    Abstract: Predictive cooking systems and methods. A representative system can include a cooking device submergible in a container of fluid and a memory device storing instructions for causing a processor to receive information and determine heater set point temperature and on time. The processor can receive information indicative of one or more characteristics of a food item to be cooked in the fluid and a desired food temperature. The processor can perform a control process that can include sending instructions for controlling a heater, obtaining a temperature measurement of the fluid from a temperature sensor, determining a measurement of power delivered to the heater, determining constants related to corresponding physical characteristics of the fluid and/or the container based on at least one of the temperature measurement and the measurement of power, and determining a food temperature of the food item.

    Abstract: A supply heat quantity estimating method includes: estimating a change in carried-out sensible heat by in-furnace passing gas and a change in carried-in sensible heat supplied by a raw material preheated by the in-furnace passing gas, and estimating a quantity of heat supplied to the pig iron in a blast furnace in consideration of the estimated changes in the carried-out sensible heat and carried-in sensible heat. The estimating includes: estimating the carried-out sensible heat in consideration of the quantity of heat released to an outside, and estimating the change in the carried-in sensible heat in consideration of a change in a surface height of the raw material; and estimating a quantity of heat held in a deadman coke, and estimating the quantity of heat supplied to the pig iron in the blast furnace in consideration of the estimated quantity of heat held in the deadman coke.

    Abstract: A heat flux temperature sensor probe includes a first mineral-insulated cable portion and a second mineral-insulated cable portion. The first mineral-insulated cable portion has a first metallic sheath, a first plurality of thermocouple conductors extending therein, and an inorganic insulative material insulating the first plurality of thermocouple conductors from one another and from the first metallic sheath. The second mineral-insulated cable portion has a second metallic sheath, a second plurality of thermocouple conductors extending therein, and an inorganic insulative material insulating the second plurality of thermocouple conductors from one another and from the second metallic sheath. A first thermocouple is formed between at least one of the first plurality of thermocouple conductors and one of the second plurality of thermocouple conductors proximate a first end of the second mineral-insulated cable portion. A second thermocouple is formed between at least two of the second plurality of thermocouple conductors proximate a second end of the second mineral-insulated cable. A sheath is operably coupled to and connects the first and second mineral insulated cable portions, a portion of an interior of the sheath is filled with a non-conductive material.

    Abstract: A system for monitoring and calculating the energy saving and reduction of CO2 emission applied to an element provided with an insulation system. The system comprises an electronic device, an input module, and an output module. The device is adapted to receive from the input module input parameters characterizing the scenario of application related to the element and insulation system, and data measured by sensors integrated into the input module. The electronic device is adapted to calculate the energy saving as the difference between the dispersed heat of the element devoid of insulation and the dispersed heat of the element with the insulator and it is adapted to calculate the energy saving and reduction of the emission of CO2 multiplying the energy saving obtained by a “g” factor of carbon dioxide emissions from gross thermoelectric fuel production. Lastly, the output module comprises storage means adapted to store the measured data and displaying means adapted to display, in numerical and graphic form, the results of the processing of the measured data.

    Abstract: A nanocalorimeter device includes a substrate having test cells, each test cell comprising a sample location. Each sample location includes a reaction surface suitable for an enthalpic reaction of constituents of liquid droplets, droplet movement and configured to merge the droplets, and a layer of thermochromic material thermally coupled to the reaction surface. The thermochromic material is configured to exhibit a spectral shift in light emanating from the thermochromic material in response to a change in temperature of the merged droplets.
