Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for measuring the flow of a liquid medium having variable gas content, on the basis of a differential pressure measurement by means of a differential pressure-generating primary element, through which the medium flows, which method comprises: ascertaining a differential pressure measurement value between two measuring points of the differential pressure-generating primary element; ascertaining a flow regime; ascertaining a flow rate measurement value as a function of the differential pressure measurement value and the flow regime, wherein the flow rate measurement value is ascertained by ascertaining a provisional flow rate measurement value on the basis of the differential pressure measurement value under the assumption of a first flow regime, which provisional flow rate measurement value is corrected if a second flow regime different from the first flow regime is detected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing fiber-reinforced flat semifinished products based on a polyamide matrix, comprising the following steps: (a) saturation of textile structures with a mixture comprising molten lactam, catalyst, and optionally activator, (b) cooling of the saturated textile structures, and (c) finishing of the cooled textile structures to give the fiber-reinforced flat semifinished product. The invention further relates to a process for producing a component made of the fiber-reinforced flat semifinished product.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing fiber-reinforced flat semifinished products (3) based on a polyamide matrix, comprising the following steps: (a) saturation of textile structures (15) with a mixture comprising molten lactam, catalyst, and optionally activator, (b) cooling of the saturated textile structures (25), and (c) finishing of the cooled textile structures to give the fiber-reinforced flat semifinished product (3). The invention further relates to a process for producing a component made of the fiber-reinforced flat semifinished product.

Abstract: Disclosed is a tower for a wind power station comprising a machine pod disposed on the tower and a rotor mounted on the machine pod so as to be rotatable about an essentially horizontal axis. Said rotor is provided with at least one blade. The tower is composed of a tubular upper section that is connected to a lower section which is embodied as a lattice tower in a transition zone. The lattice tower encompasses at least three corner posts. The upper tower section forms at least one sixth of the entire tower. The cross section of the lower tower section below the transition zone is greater than the cross section of the upper tower section while the transition zone is configured such that the cross section of the lower tower section is adjusted to the cross section of the upper tower section so as to optimize power flux.
