Patent EP-0687853-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KOBAYASHI WILLIAM THORU
IPC: F23D11/38
Filed: 1995-06-12
Abstract: A combustion method is provided for carrying out combustion with reduced generation of nitrogen oxides. The combustion method involves partially combusting a fluid fuel stream with a low velocity oxidant and thereafter mixing and combusting the resulting product with a secondary oxidant stream diluted with ambient gas. The velocity of the secondary oxidant stream is either increased to reduce the nitrogen oxides emission level or adjusted to provide the desired secondary oxidant/low velocity oxidant ratio which is useful for further decreasing the formation of nitrogen oxides. Normally, increasing the ratio and/or velocity further decreases the nitrogen oxides emission level. When liquid fuel is employed, it is atomized with atomizing fluid in such a manner to produce a liquid fuel stream having a very narrow spray angle. The production of such a stream allows the burner to be operated without water cooling. Moreover, such a stream, when combined with the above combustion method, unexpectedly provides effective and efficient combustion with reduced generation of nitrogen oxides.

Abstract: The grid of parallel lines is generated with the aid of computer graphics giving a specific ratio of the line width (lo) to the periodicity (do). The background thus created is then varied by respacing in accordance with a modulation function having preselected parameters. Finally the line width is adjusted so that its ratio to the interline spacing reverts to the original value. The initially straight lines may also become curved and a pseudo-relief image may be created by erasure of those parts of the lines which lie within its contours.

Abstract: A fluid dispensing control for controlling the dispensing of a fluid by a metering valve through a nozzle onto a workpiece. An initial value of a flow characteristic of the fluid is determined that is correlated to the relationship between the flow rate of the fluid and nozzle pressure. Desired nozzle pressure values are periodically determined by evaluating a model of flow rate of the fluid through nozzle in response to the initial value of the flow characteristic and a desired flow rate value. Thereafter, the control provides command signals to the metering valve as a function of the desired nozzle pressures. A new value of the flow characteristic is determined as a function of the measured volume of fluid dispensed during the dispensing cycle to the measured nozzle pressure. During a subsequent dispensing cycle, the control determines the desired nozzle pressures by evaluating the model of flow rate of the fluid through the nozzle as a function of the new value of the flow characteristic. The process of reevaluating the flow characteristic over successive dispensing cycles as a function of measured volumes of fluid dispensed and measured nozzle pressures, and using those updated values to reevaluate the model of flow rate of fluid through the nozzle, is repeated.

Abstract: A long-lived, lightweight, and quickly and precisely charged storage capacitor power supply capable of stably supplying electric power to a load. The power supply has a capacitor block consisting of capacitors connected in series , in parallel or in any combination of series and parallel. The power supply further includes a charging circuit for charging the block, a charging power supply connected with the block via the charging circuit, and a charge-limiting circuit. This limiting circuit detects the voltage across the terminals of the block and limits charging of the block if the voltage reaches a given value. One embodiment of the invention further includes a charge-limiting circuit, a full charge-detecting circuit, and a residual electricity-detecting circuit connected in parallel with the block. The charge-limiting circuit senses that the voltage across the terminals of the block exceeds the given value and causes the charging current to bypass the block. The full charge-detecting circuit senses that the charge-limiting circuit is operated and determines that full charge is attained. The residual electricity-detecting circuit finds the residual electric power from the voltage across the terminals of the block. Another embodiment has a first and a second capacitor blocks. The voltage across the terminals of the first block is detected. The first block is charged from the second block until the detected voltage reaches a given voltage. The first block supplies electric power directly to the load.

(DVD) uses one of a first light (31) and a second light

In the optical pickup apparatus, laser light sources (31,

wavelength for the DVD (8) and second light having longer
wavelength for the CD-R (9), respectively. An objective
lens (37) has a predetermined focal length in accordance

the DVD (8). An optical path control unit (32-35)
controls the path of lights (31, 40) so that the light
emitted from one of the laser light sources is directed to
the objective lens (37) and the light output from the
objective lens (37) is directed to said optical detection
unit (39). A phase shift unit (38) which is located
between the optical path control unit (32-35) and the
objective lens (37), shifts the phase of the second light
proceeding from said optical path control unit (32-35) to
the objective lens (37), to thereby reduce the size of a
beam spot which is formed on the position of the
information recording surface in the CD-R (9).
