US Patent:

20120303156, Nov 29, 2012

Filed:

May 24, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/068940

Inventors:

Hazem Nizar An Nashif - Oakland CA, US
Thomas Frederick Brady - Chattanooga TN, US

International Classification:

G06F 7/00

US Classification:

700216

Abstract:

The cartonization process in a distribution center can be modified to account for factors which influence the efficiency with which the products distributed from the distribution center can be stocked onto store shelves, such as layout (i.e., planogram) information indicating where the various products will actually be located in a store.

Inventors:

- Jacksonville FL, US
Thomas Brady - Oak Brook IL, US

International Classification:

F02C 3/30

Abstract:

A method and system for enhancing power generated by a gas turbine system. The system may include a turbine inlet cooling system and a wet compression air fogging system. Air entering the gas turbine system is cooled by the turbine inlet cooling system and the wet compression air fogging system. The wet compression air fogging system may increase the mass flow rate of the air entering the gas turbine system at the compressor.

International Classification:

F02C 7/141
F02C 7/057
F02C 7/143

Abstract:

Embodiments provide a method and apparatus to lower the temperature and heat content of the ambient air at the inlet to a gas combustion turbine to enhance power generation. Embodiments can use multiple, staged direct contact air chillers, variable flow secondary water chilling systems, constant flow primary water chilling systems with water chilling units arranged for parallel chilled water flow, and a coolant water circulation system used for heat rejection with open cooling towers. Alternatives can use a chilled water thermal storage system, and/or waste heat to drive at least part of the water chilling process. With the included apparatus a method to allow adiabatic air chilling is available for operation during periods of lower ambient air conditions when needs for power augmentation may not be as great.
