  • DUAL ROW HEAT EXCHANGER AND AUTOMOBILE BUMPER INCORPORATING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20100012302
    Abstract: A heat exchanger has a cross-current/counter-current structure, so that air which is directed across the heat exchanger is heated in the two successive rows. This design takes advantage of the temperature glide of a refrigerant blend. In this design, the hottest refrigerant blend is in contact with the hottest air, and the coldest refrigerant blend is in contact with the coldest air, leading to a lower difference between the average refrigerant blend temperature and the average air temperature compared to a pure refrigerant in a one-row heat exchanger.

  • Reusable macro markup language
    Patent number: 7650355
    Abstract: Methods and systems in accordance with the present invention provide macros and a markup language referred to as Reusable Macro Markup Language (“RMML”) which allows numerical analysis routines to be written quickly, cheaply, and in a form that is usable by a broad range of data documents in the Reusable Data Markup Language (“RDML”) formatting language. RMML and RDML are markup languages, such as the Hypertext Markup Language (“HTML”) or the Extensible Markup Language (“XML”). Generally, RDML facilitates the browsing and manipulation of numbers, as opposed to text as in HTML, and does so by requiring attributes describing the meaning of the numbers to be attached to the numbers. RMML allows spreadsheet type macros to be posted as web documents, to be searched by search engines, to be combined into more complex programs, and to be reused with many data documents.
