  • Patent number: 12475112
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to generating hierarchical queries from text queries. A query generation system is configured to encode a text query to obtain a text embedding. Then, the system may select a field of a data schema by comparing the text embedding to a field embedding corresponding to the field. Subsequently, the system may generate a hierarchical query including a value corresponding to the selected field. Some implementations of the system may further include one or more formatting models configured to format values included in the text query.

  • Patent number: 12140065
    Abstract: A system and method for treating turbine exhaust gas for improved operational flexibility includes a turbine exhaust gas discharge structure, a catalytic turbine exhaust gas treatment device positioned at least partially within the turbine exhaust gas discharge structure, a pump, and at least two heat exchangers. A first heat exchanger is positioned at least partially within the turbine exhaust gas discharge structure to remove heat from turbine exhaust gas by transferring heat to a working fluid. A second heat exchanger removes heat from the working fluid gained at the first heat exchanger. The pump drives the working fluid between the first and second heat exchanger. In a further embodiment, the catalytic turbine exhaust gas treatment device is replaced by a heat recovery steam generator.

  • Patent number: 12031468
    Abstract: A system and method for treating turbine exhaust gas includes an exhaust gas discharge structure, a catalytic exhaust gas treatment device, at least two heat exchangers and a district heating system. The catalytic exhaust gas treatment device is positioned at least partially within the exhaust gas discharge structure. A first heat exchanger is positioned at least partially within the exhaust gas discharge structure and upstream of the catalytic exhaust gas treatment device to remove heat from an exhaust gas by transferring heat to a working fluid. A second heat exchanger is positioned at least partially within the exhaust gas discharge structure downstream of the catalytic exhaust gas treatment device to remove heat from the exhaust gas that has passed though the device by transferring heat to the working fluid. A pump drives the working fluid between the first heat exchanger, the district heating system and the second heat exchanger.

  • Publication number: 20230383478
    Abstract: An interchanging turf assembly for connecting interlocking artificial turf tiles together wherein each tile has a varying layout includes a plurality of tiles. Each tile of the plurality of tiles is interlocking with each other. Each tile of the plurality of tiles has a plurality of sides. Each side of the plurality of sides has a channel wherein the each channel defines a slot space. A connector has a base and the base has a pair of sides. Each side of the pair of sides is coupled to a respective one of a pair of slot inputs. Each of the slot inputs is inserted into the slot space of each channel. A plug is positioned in the center of each of the tiles. The plug is a hole where the hole defines a space for a golf ball to be stored in.

  • Publication number: 20220389870
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for cooling ambient air to be supplied as combustion air to a gas turbine. The system comprises a closed coolant loop direct expansion cooling system including a compressor for compressing a suitable working fluid, an expansion device downstream from the compressor for expanding the working fluid so as to cool a cooling coil. The cooling coil is in heat exchange relation with ambient air flowing to the gas turbine for lowering the temperature of the ambient air to a lower temperature such that combustion air delivered to the gas turbine is below the ambient temperature thereby to increase the efficiency of the gas turbine. A return line is provided for returning the working fluid to the compressor.

  • Patent number: 11288541
    Abstract: This disclosure involves generating, from a user data set, a ranked list of recommended secondary variables in a user interface field similar to primary variable selected in another user interface field. A system receives a data set having variables and corresponding sets of values. The data visualization system determines a feature vector for each variable based on statistics of a corresponding values set. The system generates a variable similarity graph having nodes representing variables and links representing degrees of similarity between feature vectors of variables. The system receives a selection of a first variable via a first field of the user interface, detects a selection of a second field, and identifies a relationship between the first field and the second field. The system generates a contextual menu of recommended secondary variables for use with the selected first variable based on similarity value of the links in the variable similarity graph.
