Abstract: An improved design for a switched reluctance motor
(1) is disclosed that keeps the motor cool during operation
and thereby improves the performance and reliability of the
motor. The improved design employs three centrifugal fans
(17, 19, 21) mounted to the motor shaft (10), which are
used to create two independent airflow paths, one of which
cools the electronic components of the motor. The improved
design also divides the functions performed by a single
printed circuit board into two circuit boards (23, 25), an
upper circuit board (23) and a lower circuit board (25).
Another feature of the improved design includes locating
the position/speed sensing encoder (43) immediately below
one (21) of the centrifugal cooling fans. The disclosed
construction provides for increased dissipation of heat
that is generated by the motor (1) and its electronic
components. In this configuration, the printed circuit
boards (17, 19, 21) and other electronic components are
located in such a manner that air can be circulated in a
path to remove heat from these components.

Abstract: The invention relates to a protective relay arrangement for the short-circuit and
earth fault protection of an electricity distribution network, the arrangement
comprising at least two protective relays of the same substation, each adapted
to monitor one or more physical variables, such as current and/or its phase
angle, of an electricity distribution network line for detecting a short-circuit or
earth fault on the line, and comprising means for measuring said physical variables,
for comparing the measurement results with corresponding limit values,
and, upon detection of a short-circuit or earth fault, for emitting control signals
to isolate the faulted line from the electricity distribution network. In accordance
with the invention, the arrangement further comprises a data transmission
bus within the substation, such as a so-called field bus, and that each
relay further comprises means for transmitting the measuring results and information
derived therefrom via the data transmission bus to the other relays
of the arrangement and means for receiving these measuring results and information
derived therefrom from at least one, any other relay of the arrangement,
and for using the results when making a decision to emit a control signal.

Abstract: In an audio processing arrangement (2) input signals from a plurality of input sources (4, 6) are weighted by weighting factors x and y using weighting elements (10, 12). The weighted input signals are combined to a combined signal by an adder (18). The output signal of the adder (18) constitutes the output of the audio processing arrangement. In order to pronounce the signal with the strongest signal, the weighting coefficients (x, y) are controlled to maximize the output signal of the adder (18) under the constraint that the sum of the squares of the weighting coefficients is equal to a constant.

Abstract: The present invention provides a numerical analyzing
method, by which equations of every element of a phenomenon
represented by partial differential equations can be solved
independently from each other by the direct method or the
iteration method without using any collocation method such as
the domain decomposition method, the finite difference method
or the finite element method. 
     A defined domain is decomposed in mesh (S1); state
vectors in each element of the mesh are approximated by
polynomials of finite number of terms with respect to
coordinate variables (S2): and then conditions between
different undetermined coefficients satisfying given govering
equations are obtained. Next equations representing
relationships between the undetermined coefficients of each
element (element state equations) required for satisfying
continuity conditions of state vectors on peripheral
boundaries of every element are obtained by the least squares
method to obtain a square matrix equation (S4). Further an
element matrix at that time is reduced by decomposition (S5),
taking the boundary conditions given on the periphery into
account, and square matrix equations thus obtained are solved
either by the iteration method as it is, in case where they
are separated from each other, or by the direct method as a
whole (S6). State vectors at arbitrary points are calculated
by using calculation results obtained in this way.
