  • Publication number: 20230143080
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method comprising obtaining, by a processing system including a processor, device design information for a device depicted in media content; obtaining a first image for inclusion in a depiction of the device; and obtaining display information regarding an apparent size and orientation of a display of the depicted device. The processing system adjusts the first image in accordance with the device design information and the display information and inserts the adjusted first image into the media content, thereby generating a second image comprising the display of the depicted device with the adjusted first image shown on the display. The method also includes altering the adjusted first image in accordance with changes in the apparent size or orientation of the display of the depicted device and delivering the second image to a user device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20070217904
    Abstract: It is known there is ingestion of hot gas flow 35 from an annular flow 36 in gas turbine engines. This flow 35 is prevented from attaching to the disc by coolant flow 32 passing through gaps in lock plates 28, 29 by creation of a barrier layer. In order to regulate and enhance this effect spacer protrusions 31 are provided between ends of lock plates 28, 29. In such circumstances the gap 30 is controlled and therefore the rate of leakage flow 32 regulated for best cooling effect. This cooling effect and cooling flow 32 can be further enhanced by providing chutes 39 for presentation of the coolant flow 32.

  • Publication number: 20060188377
    Abstract: In gas turbine engines it is found that leaked coolant flow through the lock plates 28, 29, 50, 60 can be used to insulate the rotor surfaces 33, 34 from the effects of hot gas ingestion. In order to enhance this effect chutes 39, 59, 69 are provided to guide the leakage airflow adjacent to the lock plate such that the ingested hot gas flow is prevented from coming into contact with the surfaces of the lock plate and other cavity surfaces 33, 34 to improve cooling effect. The chutes 39, 59, 69 create apertures 40, 53 which can be of dimensions to ensure that there is a high ratio between width and depth of the coolant flow 32 again facilitating heat exchange and cooling efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20050045241
    Abstract: A pigtailing machine includes a B forming head and a support pedestal secured to a cassette base. The cassette base is located upon a base which mounts the A forming head to provide for a relatively quick changeover should another double pigtail coil spring need be manufactured. By fixing the forming head and the support pedestal to the cassette base alignment and proper manufacture of the spring is assured. Alternatively, the A forming head is also mounted to the cassette base.
