  • Publication number: 20240385020
    Abstract: A method for detecting a flow time which a fluid requires to flow through a measurement path from a manipulation location to a detection location spaced from the manipulation location in a flow direction of the fluid, the method including the steps A) providing a flow of the fluid, B) changing a nuclear magnetic or electron magnetic polarization of the fluid at the manipulation location at a first point in time, C) measuring a magnetic flux density of a magnetic field emanating from the fluid due to the nuclear magnetic or electron magnetic polarization as a function of time at the detection location, and D) determining the flow time as a difference between the first point in time and a second point in time. At the second point in time the changing of the nuclear magnetic or electron magnetic polarization at the manipulation location from step B) causes a change in the flux density of the magnetic field emanating from the fluid at the detection location, and a flow meter for carrying out such a method.

  • Publication number: 20240319020
    Abstract: A method of calibrating temperature of a resistive element includes: generating a standard resistance-temperature (R-T) curve for the resistive element in an isothermal condition, wherein the resistive element comprises a material with a Curie temperature; generating an operational R-T curve for the resistive element during a normal operation of the resistive element; shifting the operational R-T curve toward the standard R-T curve at the Curie temperature to generate an adjusted operational R-T curve; and adjusting a measured temperature of the resistive element based on a resistance of the resistive element and the adjusted operational R-T curve.

  • Publication number: 20220170389
    Abstract: A chemical plant and operating method therefor; the chemical plant comprises a steam turbine having a shaft, a first pressure turbine stage and a second pressure turbine stage, each being arranged on the shaft and being connected in series in terms of the steam process; steam for driving the steam turbine is obtained from a reactor plant, said reactor plant producing a hydrogen-containing substance from a carbon-containing energy-carrier stream; the steam is heated in an overheating step before being supplied to the second pressure turbine stage; the steam turbine has a third pressure turbine stage which is arranged on the shaft and which is connected between the first pressure turbine stage and the second pressure turbine stage in terms of the steam process; and the steam passes through the overheating step after exiting the third pressure turbine stage.

  • Publication number: 20070282875
    Abstract: Generally speaking, pursuant to these various embodiments, one provides (101) a schema that specifies, at least in part, constraints with respect to structure and content to be imposed with respect to corresponding schema-based documents. This schema is then used (102) to specify a computable specification for a command line interface to be used with a particular corresponding component. By one approach this computable specification comprises at least one facility specification. This facility specification in turn comprises, at least in part, at least one of an operating parameter (or parameters) as pertain to the particular corresponding component and/or a method (or methods) that are capable of being effected via the particular corresponding component. This computable specification is then used (103) to derive at least one of a corresponding command line interface implementation for the particular corresponding component and/or a graphical user interface for a corresponding management application.
