  • Publication number: 20230262848
    Abstract: The present technology is generally directed to multi-frequency controllers for inductive heating and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, systems associated with the present technology are configured to precisely heat a module via a coil to a target temperature using oscillating, pulsed electrical signals associated with unique frequencies and/or capacitance values. Each unique frequency can correspond to heating the module to a particular depth, relative to an outer surface of the module. For example, a first pulsed electrical signal having a first frequency can heat the module to a first depth, and a second pulsed electrical signal having a second frequency can heat the module to a second depth different than the first depth. The system can further include a thermal sensor for measuring a temperature associated with at least one of the module or a fluid associated with the module.

  • Patent number: 11596851
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a training area in the form of an enclosed space in which light levels can be controlled, at least one physical element related to a task for which an individual is to be trained, and a lighting arrangement. The lighting arrangement generates a background luminance level in the training area sufficient to cause the vision system of the individual to function in the mesopic or low photopic range of vision, and the physical elements are themselves illuminated by an illumination means. The luminance level of the physical elements is greater than the background luminance level.

  • Patent number: 11060246
    Abstract: A baghouse apparatus for removing particulates from a 100% recycled asphalt pavement dryer exhaust air stream includes a drop out zone section having a water spray operable to initially drench an incoming air exhaust stream with water droplets while increasing air stream velocity, then slow the air stream velocity to cause drop out of particulates >1000 ?m from the slowed waste air stream, and collect the particulates dropped out of the waste air exhaust stream. The apparatus also includes a cyclonic scrubber section for further cooling the waste air exhaust stream while subjected the stream to a further water spray to condense aerosol vapor into droplets, a prefilter filtration section operable to collect and remove condensed aerosol droplets from the waste air stream; and a coalescing filtration section operable to remove 99% of remaining particulates from the waste air stream before discharge of the air stream to atmosphere.
