Abstract: An outboard drive for boats, having a steerable underwater housing ( 1 ) which has a wing-profiled portion ( 2 ). Projecting at an approximately 90 degree angle from the aft part of one side face ( 31 ) of the wing profile is a face portion ( 32 ), the lateral extent of which amounts to about 1-2% of its distance to the steering shaft ( 36 ) of the wing profile. As a result of this construction, a lifting force will be generated during forward travel in the water. The face portion is configured on that side of the profile which produces a lifting force counter-directional to a steering force, deriving from the motor torque, upon the wing profile.

Abstract: A system and method for the efficient transmission of information in a code division multiple access (CDMA) wireless telecommunication system. To increase the rate of reliable transmission, an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme is implemented in a direct-spread CDMA network, this combination sometimes being referred to as multi-carrier CDMA (MC-CDMA). Information (such as voice and data), interspersed with a known pilot signal, is encoded and spread across the frequency domain, rather than the time domain as in traditional CDMA; the allowable transmission bandwidth is divided into a number of carriers. To achieve even larger transmission rates, the guardband between carriers is eliminated. To prevent interference, the number of pilot transmissions is reduced and a corresponding number of frequency bins at the border of an OFDM block are loaded with zeros. The receiver simply ignores these subcarriers when reconstructing the transmitted signal.

Abstract: The wind turbine, under normal operating conditions, delivers generated electricity to the grid which is proportional to the wind speed. In the event of a fault in the grid, the wind turbine remains connected and delivers electricity at a lower power level. On returning to normal working conditions, a third power level is generated temporarily which higher than the normal rating. The short burst of high power is generated by a short circuit, controlling an intermediate store, control of a chopper in the direct voltage intermediate circuit or control of the rotor rotation.

Abstract: A Roots-type blower comprises a housing defining a rotor chamber and an inlet and outlet to the rotor chamber. First and second rotors are mounted in the rotor chamber, each rotor defining a plurality of lobes, adjacent lobes and the housing cooperating to define gas transport chambers. The blower is configured so that a net flow rate of gas into a gas transport chamber is generally or approximately constant, whereby a change in gas pressure in the gas transport chamber is generally or approximately linear, as the gas transport chamber approaches the outlet. In one embodiment, this is accomplished by providing flow channels extending from the outlet towards the inlet, and from the inlet towards the outlet, corresponding to each rotor. The flow channels permit gas to flow from the high pressure outlet to a gas transport chamber and from the gas transport chamber to the low pressure inlet. The resulting amelioration of pressure spikes associated with flow back substantially reduces the operational noise level of the blower.
