  • Publication number: 20240133613
    Abstract: A refrigeration unit includes a cabinet and a first evaporator assembly. The first evaporator assembly is operable between an uninstalled condition and an installed condition. In the uninstalled condition, the first evaporator assembly is not assembled with the cabinet. In the installed condition, the first evaporator assembly is assembled with the cabinet. The first evaporator assembly includes a first evaporator, a first suction line connected to the first evaporator at a first suction line joint, and a first capillary tube connected to the first evaporator at a first capillary tube joint. The first suction line joint and the first capillary tube joint of the first evaporator assembly are leak testable in the uninstalled condition of the first evaporator assembly.

  • Patent number: 10235180
    Abstract: A scheduler implementing a dependency matrix having restricted entries is disclosed. A processing device of the disclosure includes a decode unit to decode an instruction and a scheduler communicably coupled to the decode unit. In one embodiment, the scheduler is configured to receive the decoded instruction, determine that the decoded instruction qualifies for allocation as a restricted reservation station (RS) entry type in a dependency matrix maintained by the scheduler, identify RS entries in the dependency matrix that are free for allocation, allocate one of the identified free RS entries with information of the decoded instruction in the dependency matrix, and update a row of the dependency matrix corresponding to the claimed RS entry with source dependency information of the decoded instruction.

  • Patent number: 8904798
    Abstract: A combustor includes a cap assembly that extends radially across at least a portion of the combustor, wherein the cap assembly includes an upstream surface axially separated from a downstream surface, and a combustion chamber downstream from the cap assembly. A plurality of tubes extend from the upstream surface through the downstream surface of the cap assembly, and each tube provides fluid communication through the cap assembly to the combustion chamber. The downstream surface is sloped at an angle with respect to the upstream surface.
