Title: Control system for an air conditioning/refrigeration system
Inventor: POWELL JAMES W
IPC: F24F11/00
Filed: 1996-05-29
Granted: 1997-09-11
Abstract: A microprocessor-based air conditioning/refrigeration control system adapted for use with a variable speed compressor measures acceleration of the compressor and the temperature or pressure of the refrigerant exiting therefrom, determines the rate of change of the temperature or pressure of the refrigerant, and decreases acceleration of the compressor if the rate of change of the temperature or pressure of the working fluid indicates surging of the compressor. Superheat of the refrigerant is maintained at a first predefined level while the compressor is operating at constant speed and is increased to a second, higher predefined level while the compressor is accelerating. The system is able to diagnose deterioration of the compressor by measuring and comparing power input to the compressor and rate of change of temperature or pressure of the refrigerant at the compressor between initial and subsequent periods, and differentiate between deterioration of a drive component or a pressurizing component of the compressor.

Title: Method of remediation of contaminants in porous media through minimization of buoyancy effects
Inventor: SHOOK G MICHAEL
IPC: C02F1/26
Filed: 1997-11-05
Granted: 2000-12-14
Abstract: A method for controlling vertical migration of contaminants in an aquifer includes introduction of a solubilizing solution having a surfactant and an alcohol or other light co-solvent. The surfactant is selected to solubilize the contaminant. The alcohol or other solvent is selected to provide the microemulsion with a substantially neutral buoyancy with respect to groundwater. The neutral buoyancy of the microemulsion prevents the normal downward movement which is typical of the solubilized dense non-aqueous phase liquid in surfactant-enhanced aquifer remediation. Thus, the risk that any significant amount of the solubilized dense non-aqueous contaminants will migrate vertically can be controlled. The relative tendency for vertical migration may also be reduced by increasing the injection rate or injected fluid viscosity (by adding polymer), or by reducing the well spacing.

Title: Apparatus for and method of evenly distributing an electrical load across a three-phase power distribution network
Inventor: DAVID YAIR
IPC: H02J3/26
Filed: 1996-05-17
Granted: 1999-10-28
Abstract: An apparatus for and method of evenly distributing an electrical load across a three phase power distribution network. The current in each incoming phase and in each branch circuit is measured by a plurality of current sensors. The output of the current sensors are monitored by a processor. Associated with each branch circuit is a multi-pole switch and a conventional circuit breaker. Each switch is able to connect its corresponding branch circuit to any incoming phase or to disconnect the branch circuit from all three phases. The processor periodically monitors the current flowing through each incoming phase and based on branch circuit load conditions, reprograms the switches to keep the branch circuit loads evenly distributed across all three incoming phases. In another embodiment, a summing circuit combines the current capacities of all three incoming phases into a single summed output. This output is subsequently rectified and used to generate a single phase AC voltage which feeds all branch circuits in the system.

Title: Improved ball valve
Inventor: EDWARDS JEFFREY CHARLES
IPC: F16K5/06
Filed: 1999-09-15
Granted: 2002-07-11
Abstract: A ball valve (10) is described which has a ball valve retaining mechanism which, when subject to very slight movement, allows a ball element (20) to be unloaded off a valve seat (48) during rotation, but remain in contact with the valve seat (48) so as to prevent debris ingress between the ball and the valve seat, and to instantaneously reload onto the valve seat upon the event of closure. This instantaneous and automatic redirection of the reaction load path at the occurrence of closure provides an effective seal against high pressure aggressive fluids to prevent fluid escaping beyond the valve components whilst, at the same time, allowing effective rotational movement of the valve to occur without providing rotational reliability. <??>This solution allows conflicting load paths through the valve to be resolved, namely through the trunnion during rotation and through the valve seat during sealing. <IMAGE>
