  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRIORITIZING NAVIGATION DESTINATIONS OF VEHICLES
    Publication number: 20220260385
    Abstract: A system for prioritizing navigation destinations of vehicles. The system includes a communication unit adapted to receive at least one navigation request from a vehicle computing unit, the at least one navigation request being assigned at least one piece of vehicle information and/or piece of driver information, an offer server on which a plurality of offers are stored. A plurality of offer parameters comprise an offer location associated with each offer.

  • STEAM BYPASS CONDUIT
    Publication number: 20210231030
    Abstract: An arrangement for making a flow uniform, having a housing, which is designed to limit the flow, wherein the housing has holes through which the flow flows, as a jet, into a space outside the housing, wherein the holes are spaced apart in such a way that it is not possible for jets coming from two adjacent holes to merge.

  • METHOD FOR OPERATING A STEAM TURBINE WITH TWO STEAM SUPPLY LINES
    Publication number: 20160201500
    Abstract: A steam turbine arrangement and a method for operating a steam turbine, wherein the steam turbine is supplied with steam via a first valve in a first steam supply line and via a second valve in a second steam supply line. The valves are controlled asymmetrically so that in the event of unwanted vibrations measured by acceleration sensors one valve closes and the other valve opens in order to ensure the desired total mass flow.

  • TURBINE CONDENSER FOR A STEAM TURBINE
    Publication number: 20160169053
    Abstract: A turbine condenser includes an area with condenser tubes for liquefying waste steam from the steam turbine, a chamber formed by condenser walls for receiving the waste steam, and a diverted steam channelling system for channelling diverted steam into the chamber in the turbine condenser, wherein the diverted steam channelling system includes an annular nozzle extending into the turbine condenser, the outlet end of which has an uneven edge.
