  • Publication number: 20120262831
    Abstract: A three-phase fault current limiter FCL has three spaced apart input terminals for electrically connecting to respective terminals of a transformer. Three output terminals electrically connect FCL with a load circuit which draws load current ILOAD. FCL includes two longitudinally spaced apart generally circular High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) DC coils which have central generally cylindrical cavities. FCL also includes a longitudinally extending magnetically saturable core which has six like coextensive parallel and elongate posts. Each post includes a first longitudinal portion and, a second longitudinal portion and a third longitudinal portion extending longitudinally oppositely away from the first portion. Each second portion and third portion is received within one of the central cavities. Three copper-based insulated AC coils are each wound about respective first portions for carrying load current ILOAD between input terminals to respective output terminals.

  • Publication number: 20100188280
    Abstract: Location systems and methods are operable to determine a location of an airborne vehicle. An exemplary embodiment identifies at least one object in a pre-captured image stored in an onboard memory and defined by a known location, identifies at least one ground object in a current radar image, correlates the ground object identified in the current radar image with the object identified in the pre-captured image, determines relative location between the installation vehicle and the identified object in the pre-captured image, and determines the location of the installation vehicle based upon the known location of the identified object in the pre-captured image and the determined relative location.

  • Patent number: 5737193
    Abstract: A cabinet is provided for housing a plurality of electrical chassis. Each one of the chassis contains electronic devices and components, such as for example, a magnetic storage disk drive. The cabinet has a plurality of shelves adapted to receive one of the chassis. The shelves are provided by a cage-like structure. More particularly, each shelve has a pair of laterally spaced, electrically conductive wires upon which laterally spaced bottom portions of chassis rests when inserted into the cabinet. Wire struts are mechanically and electrically connected transverse to the laterally spaced shelve wires. A resilient, electrically conductive V-shaped clip is provided. The vertex of the V-shaped clip is shaped to attach to the wire strut with one side of the clip projecting into the bottom portion of the chassis receiving space provided by the shelve, and the other side of the clip projecting into the upper portion of a chassis receiving space provided by a lower shelve.
