  • Publication number: 20100245408
    Abstract: A display device (10) includes an upper substrate (first substrate) (2), a lower substrate (second substrate) (3), and a conductive liquid (16) that is sealed in a display space (S) formed between the upper substrate (2) and the lower substrate (3) so as to be moved toward an effective display region (P1) or a non-effective display region (P2). In the display device (10), a signal electrode (4), a reference electrode (5), and a scanning electrode (6) are configured so that voltages in a predetermined voltage range can be independently applied to the respective electrodes. The same voltages (third voltage and fourth voltage) are applied to the reference electrode (5) and the scanning electrode (6) that are provided on the lower substrate (3) so as to be located on the effective display region (P1) side and the non-effective display region (P2) side, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20100182290
    Abstract: A display device (10) includes an upper substrate (first substrate) (2), a lower substrate (second substrate) (3), and a conductive liquid (16) that is movably sealed in a display space (S) formed between the upper substrate (2) and the lower substrate (3). In the display device (10), a signal electrode (first electrode) (4) made of a material that is electrochemically inert to the conductive liquid (16) is placed in the display space (S). Moreover, a scanning electrode (second electrode) (5) and a reference electrode (third electrode) (6) are provided on the lower substrate (3).

  • Publication number: 20080236139
    Abstract: To provide a power generation system that prevents a reduction in the efficiency of a steam turbine due to an aperture adjustment of a turbine governing valve. There is provided a power generation system comprising: a furnace in which a solid fuel or a liquid fuel is combusted; a steam turbine that generates electric power by rotating a turbine rotor using steam generated by the furnace; a superheater that is provided between the furnace and the steam turbine and that superheats the steam; a first steam piping that connects the furnace to the superheater; a second steam piping that connects the superheater to the steam turbine; a first valve provided in the first steam piping; a turbine governing valve provided in the second steam piping; and a control section that adjusts an aperture of the first valve according to a load of the steam turbine.
