Title: Membrane separation device and absorption refrigerator utilizing membrane separation
Inventor: MIYANAGA AKIO
IPC: B01D61/58
Filed: 2001-11-15
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device which can treat a high concentration solution in combination with a multistage separation membrane module, and an absorption refrigerator which separates a refrigerant and an absorbent by using this separating device and cools and heats a target medium only by using the heat source of an ambient temperature. SOLUTION: Pouring the high concentration solution having a small density difference on both sides of a reverse osmotic membrane produces the movement of a solvent from a high pressure solution to a low pressure solution, and reduces the concentration of the low pressure solution. The high concentration solution can be treated by continuously carrying out this operation. In the absorption refrigerator, the refrigerant and the absorbent can be separated without using the high temperature heat source by using this separating device, and the refrigerator can be made small because a regenerator and a condenser are unnecessary. The separated refrigerant liquid is evacuated by an expansion valve, becomes vapor by an evaporator and is returned to an absorber. The absorbent returned to the absorber through a reducing valve absorbs the refrigerant vapor.  In cooling, the target medium is cooled by the evaporator, and in heating, the target medium is heated by the absorber.

Title: Image processing device, its method, storage medium, and program
Inventor: NAGASAKI TANIO
IPC: G06T15/04
Filed: 2001-11-21
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To compute a lod by means of a simply-structured device. SOLUTION: A texture buffer 3 stores texture data filtered in accordance with each of different reduction ratios. A texture mapping device 1 (lod computing device 101) computes a lod (level of detail) representing a reduction ratio of a polygonal pixel, however, computing carried out in this process includes no division. That is, the lod computing device 101 requires no great number of multiplying devices which are required for computing including division, and consequently, the size of the lod computing device 101 can be reduced.
