Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for the combustion of large solid fuels. In order to improve the beneficial effect of sound on combustion, a bed of the fuel (131, located on a grate (12), is exposed to the high particle velocity of a sound positively produced by an external low frequency sound generator (25, 20), the frequency of which is determined by the sound generator, to provide a reciprocating movement of combustion air and combustion gas through the fuel bed. The dimensions of the grate in a plane transverse to the reciprocating movement of the combustion air and the combustion gas are less than a quarter of the wave length of the sound generated by the sound generator.

Abstract: A switch module includes a base and an array of one or more switches spaced adjacent to one another on the base. Each switch includes a fixed contact as well as a moving contact and supporting arm therefor. All of the switches in the array are formed from a single planar conductive blank composed of a closed frame and first and second sets of opposed elongated cantilevered panels extending from opposite sides of the frame, one set of panels forming the stationary contacts and the other set of panels forming the moving contacts and supporting arms therefor. The blank is deformed to move all of the corresponding stationary and moving contacts into overlapping relation and to give bias to all of the contact arms so that they urge the associated moving contacts into or out of engagement with the corresponding fixed contacts. All of the switches while they are still integral parts of the deformed blank are mounted to the base so that the relative positions on the base of all of the switch contacts are predetermined by their positions in the deformed blank. Finally, the deformed mounted blank is severed at selected locations to electrically isolate some or all of the switch contacts mounted to the base. Various blanks for making the switch module are disclosed as is the method for doing same.

Abstract: An electrodynamic transducer (1) for use in a loudspeaker system for converting an n-bit digitized electric signal (11) into an acoustic signal comprises n voice-coil devices (4.1, 4.2, ... 4.n) which cooperate with a magnet system (3). The voice-coil devices each comprise a conductor whose length is the same for all the voice-coil devices. The areas of the perpendicular cross-sections of the conductors increase each time by a factor of two starting from the voice-coil device (4.n) corresponding to the least significant bit and going to voice-coil devices corresponding to consecutive more significant bits. In accordance with the invention steps are proposed which enable such a transducer to be constructed in a simple manner if the transducer is a moving-coil loudspeaker (Figure 2b) or if the transducer is a ribbon-type loudspeaker.

Abstract: A vacuum formable film fill sheet for cross-flow water cooling towers is disclosed having a repeating chevron pattern defining a series of zig-zag, serpentine, spaced ridges on opposed faces of the sheet with the ridges on one face of the sheet defining the grooves on the opposite face thereof and vice versa. The formed sheets are located in upright, horizontally spaced relationship between the overlying hot water distribution basin of the tower and the cold water basin thereof for generally horizontal flow of air past films of water flowing downwardly over the fill sheets. The angularity of the straight ridge sections of the chevron pattern with respect to one another, the vertical height of each repeat pattern, the transverse angularity of the ridges and the spacing between adjacent sheets has been unexpectedly found to provide significantly improved results as compared with prior chevron pattern fill sheets. A series of integral, spaced, transversely W-shaped spacers projecting in opposite directions from each of the sheets have notches in the intermediate V wall portions which complementally receive the outer foot portions of each spacer to maintain adjacent sheets in required horizontally spaced relationship. The spacers are inclined at angles which provide minimum interference with air flow and are oppositely inclined for required complemental interfit with the spacer of an adjacent fill sheet.

Abstract: There is a method for controlling the fuel supply of an internal combustion engine having a throttle valve in the intake air system. It is detected that an angular position of a crankshaft of the engine coincides with a predetermined crankshaft angular position. Whenever this coincidence is detected, the pressure in the intake air passage downstream of the throttle valve and the engine rotating speed or the value of the inverse number thereof is detected on the basis of the interval between the detections of the crankshaft angular position. The reference basic fuel supply amount into the engine is determined in accordance with the present de- : tection value P BAn  of the pressure in the intake air passage. The present reference value M eAVEn  having predetermined functional relations with regard to the present detection value M on  and previous reference value M eAVEn(n-1)  of the engine speed or of the value of the inverse number thereof is set. The correction fuel supply amount is decided on the basis of the present reference value M eAVEn  and is added to the basic fuel supply amount. Then the injection amount of fuel as much as the result of this addition is supplied into the engine. Thus, a driveability of the engine is improved.

Abstract: A test composition comprising glucose oxidase, a peroxidatively active component, a chromogenic indicator system capable of providing a detectable response and a borate buffer capable of providing an initial pH above about pH 7 is particularly useful for the semiquantitative determination of high range glucose, (i.e. glucose concentrations of 1,000 mg/dL to 10,000 mg/dL). A preferred indicator system is a water soluble iodide salt and poly-(vinylpyrrolidone). The use of a borate buffer capable of providing an initial pH above about pH 7 permits greatly improved resolution for the semiquantitative determination of high range glucose when the test composition is incorporated onto a carrier matrix to prepare a solid state unitary test device.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for determining on-line measures of both the average torque produced by an internal combustion engine, and the torque fluctuations (relative combustion efficiencies) of the cylinders of a multiple cylinder internal combustion engine. These techniques employ knowledge of crankshaft speed at the points of fastest and slowest crankshaft speed. Also, an engine-performance monitor is proposed for determining the above noted quantities on-line. The engine-performance monitor permits monitoring of engine performance to test control strategies for both engine fuel distribution systems and ignition systems. The techniques and engine-performance monitor can also be incorporated into a feedback system for controlling the performances of the various individual cylinders of a multiple cylinder internal combustion engine. Engine crankshaft speed is the basis for the calculations required. An on-line determination of engine torque can be incorporated into an engine control system or used for diagnostic purposes. One control system makes use of a measure of the cylinder-by-cylinder and combustion event-by-combustion event contributions to engine torque to optimize ignition or injection timing on a cylinder-by-cylinder basis. Non-uniform distribution of air and fuel among the cylinders caused by the inherent inaccuracies of the air and fuel delivery systems, as well as variations in power production caused by differences in cylinder-to-cylinder component sizing and operation, can thus be compensated. The techniques and hardware can be applied to spark- and compression-ignition engines. The availability of the torque measure permits a variety of other applications, such as a lean limit controller for lean burn engines, a means for compensating for significant variations in fuel usage, and a diagnostic tool for on-line engine diagnostics and off-line evaluation of engine designs and control strategies.
