Title: Cooling of fuel cells
Inventor: BUNKER RONALD SCOTT
IPC: H01M8/00
Filed: 2003-08-06
Abstract: Fuel cells (50) for example solid oxide fuel cells require cooling to maintain temperature levels and remove thermal energy generated by the fuel cells (50). The present invention provides a fuel cell assembly (10) comprising at least one fuel cell (50). The fuel cell comprises an anode (22), a cathode (18), an electrolyte (20) interposed therebetween, an interconnect (24) which is in intimate contact with at least one of the anode (22), the cathode (18) and the electrolyte (20), at least one fluid flow channel (95) which is disposed within the fuel cell (50), and at least one fiber (40) which is disposed within the fluid flow channel (95). The fiber (40) disposed within the fluid flow channel (95) disrupts a fluid flow during travel of the fluid within the fluid flow channel (95) to generate unsteady wakes. These unsteady wakes enhance the local heat transfer characteristics adjacent to at least one fiber (40). A higher Reynolds number enhances the heat transfer characteristics proportionately. Enhanced heat transfer characteristics increase the ability to remove heat more efficiently and more effectively. The enhanced heat transfer characteristics thus improve cooling ability and enable the maintenance of predetermined thermal gradients and temperature levels across the fuel cell assembly (10).

Abstract: The steering control system uses three-dimensional cartography to define the demultiplication ratio of the steering linkage. This varies as a function of the longitudinal speed (V) of the vehicle, and also the angle of rotation (alpha) of the steering wheel  The steering comprises wheel actuators (1,2) which are controlled by signals established by a computer (3). The computer calculates these signals using a three-dimensional cartography system defining the demultiplication ratio of the linkage, as a function of the longitudinal speed (V) of the vehicle, and the angle of rotation (alpha) of the steering wheel. In the course of successive iterations (i), the longitudinal speed (V) and the steering wheel angle of rotation (alpha) are sampled, and the demultiplication ratio calculated in the course of each of these iterations. The cartography is established in such a way that, for each value of the angle of rotation of the steering wheel, the relation between the longitudinal speed of the vehicle and the demultiplication ratio (R) follows a curve with a non-zero derivative.

Abstract: The shuttle reservoir has a collecting (2A) and a deploying (2B) form. It is repeatedly lowered to the seabed (7) in its collecting form, where it connects to an evacuation device (6) in the hull (6) of the damaged vessel and is filled and sealed shut. Integral floatation devices lift it to a surface vessel in its deployed form, where it is emptied or stored for transportation to shore : The evacuation device (6) contains a pipe and a first valve acting with an opening in the hull and/or the vessel to recover the effluents by lifting them into the evacuation device. The shuttle reservoir has at least one main internal orifice (5) which works with the evacuation device. These steps are repeated with the same shuttle reservoir until the required amount of effluent has been recovered. The shuttle reservoir has a rigid dome with an open circular base, preferably with a shell shape in vertical section, a rigid circular base and a flexible side wall which can be folded up into the filling position and unfolding as it fills to the deployed shape. The floatation elements are integral inside the dome and are preferably a syntactic mousse. The centre of buoyancy is above the apparent centre of gravity in the water. The reservoir can be moved by floating it into a submersible bridge vessel without having to lift it. The shuttle reservoir is held near the sunken vessel by an anchor cable to the seabed and a second anchor cable to the vessel. The reservoir is automatically decoupled from the sunken vessel before it rises to the surface when traction is applied matching the Archimedes force of the reservoir and its load, transmitted by the anchor cable to detach it from the vessel or break the cable at a threshold value. The speed with which the reservoir rises is controlled by a weighted cable or chain from the surface to the base of the reservoir.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the weight-accurate filling of ingot molds in a non-iron casting machine, e.g. a copper anode casting machine or a zinc anode casting machine, which is configured in the form of casting wheels that are use for production in a fully mechanized casting operation and are provided with the ingot molds. The aim of the invention is to obtain the desired precise-weight quality of a piece and exact plane parallelism of the bordering surfaces thereof. Said aim is achieved by carrying out the following steps: first, a liquid metal is introduced into an intermediate trough ( 4, 4 ') at a regulated mass flow rate, the continuous dynamic weight increase being simultaneously determined; second, liquid metal is fed into a dosing trough ( 4, 4 ') which is located on each side of the intermediate trough ( 4, 4 ') by alternately tilting the intermediate trough ( 4, 4 ') on one side followed by the other. After filling the first dosing trough ( 5 ), the intermediate trough ( 4 ) is tilted in the direction of the second dosing trough ( 5 ') while the mass of an anode is cast from the first filled dosing trough into one of the ingot molds ( 10, 10 ') that are arranged on the casting wheel ( 9, 9 ') by means of a controlled tilting movement. Also disclosed is a device for carrying out the inventive method.

IPC: G01N21/78
Filed: 2003-04-18
Abstract: A competitive assay to determine the presence and concentration of an intracellular analyte (e.g., cAMP) in a sample is provided. All of the steps of the assay can be performed on the same assay plate, thereby eliminating the need to transfer the cells from a tissue culture plate on which the cells are grown, induced and lysed to a separate assay plate. The assay procedure includes combining, in a reaction chamber provided with a capture antibody, an antibody for the analyte, the sample to be assayed, and a conjugate of the analyte and an enzyme such as alkaline phosphatase. The mixture is incubated and washed and an enzyme labile substrate (e.g., a chemiluminescent, fluorescent or calorimetric substrate) is added. The assay can also be performed with a tagged analyte (e.g., an analyte having a radioactive or fluorescent tag) instead of an enzyme conjugate.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes destinés à estimer des expositions à des facteurs à variation temporelle d'un instrument financier individuel ou d'un portefeuille d'instruments de ce type, au moyen de la solution d'un problème d'optimisation dynamique multicritères soumis à des contraintes, en vue d'obtenir une fonction d'erreur d'estimation et une ou plusieurs fonctions d'erreur de transition à réduire sur une durée donnée. Les expositions aux facteurs relaient l'influence des facteurs sur le rendement de l'instrument ou du portefeuille. La fonction d'erreur d'estimation produit l'erreur d'estimation à chaque intervalle de temps entre le rendement de l'ensemble d'actifs et une somme de produits de chaque exposition au facteur et de son facteur respectif. Chaque fonction d'erreur de transition produit une erreur de transition de chaque exposition au facteur entre les intervalles de temps. Dans un mode de réalisation, les contraintes peuvent comprendre une contrainte budgétaire et des contraintes de non-négativité s'appliquant à une partie ou à la totalité des expositions aux facteurs. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, ce procédé et ce système peuvent être appliqués à l'estimation d'une pondération à variation temporelle utilisée dans un modèle pour relayer l'influence d'une ou de plusieurs variables indépendantes sur une variable économique ou financière dépendante, au moyen de la solution d'un problème dynamique multicritères soumis à des contraintes, en vue de réduire les termes d'erreurs d'estimation et d'erreurs de transition.

Abstract: A ceramic green body is formed by gelcasting. In release of the formed
ceramic green body from a mold, the ceramic green body is heated so that a
solvent contained in the ceramic green body is moved therefrom. The moved
solvent forms a solvent film between the outer surface of the ceramic green body
and the inner surface of the mold. The solvent film facilitates release of the
ceramic green body from the mold, thereby preventing occurrence of damage to
the ceramic green body during release of the ceramic green body from the mold.
