Publication number: 20250079914Abstract: An integrated compressor comprises an electric motor that is prone to windage losses, radial loads, and recirculation flows. According to a first feature, partial grooves or riblets may be formed on the surface of a motor stator that defines the radially outward boundary of the air gap between the motor stator and the motor rotor. These partial grooves or riblets may maintain low to moderate windage losses, while reducing radial loads in the motor. According to a second feature, a support structure may be designed with a nose portion that is configured to disrupt or otherwise reduce recirculation flows within the end-winding cavity housing the end-winding of the motor. According to a third feature, the spiral orientation of the top coil of the end-winding may be aligned with the rotation direction of the motor rotor to reduce recirculation flows within the end-winding cavity.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2023Publication date: March 6, 2025Applicant: Solar Turbines IncorporatedInventors: Sahand PIROUZPANAH, Michael B. MCCUNE, Lei ZHU, Jess Lee FREEMAN, Tianli ZHANG

Patent number: 10152773Abstract: A processing device receives input representing a selection of a first area of a source image. The processing device sends a request to a server machine for a result image that corresponds to the source image. The processing device, responsive to determining that the server machine does not have the result image, creates a blurred area for the first area, the blurred area corresponding to a portion of the image that contains the first area. The portion of the image having a size that is greater than an aggregate size of the first area and less than the size of the image. The processing device also sends the blurred area to the server machine for storage of the blurred area as the result image. The processing device replaces the first area with the corresponding portion of the blurred area without blurring a remaining area of the image.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2018Date of Patent: December 11, 2018Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Shiming Yuan, Qianjie Zhong, Ting Wang, Tianli Zhang

Patent number: 9978127Abstract: A processing device receives input representing a selection of a first area of a source image. The processing device identifies a result image that corresponds to the source image. The result image is previously created for the source image using a blur operation. The processing device aligns the selected first area of the source image with a corresponding portion in the result image. The processing device transforms, using the corresponding portion in the result image, the aligned first area in the source image to a blurred area without blurring a remaining area of the source image.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2017Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Shiming Yuan, Qianjie Zhong, Ting Wang, Tianli Zhang
