  • Patent number: 12584495
    Abstract: Multistage centrifugal pumping systems include a plurality of pump stages contained within a pump housing. Each stage typically includes a stationary diffuser and a rotatable impeller. Each of the diffusers includes a projection and a receiver that cooperate with the corresponding projection and receiver on adjacent diffusers to form a nested relationship between the diffusers that prevents the diffusers from rotating inside the pump housing. The projections have a projection outer surface with a non-circular shape. The receivers include a receiver inner surface with a complementary non-circular shape. The engagement between the non-circular projection outer surface and the non-circular receiver inner surface locks the adjacent receivers in fixed rotational alignment.

  • Patent number: 12503933
    Abstract: A pumping system deployed in a wellbore is designed for producing two-phase fluids through production tubing to a wellhead, while protecting downhole tubulars and equipment from corrosive gases from the wellbore. The pumping system includes a pump, a gas separator upstream from the pump, a packer above the pump, and a gas evacuation module between the pump and the packer. The packer blocks the movement of gases through the annular space and forms a gas collection space between the packer and the pump. The gas evacuation module is configured to remove gas from the gas collection space and mix the gas with liquid-dominant fluids received from the pump. The gas separator includes an intake configured to receive the two-phase fluids, a gas discharge configured to eject gas-dominant fluids into the annular space, and a liquid discharge configured to provide the pump with liquid-dominant fluids.

  • Publication number: 20230153493
    Abstract: There are disclosed systems for creating patterns on garments including a memory storing an executable logic, a processor executing the executable logic to receive a non-computer-generated input, receive a non-computer-generated garment design information, learn a relationship between the designer input and the non-computer-generated garment design information, generate a garment wear pattern based on the design model and a designer input, determine, using the design model, that the generated garment wear pattern is one of a computer-generated wear pattern and a non-computer-generated wear pattern, adjust a network weight of a relationship between the non-computer-generated input and the based on the non-computer-generated garment design information to produce a more realistic wear pattern, receive a designer input, generate a garment wear pattern based on the design model and the designer input, and transmit the generated garment wear pattern for application to a garment.
