Abstract: Système cyclique combiné semi-fermé (100) convertissant une turbine à gaz à cycle fermé (10) en un système de génération d'énergie non polluante. La turbine à gaz (10) de l'état actuel de la technique comprend un compresseur (20) comprimant de l'air (A') et en effectuant la combustion au moyen de combustible. Les produits de combustion constituent l'échappement (E') qui est dilaté à travers la turbine (40). Cette turbine (40) entraîne le compresseur (20) et produit de l'énergie. L'échappement (E') sort de la turbine (40) et peut être conduit à travers un générateur de vapeur (50) de récupération thermique. L'échappement (E') est acheminé vers un séparateur (110) possédant deux sorties, y compris un conduit de retour (120) et un conduit de séparation (130). Le conduit de retour (120) renvoie une partie de l'échappement (E') au compresseur (20) et un conduit (150) effectue un apport d'oxygène à l'échappement (E').

Title: Managing replacement of data in a cache on a node based on caches of other nodes
Inventor: BAMFORD ROGER
IPC: G06F12/12
Filed: 2001-08-30
Granted: 2009-04-14
Abstract: Caches on nodes in a cluster are globally managed so that a data item may be retained in any of the caches. A replacement policy that governs the replacement of data items stored in the caches selects buffers for replaceme nt according to factors that include the state of the caches of other nodes. So me cached data items are designated as globally shared and assigned a primary cache. If a buffer holds a copy of a data item whose primary cache is anothe r node, then the data item in the buffer is favored for replacement over a loc al data item or a global data item for which this is the primary cache. Cache retention values of buffers on different nodes may be compared. The buffer with the lowest cache retention value is selected for replacement. The replacement policy may also account for the way other caches in the cluster are configured.

Granted: 2007-10-30
Abstract: A fixing member is fixed to a beverage pack in a state in which a through-hole and an opening are aligned. Next, the pointed end of an adapter body is inserted into the opening through the through-hole. This causes the pointed end to puncture a film and pass through the opening, but a flange serves as a stopper so that just the pointed end is inserted into the beverage pack. At this point the surrounding area is kept liquid-tight by a seal, and the adapter body is prevented from falling out by ridges provided to this. One end of a tube is connected to a joint of the adapter body. A catheter is connected to the other end of this tube, allowing a nutritional beverage contained in the beverage pack to be discharged directly from the catheter.

Title: Quick change filter and bracket system with key system and universal key option
Inventor: REID ROGER P
IPC: B01D35/30
Filed: 2003-02-21
Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: A bracket system holds a filter(s) in quick-attach and quick-release fashion . Brackets are combined in modular fashion, with conduit between the brackets, to create a "bank" of filters easily changed in number, arrangement, and flo w scheme. Top brackets and bottom brackets capture/support the top end and bottom end of a filter, respectively, and filter inlet and outlet ports preferably slide onto and off of cooperating tubes/ports in the bracket modules without tools or threaded connections. A retainer may pivot on and o ff of its respective filter, holding the filter in place and releasing the filter, respectively. After pivoting the retainer up from the filter, the filter may be lifted up off of its respective bottom module, so that the filter is substantially vertically and pivotally removable from the bracket system. A keyed system may ensure that only the appropriate filter fits into the appropriate filter holder, wherein the keyed system includes key protrusions and cooperating key recesses on the mating surfaces that form a fluid connection between the filter and the filter holder. Sets of holders a nd filters may be provided wherein each set has key structure at different radi al locations on the members, so that filters from a particular set cannot be us ed with any other set's holder. A universally-keyed filter may also be supplied that has key structure that fits with and cooperates with more than one of t he differently-keyed filter holders so that the universally-keyed filter may be used with the various sets' holders.

Abstract: A method for making an opacity relevant grade paper or paperboard product, such as a communication type paper used for printing and writing applications, utilizes an effective amount of quaternized alkanolamine fatty acid ester compounds as an opacification aid to control the optical properties of the paper or paperboard product as a wet-end additive to a papermaking operation. Using the quaternized alkanolamine fatty acid ester compound can improve the opacity of the paper or paperboard product, maintain the opacity of the paper while reducing the use of other opacification aids, such as inorganic fillers and/or pigments, and allow for a reduction in paper grammage without a compromise in opacity. The improvements in paper optical properties are achieved without adversely affecting other characteristics of the paper product such as bulk value, tensile strength, tear index, and the like.

Abstract: A handheld electronic device includes a reduced QWERTY keyboard and is enabled with disambiguation software. The device provides output in the form of a default output and a number of variants. The output is based largely upon the frequency, i.e., the likelihood that a user intended a particular output, but various features of the device provide additional variants that are not based solely on frequency and rather are provided by various logic structures resident on the device. The device enables editing during text entry and also provides a learning function that allows the disambiguation function to adapt to provide a customized experience for the user. The disambiguation function can be selectively disabled and an alternate keystroke interpretation system provided. Additionally, the device can facilitate the selection of variants by displaying a graphic of a special <NEXT> key of the keypad that enables a user to progressively select variants generally without changing the position of the user's hands on the device.
