Adjustment and remote control system with a pressure regulator for irrigation systems
Adjustment and remote control system with a pressure regulator for irrigation systems to regulate the water pressure at the outlet, and consequently its flow, being crucial to assure the uniformity and the quantity of water as applied. In the adjustment and remote control system for pressure in irrigation systems, the electronic control board is informed of the target pressure at the outlet of the pressure regulator as disclosed in this document; it reads the current pressure of the adjustment and control system by means of the electronic pressure sensor and, if the pressure is lower than the target, a solenoid valve for pressure increase is activated, using the pressure generated by a pressure generator in any given fluid, and, if the pressure is higher, that pressure is reduced.
Diaphragm check valve
A check valve, including a valve and a valve support surface, to permit a fluid to move through the check valve in a first direction and resist a fluid flow through the valve in a second direction, the valve having a valve diaphragm and an isolating bridge, with a portion of the valve engaging against valve support surface to resist deformation or stretching of the valve when a backflow of fluid into the check valve occurs. The valve support surface having a first surface portion and a second surface portion, and the valve positioned with the valve diaphragm spaced apart from the first surface portion, and the isolating bridge spaced apart from the second surface portion.
Injection molding apparatus and method for automatic cycle to cycle cavity injection
An injection molding system comprising: a first selected valve, one or more downstream valves, delivering a fluid to a mold cavity, at least one fluid property sensor that detects a flow front of fluid material flowing downstream through the mold cavity at a trigger location within the cavity disposed between the first gate and at least one selected downstream gate, a controller instructing an actuator associated with the downstream gates to open the gates at a predetermined open gate target time on a first injection cycle, each valve associated with a position sensor that detects opening of a gate at an actual open gate time to the controller, the controller automatically adjusting time of instruction to open the gates on a subsequent injection cycle by an adjustment time equal to any delay in time between the predetermined open gate target time and the actual open gate time.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR LIMITING OR KEEPING CONSTANT A FLOWING QUANTITY OF LIQUID
A device for limiting or keeping constant a quantity of fluid flowing therethrough, includes: a housing with a front chamber and a rear chamber; a partition arranged in the housing with two or more openings; and a flow limiting element arranged in one or both openings. The flow limiting element includes a housing provided with an inlet, an outlet and a throughflow opening; and a resilient plate-like valve element mounted in the housing, substantially able to close the throughflow opening by resilient movement in the direction of a valve seat arranged in the housing adjacently of the throughflow opening. The valve element is fixed on one side and can move resiliently on the opposite side in the direction of the valve seat. A mould produces one or more injection-moulded products. The injection-moulded product is a flow limiter for limiting the force of the flow of a fluid flowing therethrough.
Device for Limiting or Keeping Constant a Flowing Quantity of Fluid
Flow-limiting element (100) for limiting the flow of a fluid flowing therethrough, comprising a housing (1) provided with an inlet (2), an outlet (3); and a resilient plate-like valve element (4) which is arranged in the housing (1) and which is movable to and from a valve seat (9), defining a throughflow opening (11) therebetween, under the influence of a pressure of the fluid flowing therethrough and is arranged to adjust the size of the throughflow opening (11); wherein the valve seat (9) is arranged with a protruding member (113), having a footprint and a height, for limiting the movement of the resilient plate-like valve element (4) towards the valve seat (9), wherein the protruding member (113) comprises an engagement surface for engaging the resilient plate-like valve element (4), wherein the engagement surface is at least partially curved, wherein a radius of curvature of the at least partially curved engagement surface is equal to, or larger than, a smallest dimension of the footprint of the protruding member (113).
Fluid Flow Regulator
A fluid flow regulator (10) comprising: a valve chamber (12) having a fluid inlet (14a) and a fluid outlet (14b); and a valve member (16) inside the valve chamber (12), the valve member (16) moveable inside the valve chamber (12); wherein the valve member (16) is concave in the direction of the fluid inlet and convex in the direction of the fluid outlet.
BELLOWS DIAPHRAGM ASSEMBLY
A diaphragm assembly for a mass flow controller is disclosed. The diaphragm assembly includes an aperture, side walls extending from the aperture and disposed about a central axis, the side walls including multiple convolutions, and a poppet including an interior surface facing the aperture and exterior sealing surface. At least a portion of the diaphragm assembly moveable extends and retracts within a control valve cavity of the mass flow controller. A push rod extending from the interior surface of the poppet moves, responsive to an actuator of the mass flow controller, to enable the exterior sealing surface of the poppet to open and close a flow path through the control valve cavity.
Multilevel production control for complex network of wells with smart completions
Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for performing an advanced control policy for a group of wells. Choke settings are applied to one or more control elements of each well in a group of wells. Rig control settings are applied to the group of wells. The rig control settings define, for each rule in a set of rules: a rule count limiting a number of times a rule is to be executed in a simulation run and a rule frequency identifying a time frequency by which the rule is to be executed during the simulation run. Settings are received for targets and constraints for the group of wells. The simulation run is executed for the group of wells using the choking settings, the rig control settings, and the settings for of the targets and constraints for the group of wells.
