Abstract: Disclosed is a modular and expandable high intensity rapid heat flux generator and multiplier (150) for generating uniform radiant heat flux upwards of 3 MW/m2 for extended duration up to 300 sec and more, for testing thermal capabilities of a test object (200). The heat flux generator (150) consists of a plurality of heat sources (100) and a control module. Each heat source (100) comprises a housing (15) having a plurality of quartz tubes (20) arranged therein. Each quartz tube (20) accommodating from 2 to 4 heat emitters (30) therein, is provided with a cooling arrangement, wherein a cooling medium (40) from an external reservoir (50) is circulated through the quartz tubes (20) for controlling the surface temperature of the heat emitters (30) for their normal functioning, and for delivering maximum radiant heat flux. The control module controls simultaneous cooling and dynamic flux stabilization either continuously or in pulse.

Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include systems and methods for generating and providing interactive sessions and interactive session captures. For example, upon completion of an interactive session, systems and methods described herein can generate an interactive session playback interface associated with an interactive session capture that includes various interactive features.

Abstract: The disclosure relates, inter alia, to a system comprising: (1) an electric power grid; (2) an electrolyzer generating a first stream of hydrogen in communications link with the electric power grid; (3) hydrogen production means for producing a second stream of hydrogen, said hydrogen production means being a non-electrolyzer in communications link with the electrolyzer; (4) a first conduit leading to a hydrogen user through which hydrogen flows to the hydrogen user; (5) a second conduit connecting the electrolyzer to the first conduit through which hydrogen from the electrolyzer flows to the first conduit at a first location; (6) a third conduit distinct from the second conduit connecting the non-electrolyzer to the first conduit through which hydrogen from the non-electrolyzer flows to the first conduit at a second location distinct from the first location; and (7) means for controlling and maintaining a continuous flow of hydrogen to the hydrogen user.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and system of purifying hydrogen supplied from a storage cavern, particularly to removing methane and other hydrocarbons from the hydrogen withdrawn from the cavern by using selective adsorption. The adsorbed impurities can be removed from the adsorbent by increasing the temperature, reducing the pressure, or a combination of both.

Abstract: A top-fired reformer box is provided. The top-fired reformer box includes a burner row, a tube row, a reformer tunnel including a closed end, an open end, and a plurality of tunnel ports formed along a side wall of the reformer tunnel, the plurality of tunnel ports including a one or more tunnel port located along the side of the tunnel, and a flow resistor positioned at least one tunnel port applying a flow resistance for flue gas entering the reformer tunnel via the at least one tunnel port such that uniform flow is achieved within the reformer tunnel.

Abstract: Organic sulfur compounds contained in refinery off gas streams having either high or low concentrations of olefins are converted to hydrogen sulfides which can be then be removed using conventional amine treating systems. The process uses a catalytic reactor with or without a hydrotreater depending on the olefin concentration of the off gas stream. The catalytic reactor operates in a hydrogenation mode or an oxidation mode to convert a majority of organic sulfur compounds into hydrogen sulfides.

Abstract: A system obtains patient data, de-identifies each patient with a unique patient key (UPK) and joins the patient data without linking to personal identities of the patients. The system further receives a search query from a user device, identifies a group of UPKs associated with patient data that satisfies criteria of the search query based on values for associated healthcare attributes, and clusters the group of UPKs with respect to healthcare events. The system then ranks the healthcare events of the clusters and sends a query result including healthcare data that is generated based on the ranking, where the query result conceals any personal identity of any of the patients.
