Title: Flue gas scrubbing apparatus
Inventor: LASLO DENNIS J
IPC: B01D53/77
Filed: 1995-10-23
Granted: 2006-03-28
Abstract: A gas-liquid contactor is provided for remov- ing gases and particulate matter from flue gases, such as those which are produced by processing operations of the type carried out in utility and in- dustrial facilities. The gas-liquid contactor includes a tower into which a slurry is introduced for absorb- ing gases and particulate matter, and is configured so as to eliminate the requirement for a pump to de- liver the slurry to the tower. In addition, the tower is configured to accommodate a maximum flue gas flow velocity through the tower while maintaining proper operation of the tower. Liquid particles in which the gases and particulate matter are entrained are collected in a tank, through which the slurry is recycled to the tower. The level of the slurry within the tank is higher than the entry point of the slurry into the tower, such that the slurry returns to the tower under the force of gravity.

Patent CA-2184417-C (CA)
Inventor: AYANOGLU ENDER
IPC: H04W88/08
Filed: 1996-08-29
Granted: 2001-11-20
Abstract: The present invention is a reliable data link layer protocol to transport ATM cells over a wireless point-to-point link. The protocol ensures that the cells are transported reliably by use of a sliding window transport mechanism with selective repeat automatic repeat request (ARQ) and forward error correction (FEC). The protocol minimizes ATM header overhead by means of header compression and provides per-cell FEC whose size can be changed adaptively. The protocol also provides parity cells for recovery from errors that cannot be corrected using the per-cell FEC field. The number of these cells as well as the size of a window or frame can also be adaptively changed. In addition, the window can be terminated to request an immediate acknowledgment

Title: Automated branch flow calibration in a hvac distribution system
Inventor: AHMED OSMAN
IPC: F24F11/00
Filed: 1997-02-20
Granted: 2000-05-16
Abstract: A HVAC system automates the process of calibrating the individual branch flows of the system. For each branch of the system, a damper is closed and flow values at the output of the prime mover and at the input of the damper are measured. The damper is then opened 50% and again flow values at the output of the prime mover and at the input of the damper are measured. A flow coefficient, which correlates the flow difference measured at the output of the prime mover with the flow difference measured at the input of the damper, is then determined. The flow through each damper of each branch is calibrated in this manner, resulting in an overallbalancing of the HVAC system. The automated process of branch flow calibration eliminates the tedious and time consuming process of both manual steps of measuring the branch flows and determining the flow coefficients as was performed in the prior art.
