20080199612 | Method and Apparatus For Hydrogenation of Thin Film Silicon on Glass - A method and apparatus is provided for hydrogenation of a target, such as a polycrystalline silicon film on a glass substrate, by using an atomic hydrogen source. The target is subjected to intermittent exposure of the atomic hydrogen field of the source until at least one area of the target has been subjected to the hydrogen field for a predetermined minimum period of time. The processing area of the source established by its atomic hydrogen field is smaller than the target, and after the target is moved into the high temperature processing zone it is translated within the high temperature processing zone to intermittently process successive areas of the target until the entire target has been processed for a predetermined minimum period of time. After the entire target has been processed, the target is cooled to a predetermined lower temperature while still intermittently subjecting the target to atomic hydrogen. | 08-21-2008 |

20080264067 | Controlling operation of a compressor to avoid surge - A compressor or fan is controlled to avoid stall, surge or flutter. The control system includes a look-up table from which is retrieved a margin-adjusted limiting value of a control parameter of the compressor, using inputs representing inlet guide vane angle (IGV), non-dimensional speed of the compressor (N/R√T), vehicle Mach number (Mn) and inlet geometry (IG). A variable stall, surge or flutter safety margin about a nominal limiting value of a control parameter is pre-established to reflect threats to the working, stall, flutter and surge lines, for example as a result of measurement inaccuracies, and from this the margin-adjusted limiting value is derived. An actual value of the control parameter is determined in real time, and the actual value is compared with the margin-adjusted limiting value. An output signal indicating stall, surge or flutter risk is generated if the actual value falls within the stall, surge or flutter safety margin. | 10-30-2008 |

20120306215 | Wind Turbine - A system and method for fluid power conversion is described which can provide the basis for a new and improved wind turbine suitable to manufacture a horizontal axis (HAWT) or vertical axis (VAWT) turbine at one of a range of different power classes such as from 4 kiloWatts to 10 MegaWatts. In the case of the VAWT, the wind turbine comprises one or more turbine blades moving around a vertical axis wherein each blade is anchored to a central hub by at least one strut and by at least two cable wires. In the case of the HAWT, the wind turbine comprises two or more turbine blades moving around a horizontal axis wherein each blade is anchored to a central hub. The turbine central hub comprises a relatively large diameter, which is coupled to a power generation support structure via a plurality of roller bearings or the like. As the central hub turns, it drives the roller bearings, which are each coupled with a separate power generation component such as an electric generator or a hydraulic gearpump. This configuration of a large diameter central hub coupled to multiple electrical power generators and or gearpumps wherein each power generation component of the system is controlled by an intelligent central system controller, provides versatile control of the net output power generated by the turbine and thereby maximizes the efficiency of the turbine over a range of wind speeds. The electric generators and or hydraulic gearpumps may together comprise a range of power conversion ratings to further optimise and control the power output of the wind turbine over a range of wind speeds. | 12-06-2012 |
20130035878 | System and Method for a Surface Strain Gauge - A system and method for a surface strain gauge is described which has direct application to wind turbine structures and wind turbine blades and wind turbine struts. The invention is equally applicable to other airfoil structures such as aircraft wings and aircraft fuselages. The strain gauge comprises an array of carbon fibre material integrated with one or more microcontroller modules wherein the entire array may be incorporated into the surface of the structure to be monitored during manufacture of the structure. The array comprises separate sheets of carbon fibre reinforced epoxy which are linked together and which each comprise a separately addressable element such as a microcontroller wherein the microcontrollers are connected to a power supply and to a central bus which itself links to a central system controller. Differential measurements of the resistance of separate carbon fibre reinforced epoxy sheets may be determined in real time as well as the resistance between two or more sheets. In this way real time dynamic load monitoring can be performed and compared with original values determined at time of manufacture to provide data on fatigue of the structure with time before damage and failure occurs. | 02-07-2013 |
20130094962 | System and Method for a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine - A system and method for a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) is described which can provide the basis for a new and improved wind turbine design suitable for a range of different power classes such as from 4 kilowatts to 10 megawatts. A vertical blade of chord length C is attached to a central hub via a main support strut of chord length C. The main support strut comprises two sections: a blade-support-section and a counterweight-support-section. Both the blade-support-section and the counter-weight-support-section have a blunt leading edge and a tapered trailing edge with the profile reversing either side of the hub axis. Two control struts comprising aerodynamic profiles support the blade wherein one control strut connects to the upper surface of the main support strut and the other control strut connects to the lower surface of the main support strut hub. The main support strut and the control struts provide lift to the wind turbine and reduce drag. The vertical blade and the main support strut comprise an integrated differential strain gauge, which is linked to a central controller and provides real time data on the integrity of the blade and strut. | 04-18-2013 |
