Title: Method and apparatus for reducing sulfur dioxide content in flue gases
IPC: F23J3/00
Filed: 1992-11-16
Abstract: A method and apparatus are employed to reduce the sulfur dioxide produced by the combustion of a sulfur-containing fuel in a combustion chamber. Part of the combustion air is introduced into the combustion chamber with and closely adjacent the fuel. Another part of the combustion air is introduced into the combustion chamber above and downstream of the fuel and relatively remote therefrom under conditions which buffer the flame front and reduce peak flame temperatures therein. Finely divided limestone particles or the like are aspirated into the combustion chamber by the air introduced above the fuel and distributed thereby throughout the gases flowing downstream through the combustion chamber wherein the limestone particles are calcined to lime particles which react with the sulfur dioxide in the combustion reaction gases to produce calcium sulfate. There is no premixing of the particles and the aspirating air before they enter the combustion chamber. Various parameters are controlled to produce the desired results. <IMAGE>

Title: Optical seeking method and apparatus
Inventor: LEWIS DAVID EARL
IPC: G11B21/08
Filed: 1996-02-29
Abstract: There is disclosed a method for moving an optical head from an initial track (10) to a target track (11) on a storage medium (1). The total number of tracks (3) to be crossed is determined, and the optical head is moved toward the target track (11). A reflectivity level of light from the storage medium (1) is measured, and a tracking error signal is derived from the reflectivity level. The tracking error signal has both true and false indicators of track crossings. A data indicator signal is derived from the reflectivity level, having indicator points corresponding to the false indicators of track crossings. A track count number is incremented for each true indicator of a track crossing, and the optical head is stopped when the track count number equals the total number of tracks (3) to be crossed. Another method is disclosed whereby a track count signal is generated from the tracking error signal and the data indicator signal. The track count signal indicates track crossings corresponding to the true track crossing indicators in the tracking error signal.

Title: Digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and method that produce anapproximately piecewise linear analog waveform
Inventor: ESSENWANGER KENNETH A
IPC: G06F1/02
Filed: 1996-05-14
Abstract: A DAC (84) converts a sequence of digital codewords (12) into an approximately piecewise linear analog waveform (50, 106) that follows rising and falling edges (76, 78; 94, 96) between plateau levels (82; 98). The DAC (84) processes, in parallel, each bit of the codewords (12) to produce component waveforms (88) that are weighted according to their bits significance and summed together to produce the piecewise linear analog waveform (50, 106). Waveform shaping circuits (100) control the rise and fall times of each component waveform (88) so that the analog waveform's rising and falling edges settle to within a desired error bound (80) of a linear output ramp (56, 58) whose slope is a function of the difference between successive codewords (12) and the rise or fall times. The rise and fall times are preferably approximately the same. Limiting switches (102) control the plateau levels of the component waveforms (88) so that the analog waveform's plateaus settle to within the desired error bound (80) of the ideal values represented by the codewords (12). The linear region of the limiting switches (102) are expanded to maintain the linearity of the rising and falling edges established by the waveform shaping circuits (100). <IMAGE>
