A device including a first discharge passage from a first rotor assembly to an engine, a first return passage that returns to an intake side of the first rotor assembly, a second discharge passage from a second rotor assembly to the engine, a second return passage that returns to an intake side of the second rotor assembly, and a pressure control valve whose valve main body is provided between a discharge port from the second rotor assembly and the first discharge passage. The first discharge passage and the second discharge passage are coupled, and a flow passage control is executed in each of: a low revolution range; an intermediate revolution range; and a high revolution range.

Embodiments disclosed herein provide data management systems with an ability to integrate parent-child and peer-to-peer relationships (e.g., hierarchies) in a single interface, allowing a user to parent / unparent, link / unlink, merge / unmerge, and modify trusted attributes in a single interaction using highly accurate algorithms to provide data, including hints and recommendations for the management of these hierarchies. A user interface allows a user to perform hierarchy global management functions including read, write, business-to-business (B2B) search, navigation, and maintenance.

An exercise apparatus for permitting a user to build muscle strength in an ergonomic fashion comprising a weighted body with a first and second opposing faces with a handle attached to the body in a manner that permits the user to grip the apparatus during use without having to grip the body directly, and the first face comprises an ergonomic generally concave surface configured to more closely conform to the user's forearm profile when the apparatus is gripped by the user in a manner such that the body comes in contact with the user's forearm. Alternate embodiment incorporates a second face comprising an ergonomic generally concave surface.

An optical lens, has a marking entirely or partially outside an effective area of the lens to distinguish between surfaces of the lens.

This invention relates to a composition and a method for inhibiting the formation of scale, particularly complex scale, in an aqueous system where more than one type of scale is present. The scale typically present in the aqueous system includes silica, silicates, and carbonates. The scale inhibiting composition comprises (1) 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid and salts thereof, and (2) a copolymer of (1) one or more allyloxybenzenesulfonate monomers, and (2) one or more water-soluble acrylic monomers, substituted acrylic monomers, or mixtures thereof.

A method and apparatus for eliminating brine effluent from desalination plants by distillation, is disclosed. To eliminate the brine the salt is converted into a solid and all of the water in the brine is converted to distilled water. The key to achieving this is reducing or eliminating the scale formation in the heating chamber. In one embodiment the process can be used to reduce or eliminate scale formation in a vapor compression sea water desalinization system and there-by use this system to produce drinking water. This process requires no chemical additives but relies entirely upon separation of the process of vaporization of the fluid involved, from the process of heating of the fluid. In one embodiment of this apparatus sea water can be desalinated and the resulting products can be dry salt and pure water leaving no brine return to the ocean. This embodiment also can be used to desalinate concentrated brine from any available source and make a profit on the salt sales, as the salt sells for more than it costs to produce the water and salt separation.

A method for tuning memory parameter values and a computer system using the same are disclosed. In the invention, the computer system provides an embedded controller which may accumulate a counting value and send a reset signal to reboot the computer system. Firstly, the embedded controller reloads a memory parameter value corresponding to the counting value. Then, the computer system executes a memory test procedure. When the memory test procedure successes, a BIOS stores the memory parameter value. On the contrary, when the memory test procedure fails, the embedded controller accumulates the counting value and sends the reset signal to reboot the computer system. The BIOS reloading another memory parameter value corresponding to the accumulated counting value and re-executes the memory test procedure.
