Abstract: A process for applying a fluorescent leak detection dye to a component of an air conditioning system. The process involves the steps of (i) providing a fluorescent dye that is solid at room temperature, (ii) exposing the dye to an elevated temperature to melt the dye into a liquid or flowable state, (iii) injecting, channeling, spraying or placing the flowable dye into or on a component or an HVAC or A/C system, (iv) allowing the dye to resolidify in or on the component, (v) attaching the component to the HVAC or A/C system, and (iv) dissolving the resolidified dye in a liquid/gas.

Abstract: A system for controlling equipment at a wellsite includes a surface PLC, a first subsea PLC, a second subsea PLC, a first CAN module, a second CAN module, and a CAN network. The surface PLC is configured to receive a parameter that is measured by a sensor and to transmit a first signal to the first subsea PLC, the second subsea PLC, or both in response to the parameter. The first subsea PLC or the second subsea PLC, or both are configured to transmit a second signal to the first CAN module, the second CAN module, or both in response to the first signal. The first CAN module, the second CAN module, or both are configured to transmit a third signal to the CAN network in response to the second signal. The CAN network is configured to control the equipment in response to the third signal.

Abstract: A workflow has been developed that enables initially mapping of a focused ultrasound (FUS) beam using magnetic resonance (MR) thermometry or MR-acoustic radiation force imaging (MR-ARFI) while working within the MRI device. During this procedure, key measurements will be taken including the precise location of the transducer relative to the skull and the transducer parameters (such as amplitudes and phases) required to place the ultrasound focus at the desired focal size and location in the skull. The anatomical measurements will be used to build a patient-specific, device-specific stereotactic frame to hold the transducer in the position relative to the skull and the aberration corrects will be applied. FUS therapy can then be delivered to the patient outside of the MR environment.
