Patent number: 10830185Abstract: The present technology provides embodiments of recirculating noble gas combustion power cycles and systems including engines utilizing these power cycles. Embodiments of the cycles may include a combination of a high intake/exhaust pressure, very late or early intake valve closure, late exhaust valve opening, intake preheating using exhaust gases, sensible heat recovery, direct injection of fuel and/or oxidizer, and a condenser to remove combustion products and dissolved trace contaminant gases. An engine operating on these principles could provide motive force for electrical production, for example at power plants, or for transit, for example for ship engines. An engine operating with the cycles disclosed herein has high thermal efficiency and low cost. For example an argon power cycle using natural gas feedstock and cryogenic oxygen air separation could exceed 60% overall efficiency.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2015Date of Patent: November 10, 2020Assignee: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIAInventors: Robert Woodrow Dibble, Miguel Sierra Aznar, Timothy Burke Sennott, Jyh-Yuan Chen

Patent number: 9045232Abstract: A base structure of the system with a pair of center containers each of rectangular form with a square width and height and an elongated length attached along an elongated side of each. A side container may be attached to each side of the center containers. A semicircular shaped inlet port is formed in a top wall of each of the center containers to form a circular inlet port. A vertical duct of cylindrical form may be attached over the inlet port and have a lower portion of constant diameter cross-section and an upper portion diverging outwardly. A fan placed in each center container to cause an air flow toward a center of each center container to be channeled upwardly to exit through the inlet port for air to flow through the vertical duct to exit the open top end.

Patent number: 8725424Abstract: Systems and methods for estimating a physical characteristic of a seafood product are provided. In one system, the estimate is based on a slope defined by a ratio of changes in peak resonant amplitude and frequency of an electromagnetic resonant circuit in loaded and unloaded states. In another system, a first probe of a plurality of probes is driven with a test signal when the plurality of probes is loaded by a seafood product and the estimate is based on received test signals at one or more of the other probes. In another system, the estimate is based on the loading effect of a seafood product on an electromagnetic resonant circuit, which is also used to read an ID from an RFID associated with the seafood product. The systems and methods may be used for individual specimens, or to determine an average estimate for multiple specimens at one time.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2013Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: Clearwater Seafoods Limited PartnershipInventors: Timothy A.

Patent number: 5278989Abstract: A communication system serving a plurality of radio units in a frequency blocked area includes a remotely controlled and remotely configurable network of radiating coaxial conductors. The radiating coaxial conductors, along with associated amplification devices, are arranged to provide radio communication to an area around the network using radio frequency radiation released by the plurality of radiating cables. Remote control to the system is provided by a control station which transmits control data to the amplification devices through the network of radiating coaxial conductors. The amplification devices are arranged to control the radiating coaxial conductors in such a way that, in response to receiving the control data, the radiating coaxial conductors may be reconfigured to overcome faults occurring in the system.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 1992Date of Patent: January 11, 1994Assignee: Andrew CorporationInventors: Timothy Burke, Harold K.
