  • Patent number: 8332343
    Abstract: In accordance with one aspect of the present exemplary embodiment, a system determines a solution based on received data. An intake component receives an incomplete data set from one or more sources. A recommendation system transforms the incomplete data set into a semantic data set via latent semantic indexing, classifies the semantic data set into an existing cluster and provides one or more solutions of the existing cluster as one or more recommendations.

  • Publication number: 20120152493
    Abstract: A heat exchanger structure with flow divider includes a heat-conductive main body provided with a flow passage having at least one inner turn and one outer turn, and at least one flow divider located near and downstream the inner turn, such that a cooling liquid in the flow passage flowing through the inner and the outer turn to reach at the flow divider is divided by the flow divider into two smaller flows. Therefore, the cooling liquid in the flow passage has reduced pressure drop and it is not necessary to increase the operating power of a pump that delivers the cooling liquid into the flow passage.

  • Publication number: 20120152500
    Abstract: A flow passage structure for water-cooling device includes a heat-conductive main body provided with at least one flow passage, an inlet, and an outlet; and at least one vortex-forming section. The flow passage is provided in the heat-conductive main body and has a type of cooling liquid contained therein. The flow passage includes a channel portion and a top portion integrally connected to one another to ensure a leak-free flow passage. The at least one vortex-forming section is provided on one of the channel portion and the top portion for the cooling liquid flowing therethrough to form separated vortexes, so as to enable largely increased flow field turbulence in the flow passage and accordingly upgraded heat transfer performance of the cooling liquid.
