  • Publication number: 20250188853
    Abstract: A thermal system includes a tank storing a cooling fluid in a liquid state and a gas state, a first heat exchanger releasing heat into the tank, a second heat exchanger fluidly downstream of the fluid storage tank and exchanging heat between the cooling fluid and a heat load, a turbine fluidly downstream of the second heat exchanger and extracting mechanical energy from the cooling fluid, and a combustor fluidly upstream of the turbine and fluidly downstream of the second heat exchanger. The cooling fluid that has been heated by the second heat exchanger passes through the first heat exchanger and thereby heats upstream cooling fluid resident in the fluid storage tank, and the combustor is configured to ignite the cooling fluid flowing from the second heat exchanger such that combusted cooling fluid flows through and drives the turbine.

  • Patent number: 12327113
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for adapting scripts from a source platform to be utilized in a target platform when porting. Traces of system calls from the commands in the source and target platforms are analyzed to identify building blocks. A tree structure for each command of the source and target platforms is constructed with one or more building blocks from the identified building blocks. Commands of the target platform with a functionality within a threshold degree of similarity to the commands of the source platform are identified by analyzing the building blocks of the commands' tree structures. Alternative commands for the commands of the source platform, such as those commands that are not supported by the target platform, may be generated using such identified commands. The script from the source platform may then be adapted to be utilized in the target platform using such alternative commands.
