Abstract:
A method and generator for modifying interactions between a load and the generator are described. The method includes applying output power to the load using a power amplifier, controlling a level of the output power responsive to a power control setting, and adjusting a conduction angle of the power amplifier to reduce a level of sensitivity of the power amplifier to variations of an impedance of the load. The generator includes a compensation subsystem coupled to the power amplifier that controls a conduction angle of the power amplifier to enable a sensitivity of the power amplifier to be adjusted.
Abstract:
In a fastening arrangement for the positionally correct fastening of a device to a structural part of a motor vehicle, the at least one screw means is arranged on a tolerance-compensating part, wherein the tolerance-compensating part is fixed to the structural part by means of a joining material which is selected from an adhesive or a plastic liquefied by ultrasonic welding, and wherein the tolerance-compensating part is adjusted in position relative to the structural part. A method for the positionally correct fastening of a device to the structural part of a motor vehicle makes use of a tolerance-compensating part which is joined to the structural part by making use of a joining process in which a joining material is used, the joining process being selected from the group consisting of: adhesive bonding with an adhesive as the joining material, ultrasonic welding with a plastic as the joining material. The tolerance-compensating part is positionally adjusted relative to the structural part during the joining process through the joining material, and the device is fastened to the tolerance-compensating part via at least one screw.
Abstract:
A metal oxide powder includes a powder feed material structured and arranged to form molten droplets when melted in a plasma stream. The molten droplets are structured and arranged to form frozen spherical droplets under free-fall conditions such that said molten droplets have ample time for complete in-flight solidification before reaching a collection chamber.
Abstract:
A reaction medium for enzyme-catalyzed reactions is provided, comprising an oil-in-water emulsion including water, an emulsifier, an oil phase and at least one interfacially active enzyme, where the emulsion is produced by the phase inversion temperature process and has a droplet size of 50 to 400 nm. A method for the enzyme-catalyzed esterification, transesterification or hydrolysis of fatty acid alkyl esters and/or triglycerides is also provided where the oil-in-water emulsion is used as the reaction medium.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a triggering device (1) for a thermal fuse comprising an actuator (11), which is designed to trigger at a threshold temperature, and a conductive bridge element (6) that is attached and connected to multiple connector points (9) exclusively by means of detachable connecting elements (10) for current flow. According to the invention the connecting elements (1) fully detach the bridge element (6) when a threshold temperature is reached or exceeded so that, in case the actuator (11) is triggered, the bridge element (6) is detached from the connecting elements (10) in order to interrupt the current flow.
