  • Patent number: 10788044
    Abstract: Circuits for controlling an impeller in a fluid flow distribution system to achieve a target fluid flow are disclosed. The circuit to output a signal representative of a speed value (NT) of the impeller derived from a stored power consumption value (Wi) and speed value (Ni) pairs to achieve the target fluid flow. The circuit to receive a power signal representative of an input power consumption value (W) of the impeller at the speed value (NT) to input fluid to the fluid flow distribution system and to compare the value (W) represented by a power signal for the speed value (NT) with the stored value (Wi) and impeller speed value (Ni) pairs to determine a least difference impeller speed value (NL) of the stored pair comprising a least difference between the value (W) and the value (Wi). The circuit to output a speed signal representative of value (NL).

  • Patent number: 10790663
    Abstract: Systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses for configuring load shed controllers are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is a method comprising providing a graphic user interface on a computer display; providing first, second, third, and fourth graphic resources on said graphic user interface; checking whether said load shedding controller meets minimum operating requirements to operate; if said load shedding controller meets said minimum operating requirements, transmitting configuration information including at least first and second configuration values to said load shedding controller; and controlling, with the load shedding controller, the one or more of the electric loads based on the first and second configuration values. The third graphic resources assist a user in providing first configuration values to configure grid operating parameters. The fourth graphic resources assist a user in providing second configuration values to configure load operating parameters.

  • Patent number: 10525739
    Abstract: In certain examples, a printing device comprises a print head, a dryer, a heat exchanger, a distribution system and a controller. The heat exchanger is coupled to an exhaust of the dryer to produce pre-heated air. The distribution system is coupled to the heat exchanger and a plurality of regions of the printing device. The controller causes the distribution system to distribute the pre-heated air from the heat exchanger among the plurality of regions based on an operating parameter of the printing device.
