Title: Module case and hollow fiber membrane module using the same
Inventor: KWANG-JIN LEE
IPC: B01D63/02
Filed: 2010-06-03
Abstract: A hollow fiber membrane module is disclosed, which is capable of preventing a bundle of hollow fiber membranes from being separated from a module case, the hollow fiber membrane module for accommodating a bundle of hollow fiber membranes closely held together through the use of potting agent, comprising a module case comprising: a first inner surface serving as a projection on which the bundle of hollow fiber membranes is stably placed; a second inner surface upwardly extending from one end of the first inner surface, the second inner surface including at least one separation-preventing groove to prevent the bundle of hollow fiber membranes from being separated from the module case; a third inner surface downwardly extending from the other end of the first inner surface; and a fourth inner surface connected to the third inner surface. In the module case of the present invention, separation-preventing grooves are formed in an inner surface of a module case, and are filled with a potting agent for potting a bundle of hollow fiber membranes into the module case. Thus, even though an adhesive strength between the potting agent and the module case is reduced, the potting agent filled in the separation-preventing grooves prevents the bundle of hollow fiber membranes from being separated from the module case.

Title: Device and method for storage and transfer of thermal energy
Inventor: MAGALDI MARIO
IPC: F24S10/70
Filed: 2011-04-22
Abstract: A device (1) for storage and conveyance of thermal energy for an energy production system, which device (1) is apt to receive the solar radiation and is based on the use of a modular fluidizable granular bed and a heat exchanger associated thereto. The modular fluidization allows the selective storage of heat or thermal transfer to the exchanger. At the basis of such use, there are the favorable features of thermal exchange of the fluidized beds and the effective convective conveyance of the heat subsequent to the mobility of the granular phase. Both these features are linked to the possibility of imparting a rheological behavior to a granular solid that is comparable to that of a fluid, actually thanks to the fluidization thereof. Such device mainly comprises: - a containment casing (2) provided with one or more cavities receiving the solar radiation (20); - a fluidizable bed of granular particles (3) suitable for thermal energy storage and conveyance, arranged inside the containment casing (2); - one feed inlet for feeding a fluidization gas through the bed (3) of particles by a suitable distributor (21); - a heat exchanger (4) immersed in the fluidizable granular bed and crossed by a working fluid; and - a feeding inlet for a fuel gas (401) as additional thermal input to increase the system management flexibility.

Title: Single step processing of memory mapped accesses in a hypervisor
Inventor: GRUBB J ALAN
IPC: G06F12/00
Filed: 2011-09-16
Abstract: Trapping and/or processing of read/write accesses to hardware devices represented to the host through a memory mapped space may he performed without knowledge of the processor's instruction set or semantics of the processor's instructions. A single step routine may be executed to recognize page faults occurring from read/write accesses to emulated memory pages and causing the guest to retry the operation on a single step buffer. The hypervisor may perform post-operation processing on the single step buffer after the guest retries and completes the read or write access. For example, on a read request, the single step routine may place the guest value in the single step buffer for reading by the guest on a retry operation. On a write request, the single step routine may direct the guest to retry the write operation into the single step buffer. After the retry operation the single step routine may read the guest value from the single step buffer and place the guest value in a register of an appropriate emulated system.
