Abstract: A diffuser arranged at the downstream side of a blower, the diffuser including a conical diffuser shroud with a back draft damping butterfly valve arranged in the diffuser opening, and where the butterfly valve includes two doors both being attached to the diffuser shroud via a hinge arrangement adapted for allowing each of the two doors to rotate between a closed and an open position about the hinge axes extending between opposite sides of the diffuser shroud and where the doors are shaped so that they together substantially close the diffuser opening when they are in their closed position, and wherein each hinge axis intersects the diffuser shroud at a position closer to the upstream side at one side than on the opposite side of the diffuser shroud.

Abstract: Featured are methods of treating a patient with cancer by administering, e.g., a secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) hydrolysable, cisplatin-containing liposome composition (e.g., LiPlaCis). The patient may be assessed for their responsiveness to the liposomal therapy prior to treatment using the methods, devices, and kits also described herein for detecting a level of one or more biomarkers in a sample from the patient with cancer.

Abstract: A roller press (1) is described for grinding of particulate material such as cement raw materials, cement clinker and similar materials, which roller press (1) comprises two oppositely rotating rollers (2, 3) forming between them a roller gap (4) and a co-rotating annular disc (5), which in concentric manner is attached to an end surface (6, 7) of one of the rollers (2) by means of a number of resilient attachment elements (8) and being movable in the direction of the roller axis, where the outer diameter of said annular disc (5) is greater than the diameter of said one of the rollers (2), hence the annular disc (5) in the area of the roller gap (4) extends toward the other roller (3), thus covering at least part of the roller gap (4).

Abstract: An electrical machine has a stator-rotor configuration in which the rotor has at least two poles. The poles are configured to rotate in an angle and to electromagnetically interact with one or more teeth that is a part of a stator adjoined in a fixed position to the electrical machine. The configuration forms a gap in the lateral direction between the poles and the teeth. At least one of the poles is formed of a permanent magnet material and a magnetic flux intensifier is arranged relative to at least one of the poles and one of the teeth. The magnetic flux intensifier is configured to concentrate the magnetic field lines between a pole and the teeth.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a wind turbine having a wind turbine tower with a nacelle provided on the top to which a rotor hub with one or more wind turbine blades is rotatably mounted by a rotor shaft. A generator is arranged in the nacelle, wherein the superconducting rotor coils induce a current in the stator coils when the rotor is rotated, and wherein the stator coils are arranged in at least four phases. One or more converter modules convert the power output from the generator so that it matches the power of a power grid. The generator side of the converter modules comprises a number of rectifying circuits equal to the phases in the generator, while the power grid side comprises a number of inverting circuits equal to the phases of the power grid. This allows the transient of the electromagnetic brake torque relative to the nominal electromagnetic torque of the generator to be reduced.

Abstract: A method is for communicating by tracking time varying channels in a multiple access packet based communication network. Each packet includes a preamble portion including a data symbol, and a data portion including data symbols. The method may include initializing a channel estimate reference from an initial channel estimate based upon the data symbol in a preamble portion of a received packet, and updating the channel estimate reference based upon a channel estimate of a current data symbol and a previously received data symbol from the data symbols in a data portion of the received packet. The method may also include repeating the updating upon receipt of a subsequent data symbol from the data symbols in the data portion of the received packet.
