Abstract: Provided is a heat generating arrangement and a method for generation of heat to be used in a heat consumer. The heat generating arrangement uses combustion of aluminium and hydrogen to raise the temperature of superheated steam inside the heat generating arrangement. The heat in the superheated steam can thereafter be used in a heat consumer, such as a heat exchanger.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method (300) for displaying a perspective view of the surrounding of an aircraft (100) in an aircraft. The method comprises accessing (310) surrounding information from a database. The surrounding information is photo-based and three-dimensional. The method further comprises processing (320) the accessed surrounding information so that a perspective view of the surrounding of the aircraft is provided. The perspective view of the surrounding correlates to the position of the aircraft and is photo-based with spatially correlated photo-based textures. The method further comprises transmitting (360) the provided perspective view of the surrounding of the aircraft to a displaying unit so that it can be displayed in the aircraft. The present disclosure also relates to a system, an aircraft, a use, a computer program, and a computer program product.

Abstract: An antenna system for providing identification functionality comprising a main antenna and an auxiliary antenna, wherein the antennas are configured to at least transmit electromagnetic waves. The antenna system comprises a first channel interface and a second channel interface, a first switch and a transmission input means. The first switch is configured to switch between a first operation mode and a second operation mode. When set in the first operation mode the second channel interface is set to be in connection with the auxiliary antenna and when set in the second operation mode the second channel interface is set to be in connection with the main antenna. If transmission via the first transmission channel is expected the transmission input means is configured to set the first switch in the first operation mode. Thereby the main antenna can be used for transmission of signals both provided via the first and second channel interfaces and when transmission via the first and second channel interfaces simultaneously is required the signal provided via the first channel interface will be transmitted by the main antenna and the signal provided via the second channel interface will be transmitted by the auxiliary antenna.
