Abstract: A PSA method incorporating the invention is
applicable to the separation of a preferred gas from a
mixture of the preferred gas and a less preferred gas.
The PSA method uses an adsorbent bed including one or
more layers of O 2  equilibrium selective adsorbents, and
comprises the steps of: pressurizing the adsorbent bed
to a high pressure with a feed of air to enable the
adsorbent bed to adsorb O 2 ; extracting from the bed at
bed pressure, a flow of N 2  and storing at least some of
the flow in a product tank; desorbing O 2  from the
adsorbent bed by feeding void gas in the bed enclosure
to a storage tank and venting the adsorbent bed to a
low pressure region; purging the adsorbent bed by
feeding thereto the void gas from the storage tank;
and repressurizing the adsorbent bed to an
intermediate pressure with a flow of void gas from the
storage tank.

Abstract: The method records follow times corresponding to a current speed in predetermined time intervals during a deactivated distance regulation, determines and stores index fields from the associated value pairs of speed and follow time, and derives an average follow time from the determined index fields. At activation of the distance regulation a nominal follow time is requested, and a pertinent index field with an average follow time is selected from the index fields. The method involves determining a nominal distance to a preceding vehicle in dependence of the speed of the vehicle by means of a corresponding calculation arrangement. Follow times corresponding to the current speed are recorded in selected time intervals during a deactivated distance regulation. Index fields are determined and stored from the associated value pairs of speed and follow time, and an average follow time is derived from the determined index fields. At activation of the distance regulation a nominal follow time is requested, and a pertinent index field with an average follow time is selected from the index fields.

Abstract: A system for automatically inspecting matter for
varying composition comprises one or more detection stations
131 through which one or more streams of matter are advanced
and particular materials therein are detected through their
diffusely reflected IR spectra, if any, and/or through their
variation of an electromagnetic field by their metallic
portions, if any. A row of light sources 105 distributed
across the overall width of one or more belt conveyors 104
may cause desired portions 125 of the stream to reflect
light diffusely onto a part-toroidal mirror 107 extending
over that overall width, whence the light is reflected, by a
rotating, polygonal mirror 108 through optical filters
dedicated to differing IR wavelengths, onto detectors (120)
the data output of which is utilised in controlling solenoid
valves operating air jet nozzles 116 which separate-out the
desired portions. Alternatively or additionally, an
oscillator 137 and an antenna 138 which extends over that
overall width generate an electromagnetic field through the
belt 104 and sensing coils 139 sense variations therein
produced by metallic portions of the stream passing through
the detection station 131 and the detection data produced by
the sensing coils 139 is used to control the solenoid valves
operating the nozzles 116 to separate-out the metallic
portions.

Abstract: In a variable bitrate speech encoder (4) frames of speech samples are derived from an input speech signal by framing means (20). From the frames of speech samples, LPC analysis parameters such as LPC parameters are determined by analysis means (22), and an excitation signal represented by codebook indices and codebood gains are determined by search means (36). These LPC coefficients and excitation parameters are transmitted in frames to a receiver (12). In order to be able to vary the bit rate of the speech encoder according to a bitrate setting R, the speech encoder (4) is provided with control means (30) which determines the fraction of the transmitted frames which carry LPC coefficients, which fraction can vary from 0.5 to 1. The LPC coefficients of the remaining frames are determined by interpolation by an interpolator (85) in the receiver (12). According to an embodiment of the invention, the LPC coefficients differing the most from values interpolated from their neighbors are transmitted to the receiver (12).

Inventor: GALUS TIMOTHY J
IPC: B01D53/26
Filed: 1998-05-29
Abstract: A heat exchanger comprising a precooler and reheater core adjacent a chiller core, first heat transfer passages extending through both cores through which incoming air passes in a first direction, second heat transfer passages extending through the chiller core through which coolant passes in heat exchange relationship with incoming air and perpendicular to the first direction, and third heat transfer passages extending through the precooler and reheater core through which cooled air from the chiller core passes in heat exchange relationship with the incoming air and perpendicular to the first direction. A manifold contiguous with both cores conducts chilled air from the chiller core to the third set of heat transfer passages. Incoming air is chilled in the chiller core and thereafter exchanges heat with the incoming air in the precooler and reheater core to precool the incoming air to form water droplets and to raise the temperature of the chilled air to a usable temperature. The precooled and moist incoming air exchanges heat with coolant in the chiller core such that the air is chilled to a low temperature condensing water vapor therein. The first heat transfer passages include fins staggered and disposed substantially perpendicular to the flow to create an undulating pattern there along for moisture separation within the precooler and chiller cores. The crossflow arrangement of passages in the cores of the heat exchanger advantageously enables the air leaving the precooler and reheater core to enter the chiller core directly without any intermediate channeling or piping.
