Title: Flue gas cooling and cleaning system
Inventor: BOCKMAN OLE KRISTIAN
IPC: F27D17/00
Filed: 2008-03-12
Abstract: An improved flue gas cooler (10), or bank of coolers (10), handles flue gas G from aluminium reduction cells in an aluminium smelter plant. The or each flue gas cooler (10) has a gas inlet chamber (14), a gas outlet chamber (16), and a matrix of gas cooling tubes (18) extending between the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber. Each cooling tube (18) has a bell-shaped inlet end (19) comprising an aerodynamically curved gas-accelerating profile effective to facilitate streamlined flow of flue gas G into the tube. The improved flue gas cooler makes it possible to connect the flue gas cooler to receive hot raw flue gas G direct from the aluminium reduction cells without getting clogged by dust and sublimates present in the flue gas. Once cooled, the flue gas can be safely passed on to a flue gas cleaning plant of the dry scrubbing type. The improved flue gas coolers are advantageously part of a system for using heat energy from the flue gas, in which a closed circuit coolant circulation system circulates coolant through the flue gas cooler and a heat exchange arrangement (24). Heat energy extracted from the coolant by the heat exchange arrangement (24) may be used to increase the efficiency of further plant coupled to the heat exchange arrangement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a procedure for manufacturing a frame-like structural component (2) with an opening (7), especially a recliner back structure or a seat frame structure of a vehicle, using a light metal alloy by means of casting.    With such a procedure, according to the invention, the following is provided:   a. Feeding of the molten metal to at least two heated melt feed-in guides (11, 11), whose melt outlets (12, 12) empty directly into a channel of a casting form, which serves to admit the melt for the structural component, b. Feeding of the molten metal from the melt feed-in guides into the channel of the casting form, whereby molten streams flow in opposite directions in the channel.  The procedure makes it possible to produce a structural component, which, after casting, in any case needs no significant re-working, and in which, in defined areas of the frame, enhanced mechanical characteristics can be featured.

Abstract: A method and device that uses transform matrices to down-sample a DCT image directly in the DCT domain. The transform matrices have been selected to minimize an optimization problem which is a function of the visual quality of down-sampled images obtained using the matrices and the computational complexity associated with using the transform matrices. The transform matrices comprise a row transform matrix and a column transform matrix. A down-sampled image is produced by determining an intermediary matrix as the product of the DCT image and one of either the row transform matrix or the column transform matrix and then determining the down-sampled image as the product of the intermediary matrix and the transform matrix not already used to determine the intermediary matrix.

Title: Method of downlink resource allocation in a sectorized environment
Inventor: LAROIA RAJIV
IPC: H04W28/04
Filed: 2008-06-11
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for communicating different size coded blocks of information in a wireless sectorized communications cell are described. Information may be categorized and formed into large, medium, and small coded blocks which may include error correction code bits based on the number of bits representing the information, time criticality of the information, and tolerable level of interference. Channels with full tone overlap between adjacent sectors, channels with no tone overlap between adjacent sectors, and channels with partial tone overlap between adjacent sectors are used for different size blocks. Some tones corresponding to a channel with less than full tone overlap are left unused in an adjacent sector thereby achieving less than full transmission tone overlap. Large transmission blocks are transmitted using full tone overlap channels; medium transmission blocks are transmitted using partial tone overlap channels; small transmission blocks are transmitted without using transmission tone overlap in adjacent sectors.
