  • Patent number: 11105544
    Abstract: A refrigerant circuit is disclosed. The refrigerant circuit includes a compressor, a condenser, a first expansion device, an economizer, a second expansion device, and an evaporator fluidly connected. A working fluid flows through the refrigerant circuit. A bypass segment is fluidly connected to the refrigerant circuit. A portion of the working fluid is provided from the refrigerant circuit to the bypass segment from a location in the refrigerant circuit disposed between the condenser and the evaporator with respect to flow of the working fluid. The portion of the working fluid flows through the bypass segment in a flow enabled state and is provided to a location in the refrigerant circuit disposed between the economizer and the evaporator with respect to flow of the working fluid. A vortical flow is induced at the location in the refrigerant circuit disposed between the economizer and the evaporator.

  • Patent number: 11074255
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are various systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a system independent Configuration Management Database identification system. In an implementation, a dynamic identification system correlates records of an originating system with records of an Authoritative Configuration Management Database (CMDB) including a set of one or more identifying rules that define a minimum amount of information in order to generate an identifying signature that serves as a common reference between a record of the originating system with a matching Configuration Item (CI) record of the ACMDB, receiving, from the originating system, information to generate an identifying signature, determining that the generated first identifying signature matches a stored identifying signature, and correlating the first record of the originating system corresponding with the generated first identifying signature with the one of the CI records of the ACMDB corresponding with the matching one of the identifying signatures.

  • Patent number: 9965810
    Abstract: Automatically mapping and importing accounting application data into to a tax preparation application. Account data including an account name is received from an accounting application. A tax category corresponding to the account name is determined automatically, and a tax line assignment or line of a form of the tax preparation application is automatically assigned to the account name such that the corresponding account data can be mapped to and imported into the appropriate section of a tax return. For this purpose, a table or spreadsheet of search terms may be used to correlate an account name selected by a user to a tax category, which is used to determine the appropriate tax line assignment or line of a tax form for that particular account.
