A limit is a certain value to which a function approaches. Finding a limit usually means finding what value y is as x approaches a certain number.

Onboard fuel separation apparatus for an automobile

A fuel separation apparatus includes a fuel tank storing the material fuel fed to a separation membrane, a fuel tank storing a separated low-octane fuel, and a fuel tank storing a separated high-octane fuel. An electronic control unit of the separation apparatus calculates the flow rate (amount of formation) of the high-octane fuel flowing into the high-octane fuel tank based on a change in the liquid level in the tank and on the amount of fuel fed to an engine from the tank, and so judges that an abnormal condition is occurring due to the breakage of the separation membrane when the amount of forming the high-octane fuel is larger than a predetermined upper limit value and that an abnormal condition is occurring due to a drop in the function of the separation membrane when the amount of formation is smaller than a predetermined lower limit value.

Brake control apparatus for vehicle

InactiveUS20070018499A1Suppress spinoutHighly efficient collection of electrical energyPlural diverse prime-mover propulsion mountingPropulsion by batteries/cellsDrive wheelRegenerative brake
A brake apparatus for a vehicle generally sets an upper limit value of regenerative braking force to the maximum value of the regenerative braking force which can be generated at the present. In the case of a front-wheel-drive vehicle, the total braking force, the sum of front-wheel braking force (front-wheel hydraulic braking force+regenerative braking force) and rear-wheel braking force (rear-wheel hydraulic braking force), is rendered coincident with a target braking force corresponding to a brake pedal depressing force, and the regenerative braking force is set to a largest possible value equal to or less than the upper limit value. As a result, the regenerative braking force can be larger than front-wheel-side target distribution braking force. The upper limit value is decreased from the maximum value by an amount corresponding to the degree of easiness of occurrence of a locking tendency at the driven wheels (front wheels).

Intrinsically safe inerting protection method and device for oil storage tank

The invention discloses an intrinsically safe inerting protection method and an intrinsically safe inerting protection device for an oil storage tank, relates to a method and a device for active fire and explosion prevention of the oil storage tank, and aims to solve the problem of fire and explosion prevention of the oil storage tank. The method comprises the following steps: a, performing inerting on each oil tank in sequence to ensure that each oil tank achieves an inexplosive condition, namely, the oxygen concentration of gas in the tank is lower than 10 percent; b, detecting the pressure of a pipe network for supplying inert gas to the oil tank, and supplying the inert gas to the pipe network and inputting the inert gas to the oil tank through the pipe network if the pressure is lower than a set lower limit value; c, detecting the pressure of the pipe network for supplying the inert gas to the oil tank, emitting the inert gas in the pipe network if the pressure exceeds a set upper limit value; and d, detecting the oxygen concentration in the pipe network for supplying the inert gas to the oil tank, and repeating the step a if the concentration exceeds the set upper limit value. The device comprises a buffer device, a breathing pipe network, a first pressure transmitter, a second pressure transmitter, an online oxygen analyzer and an electric control device.

Method for surveying the condition of a control valve, and a valve apparatus

PCT No. PCT/FI97/00359 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 4, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 4, 1999 PCT Filed Jun. 9, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/48026 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 18, 1997A method and a valve apparatus for surveying the condition of a control valve. The position of the valve (101) is adjusted by means of an actuator (103) controlled by an electropneumatic positioner (104) and operated by means of pressure medium. The operation of the valve is monitored by sensors (109, 110, 107) that read the readings from the control signal, the input pressure of the positioner, the difference between the input and output pressure of the actuator, and the position of the valve. A fault causing a deviating reading will be located by using the readings given by the sensors and deduction rules stored in the microprocessor of the actuator. In an initial situation, when the valve is in balance state, the readings given by the sensors are stored at least from the control signal, valve position and the difference between the input and output pressure of the actuator. When the operation is continued, the readings given by the sensors are compared with the readings of the initial situation. If the deviations exceed certain limit values and remain there continuously for a certain period of time, a fault message will be given that indicates the location of the fault.

Battery pack

A protecting circuit monitors a voltage of a secondary battery and supplies the signal to permit a discharge to a gate terminal of a discharge control FET when the voltage is equal to or more than a lower limit value in a rated voltage range. When the discharge control FET receives this signal, it is connected and passes a discharge current. In the other cases, it shuts off the discharge current. Further, when the voltage is equal to or more than a predetermined value, a signal of a voltage of a battery voltage or more is supplied from a voltage converter to the gate terminal. When the voltage is equal to or less than an upper limit value in the rated voltage range, the protecting circuit supplies the signal to permit a charge to a gate terminal of a charge control FET. Further, when the voltage is equal to or more than a predetermined value, the voltage output from the voltage converter is supplied to the gate terminal. A battery pack in which by applying the voltage of the battery voltage or more to the gate terminal, the discharge control FET and the charge control FET are controlled and an energy loss is suppressed to the minimum is provided.
