  • Publication number: 20070220918
    Abstract: A method of setting a set point pressure of a back-up supply to supply gaseous product to the pipeline should pipeline pressure fall below the set point pressure. The pipeline and the back-up supply are part of a gas distribution network also having a production facility for supplying the pipeline with the gaseous product at the target pressure for distribution to customers connected to the pipeline. The set point pressure for the back-up gas supply is continuously calculated by calculating a series of pressure drops for each of the customers being fed by the pipeline and then determining required customer site pressures by adding the minimum contracted supply pressure for each of the customers to their respective pressure drops. The maximum required customer site pressure is utilized as the set point pressure for the back-up supply.

  • Publication number: 20060167765
    Abstract: A method for generating a page for charitable fund raising over a network. A user creates a definition for a fund raising event and transfers the definition to a fund raising server, which generates event information (e.g., an event record). The user selects a non-profit organization and transfers the selection to the fund raising server, which generates organization information (e.g., organization record). The fund raising server generates a mapping (e.g., mapping record) of the event information to the organization information. The fund raising server creates a fund raising page accessible over the network based on input from the user and providing a link from the fund raising page to the mapping. The user is also able to nominate a non-profit organization which is not yet available for selection, which is then vetted by the fund raising server.
