Abstract: A cooling tower includes a hot water vessel (5) in whose bottom spray ports (6)
are formed. The spray ports (6) communicate with passages (16) defined by
vertical heat transfer surface members (12). A fan (2) draws air in from the
atmosphere through the passages (16) and then discharges it to the atmosphere.
Hot water flowing through the spray ports (6) runs down the surfaces of the heat
transfer surface members (12) and is cooled by direct contact with the air.
Certain pairs of the heat transfer surface members define permanent wet
passages (17), with which the spray ports (6) communicate. The remaining
pairs of heat transfer surface members define wet-dry changeover passages
(18), which are isolated from the permanent wet passages (17) and which
communicate with a separate auxiliary hot water supply vessel (21) via spray
pipes (19) below the hot water vessel (5). Hot water may thus be selectively
supplied to the wet-dry changeover passages (18). The hot water vessel (5) is
supported by the spray pipes (19).

Abstract: A liquid discharging method for discharging
liquid, which uses the pressure exerted at the time of
creating each of air bubbles in liquid in an air bubble
generating area, is arranged to provide two areas (2a,2b) for
generating each of them in such a manner as to enable
these areas to face each other at least partly, hence
discharging liquid by means of the pressure thus
exerted in the two air bubble generating areas. In
this way, it becomes possible to increase the amount of
discharging liquid more, as well as to enhance the
durability of the movable members (31a,31b), while stabilizing
the discharge of liquid from each of the discharge
openings.

Abstract: Procédé et mécanisme permettant de libérer rapidement de l'espace mémoire alloué à n'importe quelle partie logique d'un fichier. Un programme d'application fournit au système de fichiers des informations indiquant un bloc de données logiques devant être libéré. Le système de fichiers fait passer les informations aux unités d'allocation physiques telles que les groupes qui correspondent au bloc logique de données, et manipule les métadonnées du fichier en vue d'indiquer que l'espace physique n'est plus alloué au fichier. Le système de fichiers ajoute ensuite l'espace à l'espace libre du disque. Des applications telles que des applications de fusion et celles qui gèrent des listes directes peuvent utiliser ce procédé et ce mécanisme pour réduire l'encombrement du fichier, du début à la fin du fichier, sans copier les données logiques ou ajuster les pointeurs internes par rapport aux données logiques du fichier.

Abstract: In a method for checking the authenticity of a data medium, in particular a smart card, the encrypted form of a physical feature of the data medium is stored in the data medium. The encrypted form of the feature is transmitted to a terminal, which also measures the physical feature itself. The physical feature is encrypted using a secret key, and is decrypted in the terminal using a public key. Authenticity is confirmed if a comparison of the decrypted feature and the measured feature match. Since the secret key is not contained in either the data medium or the terminal, a high level of security is provided.
