Title: Wind energy converter
IPC: F03D9/11
Filed: 1989-05-31
Granted: 1993-02-24
Abstract: In isolated operation or operation in parallel with the system in the case of known wind-power installations comprising a wind turbine or the like and a capacitor-excited asynchronous generator drivable by the wind turbine, a capacitor bank for excitation build-up or improvement of the efficiency is connected only after start-up. In order to make better use even of short wind surges, it is proposed that the exciter capacitor bank connected constantly in parallel with the output terminals of the asynchronous generator be of a size such that the capacitive exciter reactive power at the nominal working point is approximately twice as large as the total power of the asynchronous generator. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Une technique de recherche et de génération de vecteurs d'excitation améliorée est décrite pour un codeur de parole (100) de prédiction linéaire excitée par code (CELP) utilisant un carnet de code de vecteurs de code d'excitation. Un ensemble de vecteurs vm(n) de base M sont utilisés avec les mots de code de signaux d'excitation (i) pour générer un carnet de code de vecteurs d'excitation ui(n) selon une technique "de somme vectorielle" (120) de conversion des mots de code de sélection en une pluralité de signaux de données intérimaires, de multiplication de l'ensemble des vecteurs de base M par les signaux de données intérimaires, et d'addition des vecteurs résultants pour produire l'ensemble de vecteurs du carnet de code (2M). Le carnet de code entier de vecteurs d'excitation possible 2M est recherché effectivement en utilisant la technique de génération de somme vectorielle avec les vecteurs de base, sans jamais avoir à générer et évaluer chacun des vecteurs de code. En outre, seuls les vecteurs de base M ont besoin d'être stockés en mémoire (114), en comparaison à tous les vecteurs de code 2M.

Abstract: The invention refers to a process for the obtainment of a catalyst useful in the isomerization of light paraffins, fundamentally based on acid treatment of a synthetic mordenite at temperatures between 40 and 100o C followed by treatment with steam-air at temperatures between 300 and 600o C which makes it possible to optimize the SiO2/Al2O3 framework ratio and the amount of extraframework aluminum of the zeolite. The mordenite thus obtained is mixed with an inorganic refractory oxide such as Al2O3 and a metal of group VIII, basically Pt, is added in an amount between 0.1 and 0.5 % by weight referred to the final catalyst. The catalyst has been tested in the isomerization of light refinery fractions (C5 and C6) and has a high activity and selectivity of branched isomers with a low production of gases and a high octane number for the light gasoline obtained.

Abstract: A method for preparing purified ribonuclease dimers is provided which comprise the steps of dimerizing monomeric ribonuclease with a suberimidate coupling reagent, filtering out undimerized monomers and oligomers from the dimer solution using a series of ion exchange resin chromatography steps, monitoring the progress of the reaction through gel electrophoresis, and collecting the purified ribonuclease dimer product. The method is advantageous in that large amounts of the dimeric product can be obtained efficiently and relatively inexpensively, and the ribonuclease dimers so produced can be employed for their beneficial effects in combatting viral and bacterial infections without the cytotoxic effects normally associated with the ribonuclease monomer.
