    摘要： A tube dryer system is used to remove moisture from solid commercial products. The present apparatus includes a condensate vessel that separates condensed steam from excess steam. The excess steam is passed through a thermocompressor and combined with incoming fresh steam to produce a combined steam feed stream having a higher flow rate at only slightly reduced pressure and reduced superheat content, resulting in increased dryer capacity and reduced steam losses with no increase in energy costs.

    摘要： Computer-based methods, computer readable media, and computer program products for intelligently processing primary transactions in which users interact with automated point-of-sale terminals. Various aspects of these methods comprise, at least in part, providing the automated point-of-sale (POS) terminals, which are operable to facilitate primary transactions that involve specific items selected by the user. These methods also include obtaining information representing respective current demand parameters that are associated with the POS terminals, and conducting the primary transactions with the user. The method then analyzes the current demand parameters to determine whether to offer an upsell transaction to the user.
