Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for applying scale inhibitor to completion fluids during injectivity test operations. Said method takes advantage of the completion fluid to inhibit scaling in the reservoir by filling the porous spaces of the reservoir rock with the inhibited completion fluid. When the well is put into production, this inhibited fluid positioned inside the reservoir will be produced together with the oil and will inhibit the formation of scale inside the reservoir and on production equipment.

Abstract: A gas cooking appliance includes a valve and a first pipe configured to transport gas to the valve. The appliance also includes a burner and a second pipe configured to transport gas from the valve to the burner. The appliance further includes a console and a knob. The console includes a cutout having an edge defining a shape of the cutout, and the knob includes a handle and a bezel. The knob is configured to control a state of the valve. The bezel has a rear face and a protrusion extending rearward from the rear face through the cutout, the protrusion contacting the edge of the cutout. The appliance additionally includes a bracket coupling the knob to the valve. The bracket includes a leg mating with the protrusion.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for determining clusters of operations in a data processing pipeline. By clustering the operations according to the operations' programming languages using the algorithm disclosed herein, performance efficiency gains can be achieved. The algorithm is iterative, traversing all operations in a data processing pipeline with subsequent iterations addressing the clustering regime determined by prior iterations.

Abstract: Methods are provided by which a treatment fluid (e.g., a liquid corrosion inhibitor) may be applied onto the interior surfaces of an aircraft fuselage. The methods include (a) deploying an automated guided vehicle (AGV) comprising a carriage assembly and a robotic spray system carried by the carriage assembly within the interior of the fuselage, (b) closing the cabin door opening of the fuselage with the AGV positioned therewithin, and (c) operating the AGV so as to move within the fuselage along a longitudinal axis thereof to spray the treatment fluid onto the surfaces thereof.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided by which a treatment fluid (e.g., a liquid corrosion inhibitor) may be applied onto the interior surfaces of an aircraft fuselage which employ an automated guided vehicle (AGV) comprising a carriage assembly and a robotic spray system carried by the carriage assembly supported by a support platform positioned laterally of an aircraft fuselage in alignment with the cabin door opening thereof. The AGV may thus be deployable through the cabin door opening of the fuselage to a deployed position within the interior of the fuselage so as to be moveable along a longitudinal axis of the fuselage to allow the robotic spray assembly to spray the treatment fluid onto interior surfaces of the fuselage. A sealing door assembly located rearwardly of the AGV which is moveable relative to a door opening in the fuselage may also be provided so as to sealingly close the door opening of the fuselage when the AGV is deployed within the interior of the fuselage.

Abstract: The invention refers to an autonomous system and to a method that allows the active thermal control of garments using solar cells as the power source. In the simplest configuration, the system includes a piece of clothing with solar cells (1), a thermal module able to generate heat and cold (3, 4, and 5), and a unit for controlling and monitoring the internal environment (6). In order to increase versatility and to optimize operation conditions, the system includes batteries (2) that can be charged by the solar cells or externally, increasing energy autonomy and improving performance in low radiation conditions. Proper distribution of electric resistors (3) and refrigeration pipes (7) allow a fine-tuning regulation of temperature inside the garment. The garment is developed not only for standard conditions but also for extreme heast and cold environments, being optimised wither for standard solar radiation or other relevant spectral source.
