Patent AU-2407000-A (AU)
Title: Method of generating power using an advanced thermochemical recuperation cycle
Inventor: BASU ARUNABHA
IPC: F02G5/02
Filed: 2000-01-06
Abstract: A power generating method that includes the steps of burning a reformed fuel in the presence of air in a combustor of a gas turbine to generate a hot exhaust gas is disclosed. The hot exhaust gas is then passed through a turbine section of the gas turbine to generate power and, thereafter, the hot exhaust gas is passed through a heat recovery system where the hot exhaust gas is successively cooled as it passes through a series of heat exchangers. Heat exchangers comprising the heat recovery system include combustion air pre-heater(s); a thermochemical recuperator (or reformer), wherein hot exhaust gas provides the endothermic heat of reaction necessary to reform a raw fuel/steam mixture to the combustible, reformed fuel that is eventually burned in the combustor; and one or more water/steam heaters which supply steam to a low-pressure, condensing steam turbine of a bottoming Rankine cycle to generate additional power. A cooled exhaust gas exits the heat recovery system and, optionally, may be sent to scrubbers and/or other unit operations for further processing, such as removal of harmful toxins, before being vented to the atmosphere.

Title: Digital optical receiver with instantaneous josephson clock recovery circuit
Inventor: KAPLOUNENKO VSEVOLOD
IPC: H04B10/556
Filed: 1997-08-21
Abstract: A digital optical receiver and clock recovery circuit for use in detecting and retiming optical data transmitted at rates up to and exceeding 40 Gb/s. The receiver is made, in part, of superconducting Josephson junctions. The receiver includes an optical signal detector, an SFQ (single flux quantum) transition detector for converting the signal from the photodetector into a stream of single flux quantum signals, and a clock recovery circuit. The clock recovery circuit includes a superconducting ring oscillator in which an SFQ pulse rotates and provides a clock signal at an output of the oscillator. When a pulse from the stream of single flux quantum pulses arrives from the transition detector, two pulses are generated in the ring oscillator. One of the pulses eliminates the rotating SFQ pulse and the second pulse replaces the rotating SFQ pulse, thereby recovering the phase of the clock signal in one bit.
