DETECTION AND DEFLECTION OF FLUID LEAKAGES IN IMMERSION COOLING SYSTEMS
A fluid leakage deflection arrangement for a liquid-cooled rack-mounted electronic processing assembly and a method for deflecting fluid leakages in a liquid-cooled rack-mounted electronic processing assembly are disclosed. The fluid leakage deflection arrangement comprises an immersion case containing a first cooling liquid in which an electronic device of the rack-mounted electronic processing assembly is at least partially submerged therein; and a deflection unit configured to prevent the electronic device from being in contact with a leaking liquid distinct from the first cooling liquid by diverting leaking liquid away from the electronic components.
Cleaning system for an agricultural sprayer
A cleaning system for an agricultural sprayer may include a sprayer boom, a plurality of nozzle assemblies provided in association with the sprayer boom and configured to dispense an agricultural product during a spraying operation of the agricultural sprayer, a first cleaning fluid tank configured to hold a first cleaning fluid, and a nozzle assembly fluid circuit fluidly coupling the plurality of nozzle assemblies and the first cleaning fluid tank. Moreover, the cleaning system may include a cleaning station supported on the sprayer boom, the cleaning station comprising a first valve. Additionally, the cleaning system may include a first cleaning fluid circuit fluidly coupling the first valve and the first cleaning fluid tank. The first valve is configured to supply the first cleaning fluid therethrough when the first valve is in an open position.
Control method of washing machine
In a control method of a washing machine, a primary nephelometric turbidity unit (NTU) of washing water is sensed before a washing course is started in a washing cycle, a second NTU is sensed based on the primary NTU, and a washing time, an amount of washing agent, and/or a number of times of rinsing are varied based on a difference value between the primary NTU and the secondary NTU, thereby improving washing performance and washing efficiency.
Systems and methods for monitoring a level of hydraulic fluid in an agricultural sprayer
In one aspect, a system for monitoring a level of hydraulic fluid in an agricultural sprayer includes a drive system, a hydraulic fluid system, and a fill level sensor. The system also includes a computing system communicatively coupled to both the drive system and the fill level sensor. The computing system is configured to monitor the level of hydraulic fluid within the hydraulic fluid reservoir based on data received from the fill level sensor. The computing system is further configured to detect a leak condition in the hydraulic fluid system based at least in part on the monitored level of the hydraulic fluid within the hydraulic fluid reservoir and control an operation of the drive system to reduce the ground speed of the agricultural sprayer in response to detecting the leak condition.
Vehicular liquid containment system and method for verifying integrity of same
A vehicular liquid containment system including a tank, a pressure sensor arranged to detect a pressure in a vapor dome inside the tank, at least two thermistors configured to detect temperatures at a plurality of levels of the tank, and leak detection logic operatively connected to the pressure sensor and the thermistors. The leak detection logic is configured to: use a first thermistor of the thermistors to perform a first measurement indicative of a temperature in the vapor dome in the tank; estimate an expected pressure evolution in function of at least the first temperature measurement; monitor pressure sensed by the pressure sensor, determine whether the monitored pressure deviates from the expected pressure evolution, and generate a leak condition signal conditional on the determining.
Methods and Apparatus for Detection of Leaks in Underground Storage Tanks
A system for the non-volumetric detection of low-threshold leaks with high resolution in underground storage tanks (USTs). A UST may be located underground with a restricted tank entry opening. The interior space of a UST may be accessed with a remotely controlled device. The presence of a liquid fill material or indicia thereof evidencing a leak may be visually observed. Variables affecting volumetric measurements of leak detection, such as temperature, pressure, tank deflection, and groundwater, may be eliminated or controlled. Visual observation may enable high resolution detection of low-threshold leaks.
WASHER FLUID LEVEL DETECTION
A system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions executable by the processor to, upon determining that a first fluid level in a vehicle container is below a threshold based on fluid level sensor data, determine a second fluid level based on a fluid consumption signal and the fluid level sensor, and to navigate the vehicle based on the determined second fluid level.
FUEL LEAK DETERMINATION VIA PREDICTIVE MODELING
Data characterizing a fuel storage facility can be received from one or more of a plurality of sensors disposed in the fuel storage facility. A fuel leak prediction for the fuel storage facility can be determined by a server, based on the received data, and further based on at least one predictive model that predicts whether a fuel leak exists in the fuel storage facility. The fuel leak prediction can be provided by the server. Related apparatus, systems, methods, techniques, and articles are also described.
System and method of fluid detection for a plurality of tanks
A system and method for continuous measurement of multiple fluids in multiple tanks and computation of physical properties for each of the multiple fluids continuously, which uses a plurality of probes, at least one client device, a master control processor, and a master control data storage. The system and method can use computer instructions for receiving data from the plurality of probes, receiving data from other detection devices associated with the fluid in each tank, mapping received data to a relational database, and comparing mapped data to stored values associated with prioritized alarm functions. The system and method can also use computer instructions for generating alarms to both a display connected with the master control processor and to at least one client device using a network, generating reports associated with each generated alarm, generating an alarm log, and generating a history of actions taken by a user.
System and method for controlling boom assembly movement of an agricultural sprayer
An agricultural sprayer includes an actuator configured to adjust the position of a boom assembly of the sprayer relative to a frame of the sprayer. A computing system is configured to determine the operating parameter of the sprayer at a current time based on received sensor data. Moreover, the computing system is configured to anticipate when the boom assembly will move relative to the frame in a fore/aft direction at a future time based on the determined operating parameter, with the fore/aft direction being parallel to a direction of travel of the agricultural sprayer. In addition, when it is anticipated that the boom assembly will move, the computing system is configured to control the operation of the actuator before the future time such that movement of the boom assembly relative to the frame is reduced at the future time.
