  • Patent number: 6643605
    Abstract: A method and a device for determining an enthalpy of wet steam, in particular of wet steam at an outlet of a steam turbine. A part volume flow of the wet steam is mixed with a reference gas to form a mixture, so that the liquid constituents of the part volume flow evaporate completely. An enthalpy of the reference gas and an enthalpy of the mixture is then determined by measured physical variables and an enthalpy of the wet steam is calculated from these enthalpies.

  • Publication number: 20030003456
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system of identifying biologically active molecules. Evaluating receptor or target suitability of molecules is an important task in pharmaceutical drug research. With the increasing employment of automation techniques over the last years within Drug Discovery processes, methods like High-Throughput-Screening (HTS) and High-Throughput-Synthesis have become industry standards in pharmaceutical research. Nowadays, it is possible to test more than 20,000 molecules per day for their biological activities in certain disease targets. Also in the area of chemical synthesis, combinatorial chemistry in combination with automation processes, hundreds of molecules per day can be made physically available.
