Filed:

Mar 15, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/686777

Inventors:

Joseph S. Howard - Chandler AZ, US
Andrew D. Stramiello - Mesa AZ, US

Assignee:

HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL, INC. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G01M 17/00

US Classification:

701 29

Abstract:

A method for diagnosing potential faults reflected in operational data for a turbine engine includes the steps of generating a diagnostic pattern for the operational data and comparing the diagnostic pattern with a plurality of historical patterns, to thereby identify one or more likely potential faults reflected in the operational data. The diagnostic pattern comprises a plurality of scalars. Each scalar represents an arithmetic relationship between values of the operational data and values predicted by a baseline thermodynamic model. Each historical pattern is linked to one or more specific faults.

Abstract:

A disposable undergarment is disclosed. The undergarment includes a chassis and an absorbent core assembly. The chassis includes a front section, a crotch section and a rear section and elastic threads in those sections. The absorbent core is located in the crotch section, with portions of it extending into the front and rear sections. The core assembly includes a first or upper section of including plural pockets of a free slow acting but high absorbency SAP, and a second or underlying second section including plural pockets of a free fast acting by lower absorbency SAP. The SAP of the upper and lower sections exhibits various characteristics to facilitate to effective and efficient absorption of a fluid insult into the core assembly.

Abstract:

A disposable undergarment is disclosed. The undergarment includes a chassis and an absorbent core assembly. The chassis includes a front section, a crotch section and a rear section. The absorbent core is located in the crotch section, with portions of it extending into the front and rear sections. A large plurality of closely spaced elastic threads extends across the full width of the undergarment in the front and rear sections. A large plurality of closely spaced elastic threads extends across the full width of the undergarment in portions of the crotch section adjacent the front and rear sections. The elastic threads are broken in the areas of the core assembly. The core assembly includes a first section of a slow acting but high absorbency SAP in pockets thereof and an underlying second section of a fast acting by lower absorbency SAP in pockets thereof.

Abstract:

An absorbent core assembly for use in a product for absorbing a liquid is disclosed. The core assembly has a first section and a second section. The first section is a quilted porous material that contains a slow acting but high absorption capacity SAP therein. The, second section is a quilted porous material that contains a fast acting but lower absorption capacity SAP therein. The first and second sections are in fluid communication with each other, whereupon a liquid which is exposed to the core assembly flows through the first section to the fast acting SAP in the second section to be absorbed quickly and rapidly by the fast acting SAP therein, while the slow acting SAP desorbs or takes liquid away from the fast acting SAP as well as absorbing the liquid itself to thereby trap the liquid in the core assembly.
