  • Publication number: 20220098995
    Abstract: A rotational position of a variable-vane of a variable-vane turbine nozzle upstream of a turbine of a gas-turbine engine is biased towards a corresponding rotational position that will mitigate against an overspeed condition of the turbine during operation of the gas-turbine engine. When the turbine is operating at a rotational speed that is less than an overspeed threshold, the rotational position of the variable-vane is controlled independently of the biasing using a variable-vane actuator operatively coupled to the variable-vane. Responsive to a rotational speed of the turbine in excess of the overspeed threshold, the variable-vane actuator is operatively decoupled from the variable-vane so as to provide for the variable-vane to be repositioned towards the corresponding rotational position that will mitigate against the overspeed condition.

  • Publication number: 20210310412
    Abstract: A powerplant and a generator of an external auxiliary power unit (APU) are located within a nacelle that is mountable to a hardpoint of an aircraft via an associated a hardpoint attachment interface that provides for releasably coupling the external APU thereto, and provides for coupling a fuel supply of the aircraft to run the powerplant, and coupling electrical power from the external APU either to, or external of, the aircraft. The external auxiliary power unit (APU) incorporates a particulate filter in series with the inlet air flow to the powerplant.

  • Patent number: 10616373
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, systems, methods, apparatus, computer program code and means may receive data streams from remote third-party administrator computer servers. A back-end application computer server may receive a set of requests from a first third-party administrator computer server, each request being associated with a request value. The back-end application server may retrieve a first set of pre-determined rules and automatically apply them to the set of requests, resulting in an adjusted request value and an overall value. The back-end computer server may then automatically transmit a settlement instruction, including the overall value, to an electronic transaction system, and render a transaction activity report display via a remote computer device, associated with the first third-party administrator computer server, including information about the set of requests, the adjusted request value along with an indication of a reason for the adjustment, and the overall value.

  • Publication number: 20140046725
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a data acquisition processor may receive a customer feedback response to a loyalty survey, the customer feedback being received after a notice of an interaction associated with an insurance entity and a customer is received. A loyalty rating may be determined for the customer based on the received customer feedback response. Based on the loyalty rating, information associated with the customer may be automatically transmitted to a party other than the insurance entity. The party other than the insurance entity might be associated with, by way of examples only, a third party administrator, an insurance sales agent, or a sales partner of the insurance entity.
