    Abstract: The disclosed method corrects consumption measurements provided by meters presumed to be connected to a same network. The measurements taken by the meters at time intervals are collected in a form of samples used to determine electrical quantities in relation with currents and voltages relating to the meters. A selection of a group of retained samples among the samples considered to be valid, corresponding to a load range or a range of load variation ratio carried by the network based on the electrical quantities is performed. Correction functions of the consumption measurements are defined from the group of retained samples, and the consumption measurements are adapted according to the correction functions. An anomaly corresponding to an electrical non-compliance of a meter can be detected by the method.

    Abstract: There is proposed a computer-implemented method for automatic correction of a topology of a smart network that uses the information contained in the voltage measurements provided by smart meters in order to determine which meter is connected to which transformer. The method starts from an initial topology and divides up the meters into first and second batches for each transformer. Successive reallocations of meters in the second batches are made according to similarities with average voltages calculated and corrected from the first batches of meters. The method proceeds by iterations until there remain no more meters attributable to other transformers and updates the topology so that its evolution at a given time be readable.

    Abstract: The switching apparatus and the method are for varying the impedance of a phase line of a segment of an electrical power line. The phase line includes n conductors electrically insulated from each other and short-circuited together at two ends of the segment. The apparatus comprises a controllable interrupter connected in series for each conductor; a parameter detector; a first controller for controlling the interrupters; and a disabling unit for disabling the interrupters. The disabling unit comprises n controllable switches associated with the interrupters, position detectors for detecting which of the interrupters is closed, and a second controller having a command output to command the controllable switches and ensure that, at all operating times, at least one of the interrupters is closed and disabled.

    Abstract: Method for producing synthesis gas comprising carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) comprising: feeding an oxidizing stream comprising O2 and a first reducing stream comprising H2 into a first zone of a reactor, where the oxidizing stream and/or the first reducing stream comprises CO2; generating an oxy-flame in the first zone by reaction between O2 and H2, and producing a first gas comprising CO H2Ovapor by contacting the oxidizing stream and the first reducing stream with the oxy-flame; feeding into the reactor a second reducing stream comprising a second source of carbon comprising a hydrocarbon; generating in a second reaction zone of the reactor of a second gas comprising the synthesis gas, from the first gas coming from the first reaction zone and the second reducing stream by a reaction involving the hydrocarbon.
