  • Patent number: 11965579
    Abstract: Provided is a wind turbine, including a tower and a damper module, especially a slosh damper module arranged in the tower, which damper module includes a frame with at least two elongated first frame ends at one side of the frame and at least two elongated second frame ends at the opposite side of the frame, which first and second frame ends are fixed to first and second fixation elements arranged at an inner wall of the tower, wherein the first frame ends are immovably fixed to the fixation elements while the second frame ends are fixed sliding relative to the fixation elements, wherein the first and second fixation elements are first and second plates fixed to the and extending horizontal from the inner wall, on which the first and second frame ends comprising flat support areas rest.

  • Publication number: 20230325268
    Abstract: A method for automatically determining a current condition of a system in operation includes acquiring first data relating to one or more faults in the system during a process, acquiring second data relating to a process time in the system during the process, acquiring third data relating to media and energy consumption in the system during the process, and determining a process indicator number based on the first, second, and third data. A device for automatically determining a current condition of a system in operation is configured to carry out the method.

  • Patent number: 11377368
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for producing and providing sterile water comprising an inlet for process water; a recuperator for preheating process water and for cooling down the sterile water; a heating circuit comprising a pump, a heater for heating preheated process water and a heat retention section for keeping heated process water hot; a temperature sensor for measuring a current temperature of the sterile water leaving the heat retention section; a flow control valve located downstream of the temperature sensor; and a bypass between the flow control valve and the heater. The flow control valve keeps a volume flow in the heating circuit constant, the recuperator cools down the sterile water of a first partial volume flow, when such a first partial volume flow of sterile water is taken from the heating circuit, the bypass returns into the heating circuit a second partial volume flow of sterile water.
