Abstract: A combined cycle propulsion system (CCPS) module combines a low-speed propulsion system (LSPS) such as a turbojet and a high-speed propulsion system (HSPS) such as dual mode ramjet engines with a mid-speed propulsion system (MSPS) such as a ejector ramjet engine to close a thrust gap between the upper operation limit of the LSPS and the lower operation limit of the HSPS in a flight vehicle. A cooling system ensures thermal protection of the non-operating LSPS during MSPS or HSPS operation by cooling tapped air from the MSPS or HSPS using a heat exchanger and expansion in a turbine/generator and directing cooled tapped air into the LSPS.

Abstract: A method for accurately producing the drilled hole in a wall of a component fabricated by investment casting process, such as for use in a blade or steam turbine includes the following steps. The 3D data of actual component is obtained from the measurements or from the numerical simulation. The actual model and the ideal model are aligned and compared, a series of cutting planes are given to establish a series of 2D cross-sections of the actual and ideal models after registration. Each cross-section is dispersed into discrete points, the distance between each corresponding points are calculated and formed into 2D displacement. The accurate parametric model consisting of the depth, hole center, and the nominal vector is obtained on the basis of considering the deviations in geometrical and positional values. The drilled hole is then produced according to the corrected parametric drilled-hole geometrical and positional value.

Abstract: The present application relates to an identification system, particularly to identification and entry system and method activated by distance. The application aims at solving security problems in existing identification field. To this end, the identification system of the application comprises a feature gathering module for gathering distinctive features of detected object and a control module in communication with the feature gathering module, which is used for activating the feature gathering module when distance between the detected object and a certain area is shorter than a specific threshold, and also used for opening the certain area for the detected object to enter when the distinctive features of the detected object gathered by the feature gathering module match previously stored distinctive features of the detected object.
