    摘要: A normal refueling mode, in which refueling is detected when the vehicle is at or below a predetermined vehicle speed and when the vehicle is at a slight stop, and a small amount refueling mode for detecting refueling in a strong stopped state in which the vehicle is determined to be stationary based on the detection result of the shift position sensor and a vehicle speed at or below a predetermined speed, are provided, and the meter ECU performs mode switching control. Then, the remaining amount of fuel is detected by the fuel gauge with different resolutions in the normal refueling mode and the small amount refueling mode, and the remaining amount of fuel is displayed.

    摘要: A method of estimating fluid in a steam generation system includes periodically determining steam flow rates and drainage flow rates to accurately estimate fluid levels. The method includes determining a first steam flow rate of a steam generator. Before a present steam cycle, determine a starting quantity of liquid in one or more liquid reservoirs. During a present steam cycle, determine a quantity of liquid remaining in the one or more liquid reservoirs by determining a time the steam generator injected steam and multiplying the time by the first steam flow rate. Based on the first steam flow rate, determine a time remaining before the quantity of liquid remaining in the one or more liquid reservoirs is below a threshold and the one or more liquid reservoirs needs to be refilled. With the drain flow rate, the steam generation system can be emptied with minimized dry cycle duration.

    摘要: A system for liquid level monitoring is provided. The system may include one or more rovers configured for placement on a surface of a body of liquid, a base configured for fixed placement on land, and one or more processors configured to determine one or more liquid levels of the body of liquid. The system may also include a remote server communicatively coupled to one or more components of the system via a network. The system may be further configured to display data associated with the one or more liquid levels.

    摘要: A liquid level sensor 1 comprises a sleeve 2 disposed so as to extend in the vertical direction, a float 3 configured so as to move along said sleeve according to fluctuation of liquid level, a resistor string 4, a plurality of grounding means 5 disposed inside the sleeve 2 and a liquid level signal output means 6 to take out an electric signal detected between a positive electrode side end part 4a and a junction part grounded by the grounding means 5 as a liquid level signal that is a signal corresponding to the liquid level, and further comprises a warning signal output means 7 to output a warning signal when the float 3 is located within a predetermined distance from a warning position that is a predetermined position within a movable range of the float 3. Thereby, a compact and reliable liquid level sensor is realized.

    摘要: The present disclosure generally relates to liquid level meter, and more particularly, to a flexible multi liquid level measurement apparatus and method. There is a vast need in industry and water resource management to measure level of liquid in arbitrary shaped well and in tank contained more than one liquid. Ordinary methods are not capable to determine liquid level in said cases. This disclosure proposes a liquid level meter (910) which measurement apparatus (905) is flexible. The apparatus is capable to measure liquid level in an arbitrary shape well or tank (900) where the well or tank has filled with more than one liquid (915,920,925). The measurement apparatus and method disclosed here is completely digital at inventive subject matter level and doesn't affect by environmental noises and conditions.

    摘要: A water level detection method via video recognition, includes steps of obtaining an image of a water level gauge from a camera; wherein the water level gauge includes multiple two-dimensional barcodes; and determining a water level according to the two-dimensional barcodes. When a body of water partly covers the water level gauge, the body of water would cover some of the two-dimensional barcodes, leaving the rest of visible two-dimensional barcodes corresponding to the water level. When the water is clear, the two-dimensional barcodes underwater would be visible yet at the same time indecipherable due to distorted barcode scales. This way, the present invention is able to avoid accidentally counting two-dimensional barcodes underwater, and thus more accurately and robustly detect water levels.
