Patent number: 12115479Abstract: An annular water removal system (AWRS) for an air cycle environmental control system (ECS) includes a line replaceable unit (LRU) configured to output air flow, and a water collector coupled to the LRU. The water collector includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion includes a coalescing unit having a collector inlet to receive the air flow and configured to coalesce moisture from the air flow output from the LRU. The lower portion includes a collection unit in fluid communication with the coalescing unit. The collection unit is configured to collect the moisture coalesced by the coalescing unit.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2023Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Assignee: HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATIONInventors: Donald E. Army, Abbas A. Alahyari, Anthony DeLugan, Ephraim Joseph, Michael Maynard, Seth E. Rosen, John H. Whiton, Sebastian Zuraw, David Saltzman, Christopher Testa

Patent number: 11802736Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a header and an annular core fluidly connected to the header. The annular core includes an inner diameter, an outer diameter, first flow channels arranged in a first set of layers, and second flow channels arranged in a second set of layers and interleaved with the first flow channels. Each of the first flow channels includes a first inlet, a first outlet, and a first axial region extending between the first inlet and the first outlet. Each of the second flow channels includes a second inlet, a second outlet, and a second axial region extending between the second inlet and the second outlet.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2021Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Hamilton Sundstrand CorporationInventors: Michael Maynard, Donald E.

Patent number: 8484194Abstract: A training set generator may be configured to input a taxonomy including a hierarchy of categories and a plurality of top-level sites, and to output a training set of categorized data. The training set generator may include a crawler configured to crawl each of the top-level sites to determine at least one lower-level site associated therewith and to store the top-level sites and associated lower-level sites as crawl data. The training set generator also may include an extractor configured to determine, for each of the top-level sites, a corresponding site-specific extraction template associating at least one portion of the corresponding top-level site with at least one category of the hierarchy of categories, and further configured to apply each site-specific extraction template to corresponding crawl data to thereby associate the crawl data with the categories of the hierarchical categories and obtain categorized data of the training set.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2012Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Philo Juang, Christopher Testa, Nicolaus Mote
