    摘要: An apparatus and method for real-time in-situ simultaneous measurement of temperature and mechanical parameters can include a charge type vibration sensing module having a temperature compensation function and a temperature/vibration coplanarly-integrated wireless surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensing module are controlled by a processing module in which a full-range temperature-vibration composite parameter compensation decoupling method is implanted, which can detect a vibration signal in a variable temperature environment. Moreover, temperature and vibration multi-parameter testing of static components in a high-temperature, narrow and closed environment can be implemented by arranging the charge type vibration sensing module having a temperature compensation function, and the temperature/vibration coplanarly-integrated wireless SAW sensing module implements health monitoring of moving components in a high-temperature and high-rotation environment.

    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method for producing a temperature exposure indicator is disclosed. The temperature exposure indicator includes a substrate and a mixture containing a first thermochromic material and a second thermochromic material. Each thermochromic material has an initial color state when the mixture is in a base temperature range and each thermochromic material is configured to change to an excursion color state at a certain temperature threshold. As a result, the mixture displays a low mixture excursion color state below a low temperature threshold and a high mixture excursion color state above a high temperature threshold.

    摘要: The present invention provides an apparatus capable of measuring a deposition status, such as a plating deposition rate, even during a plating process in a plating tank. A controller 20 controls a plating solution introduction mechanism 6 to introduce a plating solution in a plating tank 2 into a reaction container 4. By the introduced plating solution, a metal film is deposited on a deposition member 12 provided in the reaction container 4. Next, metal film dissolution control means 24 of the controller 20 controls an etching solution introduction mechanism 8 to introduce an etching solution into the reaction container 4 instead of the plating solution. The introduced etching solution dissolves the metal film deposited on the deposition member 12. A measurement equipment 10 measures a metal concentration-related value (metal concentration or a metal concentration-related value) of the post-processing etching solution in which the metal film is dissolved. Estimation means 26 of the controller 20 estimates the deposition status, such as the plating deposition rate, in the plating tank 2 on the basis of the metal concentration-related value measured by the measurement equipment 10.

    摘要: A post-harvest crop management platform is provided for regulating conditions of an agricultural crop being dried and/or stored. The platform utilizes data collected from sensors positioned proximate to, or embedded within, an agricultural crop, and analyzes selected crop characteristics affecting the stored crop in multiple sections thereof. The platform identifies parameters relative to achieving a desired crop characteristic level in the agricultural crop, generates a profile of the selected crop characteristic across the multiple sections of the stored crop, and models an application of a fluid flow pattern to achieve the desired crop characteristic level in each section. The crop storage monitoring and management platform also actuates a multi-stack assembly, configured within the stored crop, to automatically apply the fluid flow pattern in one or more cycles that are adjustable to changing conditions within the stored crop in real time. The crop storage monitoring and management platform further integrates with, and connects to and communicates with, other systems within an autonomous field activity ecosystem.

    摘要: An airtightness testing apparatus includes a differential pressure gauge and a temperature measuring device. The differential pressure gauge measures a differential pressure between the pressure of a fluid in a refrigerant pipe in an air-conditioning apparatus and that in an airtight reference container. The temperature measuring device is connected with the refrigerant pipe to measure the temperature of the fluid therein, and includes a temperature measurement container and a temperature acquisition module. The temperature measurement container communicates with the refrigerant pipe, and can contain the fluid while being sealed. The temperature acquisition module is provided in the temperature measurement container and measures the temperature of the fluid. The temperature measurement container satisfies one or both of a condition that its thermal diffusivity is higher than or equal to that of the refrigerant pipe and a condition that its thermal conductivity is higher than or equal to that of the pipe.
