Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI94/00310 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 30, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 30, 1996 PCT Filed Jul. 5, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/02157 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 19, 1995A method and an arrangement for controlling heat transfer in a ventilation apparatus or an air conditioning apparatus, in which heat contained in exhaust air is recovered into supply air by means of a heat transfer circuit having fluid circulation. Additional heating or additional cooling energy is supplied to the heat transfer circuit when the heat transfer is insufficient for maintaining a desired temperature of the supply air. To optimize the heat recovery, the supply of additional heating or cooling energy is minimized by measuring the temperatures and fluid flows of the heat transfer fluid and of the additional energy.
Patent NO-970259-D0 (NO)
Inventor: LIIMATAINEN JARI ILMARI
IPC: C22C38/00
Filed: 1997-01-21
Abstract: The invention relates to the field of powder metallurgy. A steel is disclosed, which is compacted from a powder mixture by means of pressure and heat, its microstructure arising mainly from two components, the first of which being austenitic (e.g., Hadfield manganese steel) and the second being an essentially martensitic component rich in hard precipitates. The austenitic microstructure is more ductile than the martensitic, and it effectively prevents the propagation of microscopic cracking. Thus, the material is suitable for use in wear parts subjected to strong forces, as in, e.g., stone crushers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A railway buffer capsule comprising a hollow plunger (10) slidable in a cylinder (11). The interior of the plunger (10) is divided by a hollow floating piston (17) into a gas containing space and a liquid reservoir (18). The liquid reservoir (18) communicates with a liquid compression chamber formed within the cylinder (11) outside the plunger (10). Within the hollow piston (17) there is a valve which cooperates with a seat formed on the inner wall. Passages (22) extend through that inner wall of the piston (17) to the valve seat. The valve is urged to seat and the finish of the mating surfaces of the valve and the seat are such to allow seepage of gas therebetween to the passages (22).
