A method of processing information in a tire pressure monitoring system includes the steps of: establishing a reference temperature; determining a pressure warning threshold at the reference temperature; measuring gauge pressure and gauge temperature within a tire cavity; correcting the gauge pressure to a filtered pressure value at the reference temperature using the Ideal Gas Law; and comparing the filtered pressure value against the pressure warning threshold to determine the necessity for a warning signal. In an advanced form of the invention, the method includes determining a pressure leak rate; predicting the time interval that the filtered pressure value will cross the pressure warning threshold at the leak rate and generating progressive warnings to the driver over the time interval. Fuzzy logic is used to quantify the probability of a warning state for each data point, allow for measurement error; and report the state of maximum probability to minimize the occurrence of false warning. A warning utility function is derived based upon a combination of the filtered pressure and leak rate.

A fluid dispensing system provides a non-contact method of monitoring the change in the fluid volume over time. This approach avoids the use of probes or sensors that come into direct contact with the fluid to be dispensed. The system comprises an apparatus comprising three chambers. The first chamber has a fixed volume and contains a pressurized gas. A solenoid valve is used to control the flow of gas from the first chamber into the second. The second chamber is sealed so that the combined mass of air in the first and second chambers remains fixed. The third chamber is adjacent to the second and contains medication in the form of incompressible fluid that is to be administered to a human or animal subject via a suitable delivery port. A piston is disposed between the second and third chambers and is movable responsive to the flow of gas into the second chamber to dispense fluid from the third chamber as desired. By sensing the pressure in the first and second chambers at any point in time, a processor is programmed to calculate the flow rate or dispensed volume of the fluid being delivered using principles derived from the Ideal Gas Law.

The invention relates to a 4K regenerative type low-temperature refrigerating machine by the adoption of an ultrasonic atomization device. The refrigerating machine comprises a first-stage compressor, a liquid helium temperature zone regenerative type low-temperature refrigerating machine body and the ultrasonic atomization device. When a refrigerating working medium (helium-4) is located at a low-temperature zone below 20 K, the performance of the helium-4 is closer to liquid in a condensed state because attraction among molecules is remarkably increased, so that pressure enthalpy loss, irreversible regenerative loss and heat conduction loss in a regenerator are increased rapidly, meanwhile, the expansion efficiency of the helium is reduced, and loss caused by an actual gas effect is gradually increased. Therefore, the key is how to decrease the loss caused by the actual gas effect in order to improve the efficiency of the regenerative type low-temperature pulse tube refrigerating machine at a liquid helium temperature zone.
