  • Publication number: 20240171055
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a magnetohydrodynamics power system which utilizes low temperature heat source. Variable control of the operation of the system, along with determining configurations for specific cases, are made possible by selecting the refrigerant, liquid metal circuit geometry, and by adjusting the system condensing pressure and/or temperature. Adjustable condensing pressure and/or temperature allows the system to react to changing ambient temperature and maximize power output. Adjusting condensing pressure and/or temperature of the system is made possible with a variable condenser pressure controller. The variable condenser pressure controller allows utilization of the physical properties of the refrigerant over a wide range of condensing temperatures/pressures, including pressures in the vacuum range.

  • Patent number: 11883228
    Abstract: An electronic stethoscope system comprising a device to capture an acoustic heart signal from a patient and a neural network to classify the data into heart sound categories to provide time series sound category data comprising, for each of a succession of time intervals, category probability data representing a probability of the acoustic signal falling into each of the categories. The stethoscope also includes one or more heart state models each having a sequence of heart cardiac cycle states, a system to fit the time series sound category data to the models and determine timing data for the sequence of heart states and a confidence value for the model fit, and an output to output one or both of a model fit indication dependent upon the confidence value and an indication of the timing data.
