  • Patent number: 11650087
    Abstract: An ultrasonic meter (28) for measuring a flow-rate of a fluid is described. The ultrasonic meter (28) includes a flow conduit (5) for the fluid. The flow conduit (5) extends along a first axis (6) between a first opening (7) and a second opening (8). The ultrasonic meter (28) also includes one or more pairs of ultrasonic transducers (2, 3). Each pair of ultrasonic transducers (2, 3) is configured to define a corresponding beam path (9) intersecting the flow conduit (5) within a measurement region (12) of the flow conduit (5). The measurement region (12) spans between a first position (z1) and a second position (z2) spaced apart along the first axis (6). One or more portions of the measurement region (12) which are outside of any of the one or more beam paths (9) correspond to non-sampled volumes (12b). The ultrasonic meter (28) also includes one or more protrusions (34) extending along the first axis (6).

  • Publication number: 20150286616
    Abstract: A disclosed method generates a document for display in a target application. Copies of the document are retrieved from an electronic clipboard, where the document copies are in multiple formats comprising a native format and a first foreign format. One or more objects from the retrieved document copy in the first foreign format are extracted. The retrieved document copy in the native format and the extracted objects are then merged. The merged document is then displayed in the target application.
