Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and a method for cooking food on a grill having opposed upper and lower platens wherein a gap spacing between the platens is adjusted in an initial stage and in subsequent stages of the cooking time for the meat. The method includes causing the food to be located between two opposed platens, the opposed platens each having opposed cooking surfaces and the opposed cooking surfaces defining a gap spacing that is adjustable, and adjusting the gap spacing between the platens so that during an initial stage of the cooking the gap spacing is equal to or less than the nominal initial uncooked thickness of the food, and during one or more subsequent stages of the cooking, after the initial stage, the gap spacing between the platens is varied.

Abstract: A fault protection system for an electrical power distribution system and a method of configuring and operating a fault protection system for an electrical power distribution system accepts device fault protection parameters, such as the time-current-characteristics (TCCs), of boundary devices, and selects and sets fault protection parameters for one or more fault protection devices, such as fault-interrupters, that thus coordinate with the boundary devices. Fault protection parameter selection for each fault protection device may occur automatically, and each device may reconfigure its fault protection parameters based upon changes in the electrical power distribution system, for example, as the result of fault isolation and/or service restoration.

Abstract: In a heat tracing system using heat from a radiant heater to heat a circulating fluid, thermoelectric generation modules are used to generate electricity for powering a circulating pump. Thermoelectric power generation modules are sandwiched between a heat-absorbing plate and a heat sink, and this assembly is positioned with the heat-absorbing plate adjacent to a radiant heater. A conduit loop passes through the heat sink, such that a fluid circulating through the conduit is heated from heat drawn from the heater into the heat sink. Due to the temperature differential between the hot and cold sides of the thermoelectric modules, the modules produce electricity to power the pump circulating the fluid through the conduit loop. Supplementary heat exchanger components may be provided for additional fluid-heating capacity, and thereby increasing the amount of heat available for the heat tracing loop.

Abstract: Since a portion of projected streaks on a friction- joining steel plate 10 is provided with a Vickers hardness which is at least 3 times greater than that on the surface of steel plates IA and IB, the projected streaks are allowed to more easily enter into the steel plates IA and IB, and since a frictional resistance derived from a mechanical slip resistance of the thus entered projected streaks acts between the steel plates IA and IB, a marked increase is obtained in the friction coefficient between the steel plates IA and IB via the friction-joining steel plate 10. Consequently, a friction-joining structure is constituted by a slip resistance mechanism which can be easily validated from a theoretical or an experimental point of view and is also small in variance of the friction coefficient. Therefore, a friction coefficient used in design can be set at a high value with high accuracy to realize a rational design.

Abstract: The "Grid Security Monitor" tracks the security status of resources in a grid computer system. When a client submits a job to the grid scheduler, the Grid Security Monitor creates a security contract. The security contract comprises all the security credentials needed to access the resource executing the job, as well as privacy and security requirements. The Grid Security Monitor compares the security status of the resource to the requirements of the security contract. If the security status of the resource changes or violates the security contract, then the Grid Security Monitor notifies the client. The Grid Security Monitor has a user interface that allows the client to perform a manual security validation by asking the grid management system to verify the security status of the resource.

Abstract: Repeatable bending angle apparatus incorporated into existing manually or pneumatically operated metal stock bending apparatus permits making a number of successive bends of metal stock having similar characteristics. A disk is rotatably mounted below the bending apparatus bending arm with its center located at the bending arm axis. The disk can be rotated and locked at any bending angle. In a first embodiment, using manual bending power, an upward extension from the disk into the bending arm path provides a stop for successive bends at identical angles. Second and third embodiments use pneumatic power. The second embodiment utilizes a spring loaded insert from the stop to give the operator an indication of where to stop the apparatus at the desired angle before the disk will be rotated by the bending arm bearing against the stop. In the third embodiment the stop mounts a valve with a spring loaded extension which shuts off air to a pneumatic pump which stops the bending arm at the same angle when the bending arm depresses the valve extension for successive bends of equal angles.

Abstract: An array of stillages mounted on top of each other or one stillage is able to be disposed at an angle to another. The advantage of this arrangement is that space between adjacent stillages in an array can be adjusted to hold a range of different sized articles during transport. A further advantage is that once the articles have reached their destination, the array of stillages can be further adjusted to angle one platform relative to another. In this way articles, which have been transported can then be displayed professionally by reconfiguring the array of stillages after reaching a destination.

Abstract: Recovery of ethane, ethylene, propane, propylene, and heavier hydrocarbon components from a hydrocarbon gas stream. The stream is cooled and divided into first and second streams. The first stream is further cooled to condense it and is thereafter expanded to the fractionation tower pressure and supplied to the tower at mid-column. The second stream is expanded to the tower pressure and is supplied to the tower at mid-column. A distillation stream is withdrawn from the column below the feed point of the second stream and compressed, and is heat-exchanged with the tower overhead vapor stream to cool the distillation stream and condense it, forming a condensed stream which is the tower top feed. The system is effective to maintain the overhead temperature of the tower at an effective recovery temperature. The distillation stream can be withdrawn from the column above the feed point of the second stream.
