Abstract: A blower of an HVAC system includes an air inlet, an air outlet, a blower wheel with blades, a motor operable to cause the blower wheel to rotate, and a blower housing within which the blower wheel is positioned. The blower housing includes a top panel, a bottom panel, and a connecting panel. The top panel and the bottom panel are connected to the connecting panel. The top panel includes a curved edge extending from a bottom edge of the connecting panel to a top edge of the connecting panel. An expansion angle of the curved edge of the top panel changes as a function of position along the curved edge of the top panel. The bottom panel may have a shape corresponding to a mirror image to that of the top panel.

Abstract: A mobile application privacy analysis system is described, where the system scans a mobile device to identify files associated with a particular SDK and generates a tokenized name for the SDK. The tokenized name includes tokens representing the SDK vendor and one or more functions of the SDK. Using the tokenized name, the system then determines corresponding categories for each functionality token and score for each such category. Based on the scores, the system determines the most significant category and assigns that category to the SDK for use in privacy analysis. The system may also, or instead, determine a vendor category using the vendor token and assign that category to the SDK. Weighting factors may be applied to the scores for the categories associated with the functionality tokens and vendor tokens.

Abstract: A method and system remotely manage a Mobile Equipment (ME). All the different service provider DM servers interconnected with each other to perform data recovery and locking operations in the ME. The DM servers of multiple service providers collaborate and provide interoperable services to the connected mobile equipments.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) in a primary mobile device are provided. The method includes establishing a device management session with a service provider; receiving an Internet connection-sharing criterion from the service provider; and checking the Internet connection-sharing criterion upon receiving an Internet connection sharing request from a peer mobile device.

Abstract: A venturi assembly for a turbine combustor includes a first outer annular wall and a second intermediate annular wall radially spaced from each other in substantially concentric relationship. The first outer annular wall and said second intermediate annular wall shaped to define a forward, substantially V-shaped throat region, and an aft, axially extending portion. A third radially innermost annular wall is connected to the second intermediate annular wall at an aft end of said throat region. A first plurality of apertures is provided in the first outer annular wall in the substantially V-shaped throat region, and a second plurality of apertures is provided in the aft, axially extending portion of said second intermediate annular wall so that cooling air flows through the first and second pluralities of apertures to impingement cool the third radially innermost annular wall.

Abstract: A fuel nozzle for a gas turbine includes an annular passage configured to flow a fuel and a disk concentric with and disposed at a second end of the annular passage. The disk extends radially outward from the second end. A plurality of passages extend through the disk and are configured to impart swirl to a working fluid flowing through the passages. A shroud including an upstream end axially separated from a downstream end surrounds the disk and extends downstream from the disk.

Abstract: A combustor includes a combustion chamber and a liner surrounding the combustion chamber. A ridge on top of the liner extends continuously around the liner. In alternate embodiments, a ridge extends continuously around the liner, and a groove extends continuously around the liner adjacent to the ridge, wherein both of the ridge and the groove are either substantially flat or curved.
