Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080271461METHOD OF STARTING TURBINE ENGINE FROM LOW ENGINE SPEED - A method of starting a turbine engine at a first engine speed value which is lower than a second engine speed value designed for a normal engine starting operation, comprises varying a fuel flow into a combustor of the engine to start the engine in repeatedly alternating speed acceleration and deceleration cycles in order to create an engine speed augmentation in each of the speed acceleration and deceleration cycles, thereby achieving the second engine speed value while preventing the engine from being overheated, and then beginning the normal engine starting operation11-06-2008

20090041632Air Purifier System and Method - The invention provides an air purification system and method for combining filtration, ultraviolet irradiation, and photocatalysis, in an annular geometry that maximizes the photocatalytic efficiency of the ultraviolet light in the deactivation of microbes and the photocatalysis of volatile compounds.02-12-2009
20090145855Water Purifier System and Method - The invention provides a water purification system and method for combining ultraviolet germicidal irradiation and photocatalysis in a helical reactor geometry that maximizes both the photocatalytic efficiency and the germicidal dosage of the ultraviolet irradiation in deactivation of microbes and the destruction of contaminant organic compounds.06-11-2009
20100260644SYSTEM FOR PURIFYING AIR THROUGH GERMICIDAL IRRADIATION AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE - An air purifying system includes one or more air permeable photocatalytic elements defining a core cavity having a sealed top end and an open bottom end. A sealed air flow path ensures that air travels from an outside of the core cavity, through the one or more photocatalytic elements, into the core cavity, to be expelled through the open bottom end. A UV radiation source disposed within the core cavity irradiates air travelling along the sealed flow path and an interior of the one or more photocatalytic elements. Each photocatalytic element is manufactured using a substrate, that is conductive of and transparent to UV radiation, coated with a photocatalyst. A non-photocatalytically active material is initially coated on the substrate and is then converted to a photocatalyst by calcination.10-14-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090187366TEST APPARATUS AND METHODS THEREOF - A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, an apparatus for testing having a controller to perform test case conflict resolution by comparing an execution descriptor to one or more platform descriptors. The execution descriptor can have one or more platforms to be tested, each platform comprising at least one among one or more bases, one or more modules, and combinations thereof. Each of the one or more platform descriptors can have one or more test cases and a description of one or more platform limitations for executing the one or more test cases. Additional embodiments are disclosed.07-23-2009

20080272915EQUIPMENT MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD - There is provided a system for monitoring a replaceable unit. The system comprises a passive memory device attached to the replaceable unit forming part of an assembly such as an engine. The passive memory is for storing and for providing access to replaceable unit information comprising unit identification and usage information. The system may further comprise an event detector which may be embodied as an electronic engine controller (EEC) operatively connected to the engine, for accumulating the usage information related to the replaceable unit, and for communicating with the passive memory device to update the unit information stored in the passive memory device with the usage information.11-06-2008
