Abstract: The apparatus has an area whose cross-section(1) can be varied to suit the extruded material. A wound section of flat material(3) forms the adjustable area. Wound flat material(3) comprises a thin metal sheet or several layers of one or more different materials. When wound the material forms overlapped areas in which the layers lie closely on top of each other. An inner end(7) of the wound material has a continuously decreasing thickness and is angled to the contact surface of the outer area of the flat material where it forms a helical line around the extrusion axis. Tags(10) at one end of the wound flat material aid guidance of the extruded product. Elongated holes extend either radially or at variable angles to the extrusion axis around the wound material in the overlapping area and remain partly uncovered. A mechanism(2) for varying the cross-section comprises moving rods arranged around the wound material. Alternatively the wound material is fastened at an outer end onto an operating mechanism. Independent claims are included for: a) a method for guiding and forming a extrudate in which the die gap and/or diameter of an extruder head is varied using an area of variable cross-section(1); b) an extrusion plant with extruder, extrusion head and calibration unit in which variation of the melt flow gap in the extruder head can be synchronized with the area of variable cross-section using the plant control unit.

Abstract: A method and system is provided for identifying in-range sensor faults in a gas turbine engine (40), by observing the tracked component qualities in an embedded model (10) and recognizing anomalous patterns of quality changes corresponding to sensor errors. An embedded model of the engine (10) is employed to estimate sensed parameters (54) such as rotor speeds, temperatures and pressures, as well as other parameters that are computed based on input parameters. Each major rotating component of the engine (40), including the fan (12), compressor (14), combustor (24), turbines (16), (18), duct (30) and nozzles (26), (32), is individually modeled. Sensor failures are detected by identifying anomalous patterns in component quality parameters (54). A library of anomalous patterns is provided for comparing quality parameters generated by a tracking filter (48) with the library of anomalous patterns. If a pattern is matched, a sensor may be eliminated from the tracking filter (48) and the estimated model parameter (54) used to avoid corrupting the model quality parameters (50).
