Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of the present invention indexes components of a systematization of technical data. An author, a publisher, and a renderer are defined. The author, the publisher, and the renderer are relatedly configured in the technical data system so that the author represents a first stage, the publisher represents a second stage, and the renderer represents a third stage. The author creates and outputs author data, which is input into and implemented by the publisher. The publisher creates and outputs publisher data, which is input into and implemented by the renderer. The renderer creates and outputs renderer data, which is input into and implemented by a user. Respective levels of data are determined at the three stages. A first-stage level of data corresponds to the author data. A second-stage level of data corresponds to the publisher data. A third-stage level of data corresponds to the renderer data.

Abstract: Provided is a method for controlling the operation of a cooking appliance, such as an oven range. The cooking appliance includes a door with multiple spaced apart glass panels. The method uses an interlocking mechanism that interferes with the installation of at least one of the plurality of glass panels in the door if at least one of the glass panels is not installed properly. The method further uses a switch with a plunger can be installed in the door, which allows the appliance to operate only when a failsafe electrical circuit is closed corresponding to a selected position of the plunger when the door is closed. The plunger is prevented from retaining that selected position if at least one of the glass panels is improperly installed or if a top cap is not properly seated or installed above the glass panels.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to unique soluble pea protein product can be used alone to make aerated bakery products, confections, desserts, sauces, and beverages. The soluble pea protein product can be combined with insoluble pea protein product to make a range of food products with higher protein content than when insoluble, globular pea protein product is used alone, due to the viscosity reducing nature of the soluble pea protein product when it is combined with insoluble globular pea protein product. The soluble pea protein products when combined with insoluble pea protein products, make a resulting pea protein product that has a PDCAAS of about 0.75-1.00. The process to make this unique soluble pea protein includes means of selectively separating the soluble pea protein product from the insoluble fractions of ground peas, as well as selectively separating the soluble pea protein from soluble carbohydrates and ash.

Abstract: Data center mechanical infrastructure is incrementally deployed and commissioned to support incremental changes in computing capacity in a data center while mitigating interaction between infrastructure being commissioned and installed computer systems. Incremental mechanical infrastructure commissioning can be concurrent with incremental electrical infrastructure commissioning and includes operating mechanical infrastructure to remove heat generated as a result of operating electrical infrastructure to support simulated electrical loads as part of electrical infrastructure commissioning. Incremental mechanical infrastructure deployment can be based on the power support capacity provided by incrementally deployed electrical infrastructure.

Abstract: Fire suppression systems and methods of suppressing fires are disclosed. The methods may include detecting an increase in temperature that corresponds to presence of a fire, and discharging fire suppressing fluid from at least one fire suppressing fluid source into a fluid passage and toward an outlet of the fluid passage in response to a detected increase in temperature. The fluid passage may be sized to contain the at least one fire suppressing fluid source. Discharging the fire suppressing fluid may (i) draw air from the enclosure into the fluid passage through an inlet of the fluid passage and around the at least one fire suppressing fluid source, and (ii) expel air and the fire suppressing fluid out of the fluid passage through the outlet and toward the enclosure.

Abstract: Provided is a method for controlling the operation of a cooking appliance, such as an oven range. The cooking appliance includes a door with multiple spaced apart glass panels. The method uses an interlocking mechanism that interferes with the installation of at least one of the plurality of glass panels in the door if at least one of the glass panels is not installed properly. The method further uses a switch with a plunger can be installed in the door, which allows the appliance to operate only when a failsafe electrical circuit is closed corresponding to a selected position of the plunger when the door is closed. The plunger is prevented from retaining that selected position if at least one of the glass panels is improperly installed or if a top cap is not properly seated or installed above the glass panels.

Abstract: A trim cooling assembly provides a sensible trim cooling capability for intake air provided to a downstream computing pod that includes an air cooling system that provides cooling air to computer systems in the pod. The air cooling system can evaporatively chill received intake air to provide the cooling air. The trim cooling assembly is mounted externally to the computing pod and upstream of the air cooling system and includes one or more trim cooling units that can be individually controlled to provide adjustable sensible chilling of the intake air. The trim cooling units and an evaporative cooling unit in the air cooling system can be controlled to provide various levels of sensible and evaporative cooling to maintain conditions of air downstream of the evaporative cooling unit within certain ranges. Trim cooling units can be progressively activated and de-activated in stages to provide progressively adjusted sensible cooling.

Abstract: Fire suppression systems and methods of suppressing fires are disclosed. A fire suppression system may include a housing including inlet and outlet ports, and a housing interior having a fluid passage sized to contain a fire suppressing fluid source between the inlet and outlet ports. The inlet and outlet ports may be fluidly connected to the fluid passage. The system may additionally include a fluid discharge assembly configured to discharge fire suppressing fluid from a flow control assembly into the fluid passage and toward the outlet port. At least one of the fluid passage and the fluid discharge assembly may be configured such that the discharge of the fire suppressing fluid into the fluid passage draws air into the fluid passage through the inlet port and around the fire suppressing fluid source, and expels air and the fire suppressing fluid out of the fluid passage and through the outlet port.

