Title: Combi power plant
Inventor: HAEGGLUND THOMAS
IPC: F02G5/02
Filed: 2000-02-10
Abstract: A combined cycle power plant, comprising at least one
multi-cylinder combustion engine unit, the exhaust gases of
which are fed into exhaust gas boiler means (10), whereupon
the unit comprises two adjacent sets (1a,1b) of cylinders
each arranged in a line, as well as two turbo apparatuses
arranged so that the exhaust gases from each set of
cylinders (1a, 1b) are fed to a separate turbo apparatus
(3,4). Compressors (3b,4b) are successively coupled so that
the compressed air for each of the sets of cylinders (1a,1b)
of the engine unit is led via the compressor (3b) of the
first turbo apparatus to the compressor (4b) of the second
turbo apparatus and, thereafter to the cylinders. The
exhaust gases form one turbo apparatus (4) are fed directly
into the exhaust gas boiler means (10a), and the exhaust
gases from other turbo apparatus (3) are fed into the boiler
means (10a) via a separate heat exchanger (12). A first
steam production circuit (11a) is connected to the exhaust
gas boiler means (10) and is led into the heat exchanger
(12) before being fed into a steam turbine (13).

Abstract: An ink jet recording medium, capable of recording
thereon ink images having excellent clarity and sharpness
without blotting of ink images, includes an ink receiving
layer formed on a support material and containing xerogel
porous pigment particle, and has a such a specific
feature that when a plurality of ink dots are formed each
by successively jetting three coloring ink droplets
different in color from each other and equal in droplet
volume to each other toward a point of the ink receiving
layer, to successively superpose the jetted three
coloring ink droplets and to form a mixed colored dot in
the point, the average size of the resultant dots is 125%
or less based on an average dot size of ink dots each
formed from two different coloring ink droplets.

Abstract: An apparatus for continuously winding a web of sheet material into rolls
comprises a turret mechanism (1) comprising two or more winding mandrels
(2,3,4,5). 
     The turret mechanism (1) is rotatably indexed to bring each mandrel (2,3,4,5)
in turn into a winding position in which it is rotatably driven to wind a web of sheet
material (8) connected thereto into a roll, and to bring the adjacent mandrel lying
immediately behind it in the direction of rotation of the turret into contact with the
web (8). The said adjacent mandrel is rotatable. 
     Rotary means (11) is adapted for selective engagement with the said adjacent
mandrel, which rotary means (11) is rotatably driven in the opposite direction to the
said adjacent mandrel and at a greater speed. 
     The apparatus further comprises web cutting means (16) adapted to cut the
web (8) at a point lying between the current rewind mandrel and the said adjacent
mandrel. The cut end of the web is directed by the cutting means between the
adjacent mandrel and the rotary means (11), such that by rotating the said adjacent
mandrel through a few turns the web is wrapped around it. The turret is then
indexed forward to move the said adjacent mandrel into the rewind position.

Abstract: A phase-modulated signal such as a quadrature phase-shift-keyed (QPSK) signal in
a wireless communication system is demodulated using sample timing based at least in part
on frequency information generated by frequency demodulating the phase-modulated signal.
The phase-modulated signal is separated into first and second portions, the first portion is
phase demodulated to generate demodulated symbols, and the second portion is frequency
demodulated to generate, e.g., a measure of the instantaneous frequency of the phase-modulated
signal. The instantaneous frequency measure is processed to identify one or
more symbol transitions, and the identified transitions are used to establish the sample timing
such that proper sampling of the symbols is ensured.

Abstract: A fastener tape (40) for use in the manufacture of
reclosable plastic bags (58) is provided. The fastener tape
(40) comprises an intermediate layer (42) and a reclosable
fastener profile (44) thereon. The intermediate layer (42)

These opposing portions are then sealed together at (63) by
a pair of seal bars. By carefully controlling the sealing
temperature, a consistent peel seal (63) is created between
the opposing portions of the intermediate layer (42)
without the need for an adhesive.

Abstract: An ink jet printing apparatus capable of forming
a high quality multivalued image without using a
plurality of print heads (30) and suited for a size
reduction is provided. In an ink jet printing
apparatus in which the electrothermal transducers (31)
are heated by a drive pulse to generate bubbles in ink
and in which the pressure of the bubbles is used to
eject ink droplets from nozzles onto a print medium to
print an image, the drive voltage and the drive pulse
width for the print head are changed simultaneously in
accordance with print data. For example, when
ejecting small droplets, the drive voltage for the
nozzles is increased and the drive pulse width
shortened. When ejecting large droplets, the drive
voltage is lowered and the drive pulse width elongated.

Filed: 2000-04-19
Abstract: The humidifying device for a fuel cell has a membrane, one side of which is exposed to cathode exhaust gas of a fuel cell for extracting water vapor from the exhaust gas. A connecting element connects the other side of the membrane to an anode or cathode gas supply to the fuel cell. In operation, water vapor permeates through the membrane and passes on through the connecting elements to humidify the gas being supplied to the fuel cell. A vacuum pump may additionally be provided to enhance the extraction of water vapor from the exhaust gas. A no metering unit allows accurate metering of the humidity of the cathode or anode gas supply.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing shaped, activated charcoal. According to the method, after being ground, carbon-bearing material, or a mixture of several carbon-bearing materials are rendered homogenous with a binding agent which contains water, or a mixture of several binding agents, at least one of which contains water. The mixture of carbon-bearing material and binding agent is then formed into shaped bodies. According to the invention, in order to consolidate the grain formation, these are dried until they exhibit a maximum total water content of 3% by wt. in relation to the shaped body. The shaped bodies which have been formed and dried in this manner are then subjected to a carbonization and subsequently a gas activation process.

composition containing an adverse physiological reaction-reducing effective
amount of a liposome which has, in addition to a bioactive agent, a lipid

adverse physiological reaction which may be experienced by the animal
upon administration of a liposome composition is reduced by way of the
presence of the surface agent-modified molecule in the liposome's lipid
bilayer.
