A circulator is described that is configured to circulate liquids such as water, chemical mixtures, suspensions and the like. The circulator has an oscillation shaft disposed within, for example concentrically disposed within, a support tube that is used to mount the circulator to a support structure. Locating the oscillation shaft within the support tube makes the circulator more compact, achieves better alignment of the oscillation shaft and the support tube, and makes the circulator stronger compared to a circulator where the oscillation shaft is not disposed within a support tube. In one embodiment, the circulator can be used to create a continuous flow of water in a body of water including around marinas, areas around docks, and waterfronts.

DECOUPLING TIDAL EFFECTS FROM WATER DEPTH MEASUREMENTS IN STORMWATER DRAINAGE SYSTEMS
20220356690 · 2022-11-10 ·

The invention is directed towards decoupling tidal effects from time-series depth measurements. A drainage sensor includes a fluid depth sensor. The drainage sensors are positioned at monitoring points in a drainage system. Stormwater flows into an input of the drainage system. A tidal depth sensor is positioned in a tidal body of water near an output of the drainage system. During period of high tide, tidal water backflows into the output of the drainage system. The decoupling is accomplished by generating a model of tidal backflow patterns based on data from the drainage sensors and the tidal sensor. The model accounts for a lag time between the tidal data measurements and measurements of the drainage sensors. The model is be used to predict the contribution of tidal backflow effects to stormwater data.