Abstract: A preheat damper preheats ambient air being directed to an air handling unit of a data center to mitigate ice accumulation caused by the ambient air. The ambient air can be preheated upstream of a mist eliminator, which removes moisture from the ambient air upstream of the air handling unit, to mitigate ice accumulation in the mist eliminator. The preheat damper directs exhaust air from an exhaust air plenum. The preheat damper can be adjusted based on the ambient temperature, and can be upstream of a return damper which directs exhaust air from the exhaust air plenum based on characteristics of the cooling air supplied to cool data center equipment. The return damper can be adjusted in counter-opposition with one or more intake dampers to maintain cooling air characteristics, and concurrently with the preheat damper to direct ambient air to the air handling unit through the exhaust air plenum.

Abstract: An inverted exhaust plenum module exhausts air from an enclosure into an ambient environment while mitigating airflow restrictions caused by ambient wind conditions, particularly headwinds impinging on exhaust vents. The plenum module includes wall elements that extend downwards from separate edges of two separate roof elements of the enclosure, forming a plenum between the wall elements that is open at the top. Exhaust vents in the wall elements exhaust air from the enclosure into the plenum to circulate into the ambient environment via the top of the plenum. By exhausting air into a plenum that extends beneath roof elements, the vents are at least partially obscured from ambient winds that might otherwise impinge on the vents. A wing element can be installed to induce exhaust airflow via lowering air pressure at the top of the plenum. The plenum module can be a separate module that is coupled to a structure.

Abstract: A data center includes a computer room with one or more regions, where each region includes air handling components which can be independently controlled, relative to components in other regions. A purge control system in each region can bypass a control system which adjusts the components based on environmental sensor data to command the components to purge the region. Upon the components in a region entering a purge mode, a purge notification signal can be sent to a master control system, which can instruct other control systems in other non-purging regions to limit controller output ranges to last-known values prior to the purge, so that the components in other regions are operated at last-known states while one or more regions are purging. When regions have ceased purging, the regional control systems can re-establish the control loop output ranges. Such re-establishment can include incrementally expanding the output range over time.

Abstract: Cooling units are configured to be installed in a datacenter, such as in a row configured to receive server racks. The cooling units include chilling coils configured to cool air passing across the chilling coil. The cooling units when installed supply cooled air. Units can be coupled together to expand cooling capacity, such as by forming a shared volume between adjacent units. Cooling provided through one or more coupled units can be controlled by another of the coupled units.

Abstract: A cooking apparatus comprises a housing forming an oven cavity within the housing. A door is attached to the housing for selectively opening and closing the oven cavity. The door comprises an outer surface and an inner surface. The inner surface includes a vent in fluid communication with an air channel within the door. A movable blocking element for selectively opens and closes the vent. The movable blocking element is biased against the vent when the door is open, thereby closing the vent when the door is open. The movable blocking element is configured to translate linearly within the door, toward the vent and away from the outer surface of the door to close the vent, and toward the outer surface of the door and away from the vent to open the vent.

Abstract: A data center row infrastructure module enables rapid deployment of a computing room enclosure for computer systems that provides intake air circulation to, and exhaust air removal from, the computer systems in the enclosure. The data center row infrastructure module includes free-standing exhaust plenum structures encompassing opposite sides of the enclosure and a plenum module spanning a top end of the enclosure between the free-standing exhaust plenum structures. Each free-standing exhaust plenum structure includes an internal exhaust air plenum that directs exhaust air received from the enclosure through an exhaust air outlet on a top end of the free-standing exhaust plenum structure. The plenum module establishes a bottom end of a cooling air plenum above and separate from the enclosure and between the free-standing exhaust plenum structures. Some plenum modules can direct cooling air directly to the enclosure as intake air.

Abstract: A fan assembly comprises a fan and a movable fan support. The fan has a motor and a fan blade drivable by the motor to move air in an airflow direction through an opening. The movable fan support is configured to movably support at least the fan. The fan support is mountable adjacent the opening on a first side and comprises extension members extendable from an operating position on the first side of the opening to an access position on a second side of the opening opposite the first side. In the access position, the extension members extend through the opening from the first side to the second side to support the motor and fan blade on the second of the opening for access.

Abstract: Provided is a door for a cooking appliance, such as an oven range, with multiple spaced apart glass panels. An interlocking mechanism promotes a proper installation of the glass panels, and interferes with the installation of the glass panels or with operation of the appliance if at least one of the panels is not properly installed. A switch with a plunger can be installed in the door, which allows the appliance to operate only when a failsafe electrical circuit is closed corresponding to a selected position of the plunger when the door is closed. The plunger is prevented from retaining that selected position if at least one of the glass panels is improperly installed or if a top cap is not properly seated or installed above the glass panels.
