Abstract: A heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) device (104) which includes both heating and cooling operating modes provides an easy-to-use interface (110) for selecting the operating parameters of the device (104). The interface (110) allows the input of a setpoint temperature at which the HVAC device (104) conditions the ambient temperature of a space (102). A mode switch-over algorithm (200) uses the .setpoint temperature, the sensed temperature from the conditioned space, and prestored threshold values that depend on the device's operating capacities, to determine when to change the device between heating and cooling modes. Also, within each of the respective modes, a heating (300) or cooling (400) algorithm controls the engaging and disengaging of the heating and cooling elements of the device (104) to maintain the temperature of the conditioned space (102) within a desired comfort zone. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention relates to an improvement in a purification process for producing those liquid copper based complexes of β-diketones and, particularly the monovalent copper complexes of β-diketones, which are suited for application by chemical vapor deposition in the electronics industry. In the basic process for preparing a copper based complex, a reactive copper compound is reacted with a fluorinated β-diketonate and an organo source such as an olefinic source or one having acetylenic unsaturation. Purification is effected by contacting reaction product with a double deionized deoxygenated water source and preferably an acid/water source. An aqueous layer and an organic layer are formed with the aqueous layer containing byproducts and the organic phase containing product.

Abstract: In a method for bending, in pairs, panes placed one upon the other, heated to their softening temperature, the pair or panes is deposited on a bending frame and prebent under action of the force of gravity. The prebent pair of panes is transferred onto a suction bending mold with a concave forming face, the underside of the lowermost pane being supported at least on the peripheral edge of the forming face. By applying a depression for a predetermined length of time, the air is sucked out of the intermediate space between the underside of the lowermost pane and the suction bending mold, and the pair of panes is pressed by atmospheric pressure onto the concave forming face of the suction bending mold. After the end of the application of the depression, the finished molded pair of panes is transferred from the suction bending mold onto a transport device and is cooled.

Abstract: For producing a fingerprint of an audio signal, use is made of information defining a plurality of predetermined fingerprint modi, all of the fingerprint modi relating to the same type of fingerprint, the fingerprint modi, however, providing different fingerprints differing from each other with regard to their data volume, on the one hand, and to their characterizing strength for characterizing the audio signal, on the other hand, the fingerprint modi being pre-determined such that a fingerprint in accordance with a fingerprint modus having a first characterizing strength is convertible to a fingerprint in accordance with a fingerprint modus having a second characterizing strength, without using the audio signal. A predetermined fingerprint modus of the plurality of predetermined fingerprint modi is set and subsequently used for computing a fingerprint using the audio signal. The convertibility feature of the fingerprints having been produced by the different fingerprint modi enables setting a flexible compromise between the data volume and the characterizing strength for certain applications without having to re-generate a fingerprint database with each change of the fingerprint modus. Fingerprint representations scaled with regard to time or frequency may readily be converted to a different fingerprint modus.

Abstract: In a system for cleaning a workpiece or wafer, a boundary layer of heated liquid is formed on the workpiece surface. Ozone is provided around the workpiece. The ozone diffuses through the boundary layer and chemically reacts with contaminants on the workpiece surface. A jet of high velocity heated liquid is directed against the workpiece, to physically dislodge or remove a contaminant from the workpiece. The jet penetrates through the boundary layer at the point of impact. The boundary layer otherwise remains largely undisturbed. Preferably, the liquid includes water, and may also include a chemical. Steam may also be jetted onto the workpiece, with the steam also physically removing contaminants, and also heating the workpiece to speed up chemical cleaning. The workpiece and the jet of liquid are moved relative to each other, so that substantially all areas of the workpiece surface facing the jet are exposed at least momentarily to the jet. Sonic or electromagnetic energy may also be introduced to the workpiece.
