Publication number: 20240011707Abstract: Embodiments provide a method for preventing shutdowns in LNG facilities by removing heavy hydrocarbons from the inlet gas supply. According to an embodiment, there is provided an LNG facility treating pipeline quality natural gas that is contaminated with lubrication oil and low concentrations of heavy hydrocarbons. Due to contamination, the behavior of the pipeline quality natural gas is not properly predicted by thermodynamic modeling. In an embodiment, heavy hydrocarbons are removed by a drain system in a heat exchanger. In an embodiment, heavy hydrocarbons are removed by a treatment bed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Applicant: Cheniere Energy, Inc.Inventors: Hamish David William HORNE, Scott OLIVER, Timothy King JORDAN, Matthew Peter HENDERSON

Patent number: 9024556Abstract: In an electrical machine which has time-varying or position-varying disturbances in its output, signals representing the position and values of machine-related parameters are used to solve a model of the machine to calculate the phase currents which are required to minimize the disturbances. The model is able to provide solutions in the presence of limitations of some of the operating conditions of the machine, for example the supply voltage or the error in the signal representing the position.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2012Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignee: Nidec SR Drives, Ltd.Inventors: Michael Ian Peter Henderson, Joseph Gerald Marcinkiewicz
