Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a corresponding system for controlling energy streams in order to connect operations of an electricity distribution network (1) and a heat distribution network (2) by means of an intermediate energy storage unit (3). According to the invention, the power balance and quality of current and voltage of the electricity distribution network (1) are adjusted by supplying the losses provided by adjustment of the electricity distribution network to the energy storage unit (3) in the form of heat, and from the energy storage unit the heat is extracted to the heat distribution network (2) according to the heat requirement of the heat distribution network.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to an apparatus for separating and utilizing carbon dioxide. According to the invention, carbon dioxide (3a, 3b) is separated from air (1a) being conducted to a building and/or from air (1c,1d) being circulated in the building to reduce the level of carbon dioxide in indoor air (1b) of the building (4), the carbon dioxide (3a, 3b) is recovered, and the carbon dioxide is conducted to a carbon dioxide treatment stage (5), where a chemical compound (6) is formed from the carbon dioxide. In addition, the invention relates to the use of the method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a joint between a copper short-circuiting ring (1) and a copper bar (2) of the damper winding in a permanent magnet synchronous machine, wherein the end of the bar is jointed to a hole (9) disposed in the short-circuiting ring by welding them together at the mating surfaces. Further, the invention relates to a corresponding method. According to the invention the short-circuiting ring (1) includes a blocking structure for limiting the heat flux from being conducted further into the short-circuiting ring from the weld between the short-circuiting ring and the bar.

Abstract: The invention relates to an axial flux induction electrical machine comprising a frame, a shaft (1) bearing-mounted to the frame, a disc-like rotor (2) supported to the shaft, a stator (4) comprising a stator winding (3) and supported by the frame on the first side of the rotor in axial direction. The disc-like rotor (2) comprises a non-ferromagnetic rotor frame (8) fabricated of a material with high electrical conductivity and comprising a uniform inner periphery (9) and an outer periphery (10) and conductor bars (11) fabricated of the same material and galvanically connecting the peripheries (11), the conductor bars together with the inner and outer peripheries forming in addition to the rotor frame also the cage winding of the rotor.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for the manufacture of a cooking vessel, such as a frying pan (12) or a kettle from a metal blank. The vessel is manufactured by roll forming techniques by using a lower tool (3) that rotates around its axis (2), the form face (6, 7) of the lower tool being designed so that it corresponds to the outer surface of the thus created vessel, and an upper tool (5) that rotates around its axis (4), the surface (9, 10) of the upper tool having a profile that corresponds to the inner surface formed to the vessel. The blank is placed on the form face of the lower tool and the tools (3, 5) are then made to rotate so that the blank rotates along with the lower tool (3), and the surface of the upper tool (5) is in linear roll contact with the blank, whereby the metal is formed in the slot between the tools, spreading out into the desired form of the vessel. A vertical wall on the lower tool adjacent the blank may prevent the blank from becoming dislocated on the lower tool.
