摘要:
Load actuating servomechanism apparatus includes dynamic regeneration to equalize and overcome a frequency-varying load/load drive train mechanical resonance. The drive circuitry comprises a per se conventional primary motor speed controlling rate feedback loop including a cascaded rate signal command source, summing error-signal producing node, and loop frequency response shaping filter and driver amplifier for exciting a load driving motor, and a rate tachometer signal feedback element connecting a measure of the motor output speed to a subtractive input of the summing node.To broaden the response band of the primary feedback circuit and accommodate a mechanical resonance otherwise interfering therewith, a secondary, positive feedback path supplements the input rate command with a signal dependent upon motor current, and thus upon motor load. Accordingly, output load drive automatically increases as motor current increases when a load drive retarding mechanical resonance is encountered.

A rate-control servomechanism includes a load driving motor and a tachometer mounted on the motor shaft to produce a feedback signal hich corresponds to the rotational speed of the motor. An additional signal corresponding to the motor current is added to the tachometer feedback signal to compensate for the resonance-like effects resulting from the inductive coupling between the motor and tachometer windings.

A ballast circuit for a gaseous discharge lamp, particularly a neon light, includes a diode bridge rectifier for producing a d-c voltage from an a-c input and a transformer with a secondary winding connected to the lamp and a primary winding connected to the rectifier. A switching circuit is connected to the transformer primary winding for controlling a flow of current therethrough from the rectifier. The switching circuit includes at least one MOSFET having a drain terminal connected to the transformer primary winding and a grounded source terminal. A control circuit is connected to a gate terminal of the MOSFET for controlling the on and off times thereof, the control circuit including a pulse generator for producing a train of pulse-width-modulated rectangular pulses of substantially a single frequency fed to the MOSFET's gate terminal. The pulse generator includes circuitry for changing the width of the rectangular pulses to enable a gradual energization of the gaseous discharge lamp from one end thereof towards an opposite end to create a writing effect of selectively different speeds in the gaseous discharge lamp. The circuitry in the pulse generator for changing the pulse width can be used to control the widths of the pulses so that the pulses are a train of square waves having a common duration equal to an interpulse period, whereby striations are generated in the gaseous discharge lamp.

Methods and systems are disclosed for using time domain reflectometry to determine the identity of a fluid in a vessel, and to determine whether the quality of a fluid in a vessel is within acceptable parameters. Methods include identifying a fluid by comparing a derived characteristic of a fluid to a reference characteristic, determining the quality of a fluid by determining if a derived characteristic is within an acceptable quality range, monitoring a fluid for a dynamic change in quality or state, and identifying a fluid by comparing a transition reflection waveform to a reference signature transition. The methods are implemented in systems for identifying a fluid layer in a vessel, such as fuel, free liquid water or ice, detecting misfueling or fuel contamination, and detecting fluid state changes, such as the formation of ice.
