Abstract: The opening of a flow control valve 15, which controls the
amount of a cooling media transferred to a radiator side, is
controlled by a brushless motor 11. The rectifying switch signal
is received by a phase sequence detecting circuit 22a to control an
up-down counter 22b. The counted value from the counter 22b is
calculated by a calculation circuit 22c, making it possible to grasp
the opening of the flow control valve 15. By feeding this back to
the ECU to make a calculation together with other drive
parameters, ideal cooling control for an engine can be realized.
Particularly, since the use of the opening sensor for the flow
control valve 15 is unnecessary, an apparatus can be made into a
small size with a low price.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de cuve d'électrolyse d'aluminium comprenant un module de commande de cuve, afin de suivre et commander une cuve d'électrolyse d'aluminium associée. Le module de commande de cuve mesure une tension d'utilisation et un signal d'entrée de courant de bus de la cuve, et calcule l'impédance d'après ces données. Le module de commande de cuve contient un prédicteur d'effet d'anode, ce qui permet de prévoir le moment où une cuve d'électrolyse d'aluminium va présenter un effet d'anode. Le prédicteur d'effet d'anode applique aux données d'impédance de cuve une fonction statistique d'ordre élevé afin de produire un spectre représentatif du comportement de la cuve. La fonction statistique est, par exemple, une fonction de cohérence de troisième ordre des données d'impédance, ce qui est d'un ordre plus élevé qu'un spectre de puissance d'ordre deux. La fonction de cohérence capte la corrélation ou l'interdépendance entre les échantillons qui constituent le spectre de puissance. Le spectre d'ordre élevé présente des tracés ou des allures qui changent lorsque la cuve passe d'un état stationnaire à un état d'effet d'anode. Le prédicteur d'effet d'anode détecte les changements d'allure du spectre comme moyen de détermination d'un effet d'anode futur. Lorsqu'un effet d'anode imminent est détecté, le prédicteur d'effet d'anode informe le module de commande de cuve qui prend des mesures afin de minimiser l'impact d'un effet d'anode imminent.

Abstract: A feed line (10) for supplying a suspension in the distribution system (20) of the stock flow (30) of a paper machine is provided with a supsension equalizer (40) arranged upstream from the distribution system (20) and connected thereto by means of a straight feed piece. The suspension equalizer acts as a turbulence generator, whereby it sets the suspension into a state of turbulence with such force that the suspension is homogenized and the acceleration profile of the suspension is equalled out inside the cross-section of the feed line. This also enables optimum stock flow conditions to be created directly prior to the stock flow or even with relatively long feed lines running through windings or curves in order to meet the quality requirements for paper production. In one preferred embodiment, the turbulence generator consists of a tube section that is similar in shape to a venturi tube with an abruptly reduced cross section (42), followed by a gradual expansion of said cross section (45).

Abstract: A method for analyzing traffic data generated by a plurality of web servers, which host a single web site. The site is mirrored on each server. A traffic data hit is generated responsive to each access of one of the servers. The hit includes data representing the time of the access. Each data hit is stored in a log file on the server accessed. The first-stored data hit is read from each server. Each of the read data hits are compared, and the oldest data hit is passed to a log file analyzer. The next-stored data hit is read from the server from which the passed data hit was read, and a second comparison is performed on the read data hits, with the oldest data hit being passed to the log file analyzer. This process continues until all of the data hits are read, compared, and passed to the log file analyzer. This results in passing all of the data hits to the log file analyzer in the chronological order in which the hits were generated.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une préforme de fibre optique guide d'ondes et une fibre optique guide d'ondes, étirée à partir de cette dernière, une modification de la densité et donc des indices de réfraction de la couche de gainage (42) étant induite d'une manière présélectionnée, axialement le long de la préforme et de la fibre guide d'ondes associée. La modification axiale de la densité de la couche de gainage (42) est due à la fraction du volume de gainage qui est constituée d'air ou d'un verre dont la composition est différente de celle du verre de la gaine de base. La modification axiale des indices de gainage modifie la répartition de l'énergie monomode, ce qui modifie les paramètres clés relatifs à la fibre guide d'ondes, tels que l'ampleur et le signe de la dispersion, la longueur d'onde de coupure et la longueur d'onde de dispersion zéro. L'invention porte également sur des procédés de fabrication de structures possédant une couche de gainage variable axialement ainsi que sur des préformes, dont des fibres guides d'ondes étirées à partir de ces dernières, qui guident la lumière grâce à la structure cristalline opto-électronique de la longueur totale de la couche de gainage ou de segments de cette dernière.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé de caustification amélioré des liqueurs de Bayer que l'on utilise lors du raffinage de l'alumine. Ce procédé consiste à faire réagir de la chaux avec des ions aluminate dans une liqueur de Bayer, ceci dans un premier réacteur et dans des conditions régulées de températures basses à modérées (entre 70 et 80° C), puis à agiter le tout. On obtient ainsi pratiquement uniquement une espèce hydrocalumite et des ions hydroxyle. On utilise ensuite un second réacteur dans lequel l'espèce hydrocalumite obtenue est chauffée tout en restant en contact avec la liqueur de Bayer dans des conditions régulées, ceci de manière à faire réagir l'espèce hydrocalumite avec la liqueur et à former du carbonate de calcium, des ions aluminate et des ions hydroxyle. On obtient ainsi une liqueur de Bayer caustifiée tout en augmentant sensiblement l'efficacité d'utilisation de la chaux et/ou en minimisant les pertes en alumine.
