Apparatus and methods for determining gas saturation and porosity of a formation penetrated by a gas filled or liquid filled borehole

Patent Wilson, Robert D [477 W. Scenic Dr., Grand Junction, CO 81503]

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for determining gas saturation, liquid saturation, porosity and density of earth formations penetrated by a well borehole. Determinations are made from measures of fast neutron and inelastic scatter gamma radiation induced by a pulsed, fast neutron source. The system preferably uses two detectors axially spaced from the neutron source. One detector is preferably a scintillation detector responsive to gamma radiation, and a second detector is preferably an organic scintillator responsive to both neutron and gamma radiation. The system can be operated in cased boreholes which are filled with either gas or liquid. Techniques for correctingmore »« less

System and method for filling a plurality of isolated vehicle fluid circuits through a common fluid fill port

Patent Sullivan, Scott C; Fansler, Douglas

A vehicle having multiple isolated fluid circuits configured to be filled through a common fill port includes a first fluid circuit disposed within the vehicle, the first fluid circuit having a first fill port, a second fluid circuit disposed within the vehicle, and a conduit defining a fluid passageway between the first fluid circuit and second fluid circuit, the conduit including a valve. The valve is configured such that the first and second fluid circuits are fluidly coupled via the passageway when the valve is open, and are fluidly isolated when the valve is closed.

Method and apparatus for smart battery charging including a plurality of controllers each monitoring input variables

Patent Hammerstrom, Donald J.

A method for managing the charging and discharging of batteries wherein at least one battery is connected to a battery charger, the battery charger is connected to a power supply. A plurality of controllers in communication with one and another are provided, each of the controllers monitoring a subset of input variables. A set of charging constraints may then generated for each controller as a function of the subset of input variables. A set of objectives for each controller may also be generated. A preferred charge rate for each controller is generated as a function of either the set ofmore »« less

Method and apparatus for simultaneously measuring a plurality of spectral wavelengths present in electromagnetic radiation

Patent Buican, Tudor N [Los Alamos, NM]; Martin, John C [Los Alamos, NM]

An apparatus and method simultaneously measures a plurality of spectral wavelengths present in electromagnetic radiation. A modulatable birefringent optical element is employed to divide a polarized light beam into two components, thereby producing a phase difference in two resulting light beams such that the two beams can be made to interfere with one another when recombined, the interference pattern providing the wavelength information required for the analysis of the incident light. The interferometer thus created performs in a similar manner to a Michelson interferometer, but with no moving parts, and with a resolution dependent on the degree of phase shiftmore » introduced by the modulator.« less

Microchannel apparatus comprising plural microchannels and methods of conducting unit operations

Patent Wegeng, Robert S [Richland, WA]; TeGrotenhuis, Ward E [Kennewick, WA]; Whyatt, Greg A [West Richland, WA]

Microchannel apparatus comprising a header and plural flow microchannels is described in which orifices connect the header and the flow microchannels. The orifices constrict flow. The ratio of the cross-sectional area of each of the orifices to the cross-sectional area of the flow microchannels connected to the orifices is between 0.0005 and 0.1. Also described is microchannel apparatus for conducting unit operations in which a device comprises two arrays of microchannels, and a unit operation is conducted on a fluid as it passes through the first set of microchannels and into a header where a second unit operation is performed,more »« less
