Patent CA-2394011-A1 (CA)
Title: Fluidized spray tower
Inventor: CARSON WILLIAM D
IPC: F23N5/24
Filed: 2002-07-17
Abstract: A fluidized spray vessel. A vessel design is provided for recovering heat from gaseous heat streams. The vessel utilizes a semi-fluidized bed for obtaining desirable liquid/vapor contact times. A spray section is provided in which liquid is sprayed through nozzles designed to provide a mean droplet size having a terminal velocity of from about sixty percent to about ninety five percent of the superficial upward gas velocity. These spray tower design criteria enhance spray tower performance, and thus enables more efficient heat recovery to be practiced, particularly in systems where relatively low grade heat sources are encountered.

Title: Baud-rate timing recovery
Inventor: HWANG EUNJOO
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2001-01-12
Abstract: A system and a method for simple and robust baud-rate timing recovery suitab le for jointly operating with a decision-feedback equalizer are disclosed. Timi ng functions for timing recovery are extracted only from filter coefficients of  feed-forward and feedback filters. The relation between the coefficients of feed-forward filter and the impulse response is derived under a zero-forcing  condition while the relation between the coefficients of the feedback filter  and the impulse response is known. Based on the relations, several timing functions with varied degrees of computation are derived, which can drive th e sampling instances approximately at the peak point of the channel impulse response. Since the derived timing functions uses equalizer coefficients, th ey work jointly with equalization even without using a training sequence. Simulation results over 5-m and 100-m UTP Category-5 cables at 125M Baud sho w fast and robust timing recovery operation in a phase-locked loop.

Inventor: ANDERSON TOM
IPC: A23K1/14
Filed: 2002-09-17
Abstract: A complete integral pelletized animal feed which is easily and economically prepared with a potato component. This invention combines hay, oats, and potato waste with a primary and secondary supplement premix. The potato component acts as a binder which makes it possible to pelletize the combined components. The composite animal feed is a complete food requiring no further supplementation. The instant invention provides an economical, one-step, integral, composite animal feed which incorporates potato waste and a primary and secondary supplement premix forming a complete animal feed.

Inventor: SIDDIQUI ANWAR
IPC: H04L9/36
Filed: 2002-12-30
Abstract: The present efficient packet encryption method decreases the computation time to encrypt and decrypt successive packets of plaintext data.  An S-vector is generated and the S-vector is used to encrypt successive packets of plaintext, thus reducing the per packet encryption/decryption time. The formula for encrypting successive packets includes use of the packet sequence number with a third variable injected to eliminate the predictability of the variables, thus making the present efficient packet encryption method more secure. A fourth variable is injected into the calculations to generate an encryption stream that does not repeat as frequently to provide additional security from hackers. For encrypting a packet having a long payload of plaintext, a packet byte sequence number is used to generate an encryption stream that is less likely to repeat within a particular packet.

Abstract: The cryogenic processor comprises a tray or multiple trays that receives liquid feed composition from a delivery source. A plurality of orifices or combination of orifices and feed droppers, hereinafter feed assembly, associated with the tray are specifically arranged and adapted for discharging uniformly sized droplets of the liquid composition from the tray. In a key aspect of the improvement, a regulated flow of ambient air is provided to the feed assembly by a venturi assembly or other source of partial vacuum. The vacuum assembly allows ambient air, possibly filtered, to be pulled into the cryogenic processor and across the feed assembly which prevents liquid composition from freezing and accumulating in the flow channels of the feed assembly, thus allowing continuous formation of uniformly sized beads.  Adjustable door inlets are adapted and arranged as a means to control the flow of incoming ambient air as well as the flow of outgoing gaseous refrigerant.
