid thereby minimizing the effects of the
sensor time lags, or measuring the transit time using sensors that have
substantially zero thermal mass.

Inventor: DUFFETT-SMITH PETER JAMES
IPC: G01S5/10
Filed: 2002-08-28
Abstract: The invention provides a method of estimating the time offsets between signals
transmitted by plural transmitters of a communications network and received by a
receiver attached to a terminal. In the method a section of a representation of the
signals from the plural transmitters received by the receiver at the terminal (a
"terminal section") is created as are a first section of a representation of the signal
transmitted by a first of said transmitters and a second section of a representation
of the signal transmitted by a second of said transmitters. Each of the first and
second sections overlaps in time with the terminal section. Using the first section,
the second section and a set of signal parameters, including initial estimates of
the time offsets between the first section and the terminal section and between
the second section and the terminal section, a model of a section of a
representation of the composite signal received by the receiver from the first and
second transmitters is created. Thereafter, the model is compared with the
terminal section and the set of signal parameters including the time offset
estimates is refined to minimise the difference between the model and the
terminal section. The time offsets in the refined parameter set used to minimise
the difference between said model and the terminal section, are adopted as the
estimated time offsets between the first section and the terminal section and
between the second section and the terminal section.

Title: Method and device for treating a fiber mass
Inventor: ZIKELI STEFAN
IPC: D06B3/02
Filed: 2002-04-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a device for treating a fiber mass (21), for example a nonwoven or a woven. Such fiber masses are guided through a pressing stand (22) for treatment in which they are pressed in at least one pressing zone (53) by means of a press roller (51), thereby pressing out from the fiber mass (21) a treatment fluid already present in the fiber mass (21). Once the treatment fluid is pressed out, a second treatment fluid is introduced into the fiber mass (21). In order to achieve as rapid and homogeneous a distribution of the second treatment fluid in the pressed-out fiber mass (21) as possible, the treatment fluid is introduced in an expansion zone (55) in which the pressure exerted by the press roller (51) decreases in the direction of movement (B) of the fiber mass (21) through the press roll surface (59), the press roll surface (59) being the surface by which the pressure acts onto the fiber mass (21).
