Abstract:
A filter remaining capacity detection system is presented that includes a parameter retriever that retrieves parameter information for an atmosphere around the filter. The system also includes an adsorption estimate generator that, based on the parameter information retrieved, solves a set of controlling equations to generate an adsorption estimate. The controlling equations are a set of mass and energy balance equations. The system also includes a remaining capacity detector that, based on the adsorption estimate, generates a remaining capacity estimate. The system also includes a signal generator that generates a signal if the remaining capacity estimate is below a threshold.
Abstract:
A thermal management system includes a housing having an interior space; a heat-generating component disposed within the interior space; and a working fluid disposed within the interior space such that the heat-generating component contacts a liquid phase of the working fluid; and an adsorber assembly disposed within the interior space. The adsorber assembly is in fluid communication with the interior space and an environment external to the thermal management system. The adsorber assembly is configured to: (i) receive a fluid stream from the interior space, the fluid stream including a vapor phase of the working fluid and a non-condensable gas; (ii) at least partially separate the working fluid from the fluid stream and, then, vent the fluid stream to the environment external to the fluid space; and (iii) return the separated working fluid to the interior space.
Abstract:
Layered filtered cartridge systems with an End of Service Life Indicating system include a filter cartridge that includes filter media. The filter media includes a multi-layer construction, of a first sorbent layer, a second sorbent layer, and a sensing element adjacent to the first and second sorbent layers such that an indicating element of the sensing element is located at the interface between the first and second sorbent layers. The first sorbent layer has a higher adsorption capacity and/or higher adsorption rate than the second sorbent layer. The sensing element indicates the passage of an adsorption wavefront through the filter cartridge.

Abstract:
A filter predicted capacity estimation system is presented that includes a parameter retriever that retrieves parameter information for an atmosphere around the filter. The system includes a parameter trend retriever that retrieves historical parameter indications from a database. The system also includes a real time capacity estimator that, based on the parameter information retrieved, and solves a set of controlling equations to generate an estimated capacity. The controlling equations are a set of mass and energy balance equations. The system also includes a parameter projection generator that, based on the historic parameter indications, generates a future parameter trend for the atmosphere and filter use. The system also includes a predicted capacity estimator that, based on the adsorption estimate, and based on the future parameter trend, generates a predicted capacity estimate. The system also includes a signal generator that generates a signal if either the estimated capacity or the predicted capacity estimate is above a threshold.
