  • Patent number: 11960336
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to methods of increasing a temperature of a computer module to start the computer at environmental temperatures below a threshold temperature. An example embodiment includes receiving, at one or more computing components thermally coupled to a main computer via a liquid-cooled plate, a set of program instructions. The method can also include running the set of program instructions on at least one computing component. Running the set of program instructions on the computing component can generate heat that flows to the main computer via the liquid-cooled plate. The method can additionally include detecting, from at least one thermal sensor coupled to the liquid-cooled plate, a temperature reading indicative of a temperature of the main computer. The method can further include determining that the temperature reading has reached a predetermined temperature threshold and based on the temperature reading reaching the predetermined temperature threshold, powering on the main computer.

  • Patent number: 11933931
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining a plurality of master sensor responses with a master sensor in a set of training fluids and obtaining node sensor responses in the set of training fluids. A linear correlation between a compensated master data set and a node data set is then found for a set of training fluids and generating node sensor responses in a tool parameter space from the compensated master data set on a set of application fluids. A reverse transformation is obtained based on the node sensor responses in a complete set of calibration fluids. The reverse transformation converts each node sensor response from a tool parameter space to the synthetic parameter space and uses transformed data as inputs of various fluid predictive models to obtain fluid characteristics. The method includes modifying operation parameters of a drilling or a well testing and sampling system according to the fluid characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20230288655
    Abstract: A fiber optic telecommunications device includes a frame and a fiber optic module including a rack mount portion, a center portion, and a main housing portion. The rack mount portion is stationarily coupled to the frame, the center portion is slidably coupled to the rack mount portion along a sliding direction, and the main housing portion is slidably coupled to the center portion along the sliding direction. The main housing portion of the fiber optic module includes fiber optic connection locations for connecting cables to be routed through the frame. The center portion of the fiber optic module includes a radius limiter for guiding cables between the main housing portion and the frame, the center portion also including a latch for unlatching the center portion for slidable movement. Slidable movement of the center portion with respect to the rack mount portion moves the main housing portion with respect to the frame along the sliding direction.
