Patent EP-0426622-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CANTONI ANGELO
IPC: G01F23/284
Filed: 1990-09-24
Abstract: The device of the invention comprises means for generating a radio-frequency signal, transmitting antenna means (33) fed by the radio-frequency signal to establish a radio-frequency field coupled electromagnetically to the fluid contained in the tank, receiving antenna means (34) to receive the signal emitted by the transmitting antenna (33) after said signal has passed through the fluid, and means for measuring the strength of the signal received by the receiving antenna (34) to provide a signal indicative of the properties of the transmissive medium lying between the transmitting antenna (33) and the receiving antenna (34). 
     The transmitting antenna (33) and receiving antenna (34) are enclosed within a container (30, 31) which is constructed of low loss material unattackable by any fluids contained in the tank, and is arranged to prevent direct contact between the antennas (33, 34) and the fluid or fluids contained in the tank.

Title: Kinetic enzyme assay for determining the co 2? content of body fluids using pep carboxylase with inhibitor.
Inventor: CUNNINGHAM BRYCE A
IPC: C12Q1/48
Filed: 1990-07-20
Abstract: An improved kinetic assay is provided for spectrophotometrically determining dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) in body fluid wherein at pH 8.0 the CO2 is present substantially as bicarbonate ion (HCO3). The sample is subjected to a reaction mixture containing phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) which enzymatically catalyzes conversion of HCO3 to oxaloacetate (OA). The OA produced is subject to a second reaction mixture containing NADH and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) which reduces the OA to malate and oxidizes the NADH to NAD+. The CO2 level in the sample may be indirectly determined by measuring the change in NADH concentration. An inhibitor is added to the reaction mixture which renders the reaction kinetics of the system essentially first order over the entire bicarbonate concentration range of interest. Best results have been obtained through use of an inhibitor which provides an anion selected from the group consisting of Cl03, Cl04, SCN, or I.

Abstract: Le dispositif est utilisé pour le traitement de signaux émanant d'un détecteur à résistance (20) qui, lors d'une alimentation par un signal de distribution (V) consécutivement à l'action exercée par une grandeur physique de mesure, produit un effet de mesure représentatif de la variation de la résistance électrique en fonction de la grandeur de mesure. Le dispositif comprend un circuit de traitement de signaux (2) fonctionnant selon le principe du transport de charge quantifié, au moyen de montages commutateur-condensateur. Le circuit de traitement de signaux (2) produit une balance de charge, par intégration inverse de paquets de charge de mesure, fonction de l'effet de mesure, et de paquets de charge de compensation, indépendants de l'effet de mesure, et fournit un signal de sortie analogique (UA) correspondant au résultat d'intégration. L'alimentation du détecteur est influencée par la rétroaction du signal de sortie analogique ou d'un signal de rétroaction en rapport constant avec celui-ci, de manière à fournir la balance de charge. Grâce à cette rétroaction, le signal de sortie analogique est réglé de manière à être proportionnel au résultat de mesure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a seal (12-1), constituted by a water-expansible portion (13-1) and a water-unexpansible portion (14-1), for preventing water from leaking in a construction joint. The expansible portion (13-1) surrounds the unexpansible portion (14-1) everywhere except on a side of the unexpansible portion (14-1) which is adhered to one of two mutually facing surfaces of the construction joint. The unexpansible portion (14-1) is sized, relative to the overall size of the seal (12-1), particularly in the width dimension, so that it adheres with sufficient strength to one of the mutually facing surfaces of the construction joint so as not to become pulled off in use. An effective seal thus is maintained even in a swollen state.

Abstract: The compression of successive blocks of digital data is optimized by selecting between different compression algorithms or different data formats on a block-by-block basis. In one application, digitized interlaced video signals are processed for transmission in a compressed form. A set of pixel data presented in a field format is compressed to provide a first compressed video signal. The set of pixel data is also presented in a frame format and compressed to provide a second compressed video signal. Errors are evaluated in the first and second compressed video signals. The compressed video signal having the least error is selected for further processing. The technique is repeated for successive sets of pixel data and the selected signals are encoded to identify them as field formatted or frame formatted signals. The encoded selected signals are then combined to provide a compressed video signal data stream for transmission. Apparatus for receiving and decoding the signals is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for heat supply of supply areas, the two energy sources, electric energy and heat being generated jointly in a generating plant by means of the known process of combined heat and power generation, and being jointly used in the supply area to cover the heat requirement. Designing the district heating power station with back pressure turbines having a coupling coefficient of 1 generates electric energy which is proportional to the characteristic of the thermal consumption and can thus once again be used for heating purposes. It is possible by means of a system-specific control for the proportions of electric energy and district heat to be varied and matched in each case to consumption. As a result, this process becomes independent of other systems, e.g. from the grid, and can be operated independently. The electric energy is then expediently also transported to the consumer via a dedicated heating current distribution network.
