摘要:
Acoustic energy is used to control motion in a fluid. According to one embodiment, the invention directs acoustic energy at selected naturally occurring nucleation features to control motion in the fluid. In another embodiment, the invention provides focussed or unfocussed acoustic energy to selectively placed nucleation features to control fluid motion. According to one embodiment, the invention includes an acoustic source, a controller for controlling operation of the acoustic source, and one or more nucleation features located proximate to or in the fluid to be controlled.

There is disclosed a system and method of formulating a batch comprising at least two ingredients. The ingredients are admitted to a container to partially fill it. The quantities of the ingredient in the container are determined, and a ratio of a target quantity to the determined current quantity for at least one ingredient is calculated. The next quantity of that ingredient to be admitted to the admixture is calculated by multiplying the target quantity by the calculated ratio to determine a corrected quantity. The corrected quantity of the ingredient is admitted to the admixture, and a quantity of another ingredient is admitted to the admixture to adjust the proportion of ingredients to the target formulation. These steps may be repeated until the batch is completed.

A rapid process for making transparent tints that match the color and tinting strength of a standard tint. The process involves the use of a faster and more accurate shading technique that utilizes the light transmittance properties of the tints in the wet over the visible spectrum and calculates therefrom the amount of components required to bring the tint within an acceptable match to the standard.

A method for the preparation of nonalcoholic beverages, especially carbonated beverages, and an apparatus for the practice of the method. First a sugar solution of prescribed concentration is prepared by dissolving sugar in deaerated water with an oxygen content below 0.15 mg/l. The sugar solution is adjusted in an additional deaeration to an oxygen content of less than 0.1 mg/l. The deaerated sugar solution can be finally adjusted to a prescribed concentration with deaerated water and carbonated, and finally it is mixed with flavorings specific to the beverage.

A method for mixing fluids in containers may include performing a mixing procedure on a plurality of containers on a container support, at least a portion of the plurality of containers being differently sized. The mixing procedure may include a plurality of mixing phases, wherein in each mixing phase the container support may be subjected to a mixing motion at a single rate for a period of time of about 5 seconds or longer, and wherein the single rate for at least one mixing phase of the plurality of mixing phases may differ from the single rate for at least one other mixing phase of the plurality of mixing phases. The mixing procedure also may include at least one non-mixing phase, wherein the container support may not be subjected to the mixing motion.

Embodiments provide mixing methods, systems, apparatuses, devices and assemblies that enable high-accuracy mixing of two or more substances in a manner that controls the concentrations of one or more substances in the resulting mixture. A mixing apparatus (100) may enable mixing of two or more substances at a mixing zone or conduit (112). The mixing apparatus may include one or more sensors (120) for detecting one or more characteristics of the mixture during the mixing process. The sensors may detect the mixture characteristics continuously, at intervals or as prompted by a user. The mixture characteristics may be used, in the sensors or in control circuitry, to generate an indication of the concentration of a first constituent substance in the mixture. Based on the detected concentration, the mixing apparatus may automatically adjust a supply of the first substance to the mixing zone or conduit (112).

A system and method for dosing at least two concentrates into water for on-line preparation of a medical fluid may include a main line for feeding of water, a first line with a first pump for feeding a first concentrate into the main line at a first mixing point, a second line with a second pump for feeding a second concentrate into the main line at a second mixing point, wherein a main concentration sensor measures the concentration in the main line downstream of the first and the second mixing points, wherein control of the dosing of the first concentrate is initially under feedback control from the main concentration sensor to the first pump, and when a value for a feeding parameter for the first pump is determined the feedback control is moved, so that the value for the feeding parameter is used to control the first pump.
摘要:
A method for automatic speed control of an orbital shaker device to determine one of at least two stacked orbital shaker devices operating in an out of balance condition includes the steps of a) Starting the first orbital shaker device, b) Accelerating the first orbital shaker device, and c) Determining a vibration level of the first orbital shaker device, and d) Automatically decreasing a speed of the first orbital shaker device if the vibration level determined in step c) exceeds a predefined first threshold, wherein the steps a) to d) are additionally executed for a second orbital shaker device independently from the first orbital shaker device.
摘要:
An apparatus (2) for dissolving a gas into a liquid includes a liquid inlet (4) for supplying liquid into the apparatus, a gas inlet (6) for supplying gas into the liquid within the apparatus and a venturi (52) arranged to dissolve the gas into the liquid passing through the venturi. The apparatus also includes an outlet (18) for the liquid and dissolved gas downstream of the venturi. At least part of the liquid inlet, at least part of the gas inlet, at least part of the venturi and at least part of the outlet are formed in an integrally formed piece of material (42).
