Abstract: Butterfly valves assemblies are provided that include a flowbody, a butterfly plate, an actuator and an upper chimney and a lower chimney disposed within the flowbody. The flowbody has an inner surface defining a channel. The butterfly plate is disposed in the channel, is rotationally mounted to the flowbody, and has an outer periphery. The actuator has an actuator output shaft that is coupled to the valve shaft via a serrated spline coupling. The upper chimney and the lower chimney are configured to include bearing assemblies that constrain radial loads and thrust loads exerted upon the valve shaft and minimize misalignment of the serrated spline coupling.

Abstract: A number of surge protection device disconnector designs provide protection to a load over a full range of fault currents provide adequate surge protection as well. The designs quench arcs that may tend to occur as a result of MOV faults, thereby protecting the surrounding components.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically reallocating resources among partitions based on factors including relative resource pain rates and user assigned priority. A tuner executes several tasks, including determining relative memory pain rates for partitions and allocating memory among partitions so that future relative memory pain rates obtained after the allocation will be more evenly distributed among the partitions than current relative memory pain rates are distributed. Also, the tuner determines current relative processor and interactive pain rates for partitions and allocates processor and interactive power among these partitions so that future relative processor and interactive pain rates obtained after the allocation will be more evenly distributed among the partitions than current relative processor and interactive pain rates are distributed.
