Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un système non pressurisé d'alimentation en liquide, qui sert à acheminer un liquide, par exemple de l'eau, vers plusieurs unités de traitement du liquide. A cet effet, des conduits dans un étage d'écoulement sortant divisent l'écoulement de liquide provenant d'un étage d'écoulement entrant, éventuellement via au moins un étage intermédiaire. L'étage d'écoulement entrant et l'étage d'écoulement sortant possèdent des surfaces de section transversale essentiellement équivalentes, et l'étage d'écoulement sortant comporte au moins deux conduits qui divisent l'écoulement dirigé vers les unités de traitement de liquides, afin d'atteindre un traitement plus efficace du liquide. L'étage d'écoulement entrant et l'étage d'écoulement sortant coopèrent pour maintenir un écoulement de liquide essentiellement constant dans tout le système non pressurisé d'alimentation en liquide. Ce système contient de préférence un collecteur horizontale de division de l'écoulement. Ce système non pressurisé d'alimentation en liquide peut être par exemple un système de vidange d'eau, un système d'eaux usées ou un système de traitement chimique.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de communication sans fil pour transférer des données sortantes améliorées (EU) en mémoire-tampon d'une unité d'émission/de réception sans fil (WTRU), à savoir une station mobile, à un noeud B. Les données EU sont générées et stockées dans un tampon de la WTRU. La WTRU envoie un message au noeud B comprenant une demande pour une combinaison de format de transport (TFC) ou un indicateur de trafic de données déterminés. Le noeud B planifie une ou plusieurs transmissions de données EU autorisées entre la WTRU et le noeud B par transmission d'un message d'ordonnancement de données EU à la WTRU. La WTRU transmet toutes les données EU stockées dans le tampon au noeud B, dans la mesure où les transmissions de données EU autorisées sont suffisantes pour assurer le transfert de toutes les données EU stockées dans le tampon. Si ce n'est pas le cas, la WTRU transmet une partie des données EU avec la TFC correspondante ou une information détaillée relative à la mesure de volume de trafic (TVM) au noeud B.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle (100) can be driven using both of respective driving forces from an engine (10) and a motor (80). A heating mechanism (120) of an air conditioning apparatus (110) uses thermal energy from cooling water of the engine (10) to heat the interior of a passenger compartment. An ECU (90) tak es into consideration engine efficiency from the standpoint of fuel economy enhancement to primarily determine the driving force share ratio between the engine (10) and the motor (80). Further, the ECU (90) calculates a preset temperature corresponding to a cooling water temperature necessary for desir ed heating as well as a control target temperature in which the preset temperature is reflected, and corrects the primarily determined driving forc e share ratio to increase the share of the driving force of the engine by an amount according to a deviation between the cooling water temperature (Tw) measured by a water temperature sensor (98) and the control target temperature. Heating performance can thus be ensured promptly without deterioration of fuel economy.

Abstract: A target pressure value is determined during the learning mode. Subsequent pressure values are then compared to the target value. For example, a first connection is tightened in a conventional manner, while its pressure is monitored during the learning mode. If the tightening process went well, then an operator pushes a button that tells the monitor to remember how much pressure was used on the tongs to tighten the first connection. The pressure value of that first joint then becomes the target pressure value for any subsequent joints. As additional joints are tightened, the pressure applied to the tongs is monitored and compared to the first one to ensure that all the joints are as good as the first one within an allowable tolerance.
