摘要:
The present invention relates to a reversible solid oxide electrochemical cell that may operate in two modes: a discharge mode (power generation) and a charge mode (electrolytic fuel production). A thermal system that utilizes a SOFB and is inclusive of selection of operating conditions that may enable roundtrip efficiencies exceeding about 80% to be realized is disclosed. Based on leverage of existing solid oxide fuel cell technology, the system concept is applicable to energy storage applications on the kW to MW scale.

摘要:
A standard phosphoric acid fuel cell power plant has its heat exchanger removed such that a higher temperature coolant flow can be directed from the system to the generator of an absorption chiller to obtain improved efficiency in the chiller. In one embodiment, the higher temperature coolant may flow directly from the fuel cell stack to the generator and after passing therethrough, it is routed back to the high temperature coolant loop. In another embodiment, the higher temperature coolant is made to transfer some of its heat to a lower temperature coolant and the lower temperature coolant is than made to flow directly to the generator and back to the lower temperature coolant loop. In the first embodiment, either a double effect absorption chiller or a single effect absorption chiller is used, while in the second embodiment a single effect absorption chiller is used.
摘要:
Copolyester plasticizers useful for the formulation of PVC refrigerator gaskets which exhibit improved resistance to migration and marring and improved processing characteristics are provided. The copolyesters are obtained by reacting an acid component consisting of a mixture of a benzene dicarboxylic acid (or anhydride or methyl ester thereof) and an aliphatic C.sub.5-12 saturated dicarboxylic acid (or methyl ester) with an alcohol component consisting of a mixture of neopentyl glycol and ethylene glycol. An aliphatic C.sub.6-13 saturated monofunctional alcohol or aliphatic C.sub.6-13 saturated monocarboxylic acid terminating agent is also included in the reaction.

Copolyesters are provided which are derived from mixed dibasic acids and a branched-chain diol. These copolyesters possess a unique balance of physical and chemical characteristics which permits their use in small amounts in blood separation tubes to provide an effective barrier between the light and heavy phases of the blood after centrifuging.
