摘要:
The present invention provides a gas turbine combustor which makes it possible to achieve both a high combustion efficiency and low NOx emissions characteristics over a wide output power range without using a device that can vary the flow rate of the air used for combustion, by burning a lean mixture using high-temperature burned gas. The gas turbine combustor 10 comprises pre-mixture injection tubes 16 which conduct a mixture of fuel and air into a combustion chamber 11. The mixture from the pre-mixture injection tubes 16 is injected toward burned gas 19a present on the downstream side of the flame 19, which is injected from burners 15 that open into the combustion chamber 11, and this mixture is mixed with the burned gas 19a. Even in a mixture which is leaner than the lower limit of inflammability, the radicals in the burned gas 19a are effective in initiating reactions, so that the combustion of the mixture can be started. Since the burned gas has a lower oxygen concentration than fresh mixture, and since the pre-mixture is dispersed in space, the generation of NOx can be suppressed.

A novel combined engine for a single-stage spacecraft is provided that combines a air-breathing engine utilizing oxygen in the atmosphere as oxidizer and rocket engines for obtaining thrust outside the atmosphere and that does not require a portion whose shape is variable in accordance with the flight speed. Rocket engines 15 are provided on struts 12 that form air introduction channels 10 in the air intake section 4. The rocket jets 18 from the rocket engines 15 control the flow of the airflows 16 introduced into the combustion chamber 20 in accordance with the flight speed. When the spacecraft 1 is stationary or in subsonic flight, the rocket jets 18 promote air intake into the combustion chamber 20 by lowering of static pressure due to expansion (ejector effect). In the subsonic flight condition, it performs the role of air compression, mixing with incoming air, fuel injection and ignition and during supersonic/ultra-supersonic flight it performs the role of a variable diffuser.

The present invention provides a GPS device for measuring the wave height and current direction and speed, which is capable of accurately measuring the wave height (height of the waves) and current direction and speed (tidal current) in any point on the sea, ocean, lake, or marsh, and to a system using such a device. The GPS receiver 2 of the GPS device 1 for measuring the wave height and current direction and speed processes the GPS signals received with the GPS antenna 3 and measures the three-dimensional position of antenna 3. The three-dimensional position data are recorded by the data recording unit 4 connected to the GPS receiver 2. When the floating body 5 having those devices 2-4 installed thereon floats on the sea or ocean, it moves together with the waves and tidal current in the present location. The software 7 for conducting high-pass filter processing and smoothing processing is installed in the data processing unit 6, and the data on the wave height and current direction and speed are output, while the errors are being removed from the three-dimensional position data recorded in the data recording unit 4.

The resin in a fiber-reinforced resin material that uses a single fiber reinforcing ply or a number of fiber reinforcing plies for reinforcing the resin material is reinforced by dispersing carbon nanofibers therein, whereby a fiber-reinforced composite resin material having improved strength such as compressive strength is provided. In a carbon nanofiber-dispersed resin fiber-reinforced composite material 1, an uncured resin 4 having carbon nanofibers 5 dispersed therein is impregnated into a number of fiber reinforcing plies 2a laid one upon another. Upon curing the resin 4, the strength of the matrix 3 itself is increased through the carbon nanofibers 5 dispersed in the resin 4. Moreover, the fiber reinforcement 2 and the resin 4 are joined together strongly by the carbon nanofibers 5, and hence the strength of the composite material, for example the compressive strength, which hitherto has been dependent on the strength of the resin 4 only, is improved.

The fine jet control type sound absorption system of this invention, aimed at absorbing low-frequency sound with both discrete frequency and broadband frequency to the same degree as already existing acoustic lining can do, is composed of two parts. One is a barrier wall covering an air space in which the concerning low-frequency sound propagates and having a multiplicity of small holes formed therein. The other is the means for causing a fine jet passing through these small holes into or out from the air space. This sound absorption system realizes a fine jet in the vicinity of the barrier wall for the purpose of canceling the sound inside the air space by means of the interference of the sound with the fine jets. Any of or a combination of shape of small holes, jet ejection angle or suction angle, amount of jet flow, thickness of a barrier wall back layer and air flow angle at which secondary air flows into the barrier wall back layer is selected.

A method for detecting a linear image in a planar picture is provided whereby the positions of a linear image can be determined by devising suitable processing of image data, even if a linear image traced by a moving object, such as space debris, a meteor, or the like, does not appear clearly on a picture. Image data processing, consisting of division processing (S2) for dividing image data of a planar picture captured by an imaging element into a plurality of mutually parallel columnar image data and representative value selection processing (S3) for taking the median value determined for each of the columnar image data as a representative value for the corresponding columnar image data, is performed in every direction of said planar picture, whereupon analysis processing consisting of significant value detection processing (S6) for detecting whether or not said representative value of each of said columnar image data is a significant value, and linear image position identification processing (S7) for identifying the linear position of columnar image data having a representative value indicating a significant value as the position of a linear image resulting from the passage of the moving object or the like, is performed.

An offset rotary joint unit equipped with a rotation correction mechanism, in which a bending motion can be executed in a two-dimensional plane only by virtue of a rotary mechanism and which can support a high-load weight and is applicable for two-arm mechanisms such as nursing assistant robots. One offset rotary joint unit 4 is composed of a first arm 1, a rotation correction arm 2 rotationally driven around the axial line of the first arm, and a second arm 3 rotationally driven around an axial line obliquely intersecting with the rotation correction arm. A rotation correction joint mechanism 5 linking the first arm 1 and the rotation correction arm 2 and an offset rotary joint mechanism 6 linking the rotation correction arm 2 and the second arm 3 are driven by a single motor 12, and the rotation correction joint mechanism 5 rotates synchronously and in the reverse direction, following the rotation of the offset rotary joint mechanism 6, thereby allowing the second arm 3 to execute a bending motion in a two-dimensional plane with respect to the first arm 1 only by virtue of rotary mechanisms.

摘要:
This invention provides a multi-fan system separated core engine type turbofan engine in which high pressure air is used as the working fluid for a turbine which drives a fan, thereby reducing the manufacturing costs of the turbofan engine and simplifying the constitution thereof. A turbine for driving a fan 11 which is provided in a propulsion device 3 of the multi-fan system separated core engine type turbofan engine 1 is an air turbine 13 which is driven by the supply through a duct 9 of a part of high pressure air compressed in a compressor 5 of a core engine 2. Since the working fluid of the air turbine 13 for driving the fan 11 is not high temperature combustion gas, there is no need to use expensive heat-resistant material for the turbine, and thus the propulsion device 3 can be manufactured at low cost, the constitution thereof can be simplified, and operational control can be ameliorated.
