Abstract: A method for managing the operation of an AC power distribution network to which connect a plurality of electric vehicles, at random times and at random locations to receive electrical energy for charging. The AC power distribution network is characterized by a dynamic state of balance between power generation and load, and it has an operating reserve which is a supplemental power generation capacity available to the AC power distribution network. The method includes the step of forecasting a power-supply contribution that would be available to the AC power distribution network from the electric vehicles connected to the AC power distribution network in the event the AC power distribution network experiences a state of imbalance resulting from a power-generation deficit. The method further includes adjusting the magnitude of the operating reserve on the basis of the forecasting.

Abstract: Systems and methods for cooling an Integrated Circuit (IC) are provided. In one embodiment, the system includes a vessel for holding a coolant in a liquid phase, where the IC is at least in part thermally coupled to the coolant to transfer heat generated by the IC to the coolant. The system also includes a controller for periodically increasing a heat flux supplied by the IC to the coolant followed by a reduction of the heat flux supplied by the IC to the coolant. Methods for controlling the operational parameters of the IC to periodically increasing and then decreasing the heat flux supplied by the IC to the coolant are also provided. A sensor may be used to sense a state of phase change of the coolant and which generates a signal that the controller uses to adjust the heat flux supplied by the IC.
Abstract: A system for cooling a CPU. The system has a tank for holding dielectric coolant in a liquid phase. The CPU is immersed in the coolant. A cover closes the tank. Electric pathways that convey data to/from the CPU traverse the cover. The electric pathways allow the CPU to exchange data with an external device. In this fashion, the CPU can perform data processing functions while being immersed in dielectric coolant.

Abstract: A support structure for solar panel includes first supports, second supports, first platens, second platens, and optoelectronic units. Two first diversion grooves are formed in an upper part of the top protrusion, and second diversion grooves are respectively formed in the side protrusions. One end of the second support is connected to one side of the first support, and the third diversion grooves is formed in an upper part of each second support. The first platen is disposed on the upper part of the first support. The second platen is disposed on the upper part of the second support. The optoelectronic unit is disposed between the first platen and the first support, and is disposed between the second platen and the second support.

Abstract: This invention describes a stand-alone ozone generator and method to generate high quantities of ozone which can be injected in a multitude of applications where great quantities are needed at a low production cost. This generator can be useful for flue gas oxidation, water purification, HVAC air purification, and any other commercial or industrial process where ozone is needed to oxidize organic or inorganic species. The process relies on the reaction of air or oxygen with a solution of white or yellow phosphorus contained in a reactor. In this method, the ozone generated is purified in-Situ and can be directly used in any process. The elemental phosphorus and the phosphorus derivatives are enclosed in the ozone generator and are not allowed to escape. The process can pay for itself by the sales of the phosphorus derivatives generated through the reaction.
