Abstract: Method for building a kinetic model for estimating the mass of hydrogen sulfide produced by aquathermolysis in a rock containing raw oil. - The raw oil and the rock are described according to four fractions of chemical compounds: the NSO, aromatic, resin and insolubles fractions. Next, a kinetic model is described, describing the mass of hydrogen sulfide produced relative to time, temperature and the change of the mass distribution of sulphur in the said fractions. In this kinetic model, the sulphur contained in the NSO and resin fractions give rise to hydrogen sulfide and is partly incorporated into the insoluble and aromatic fractions. The kinetic parameters of the model are then calibrated based on aqueous pyrolysis experience in a closed and inert environment, verifying that all the sulphur initially in the oil is entirely dispersed throughout the fractions. Application to vapour assisted recovery of heavy oil.

Abstract: A handheld electronic device with a reduced QWERTY keyboard and disambiguation software. As a user enters keystrokes, the device outputs a default output and a number of variants from which a user can choose. The output is based largely upon the likelihood that a user intended a particular output, but various features of the device provide additional variants provided by various logic structures resident on the device. The device enables editing during text entry, and when initiating an activity session on a word such as during editing, the display outputs variants of the entire word being edited, rather than providing as variants only those parts of a word that are being edited.  The device also provides a learning function that allows the disambiguation function to adapt to provide a customized experience for the user. In certain predefined circumstances, the disambiguation function can be selectively disabled and an alternate keystroke interpretation system provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to filters used to remove debris from water being sucked into a piping system. It has particular application use in nuclear power plants, which, after a loss of coolant accident, must pump cooling water back into the reactor core from a collection sump. This water may contain various types of debris that must be removed before the water is sent back into the reactor cooling system. There are restrictions on the allowable pressure drop across the strainer and the space available for installing this equipment. The finned strainer of the present invention addresses these issues while maximizing the quantity of debris filtered from the water.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé pour régler un équilibrage de tensions de cellules dans un bloc de batteries à cellules multiples lithium-ion. Le système comprend un bloc de batteries à cellules multiples comprenant un module maître et un module esclave; une unité centrale située dans le contrôleur de système et sortant un signal de synchronisation pour chacune des cellules dans le module maître et le module esclave, une première interface verticale transmettant le signal de synchronisation sorti de l'unité centrale au module maître; et une seconde interface verticale transmettant le signal de synchronisation au module esclave grâce à la première interface verticale. En conséquence, il est possible de lire les tensions de toutes les cellules dans un bloc de batteries avec la même chronologie et donc d'empêcher une erreur de lecture de tension de cellule due à la différence de temps de lecture de tension, ce qui augmente la précision d'un équilibrage de tension des cellules.

Abstract: One or more data stores are maintained separately from a primary presentation storage within a document for storing, relating and for allowing use of arbitrary data that is associated with a computer-generated document between multiple data consumers. The data store exposes application programming interfaces (APIs) to the various pieces of data in the data store for allowing different data consumers to access and operate on one or more of the data pieces in real time. Multiple data consumers may access and edit the same piece of data concurrently, and any conflicting changes to a given piece of data are resolved. Each data consumer may accept or reject the change as well as make additional side-effect changes as a result of the original change. In this way, the data may be synchronized in real time across the data consumers.
