Title: Systems and methods for acknowledging broadcast messages in a wirelss lighting control netowrk
Inventor: OLIVER JASON LAWRENCE
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 2017-04-20
Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure decrease conflicts between individual lighting devices in a wireless network when responding to a broadcast/multicast message sent to a group of devices. In some embodiments the devices delay sending their acknowledgment to commands until after a specific time period. Some embodiments limit the number of time delays to one of a predetermined number of time delays, where the number of time delays are assigned by an external source, such as the gateway. Still other embodiments include assigning each device one of a limited number of preset time delays, where the total number of preset time delays are less than the number of devices, for example, ten (10) percent of the number of devices (here some devices will have the same time delays as other devices). Still other embodiments use bitmaps to designating which one or more individual devices the message is intended for.

Filed: 2017-06-08
Abstract: Systems and techniques for facilitating digital data prognostics are presented. A system can processes a corpus of stored data, generate respective digital signatures representing respective subsets of the corpus of the stored data, and tag the respective digital signatures with tags corresponding to extrinsic events. The digital signatures can be stored and indexed in a digital signature library. The system can also compare a new digital signature to learned digital signatures in order to identify one or more matches, and prognose an upcoming event associated with the new digital signature based on the matches and generated inferences for the learned digital signatures.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices relating to the determination of a volume of liquid in a container. A pressure sensor is located at a bottom of the container. The pressure sensor senses the pressure exerted on it by the liquid in the container. This pressure is communicated with a data processing device. The data processing device determines the volume of the liquid in the container based on the sensed pressure. This may be done by reference to a look up table containing pressure values and their corresponding volumes. Similarly, this may be done by calculating the volume of the liquid based on the dimensions of the container, the physical qualities of the liquid, and the sensed pressure. The volume of the liquid in the container is then transmitted from the data processing device to a user interface device for presentation to a user.

Filed: 2016-10-21
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés de conversion simultanée de butanes et de méthanol en oléfines sur des catalyseurs à base de zéolite contenant du Ti. L'exothermicité de la réaction des alcools en oléfines est compensée par l'endothermicité de la réaction de déshydrogénation du(des) butane(s) en oléfines légères conduisant à un processus thermo-neutre. Les zéolites contenant du Ti procurent une excellente sélectivité pour les oléfines légères ainsi qu'une stabilité hydrothermique exceptionnellement élevée. La réaction couplée peut être avantageusement effectuée dans un réacteur à étages, des zones de conversion méthanol/DME étant agencées en alternance avec des zones de déshydrogénation de butane(s). Les oléfines légères obtenues peuvent ensuite réagir avec de l'isobutane pour produire un alkylate à indice d'octane élevé. Le résultat net est un procédé économique et très efficace pour la conversion du méthanol et des butanes en alkylate.

Title: Method and system for providing supplemental refrigeration to an air separation plant
Inventor: SARIGIANNIS CATHERINE B
IPC: F25J3/04
Filed: 2016-10-18
Abstract: A system and method for providing supplemental refrigeration to an air separation plant is provided. A closed loop supplemental refrigeration circuit that can be easily retrofitted or added onto an air separation plant that increases the liquid product production capability of the air separation plant. The supplemental refrigeration capacity of the supplemental refrigeration circuit is controlled by removing or adding a portion of the refrigerant in the supplemental refrigeration circuit to adjust the inlet pressure while maintaining a substantially constant volumetric flow rate and substantially constant pressure ratio across the compressor. Removing the refrigerant from the supplemental refrigeration circuit decreases the refrigeration imparted by the supplemental refrigeration circuit and thus provides the capacity to turn-down liquid product make without shutting down the compressors and turbo-expanders in the supplemental refrigeration circuit.
