Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to a high temperature lubricant for use in a preheated welding wire system. The lubricant may comprise one or more high melting point materials in a concentration from 0.5 to 30 wt % by weight of the lubricant. The high melting point materials may comprise graphite, molybdenum disulfide, tungsten disulfide, or boron nitride. The lubricant is configured to remain on a welding wire electrode that has been coated with the lubricant without melting when a preheater heats the welding wire electrode to an elevated temperature (e.g., between 500 and 900 degrees Celsius). The lubricant may be a powder or a liquid. When the lubricant is a liquid, it may further comprise a solvent such as 2-proponal or water.

Abstract: To eliminate the adverse effects of power swings in a large scale computing system during the life cycle of an application or job, control of several operating characteristics for the collective group of processors is provided. By providing certain levels of coordination for the many processors utilized in large scale computing systems, significant and abrupt changes in power needs can be avoided. In certain circumstances, this may involve limiting the transition between several C-States of the processors involved and the overall power transitions for a large scale system are not detrimental and do not create issues for the data center or local power utility. Some cases will require stepped transitions between C-States, while other cases will include both stepped and modulated transitions. Other cases will incorporate random wait times at the various transitions in order to spread the power consumption involved.
