Abstract:
A humidifier for adding humidity to an air stream of an HVAC system includes a housing configured to be mounted to a surface of an HVAC duct. The housing may be configured to hold a humidifier pad in an operating position. The housing may direct air through the humidifier pad from a first major surface to a second major surface of the pad. In the operating position, the first and second major surfaces of the humidifier pad may be substantially non-parallel with the surface of the HVAC duct when the housing is mounted to the surface of the HVAC duct. In some cases, this may provide a more compact design. In some cases, a centrifugal fan, rather than an axial fan, may be used to draw air into the humidifier from the HVAC duct. The use of a centrifugal fan may reduce the noise associated with the operation of the humidifier.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for enhancing device performance through transport flow control is provided. The method may include determining that a level of user interest is indicated in at least one application of one or more applications, and modifying a transport flow associated with at least one of the one or more applications.
Abstract:
Regioselectively substituted cellulose esters having a plurality of aryl-acyl substituents and a plurality of alkyl-acyl substituents are disclosed along with methods for making the same. Such cellulose esters may be suitable for use in optical films, such as optical films having certain Nz values, −A optical films, and/or +C optical films. Optical films prepared employing such cellulose esters have a variety of commercial applications, such as, for example, as compensation films in liquid crystal displays and/or waveplates in creating circular polarized light used in 3-D technology.
Abstract:
A method for managing a topology of a multi-ring Ethernet and a system thereof are disclosed, and the method includes: a node including a blocked port on the multi-ring Ethernet periodically sending a Topology Find Frame (TF) message along a transmission control channel through an own good port; a node receiving said TF message in the multi-ring Ethernet updating an own topology database according the NODE_LIST in said TF message, writing an own NODE_ID into the NODE_LIST of said TF message, and then forwarding said TF message along the transmission control channel.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method for detection of Ethernet segment protection, and this method includes: configuring a detection point in two segment protection domains with a shared link; configuring a joint monitor group on the shared link of said two segment protection domains; and judging whether the configured detection point and the joint monitor group receive a Continuity Check Message (CCM) in a certain period, if the CCM message is received, determining a detected segment corresponding to this CCM message is normal; if the CCM message is not received, determining the detected segment corresponding to this CCM message has a fault. The present invention further discloses a system for detection of Ethernet segment protection, including: a detection point configuration unit, a joint monitor group configuration unit and a judgment unit. The method and system of the present invention can solve the problem of the segment protection in the case of the multi-node fault and greatly improve the network performance.
Abstract:
Lignocellulosic biomass is noted for its recalcitrance to deconstruction as a feedstock for biofuel production. A two-step pretreatment method with the aim of enhancing cellulose digestibility, bypassing the traditional severe pretreatment reaction conditions and improving the overall economics of biofuel production is disclosed herein. A 1st pretreatment step is used to partially remove hemicellulose and lignin. A 2nd pretreatment step using electrolyzed water is used to break the crystalline structure and to remove residual hemicellulose and lignin before enzymatic hydrolysis for releasing fermentable sugars. A digestibility of 95% can be achieved by the two-step approach.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method for refreshing a single ring address of an Ethernet ring, which method comprises: achieving address refresh on an on-ring port at one side of a same node by the control of a refresh timer. The present invention further discloses a system for refreshing a single ring address of an Ethernet ring, which system comprises: an address refresh achieving unit configured to achieve address refresh on an on-ring port at one side of a same node by the control of a refresh timer. The method and system of the present invention reduces the number of refreshes of the address forwarding table and improves the efficiency and stability of Ethernet ring protection, thus greatly promoting the performance of the Ethernet ring.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and base station for transmitting broadcast multicast service control signaling, and the method includes: a serving base station of a cell located in overlapped coverage of more than one Multimedia Broadcast multicast service Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) area respectively determining multi-cell mode broadcast multicast service control signaling for each MBSFN area, and transmitting the determined multi-cell mode broadcast multicast service control signaling. The base station serves a cell located in overlapped coverage of more than one MBSFN area, and includes a control signaling determination module and a control signaling transmission module. The method and base station of the present invention avoid the complex processing at the border of MBSFN areas, and facilitates the management of control signaling in MBSFN areas.
Abstract:
A live TV broadcast method of digital interactive TV, which enables the whole network to share one set of CMTS for independent live broadcast: CMTS of each hub head-end is used for on-demand broadcast; Cable Modem aims to receive directives from users to seek downlink frequency corresponding to the IP address according to frequency IP list stored with IP addresses and downlink frequencies for advanced multicast. After that, data flow shall be sent to users through bridging by Cable Modem. As Cable Modem can directly perform the switchover, there is no need to use CMTS to receive uplink data. This is favorable for significant reduction of afflux of various interferences signals and off-line of Cable Mode, which can ensure normal and stable broadcast of programs in case of off-line.
