The method includes displaying a list of broadcast files stored on the terminal, in which at least one of the broadcast files is associated with broadcast related data stored on the terminal, and the broadcasting related data allows a user to obtain additional information about the at least one broadcast file. The method also includes selecting a broadcast file that is associated with broadcast related data, and connecting to an entity that provides the additional information about the at least one broadcast file.
Abstract:
Provided is a nacelle cooling system of a wind turbine. The disclosed nacelle cooling system of a wind turbine comprises cooling blocks which are arranged in order to respectively surround one or more heating devices installed inside a nacelle, a passage pipe line which is connected to the cooling blocks for coolant to flow, a primary heat exchanger which is connected to the passage pipe line and arranged on the outer lateral surface of the nacelle, and a secondary heat exchanger which is capable of absorbing heat generated inside the nacelle and discharging the heat. The nacelles of the primary and secondary heat exchangers are sealed from the outside. Therefore, when the nacelle of the wind turbine is operated in a coastal environment, the present invention can prevent performance of turbine facilities from lowering caused by erosion because the nacelle is completely sealed from external salt.
Abstract:
Disclosed are nanocrystals comprising metals and metal alloys, which are formed by a process that results in a layer of graphite in direct contact with the metallic core. The nanocrystals may be used in vivo as MRI contrast agents, X-ray contrast agents, near IR (NIR) heating agents, drug delivery, protein separation, catalysis etc. The nanocrystals may be further functionalized with a hydrophilic coating, e.g., phospholipid-polyethylene glycol, which improves in vivo stability. The process comprises chemical vapor deposition of metals adsorbed onto silica as a fine powder, in conjunction with a carbon containing gas, which coats the metal particles. The silica is then etched away. Preferred metals include iron, gold, cobalt, platinum, ruthenium and mixtures thereof, e.g., FeCo and AuFe. The process permits control of the alloy compositions, size, and other characteristics.
Abstract:
A power factor compensation method and apparatus adapted for use in a power supply which provides direct-current (DC) power via a capacitive input type smoothing circuit, and an improved power supply using the same. The power factor compensation method can correct a power factor in the power supply which rectifies an input alternating-current (AC) voltage and smoothes the same using the capacitive input type smoothing circuit to supply a DC voltage. The method may include rectifying the input AC voltage, cutting off a pulsating current generated in the rectifying operation at phases of about π/2 and 3 π/2 of the input AC voltage so that the pulsating current is not transferred to a smoothing circuit, and smoothing the pulsating current generated in the cutting-off operation. The power factor compensation apparatus does not form a peak envelope of current at phases of about π/2 and 3 π/2 of the input AC voltage, thereby improving a power factor and reducing a harmonic current. The power factor compensation apparatus uses a leak inductance in an AC transformer at maximum to provide a low-price power supply.
Abstract:
A display apparatus, a power supply apparatus and a power supply method thereof are provided. The display apparatus includes: a signal processor which processes an image signal; a display unit which displays thereon an image corresponding to the processed image signal; and a power supply unit which receives an input of AC power and supplies operating power to the display unit. The power supply unit includes a discharging circuit unit which discharges a remaining voltage of the power supply unit if the input of the AC power is suspended, and does not discharge the voltage if the AC power is input. Accordingly, a remaining voltage from a power supply unit is effectively removed if an input of AC power is suspended, and power consumption does not occur if the AC power is input.
