A gas turbine power plant having a pressurized fluidized bed combustor and an external topping combustor. A cylindrical duct and a toroidal duct direct the flow of hot gas from the topping combustor and distribute it around the circumference of the turbine inlet. The walls of the duct are cooled by water or steam. The walls are formed by tubes, having cooling fluid passages formed therein, that ex...

Preparation of low-temperature polyurethane foam from a highly-reactive polyol with a MW of 4800-6500 g/mol and at least 70% of primary hydroxy groups, and opt. containing a filler, a polyfunctional isocyanate, amine actuator, cross-linker, tin catalyst, blowing agent and stabiliser. The stabiliser is of formula R1-Si(CH3)2-O-ÄSi(CH3)2-OÜn-Ä-Si(CH3)(R1)-OÜm-Si(CH 3)2-R1 (I). R<1>=methyl or -CH2-CH...

A plurality of scanning electrodes and a plurality of sustaining electrodes parallel to each other are located on an inner face of a first glass substrate. Each of the scanning electrodes and each of the sustaining electrodes form a pair. A dielectric layer and a protection layer are formed on the first glass substrate in this order, covering the electrodes. A plurality of data electrodes perpendi...

In an audio video interactive (AVI) receiver receiving a packet stream including a directory and an AVI program having an associated identifier in the directory, a method is disclosed for controlling the execution of the AVI program comprises the following steps. First, loading the AVI program into a memory in response to the presence of the AVI program in the packet stream. Then beginning executi...

As a carcass moves down the conveyor in a meat processing plant, it may carry contaminants from an earlier processing step. The contaminants are removed by simultaneous vacuum and spraying on of a cleaning liquid. The liquid loosens the contamination, and the vacuum removes the contamination and liquid. A hand-held carcass cleaning system head is connected by flexible lines to the fixed part of th...

The laser transfer machining apparatus comprises a shaping unit (6) for shaping the laser beam so that the laser beam has a beam pattern which corresponds to a desired pattern to be machined in the object (8) to be machined and a generating unit (5) disposed separately from the shaping unit (6) for simultaneously generating a plurality of laser beams (11) each having the beam pattern from the lase...

The present invention provides a position-sensing system which employs sensors incorporating magnetoresistive material. The position of a magnetic information input member is determined through the resistance chang e ofthe magnetoresistive sensor in response to the magne tic field from the magnetic information input member. Exemplary magnetoresistive materials are lanthanum manganites having high ...

The bottle has a neck defining an opening at one end and a body having a recessed portion at the end opposite the opening. The recessed portion has a plurality of ramps disposed about its perimeter, the bottle having a thread disposed on the neck. A press-and-turn type cap has an inner shell engageable with the thread and an outer shell engaging with the inner shell by a press-and-turn device. The...

This invention concerns a tyre of radial type for vehicles designed so as to form a toroidal tube having its own seal, apart from its coupling to the rim. Its structure is closed, not being interrupted by beads, and it has, opposite the tread zone, a convexity forming a continuous circumferential seam with function of self- locking to the rim, which is essentially flat, without a drop centre, and ...
