Abstract: An electromagnetic valve for a pressure container and which includes a manual shut-off of the valve, a stop, and an electromagnetic shut-off of the valve with a sealing element, a magnet coil, a tappet, and a spring element. When the magnet coil has been currentlessly switched and deactivated, the tappet pressed against the sealing element by the spring element presses the sealing element onto a second opening so as to suppress a fluidic connection from the pressure container. Also, when the magnet coil is activated, the tappet can be moved away from the sealing element as far as the stop, such that the fluidic connection can be released.

The test environment is selected according to the testing characteristic that indicates the effects that the testing of the selected computer application has on the test environment. This allows users to select a test environment based on the effects that it has on a test system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an evaporation heat transfer tube with a hollow cavity, comprising a tube main body and at least one hollow frustum structure. Outer fins are arranged at intervals on the outer surface of the tube main body and inter-fin grooves are formed between two adjacent outer fins. The hollow frustum structure is arranged at the bottom of the inter-fin grooves and surrounded by side walls. The top of the hollow frustum structure is provided with an opening. The side walls extend inwards and upwards from the bottom of the inter-fin grooves and thus the area of the opening is less than the area of the bottom of the hollow frustum structure. The inner surface and the outer surface of the side walls are intersected at the opening to form a flange. Preferably, the flange is a sharp corner and the radius of the curvature is 0 to 0.01 mm. The side walls are formed by at least two surfaces which are connected to each other.

Abstract: An adjustment unit for a vehicle seat is disclosed. Said adjustment unit comprises an inclination adjustment mechanism for the backrest of the vehicle seat.

Abstract: Disclosed is method of operating a fuel cell which can output an electrical maximum power dependent on the operating temperature for a given fuel gas flow, and which exhibits aging in dependence on the operating duration which brings about an increase of the electrical internal resistance with progressive operating duration. In the disclosed method, the starting value (T0) of the operating temperature for a new fuel cell or for a new fuel cell stack is typically smaller than or equal to the operating temperature, at which the electrical maximum power is achieved and the fuel cell or the fuel cell stack is regulated such that the decrease of the output electrical power as a consequence of aging is partly or completely compensated in that the operating temperature (T) of the fuel cell or of the fuel cell stack is increased with progressive aging.
