  • Patent number: 11236949
    Abstract: A heat transfer sheet assembly for a rotary regenerative heat exchanger has first and second heat transfer sheet elements stacked one against the other with a first repeat of a first profile on one sheet element opposing a second repeat of a second profile on the other sheet element. The sheet elements are spaced apart by a plurality of wide-gauged parallel sheet spacing features of the first profile repeat RI of the second profile repeat to form a generally close sided elongate channel for gaseous flow therethrough. The second profile of repeat includes an elongate fifth sheet spacing feature in the form of a lobe contacting undulations of the adjacent first profile of repeat.

  • Patent number: 9299152
    Abstract: Systems and methods which provide generation of image depth maps which more accurately represent the local depth discontinuity within images through use of image global depth maps adapted based upon image global motion and/or localized depth analysis utilizing relative relationships of attributes across depth discontinuities in the image are disclosed. Embodiments utilize a full global depth map which is larger than or equal to the image being converted in order to accommodate image global motion, in generating an image global depth map. In operation according to embodiments, an image global depth map is identified within the full global depth map, such as based upon global motion within the image. Localized depth analysis, using pixel attribute relative relationships, is applied with respect to the image global depth map according to embodiments to generate an image depth map which more accurately reflects the local depth discontinuities within the image.
