The present invention relates to a gas analysis apparatus for a secondary battery, the gas analysis apparatus being capable of effectively performing quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis of the gas generated up to the ignition or explosion of the secondary battery.

A semiconductor device manufacturing system and a method for manufacturing semiconductor device are provided. The semiconductor device manufacturing system comprises a valve box module, a controller, a purge gas source and at least one semiconductor manufacturing tool. The valve box module includes at least one stick and a first gas line in fluid communication with the at least one stick. Further, the first gas line includes a pneumatic valve and a pressure transmitter downstream of the pneumatic valve. The controller connects to the pneumatic valve and the pressure transmitter of the first gas line. The purge gas source is in fluid communication with the first gas line. The at least one semiconductor manufacturing tool is coupled to the at least one stick.

A system and method of maintaining back pressure located downstream of the Coriolis meter maintains the pressure downstream of the Coriolis meter in relation to the surface back pressure (SBP). At least one flow control device is located downstream of the Coriolis meter. The flow control device of the present invention (the BPV) automatically maintains the downstream pressure to less than or equal to fifty percent (50%) of the surface back pressure. A pressure regulator sets the back pressure to allow for a standalone device. Additional valves allow adjustment of the back pressure and allow for pressure relief and full flow bypass.

A method of controlling an ACV to increase a rate of temperature increase of exhaust gas and prevent excessive oil consumption may include a closing step of closing the ACV using a controller when regeneration of an exhaust gas after-treatment device is required, and an adjusting step of opening or closing the ACV using the controller in accordance with whether the pressure in an intake manifold is positive pressure or negative pressure.

A system and a method for dispensing a liquefied fuel (e.g., hydrogen) are provided. The system includes a cryotank for storing a liquefied fuel, a pump insertable into the cryotank, and a switching valve. The pump has a piston, an intake port, and an isolation valve configured to supply the liquefied fuel to the intake port. The switching valve is controlled to flow the vapor from the pump and the liquefied fuel contacting a backside of the piston to the intake port of the pump. At least one block valve is also connected with the cryotank and the pump. At least one of the switching valve, the at least one block valve, and the isolation valve can be controlled to operate the system in one of three working modes including a pressure increase mode, a pressure maintaining mode, and a pressure decrease mode.

Methods of using split G-quadruplexes associated with functional tags for associating said tags to target nucleic acids. Methods include use of split G-quadruplexes associated with detection tags for the detection of target nucleic acids, and use of split G-quadruplexes associated with capture tags for detection or capture of target nucleic acids.

A pressure control device maintains a pressure within a target of pressure control at a set pressure. The pressure control device includes a correction circuit that corrects a pressure signal, which represents the pressure within the target of pressure control that is detected by a pressure sensor, such that the pressure signal approaches a set pressure signal representing the set pressure; a comparison circuit that compares the corrected pressure signal with the set pressure signal; and a valve drive circuit that controls an opening and closing of a flow control valve based on a comparison result from the comparison circuit. The correction circuit is a filter circuit. The frequency characteristic of the filter circuit has a peak at a prescribed frequency, and corrects the pressure signal so as to raise a component of the prescribed frequency of the pressure signal.

A vehicle air management system is provided. The vehicle air management system comprises an air tank and a boost air tank. Based on a signal indicative of an air consumption level of at least one air consumer, a control unit is configured to control the vehicle air management system to deliver pressurized air from the boost air tank to be supplied to an air compressor.

Exhaust nozzles for outflow valves (OFVs) that are usefully employed in aircraft pressurization systems include an upstream solid (e.g., cylindrical) wall section and a downstream solid exhaust wall section fixed to the upstream solid wall section. The downstream solid exhaust wall section includes a circumferential portion defining a series of air intake perforations. A pair of vortex generators may also be provided upstream of the series of air intake perforations. The air intake perforations and optional vortex generators thereby allow air from the ambient pressure environment to be introduced into the boundary layer of pressurized air discharged by the OFV in the interior of the perforated region of the downstream solid exhaust wall section of the nozzle thereby reducing adverse pressure gradients therewithin which in turn results in a more attached air flow and hence less perceived noise.

A method for closed-loop controlling, in particular closed-loop pressure controlling, a piezo valve device, including the steps: calculating a control error integral signal representing a time integral of a control error of the closed-loop control of the piezo valve device, adjusting, based on the control error integral signal, at least one control opening voltage value defining within the closed-loop control an opening voltage value of a piezo valve of the piezo valve device, and using the adjusted at least one control opening voltage value, providing at least one drive voltage for driving the piezo valve within the closed-loop control.
