Membrane for electroacoustic transducer systems

Diaphragm for electroacoustic transducer systems

The invention relates to diaphragms with predominantly resistance braking for electroacoustic transducer systems which have a high degree of pulse accuracy during the signal conversion and are therefore particularly suitable for faithful reproduction of music and speech signals. The previously known transducer systems having predominantly resistance braking exhibit considerable inadequacies with respect to the sound pressure level which can be radiated undistorted and a radiation which is strongly focused in the direction of the axis of symmetry in the high-frequency range of music. These defects have their cause in the design of the diaphragm as an annularly driven plate which is exclusively characterised by damped flexural vibrations. In the transducer systems according to the invention, the diaphragm consists of two functionally different components, a central inner part-area (1) vibrating in the form of a piston being provided, on the one hand, and an outer part-area (2) excited into damped flexural vibrations by the inner part-area (1) being radially arranged, on the other hand, so that the abovementioned inadequacies do not occur. Figure 1 shows a transducer system with the two diaphragm part-areas (1; 2) according to the invention, in which the inner part-area (1), in particular, can have a greater thickness of material than shown in a practical embodiment. <IMAGE>

二酸化炭素と硫化水素を削減する方法

【課題】本発明は、地層中の二酸化炭素（ＣＯ２）および／または硫化水素（Ｈ２Ｓ）を削減する方法およびシステムに関するものである。【解決手段】水は、水源から注入井戸にポンプまたは移送される。水の水圧が合流点でのＣＯ２および／またはＨ２Ｓガスの圧力よりも低い条件下で、ガスを水に合流させる。ＣＯ２および／またはＨ２Ｓガスの気泡を含んだ水は、ＣＯ２および／またはＨ２Ｓガスの気泡の上昇流速よりも高い一定の速度でさらに下方に移送され、圧力の上昇により水中のＣＯ２および／またはＨ２Ｓが完全に溶解するようにガスの気泡が下方に移動する。この完全溶解により、地層（例えば、地熱貯留層）に流入する水のｐＨが低下し、ＣＯ２やＨ２Ｓの削減につながる鉱物反応が促進されることが必要である。この削減量は、溶解したＣＯ２やＨ２Ｓに対して所定のモル比でトレーサー物質を溶解することで定量化でき、モニタリング井戸中でモニターされる。【選択図】なし

A method of abating carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide

This invention relates to a method and a system of abating carbon dioxide (CO2) and/or hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in a geological reservoir. Water is pumped or transferred from a water source to an injection well. The gasses are merged with the water under conditions where the hydraulic pressure of the water is less or equal to the pressure of CO2 and/or H2S gas at the merging point. The water with dissolved CO2 and/or H2S is transfen-ed further downwardly with at a certain velocity, whereafter the dissolved CO2 and/or H2S is injected into the geological (e.g. geothermal) reservoir.

The complete dissolution ensures a lowered pH of the water entering a geological (e.g. geothermal) reservoir which is needed to promote mineral reactions leading to CO 2 and H 2 S abatement This abatement may be quantified by dissolving a tracer substance in a predetermined molar ratio to said dissolved CO 2 and/or H 2 S and monitored in a monitoring well.
