A diagnostic system wherein a central diagnostic center receives sensor data relative to the operating condition of a plurality of remote plants. Each plant records just certain sensor signals and transmits them at respective prescheduled transmisssion times. If certain activation limits are exceeded, a data link with the diagnostic center is immediately established so that the data may be transmi...

A microbubbled, substantially fluid-impervious polymeric web exhibiting substantially the same consumer preferred soft and cloth-like tactile impression and low noise generation levels heretofore only achievable in microapertured, and hence substantially fluid pervious, polymeric webs. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the present invention pertains to a microbubbled polymeric web exhibiting...

A core for a rotary valve for a power steering system having in its periphery a plurality of blind ended longitudinally extending slots separated by lands for use in a sleeve member having in its bore a similar array of longitudinally extending blind ended slots matching those of the valve core but in an underlap relationship thereto, the slots of one being wider than the lands of the other so def...

1. Combined gas and steam turbine power plant, with a coal gasification apparatus arranged upstream of the gas turbine part, with a heat exchanger installation arranged downstream, considering the flow of raw gas, of the coal gasification apparatus and having a high-pressure steam generator, a raw gas/purified gas heat exchanger and a low-pressure steam generator, with a gas purification installat...

A ceramic filter for filtering molten iron is disclosed. The ceramic filter is made from a high-melting ceramic material having an open-celled foam structure, a variable bulk density in different portions of the filter, and at least one afflux surface. In order to filter molten iron efficiently, the ratio of filter surface to filter volume should be in the range of about 0.0003 to 9 m2/cm3, the sp...

The transfer unit running in a ground trench (1) goes to the four wheels of a vehicle on the bottom plate, independently of the track width or axle distance. In front of the front wheels two articulated screw-operated jaws (12) secure the wheels, whilst a corresp. attachment (13) takes place on the rear wheels. - On contraction, the wheels of the motor car are raised, and the vehicle is then ready...

A process is disclosed for preparing a toilet bar composition whose components comprise a fatty acid soap and a C10-C16 acyl isethionate salt in the ratio of about 20:1 to 1:0.98, respectively. The blend is charged with an initial amount of water from 12 to 30% by weight of the composition. Heating and mixing are terminated after the blend has passed a second peak in viscosity, termination occurri...
