  • Publication number: 20180216448
    Abstract: A motor protector includes a housing and a rotatable shaft disposed within the housing and a plurality of radial bearings coupled to the rotatable shaft, for supporting the rotatable shaft against the housing. The motor protector further includes a thrust bearing coupled to the rotatable shaft, for supporting the rotatable shaft against the housing. The motor protector also includes a shaft seal coupled to the rotatable shaft, and configured to seal a first portion from a second portion of the housing. The motor protector also includes an isolation chamber, coupled substantially lateral to the housing and configured to separate a first fluid and a second fluid via the housing.

  • Patent number: 9556809
    Abstract: A method for optimal fueling of an engine is disclosed. The method includes determining a quantity of exhaust residuals in each cylinder among a plurality of cylinders in the engine. Further, the method includes determining at least one of an intake and exhaust manifolds temperature, at least one of an intake and exhaust manifolds pressure, and a quantity of a first fuel being injected to each cylinder, and calculating a characteristic temperature of each cylinder based on the quantity of exhaust residuals, at least one of the intake and exhaust manifolds temperature and pressure, and the quantity of the first fuel. The method further includes determining a substitution rate of the first fuel for each cylinder based on the characteristic temperature, and controlling at least one of the quantity of the first fuel, and a quantity of a second fuel being injected to each cylinder based on the substitution rate.
