Abstract: A recirculation system for a gas turbine engine includes a mixing chamber including an inlet end that receives exhaust gases containing unburnt fuel and an outlet end, and at least one recirculation conduit including an inlet opening in fluid communication with the mixing chamber proximate to the outlet end and an outlet opening in fluid communication with the mixing chamber proximate to the inlet end. The recirculation system further includes a fan. The fan is operable to receive at least one of a stream of substantially fuel-free exhaust gases present and a stream of fresh air within the at least one recirculation conduit and direct at least one of a portion of the stream of substantially fuel-free exhaust gases and a portion of the stream of fresh air into the mixing chamber to reduce an amount of unburnt fuel in the exhaust gases.

Abstract: An apparatus. The apparatus includes a source of radio-frequency energy and a first transformer coil coupled to the source of RF energy. A second transformer coil, the second transformer coil electromagnetically coupled to the first transformer coil. A modulator is coupled to the source of radio frequency energy, wherein the modulator is configured to receive a modulating signal comprising a pseudorandom bit sequence.

Abstract: The invention relates to a printed article and a feedstock for printing comprising a matrix forming material, in particular a polymeric material, and a filler material dispersed within the matrix forming material, in which the filler material comprises glass flakes. Glass flakes are characterized as having an aspect ratio of average diameter divided by average thickness greater than or equal to three. Selecting aspect ratio of glass flakes controls an orientation of glass flakes angled relative to a printed layer and formation of a depletion layer in a printed article. Technical effects of angled flakes include better adhesion between successive printed layers in 3D printing and a crack-stopping function. In a preferred embodiment the glass flakes comprise a conductive coating such that a printed article functions as a moisture sensor. Technical effects of a depletion layer include high moisture permeability and so a fast rate of change in electrical resistance due to moisture.

Abstract: A poly-phase electric energy meter comprises a front-end that converts analog current input signals and analog voltage input signals to digital current and voltage samples and a micro-controller for computing power consumed. The front end includes first and second input channels. Each input channel has a multiplexer, an analog-digital converter, a de-multiplexer and a set of data registers. The first input channel receives current input and the second input channel receives voltage inputs. A multiplexer control causes the first and second channels to sequentially sample the current and voltage for one phase at a time and store digital data in corresponding data registers. The micro-controller computes energy consumed from the simultaneous current and voltage samples.
