  • Patent number: 11402438
    Abstract: Disclosed is an intelligent on-line diagnosis method for winding deformation of power transformer. When a transformer is subjected to short-circuit shock or transportation collision, transformer windings may undergo local twisting, swelling or the like under the action of an electric power or mechanical force, which is called winding deformation and will cause a huge hidden danger to the safe operation of the power network. Commonly used diagnosis methods for winding deformation are all off-line diagnosis methods, which have the disadvantages that transformers need to be shut down and highly skilled operators are required. The present invention provide an intelligent on-line diagnosis method for winding deformation on the basis of combination of information entropy and support vector machine.

  • Patent number: 8939724
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for harvesting wind energy from air exhausted by other systems. Ventilation and heat exchange systems force air movement using fans. Exhaust airflow may also be the result of a combustion system. The exhaust air is generally wasted as it is diffused back to the atmosphere. Significant energy may be recovered from this exhaust air using relatively small turbines inserted into the airflow. Careful positioning of the turbine maximizes the recovery efficiency.
