    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an analyzer for measuring the vapor pressure of a hydrocarbon liquid. The analyzer includes a pressure measuring system connected to an air saturation system having a circulation chamber with opposing first and second ends. A first opening is disposed toward the first end and a second opening is disposed toward the second end. A plumbing system connects the first and second openings. A pump moves the hydrocarbon liquid through the plumbing system from the first opening to the second opening so as to saturate the hydrocarbon liquid with air. The air saturation system has a cooler for cooling the hydrocarbon liquid and the pressure measuring system has a heater for heating the hydrocarbon liquid. The pump may be a piston actuated pump or a motor-driven pump and the plumbing system may include an aeration chamber.

    Abstract: A method replaces a saturable core reactor (SCRs) in a rectifier power transformer disposed in a transformer vault at its field location. The transformer has an oil-filled tank housing the SCRs. The tank has a manhole opening therein. A busbar structure is associated with each SCR. The method drains the oil from the tank. A busbar structure is disconnected from an associated SCR. The disconnected busbar structure is moved away from the transformer. The SCR is removed from the tank through the manhole opening and is lowered. The SCR is then conveyed from the transformer vault. A replacement SCR is moved to be adjacent the manhole opening and is then slid through the manhole opening and into the tank to a certain location. The busbar structure is moved so as to be associated with a replacement SCR and is connected to the replacement SCR.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting mechanical problems in machinery used in a process. A model of the process is developed using a modeling technique such as advanced pattern recognition and the model is used to generate predicted values for a predetermined number of the operating parameters of the process and vibration parameters of the machinery. Statistical process control methods are used to determine if the difference between the predicted and actual measured values for one or more of the parameters exceeds a configured statistical limit. A rule set is used to indicate an actual or probable fault in the machinery.

    Abstract: Es wird ein intelligentes Schnittstellensystem zum Verbinden einer externen Anwendung mit einem dezentralen Steuerungssystem (DSS) bereitgestellt. Das Schnittstellensystem ist dafür geeignet, das DSS automatisch abzutasten, um seine Konfiguration festzustellen und ein Topologiemodell des DSS zu erstellen. Das Topologiemodell wird verwendet, um festzustellen, ob Daten, die aus einem Modul in dem DSS angefordert wurden, durch das Modul bereitgestellt werden können. Das Topologiemodell wird so erstellt, dass es Thread-sicher ist. Ein Drosselmechanismus in dem Schnittstellensystem schützt das DSS vor einer Überlastung durch Datenanforderungen.

    Abstract: An intelligent interface system is provided for connecting an external application to a distributed control system (DCS). The interface system is operable to automatically scan the DCS to determine its configuration and build a topology model of the DCS. The topology model is used to determine whether data requested from a module in the DCS can be provided by the module. The topology model is constructed to be thread-safe. A throttling mechanism in the interface system protects the DCS from being subjected to excessive data requests.

    Abstract: When a fossil fuel well is producing fossil fuel, lift gas injected into the well to bring the naturally occurring fluids in the well to the surface along with the fossil fuel and the plunger if the well has a plunger. An instrument is programmed to use the predetermined criteria to dynamically control the rate of injection of the lift gas into the well.
