Gauge with adaptive calibration and method
Memory gauge and method for processing recorded raw data acquired with a memory gauge in a well. The method includes selecting a first calibration table (C.sub.1), of the memory gauge, that has a highest calibration value for the measured parameter; performing a first analysis of the recorded raw data using the first calibration table (C.sub.1) to determine a highest measured value of the measured parameter; comparing the highest measured value of the measured parameter with highest calibration values of the plural calibration tables of the memory gauge; and when a highest calibration value of a second calibration table is closer to the highest measured value of the measured parameter than the highest calibration value of the first calibration table, selecting the second calibration table (C.sub.2); and performing a second analysis of the recorded raw data using the second calibration table (C.sub.2) to generate measured values of the measured parameter.
Data logger, in particular for monitoring an environment parameter for storing medication

Cognitive energy assessment by a non-intrusive sensor in a thermal energy fluid transfer system
Embodiments for assessing energy in a thermal energy fluid transfer system in a cloud computing environment by a processor. Behavior of the thermal energy fluid transfer system, associated with a heating service, a cooling service, or a combination thereof, may be learned according to collected data to identify one or more energy usage events. An energy usage assessment operation may be performed using temperature signal disambiguation operations, with data collected over a selected time period by one or more non-intrusive Internet of Things (IoT) sensors located at one or more selected positions in the thermal energy fluid transfer system, to learn the system performance indicators, and when coupled with ingested expected policy behavior, identify one or more energy usage waste events according to the learned behavior in real time.

GLASS-CERAMIC THERMAL PAINT SYSTEM AND METHOD USING UV:VIS SPECTROSCOPY
Temperature measurements are critical in gas turbine engine design but difficult to obtain due to the extreme environment. Temperature indicating paints (thermal paints) have been used for decades to map maximum temperature fields on superalloy components but have numerous weaknesses. Disclosed herein are novel glass ceramic thermal paints that undergo viscous flow sintering to indicate temperatures up to 1000° C., with high resolution (±5° C.), by an optical transition. Disclosed paint formulations are designed to adhere to Nickel-based superalloys or SiC—SiC ceramic matrix composites (CMC) by closely matching coefficients of thermal expansion and may function for times above 60 hours. By utilizing automation and a UV:VIS spectrometer, quantitative temperature maps can be generated for easy comparison to theoretical models. A transient sintering energy model is disclosed to recover full thermal history information.
