Abstract: A liquid level indicator (14) used for determining liquid levels in a sealed container (10) includes a heat source (24) bonded to the container (10), a first temperature sensor (26) mounted on the container (10) adjacent the heat source (24), and a second temperature sensor (28) mounted on the container (10) spaced from the heat source (24). The temperatures at the first and second temperature sensors are sensed while the heat source (24) is operating, and the differential in the temperatures is measured and used to control power to the heat source (10). Changes in the differential in temperature between the first (26) and second (28) temperature sensors indicates when the heat conductivity between the first (26) and second (28) temperature sensors changes, due to presence or absence of a liquid in the container (10) at the level of the temperature sensors (26, 28).

Abstract: A smart probe system (10) for an aircraft receives an input from a heated total air temperature sensor (24). When on the ground, the heater (28) for the total air temperature probe (24) is cycled so that when a preselected temperature is indicated by the temperature sensing element (30) in the total air temperature probe (24), the heater power is turned off, and as the total air temperature probe (24) cools, changes in indicated temperature from the temperature sensing element (30) are measured and the changes analyzed and used for determining outside air temperature. The outside air temperature can be calculated by determining the rate of change in the temperature while the probe (24) cools. A complimentary method is to determine when the indicated temperature stabilizes, after the heater (28) is turned off, and deriving outside air temerature from the stabilized temperature signal from the temperature sensing element (30).

Each mirror has a generally concave shape from a top perspective at a temperature of about 20 degrees Celsius and has a generally convex shape from a top perspective at a temperature of about 85 degrees Celsius. In one embodiment, the radius of curvature may be greater than about 500 mm at a temperature of about 20 degrees Celsius and may be less than about -600 mm at a temperature of about 85 degrees Celsius at a thickness of about 10 microns. In another embodiment, the invention is a micro mirror structure including a plurality of individually movable mirrors arranged in an array. Each mirror includes a substrate, a diffusion barrier layer located above the substrate, and a reflective layer located above the diffusion barrier layer.
