Abstract: Aspects for managing communication of cellular devices in a secured facility are disclosed. In one such aspect, a method may include: receiving a cellular device in a box configured to provide an electronically isolated environment; transmitting cellular network signals configured to emulate a base station of a telecommunication carrier; in response to the cellular device attempting to gain access to the network, obtaining device information from the cellular device placed in the box via the one or more cellular network signal; based on determining that the obtained device information matches stored identification information from an authorized devices database, registering the cellular device as an authorized device in a log; deploying a network configured to regulate wireless transmissions from or to the secured facility; and regulating wireless transmissions to or from the secured facility based on determining whether the wireless transmission comprises identifying data corresponding to the log.

Abstract: Aspects for verifying an identification of a cellular device are disclosed. In one such aspect, a method for managing cellular devices may include: receiving a cellular device in an RF containment space configured to provide an electronically isolated environment by blocking electromagnetic waves or radio frequency (RF) wave; providing, on a display, a graphical user interface (GUI); transmitting one or more cellular network signals configured to emulate at least one base station of a telecommunication carrier to cause the cellular device to initiate connecting to a network set up by a virtual base station coupled to the RF containment space; in response to the cellular device attempting to gain access to the network, obtaining device information from the cellular device placed in the RF containment space via the one or more cellular network signal; and extracting and storing identification information from the device information in the log.

Abstract: A combustor liner for a gas turbine includes a body having a plurality of angled strips on an outside surface of the combustor liner. The plurality of angled strips are arranged in an array about the outside surface. A space is disposed between each of said plurality of angled strips so as to create vortices in a cooling air flowing in a longitudinal direction across said outside surface of said combustor liner. A method of fabricating a combustor liner includes forming a plurality of angled strips on an outside surface of the combustor liner and arranged in an array about the outside surface, each of the angled strips is disposed so as to be spaced apart to create vortices in a cooling air flowing across the outside surface of the combustor liner.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for cooling a combustor liner and transitions piece of a gas turbine include a combustor liner with a plurality of turbulators arranged in an array axially along a length defining a length of the combustor liner and located on an outer surface thereof; a first flow sleeve surrounding the combustor liner with a first flow annulus therebetween, the first flow sleeve having a plurality of rows of cooling holes formed about a circumference of the first flow sleeve for directing cooling air from the compressor discharge into the first flow annulus; a transition piece connected to the combustor liner and adapted to carry hot combustion gases to a stage of the turbine; a second flow sleeve surrounding the transition piece a second plurality of rows of cooling apertures for directing cooling air into a second flow annulus between the second flow sleeve and the transition piece; wherein the first plurality of cooling holes and second plurality of cooling apertures are each configured with an eff

Abstract: A component includes at least one wall having an inner portion and an outer portion. A number of pins extend between the inner and outer portions of the wall. The pins define a mesh cooling arrangement having a number of flow channels. A number of turbulators are disposed on at least one of the inner and outer portions of the wall.
