US Patent:

6772627, Aug 10, 2004

Filed:

Mar 26, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/397602

Inventors:

Ronald J. Fleming - Indianapolis IN 46205

International Classification:

G01M 902

US Classification:

73147, 73148, 7317007, 7317009, 7317011, 7386166

Abstract:

Apparatus and methods for airflow testing, especially for air testing of gas turbine components on an airflow test bench. Various embodiments of the present invention include the use of a measurement section downstream of the component being tested. The measurement section, in one embodiment, includes apparatus for measurement of gas properties at a plurality of spaced-apart radial locations and/or a plurality of spaced-apart circumferential locations. In another embodiment, the invention includes a method for testing a component including a comparison of gas properties measured in both forward and reverse flow directions.

Appl. No.:

10/396924

Inventors:

Ronald J. Fleming - Indianapolis IN, US

International Classification:

G01M 9/02
G01M 9/04

US Classification:

73147

Abstract:

Apparatus and methods for airflow testing, especially for air testing of gas turbine components on an airflow test bench. Various embodiments of the present invention include the use of a flow-stabilizing member downstream of the component being tested. Since the flow through or over the component is subsonic, a flow-stabilizing member placed down stream of the component can have an effect on the flow conditions in or around the component being tested. In one embodiment, the flow-stabilizing member provides more consistent results during the testing of the component.

Abstract:

An electronic apparatus such as an audio apparatus enables both digital and analog data to be communicated over a data bus such as a universal serial bus (USB) with a single low-cost connector such as a USB connector. According to an exemplary embodiment, the electronic apparatus includes a connector operative to couple the electronic apparatus to one of a digital device and an analog device. A controller is operative to determine whether the connector is coupled to the digital device or the analog device. A switch is operative to couple the connector to one of a digital element and an analog element responsive to the determination
