Patent EP-1337689-A1 (EP)
Inventor: EFIM YA LYUBLINSKI
IPC: C23F13/04
Filed: 2001-10-17
Abstract: A steel-reinforced structure supplied with an aqueous solution of an inhibitor for the strucutre, is further protected against deterioration when an impressed cathodic current is applied; preferably the structure is continuously bathed in the inhibitor solution; flow of the first impressed current is maintained until flow is relatively constant at a level at least one-half the level at which the first impressed current was initiated. The concentration of ions is sensed by measurement of the current flow while maintaining a chosen voltage. The inhibitor solution may be used in conjunction with an electroosmotic current to drive ions into the concrete and towards the steel; this may be done prior to applying the cathodic impressed current, or concurrently therewith by providing secondary electrodes. Program controller means in the power station switches from one mode of delivery to another when current usage, measured by current density, is deemd to have become uneconomical.

Abstract: Les modes de réalisation de la présente invention concernent des impératifs de gestion des contaminants qui apparaissent durant la production d'un fluide produit exempt de contaminants lors de la mise en oeuvre de l'équipement d'AMP. Un mode de réalisation comprend un reniflard couplé de façon fluidique à une extrémité d'alimentation d'un adsorbeur avec un adsorbant sensible aux contaminants. Ce renifleur peut être couplé à l'extrémité d'alimentation par l'intermédiaire d'une vanne de fermeture fermée durant la production et ouverte lors de l'arrêt. D'autres modes de réalisation utilisent d'autres techniques d'étanchéisation pour étanchéiser davantage l'appareil, ou du moins des composants de ce dernier, contre l'entrée de contaminants. Par exemple, un joint de protection destiné à recevoir un gaz de protection ayant une teneur en vapeur de contaminant sensiblement identique ou inférieure au gaz produit selon un procédé d'adsorption modulée en pression sur les adsorbeurs. Dans un autre exemple, un joint d'arrêt peut être utilisé, ce joint étant généralement en prise lorsque l'appareil est mis en attente.

Abstract: Measurement arrangement for determining the cooling effect of a supermarket or shop freezer that has cooling air circulation in front of it to prevent the ingress of warm air. Arrangement comprises a measurement packet, means for heating the packet and a sensor arranged within the packet. Independent claims are made for two methods for determining the cooling effect of cool circulating air in shop chest type freezers. In both methods the packet is heated to a certain temperature, around human body temperature, and then arranged in the cooling stream. In the first method the same heating power is supplied to the packet as initially and a constant average temperature measured that is less than the initial temperature. In the second method extra heat is supplied until it regains its initial temperature after being placed in the cooling air stream. In the first method an average temperature difference is determined and in the second the extra power required is determined.

IPC: G01K11/14

Abstract: A structure is disclosed which comprises a thermochromic layer located between a front layer and a back layer, wherein the front layer is a dielectric and is in contact with the thermochromic layer, and wherein the back layer is reflective to infrared (IR) radiation. Below the thermochromic transition temperature of the thermochromic layer, the front layer and thermochromic layer are IR-transparent, so the structure is highly reflective to IR radiation because of the presence of the reflective back layer. Consequently, the structure has a low emittance in this state. Above the thermochromic transition temperature of the thermochromic layer, the device structure becomes IR-absorbent, so the reflectance of the structure is reduced and hence its emittance is increased. The front layer index-matches with the thermochromic layer above the transition temperature of the thermochromic layer to enable radiation to enter the thermochromic layer.
