20080230039 | Continuous liquid fuel vaporizer - A tubular vaporizer for vaporizing volatile liquids, and especially hydrocarbon fuels. Liquid fuel is passed into the vaporizer tube, is vaporized by heat transferred through fuel contact with the hot walls, and vaporized fuel exits the vaporizer tube. A hot carrier air stream is passed through the vaporizer with the vaporized fuel, greatly reducing the rate of buildup of deposits on the vaporizer walls; however, fueling of the vaporizer eventually must be shut down to remove the deposits. The deposits are easily removed, and the vaporizer tube completely regenerated, by passing hot air alone through the tube for a period of time. In a preferred embodiment, two parallel-path vaporization tubes and switching means therebetween are provided for alternate use and regeneration cycles, affording a continuous flow of vaporized fuel from the apparatus. The vaporizer is especially useful in providing gaseous fuel for a catalytic hydrocarbon reformer. | 09-25-2008 |

20150160144 | INTERNAL MATERIAL CONDITION MONITORING FOR CONTROL - The condition of internal or hidden material layers or interfaces is monitored and used for control of a process that changes a condition of a material system. The material system has multiple component materials, such as layers or embedded constituents, or can be represented with multiple layers to model spatial distributions in the material properties. The material condition changes as a result of a process performed on the material, such as by cold working, or from functional operation. Sensors placed proximate to the test material surface or embedded between material layers are used to monitor a material property using magnetic, electric, or thermal interrogation fields. The sensor responses are converted into states of the material condition, such as temperature or residual stress, typically with a precomputed database of sensor responses. The sensor responses can also be used to determine properties of the test material, such as electrical conductivity or magnetic permeability, prior to conversion to the material state. The states are used to support control decisions that control the process or operation causing the material condition to change. | 06-11-2015 |
