摘要:
A system for characterizing the pressure, temperature, movement and flow patterns of a fluid under high pressure within a test cell. The test cell is lined internally with adjustable rock facings. Pressure is measured within the test cell using a device employing pressure-distortable optical fibers. Fluid velocity, flow direction, and filter-cake buildup are measured with laser Doppler velocimetry. The flow pattern of the fluid is viewed using corresponding arrays of transmitting and receiving optical fibers. Temperature of the fluid is estimated using a combination of thermal sensors. The pressure, velocity, viewing and temperature systems are integral to the rock facings of the test cell.

A cable drum receives a length of working cable that is wound in and out from the drum in response to powered rotation of the drum with an uppermost layer of working cable on the drum forming a working surface. A torque sensor in communication with the cable drum measures a torque applied to the cable drum due to tension on the working cable from a load. A drum height gauge is provided for measuring a height of the working surface of the cable on the cable drum. A processor receives the torque value from the torque sensor and the height of the working surface from the drum height gauge and computes a force applied to the length of working cable due to the load based on the torque and height of the working surface. The work performed by the cable may be calculated to assist in determining cable health.

A long-range cattle identification system used to monitor a plurality of animals. The system uses a plurality of electronic information tags that are attachable to animals. The electronic information tags transmit and receive electronic information with at least one other electronic information tag. The electronic information tags are spatially disposed so that one electronic information tag can transmit and receive at least one other electronic information tag's individual electronic information to form a mesh network. The system includes a communication device that can communicate with at least one electronic information tag and receive information from that tag. The communication device can also receive the information contained in all the other electronic information tags in the mesh network through the at least one electronic information tag.
