| 20120018021 | VORTEX GENERATORS TO CONTROL BOUNDARY LAYER INTERACTIONS - Devices for generating streamwise vorticity in a boundary includes various forms of vortex generators. One form of a split-ramp vortex generator includes a first ramp element and a second ramp element with front ends and back ends, ramp surfaces extending between the front ends and the back ends, and vertical surfaces extending between the front ends and the back ends adjacent the ramp surfaces. A flow channel is between the first ramp element and the second ramp element. The back ends of the ramp elements have a height greater than a height of the front ends, and the front ends of the ramp elements have a width greater than a width of the back ends. | 01-26-2012 |

| 20080245903 | Method and apparatus for online flow control over the span of a high aspect ratio slot jet - A method and apparatus for controlling local flow along a slot jet with applications to airknives is disclosed. The airknife provides improved options for on-line control over coating thickness and edge build-up prevention. The gap of the slot nozzle of the airknife can remain constant while the outflow pattern is controlled by a series of preset throttle valves in combination with a single moving component, the multi-port aero-valve. This valve can be actuated locally or remotely, in rotation or translation, thereby changing gradually from a conventional uniform outflow to one which increases in velocity and mass flow rate along the airknife span to produce a bow effect. The valve can also change gradually from a conventional uniform outflow to one which increases in velocity, mass flow rate and outflow angle along the span to simulate bow effect in combination with fan-like outflow. | 10-09-2008 |

| 20110220041 | Accelerated compression ignition engine for HCCI - An internal combustion engine has cylinder wall cavities located near the top dead center stroke end to allow optimizing the compression ratio in first stage compression, as function of fuel octane number used. The volume of the cylinder wall cavities is designed to be adjustable, even when the engine is operating. Using a conventional piston motion, the second stage compression becomes accelerated as soon the upper piston ring seals-off the cylinder wall cavities. This is due to the sudden significant reduction in volume. During the power stroke, after the upper piston ring opens the cylinder wall cavities; their fuel content is ignited by second stage combustion products. Because the torque required during accelerated compression is no greater than during first stage compression, stresses in the crankshaft are no more than in conventional spark ignition engines. This allows small displacement engines to be of light weight and to be hand cranked. | 09-15-2011 |

| 20110011174 | RETRIEVABLE DOWNHOLE TESTING TOOL - A retrievable downhole testing tool that is adapted to be temporarily installed in a well is disclosed. The retrievable downhole testing tool comprises a variable choke, a tool control unit adapted to control the variable choke, and at least two measuring sensors adapted to measure physical parameters including pressure. At least one measuring sensor is situated above the variable choke, and at least one measuring sensor is situated below the variable choke. The retrievable downhole testing tool is pre-programmed with a specified test sequence for controlling a downhole flow rate using the variable choke and for executing downhole measurements of physical parameters at specified flow periods. The specified test sequence is adapted according to a pre-defined stability criterion using the tool control unit. | 01-20-2011 |

| 20100079944 | POWER ELECTRONIC MODULE COOLING SYSTEM AND METHOD - An improved cooling mechanism for a power electronics device is provided. More specifically, a cooling mechanism is provided that includes an air passageway configured to allow cooling air to bypass a portion of a heatsink adjacent to the rectifier circuitry and direct cooling air into an area of the heatsink that is nearer to the inverter circuitry. Another embodiment employs an air passageway with an air directing structure configured to provide an air flow that impinges on a lateral surface of the heatsink. In another embodiment, the air directing structure is chosen to provide a turbulent air flow in the heat dissipating structure within the vicinity of the inverter circuitry. | 04-01-2010 |
