The measuring system includes a transducer apparatus with two tubes. Each tube is adapted to be flowed through by a fluid from an inlet end toward an outlet end and to be caused to vibrate. An electromechanical exciter mechanism excites and maintains mechanical oscillations of each of the tubes, and a sensor arrangement registers mechanical oscillations of at least one of the tubes. The transducer apparatus includes two temperature sensors each being mechanically and thermally conductively coupled with a wall of the tube, wherein each of the temperature sensors registers a measuring point temperature, and converts such into a temperature measurement signal temperature. A measuring and operating electronics (ME) generates a transducer temperature measured value representing a transducer apparatus temperature so that a magnitude of the transducer temperature measured value is greater than a magnitude of the measuring point temperature and less than a magnitude of the measuring point temperature.

A device which: optically detects the presence of, measures the flow rate of, and identifies the characteristics of venting fugitive gas emissions. Specifically the device provides a spectral analysis of emission gas constituents; selective detection of the presence of venting hydrocarbons; measurement of venting emissions flow rates, the measurement of shut-in and flowing venting system pressures and the venting system temperatures. The flow rates are corrected, relative to the detection of the gas constituents and standard temperature and pressure (STP). These devices are configured to collect such data electronically and transmit via various telemetry systems, to a secure remote data network for reporting, access, evaluation, real-time monitoring and archiving as required.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores instructions, which when executed by a processing device of a diagnostic server, cause the processing device to perform certain operations. The operations include receiving, from a processing chamber, (i) measurement values of a combined signal that is based on an injection of an alternating signal wave onto a first output signal of a controller of the processing chamber, and (ii) measurement values of a second output signal of the controller that incorporates feedback from the processing chamber. The operations further include generating, based on the measurement values of the combined signal and the measurement values of the second output signal of the controller, a baseline bode fingerprint pertaining to a state associated with the processing chamber. The operations further include storing, in computer storage, the baseline bode fingerprint to be used in performing diagnostics of the processing chamber.

At least one parameter of a material is determined with a pressing tool usable for producing a green compact and a pressing tool for producing at least one green compact. The pressing tool has at least one planar surface which is formed at least in part by a die which, starting from the surface, extends along an axial direction and, on the surface, has a cavity which extends from the surface along the axial direction and has an inner circumferential surface; wherein the cavity forms a receptacle for a powdery material which can be pressed in the cavity by at least one punch plunging into the cavity along the axial direction to form the green compact.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to simultaneously pumping and measuring density of an aircraft fuel. The aircraft fuel is pumped by a centrifugal pump having an impeller. A rotational frequency of the impeller is determined while the centrifugal pump is pumping the aircraft fuel. Flow rate of the aircraft fuel through the centrifugal pump is sensed. Pressure of the aircraft fuel is measured at two different points within or across the centrifugal pump or a differential pressure is measured between the two different points while the centrifugal pump is pumping the aircraft fuel. Density of the aircraft fuel is determined based on a head-curve relation characterizing the centrifugal pump. The head-curve relation relates the fuel density to the rotational frequency, the flow rate, and pressures at the two different points or the differential pressure between the two different points.

A system for controlling access to data based on environmental verification can include a physical environment authenticator that receives data characterizing environmental parameters of a node in an environment from a set of environmental sensors. The physical environment authenticator can compare correlated environmental parameters with each other and/or a threshold value. At least a subset of the correlated environmental parameters are based on the data from the set of environmental sensors and grants access to a data if the correlated environmental parameters indicate that the node is operating in an authorized environment and prevents access to the data if the correlated environmental parameters indicates that the node is not operating in an authorized environment.
