Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a rotor brake control system includes a temperature sensor operable to measure an operating temperature of a rotor brake and a rotor brake control unit operable to instruct a caliper to adjust, based on the measured operating temperature, an amount of friction generated between a brake pad and the rotor brake.

According to one embodiment, a rotor break includes a first braking surface having an opening therethrough, a second braking surface adjacent to the first braking surface, and an impeller disposed between the first and second braking surfaces such that rotation of the impeller pulls fluid through the opening of the first braking surface and expels the fluid out through a gap between the first and second braking surfaces.

Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a condensation control system features a dew point analyzer, a fluid system, and a condensation control engine. The dew point analyzer provides a dew point temperature measurement of environmental conditions outside a fluid line having a refrigerant flowing therein. The fluid system provides a flow of insulating fluid to an insulation chamber at least partially separating the fluid line from environmental conditions outside the fluid line. The condensation control engine instructs the fluid system to provide the flow of insulating fluid to the insulation chamber at a temperature such that the temperature of the insulating fluid exiting the insulation chamber is greater than the dew point temperature measurement.
