  • Patent number: 11391288
    Abstract: A turbo machine, a computer-implemented method, and a computer system for operating a compressor assembly are provided. The method includes comparing a first data set and a second data set to determine a first correlation factor, comparing the first correlation factor to a first threshold that at least partially determines whether a stall precursor exists, removing mean values from the first data set and the second data set, comparing the first data set and the second data set each removed of mean values to determine a second correlation factor, and comparing the second correlation factor to the first threshold, and classifying the stall precursor as either a spike stall precursor, a modal stall precursor, or a combination stall precursor.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10823067
    Abstract: The heat exchanger assembly includes a first conduit, an external surface, and a set of fins. The first conduit includes a first inlet, a first outlet, and a first internal flow path extending between the first inlet and first outlet. The first conduit is configured to channel a flow of fluid to be cooled from the first inlet to the first outlet. The external surface which includes a plurality of regions. Each region of the plurality of regions includes a respective set of fins extending from the external surface. Each set of fins of a respective region of the plurality of regions are oriented in a different direction than sets of fins of other regions of the plurality of regions.
