Abstract: A medical diagnostic ultrasound system is described in which ultrasonic B mode tissue information and Doppler flow information is acquired from a volumetric region of the body and processed together to render a three dimensional image. The three dimensional rendering processes the B mode and Doppler flow information as a function of the spatial location of B mode and Doppler pixels in the volumetric region. The rendering utilizes separate three dimensional rendering parameters for the tissue and flow information, respectively. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a mobile communication system, signals which are transmitted from mobile stations moving relative to a base station are subject to a Doppler effect. A technique is described for compensating for that Doppler effect in the received signal, depending on the channel conditions for the received signal. Thus, the Doppler shift compensation is implemented only or mainly in good enough channel conditions.

Abstract: L(-)-carnitine is synthesized from crotonobetaine, crotonobetaine salts or derivatives in an ecologically advantageous manner by immobilizing cells of Escherichia coli 044 K74 on ceramics, glass beads or polyurethane disks in a two stage continuously operating cell recycle reactor containing a reaction medium. The medium preferably contains between 25 mM and 1 M crotonobetaine and at least 50 mM fumarate. Growing or resting cells of E. coli are retained in the reactor by micro or ultrafiltration membranes which are arranged as a flat membrane module or hollow fiber module. A first stage contains a reactor tank and a second stage contains an external recirculation loop connected to the tank for feeding the reaction medium through a filter unit. L-carnitine is synthesized under anaerobic conditions to produce a reaction medium containing L-carnitine and unreacted crotonobetaine. The reaction medium is transferred through the recirculation loop to the filter unit to produce a filtrate containing L-carnitine and a residue containing unreacted crotonobetaine and cells. The residue is recirculated to the reactor tank.

Abstract: There is provided an enclosed boiler (1) having sidewall means (4,5,6,7) in the form of water carrying side wall tanks which define an enclosure within which is mounted a heat exchanger (10) through which flame and hot gases are led from an oil burner (12) to an exhaust gas flue (15). The heat exchanger (10) comprises an upper transverse baffle plate (20) and a lower transverse baffle plate (21) and a central core formed by four rectangular plates (22). A number of upright baffle plates (24) project from the core (23) to meet the sidewall means (4,5,6,7) to form various passageways. Gas is then delivered into the heat exchanger means (10) and is delivered up and down the heat exchanger between the core, the upper transverse baffle plate (20) and the lower transverse baffle plate (21) between the baffle plates until they are delivered out of the heat exchanger (10). The hot exhaust gas thus travels up and down between the two transverse baffle plates causing them to travel a considerable distance over the surface of the water carrying tanks of the boiler (1). <IMAGE>
