摘要:
A heat storage and transfer system that incorporates a primary heat storage chamber or body that is thermally insulated and which in use contains a heat storing liquid or solid; and a secondary chamber external to and adjacent the primary heat storage chamber or body through which a liquid, heat transfer fluid or steam to be heated is passed in use, the system having a heat transfer mechanism to selectively transfer thermal energy from the heat storing liquid or solid of the primary heating chamber or body to the liquid or steam to be heated in the secondary chamber. The heat transfer mechanism has a drive that moves the secondary chamber from a first position that is thermally separated from the primary chamber into a second position that is substantially inserted in a void or recess within the primary chamber or body.

Electronic circuitry and methods are provided. Electrical energy is coupled to a transformer by way of line filter of a power supply. A clipper circuit limits the alternating-current voltage applied to the primary side. A voltage tripler receives output from the secondary side of the transformer and a resulting voltage is coupled to a voltage regulator. At least one regulated direct-current voltage is output to a load and is maintained while a current pulse is applied to a predetermined device. The electronic circuitry conforms to pending power conservation requirements for computers and other equipment.

摘要:
A method of providing an entertaining and interactive interface for a user to view a displayable multimedia packet, comprises: obtaining a multimedia packet (“MMP”) relating to a product, service or provider, the MMP having a predesigned progression from beginning to end; obtaining or generating a series of queries relating to the product, service or provider; establishing a series of predetermined elapsed times, based on the MMP's predesigned progression, at which each of the various queries will be presented to the user; associating each of the various queries with one of the predetermined elapsed times; and placing the MMP and the queries into a format presentable to a user to allow the user to view the MMP along with the queries.
摘要:
A prepreg for manufacturing a fibre-reinforced composite material, the prepreg comprising a layer of a layer of fibrous reinforcement fully impregnated by a matrix resin material, wherein at least the surface of the resin material has a viscosity and a tack at room temperature, and each prepreg has a stiffness at room temperature, such that when two of the prepregs are disposed as a vertical stack thereof at room temperature with adjacent resin material surfaces, the adjacent resin material surfaces are unadhered and form continuous air paths therebetween.
摘要:
A display interface device and method for an individual personal computer, workstation, or embedded system comprising one or more display interfaces; a video library; and driving any one of a plurality of video displays of a plurality of types connected to the one or more display interfaces from output of the video library. OpenGL is a preferred API. Driving of hybrid displays as well as stroke displays using formats designed for raster displays (such as VAPS) is also provided for. Real-time switching between displays is also provided for.
摘要:
A solid state illuminator and display are provided for bi-colored ported water level gauges suitable for use in high pressure steam drums or similar water/steam devices to facilitate making an accurate determination of water level in such devices. The illuminator includes an array of bi-colored solid state light emitting diodes (LEDs), as the light source, and a precision lens to focus the light provided from the LEDs through a gauge body and onto a viewing screen.
