Title: Security gateway
Inventor: Peter Richard Tuson
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2015-05-27
Abstract: This application discloses a one way, or unidirectional, network that allows a first user 102, to transfer data to a second user 122. The first user has a secure computer 104, and when he sends a message, or data, it is passed through a firewall 106, which then transfers it to a server 108, which has a message transfer agent 110 on it. This is then passed into a logic block, which may be a field programmable gate array or FPGA 112, which then transfers it to a second server 114, which has a second MTA 116 on it. It then goes through a second firewall 118 and arrives at the second users, unsecured, computer 120. The FPGA allows data to flow from the first user to the second user, but not from the second user to the first user.

Title: Pipe leak measurement and assessment
Inventor: Jakobus Ernst Van Zyl
IPC: F17D5/02
Filed: 2016-10-17
Abstract: A method of estimating characteristics of new leaks that have formed in an isolated section of a water distribution system that is supplied through a pressure reducing valve is provided. The pressure reducing valve is used to vary the pressure in the isolated section of the system to at least two different pressure settings during a minimum night flow period at which the measuredpressure and flow rate into the system are taken at each pressure setting. The leak characteristics are estimated by subtracting an estimated user consumption from the measured flow rate in each instance. The same measurements are repeated one or more days later. The estimated leak characteristics derived on a later date are compared with those derived on an earlier date to establish a difference in the estimated leak characteristics to determine if there isa new leak or leaks in the isolated section of the system.
