Patent number: 11592181Abstract: A gas turbine combustion chamber, having a combustion chamber housing, a burner positioned at least partially in the combustion chamber housing and a flame tube positioned in the combustion chamber housing. An upstream end of the flame tube has a flame tube cover. In the region of the flame tube cover radially inside the flame tube cover a mixing tube of the burner extends, which defines a pre-primary combustion zone. Between the mixing tube of the burner and the flame tube cover an axial air flow passage is formed, via which air can be conducted in the axial direction outside along the mixing tube, and into the flame tube cover radial air flow passages are introduced via which the air following the axial air flow passage can be conducted in the radial direction of the flame tube cover for cooling the flame tube cover.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2019Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: MAN ENERGY SOLUTIONS SEInventors: Jaman El Masalme, Stefan Clauss, Jan-Niklas Bleyl

Patent number: 7358746Abstract: In a method for locating objects enclosed in a medium, a detection signal is generated by at least one capacitive sensor. The detection signal penetrates the medium that is to be analyzed in such a way that information is obtained about the objects that are enclosed in the medium by evaluating the detection signal, particularly by measuring impedance. In order to evaluate the detection signal, an algorithm is used that separates the measured signal into signal parts originating from the enclosing medium and signal parts originating from the object enclosed in the medium. A measuring device carries out the inventive method.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2003Date of Patent: April 15, 2008Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Stefan Clauss, Uwe Skultety-Betz, Bjoern Haase, Ulli Hoffmann
