Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an impacting T-junction component regulator for regulating components of a non-azeotropic working medium, which is formed by connecting a single T-junction or a plurality of T-junctions. Each of the T-junction comprises an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. When the impacting T-junction component regulator is formed by a plurality of connected T-junctions, the impacting T-junction component regulator further comprises an upper manifold trunk communicated with an outlet pipe of each T-junction and throttle valves located between two adjacent T-junctions. By using the characteristics of unequal vapor and liquid components of the non-azeotropic working medium and mal-distribution of two phase flows by vertical impacting T-junctions, the regulator achieves the fluid flowing through a plurality of T-junctions and throttle valves once so as to achieve the purpose of separating components.

Abstract: The modification of a network message so that a supplemental action is performed in transit at a designated intermediary node. The modification is performed in a manner that is transparent to the source computing entity that caused the network message to be generated. Upon acquiring the network message, a message modification component modifies the network message so that the network message is routed through an intermediary node, and further so that the intermediary node performs supplemental action(s). For instance, the modification might cause routing components to route the network message to the intermediary node, and the modification might also include instructions that the intermediary node interprets as being an instruction to perform the supplemental action.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for routing shipments according to criticality includes accessing an initial solution to an optimization problem of routing multiple shipments to multiple locations using multiple vehicles, the initial solution including multiple loads such that each shipment is routed within exactly one load and a global cost across all loads is minimized, the initial solution being generated independent of the criticality of the shipments. Into each of one or more critical loads in a current solution, one or more non-critical shipments are inserted that are within a neighborhood of the critical load, a critical load being a load containing at least one critical shipment.
