Abstract: Flue gas, in particular from a steam generator, requires cleaning. A catalytic converter for deNOxing the flue gas, which is used, for example, to heat an air preheater, is often employed for this purpose. Residues of a reducing agent react with unconverted sulfur oxide and form a substance which damages the air preheater. To suppress this reaction, there is provided a first mixer for more uniformly mixing the flue gas with the reducing agent downstream of the catalytic converter, as seen in the direction of flow.

Abstract: An axially elongated extruder screw includes a screw body having an axially extending extruding portion defined by a feed section at an inlet end of the screw, a metering section at an outlet end of the screw and a barrier section between the feed and metering sections. At least one helical primary flight extends about and is coaxial with the screw body. The primary flight and the screw body cooperate to form a channel in the feed section for conveying resinous material to the barrier section. The barrier section includes at least one helical secondary flight extending from the primary flight about the screw body which in turn defines a first surface of revolution between the primary and secondary flights. At least one helical tertiary flight is positioned between the primary and secondary flights and also extends about the screw body which defines a second helical surface of revolution between the secondary and tertiary flights. A third surface of revolution is formed between the primary and tertiary flights and extends axially along the barrier section. A series of circumaxially contiguous cam-like forms are created by a second and third surfaces of revolution, each cam-like form being defined by a segment of the screw having a root, a crest, a first surface portion extending radially outwardly from the root to the crest in the direction of screw rotation, and a second surface portion extending radially inwardly from the crest to the root.

Abstract: Correlation times for a RAKE receiver are determined from time differentials between multipath components of a received signal based on correlation metrics, preferably signal strength measurements, associated with the multipath components. According to various embodiments of the present invention, selection strategies are employed in which "desired signal collecting" and "interference collecting" correlation times may be selected using average optimal (AO) or instantaneous optimal (IO) selection criteria. These criteria may include, for example, thresholds for signal strengths associated with multipath components of a signal at the correlation times, where the signal strengths may include absolute or relative measures of signal power or signal to noise ratio. According to alternative embodiments, correlation times are selected using an inverse filter of an estimated channel response. Related apparatus is also described.

Abstract: A device contains a memory that stores a WOM codeword that encodes successive generations of data values. When the codeword must be updated to represent a new data value, the device determines which updates of the dataword can be realized by feasible single bit updates to the WOM (Write Once Memory) codeword. If no feasible single bit update is possible, feasible two-bit updates are considered. Under control of the new data values a connection circuit routes feasibility signals for various updates, that signal the single-bit feasibility of the updates. Routing brings together pairs of feasibility signals for updates that together produce a WOM codeword that encodes the new data value. A pair is selected in which both feasibility signals indicate feasibility and the codeword is updated according to the updates involved in the pair. Preferably, the routing is realized with a connection circuit that comprises a number of layers of subcircuits, each routing the feasibility signals dependent on a respective bit of the new dataword. Also preferably, the WOM code is designed so that each of a number of updates to the data word can be realized by setting singles ones of a plurality of bits.
