Patent CA-2595478-C (CA)
Title: Dispositif de distribution pour des cuves a circulation descendante simultanee a deux phases
Inventor: MUELLER MORTEN
IPC: B01J8/02
Filed: 2006-01-20
Granted: 2015-08-25
Abstract: L'invention concerne un plateau de distribution permettant de distribuer uniformément de la vapeur et un liquide s'écoulant vers le bas à travers la section transversale d'une cuve. Le plateau de distribution comporte une pluralité de trous munis de trop-pleins qui s'étendent au-dessus du plateau. Les trop-pleins présentent des extrémités supérieures ouvertes et des extrémités inférieures ouvertes et permettent au fluide de s'écouler d'une partie située au-dessus du plateau à une partie située au-dessous du plateau. Chaque trop-plein comporte un conduit de liquide pourvu d'un orifice d'admission de liquide submergé dans le bassin de liquide du plateau, d'une section pour l'écoulement vers le haut du liquide et des ouvertures pour le liquide à des élévations supérieures en communication fluidique avec le trop-plein. Une section de surface d'écoulement réduite et des moyens permettant d'améliorer la dispersion du liquide peuvent être utilisés au niveau de l'orifice d'évacuation du trop-plein. Pendant le fonctionnement, la vapeur pénètre par l'extrémité ouverte supérieure du trop-plein. Le liquide est recueilli dans un bassin du plateau et s'écoule à travers l'orifice d'admission du liquide et dans le conduit de liquide, montant vers le conduit de liquide et à travers les ouvertures pour le liquide qui débouchent sur le trop-plein où le liquide se mélange à la vapeur descendante. Le flux à deux phases traverse la section de surface d'écoulement réduite à une vitesse accrue afin d'améliorer la dispersion du liquide avant que le flux traverse les moyens permettant d'améliorer la dispersion du liquide. Les fluides s'écoulent par l'extrémité ouverte inférieure du trop-plein et sortent du distributeur.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for limiting communication capabilities in mobile communication devices are disclosed. In one illustrative example, an operating variable of a mobile communication device is detected to be within one of a first range of values, a second range of values, and a third range of values. The mobile device operates in a full communication state if the operating variable is detected to be within the first range of values, a first limited communication state if the operating variable is detected to be within the second range of values, or a second limited communication state if the operating variable is detected to be within the third range of values. When receiving a communication request for establishment of a voice call or for communication of a user data message, the mobile device permits or prohibits the communication depending on the communication state, and preferably depending on whether the communication request is for a non-emergency or emergency communication. In one preferred embodiment, the operating variable is a temperature of the mobile device.

Granted: 2012-04-24
Abstract: A fuel cell battery (2) has a structure in which a plurality of cells are stacked and in-series connected. The cells include a cell (15), and one or more cells (16) of a cell stack (11). Hydrogen that has entered the fuel cell battery (2) from a channel (12) is supplied to each cell through a supply manifold (13). After the amount of hydrogen needed for power generation is consumed, gas is discharged as a fuel off-gas into a discharge manifold (14), and then flows into the cell (15). This prevents impurities contained in the fuel off-gas from being accumulated in the cells (16), and causes the impurities to be accumulated in the cell (15). Thus, variations in the amount of power generation among the cells can be restrained in a fuel cell battery system that employs a dead-end method.
