Cloud Water Characterization System

View page
US Patent:
8521431, Aug 27, 2013
Filed:
Jul 29, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/136352
Inventors:
Lyle E. Lilie - Ashford CT, US
Christopher P. Sivo - Ellington CT, US
Daniel B. Bouley - Columbia CT, US
Assignee:
Science Engineering Associates, Inc. - Mansfield Center CT
International Classification:
G01W 1/00
US Classification:
702 3
Abstract:
A system and method for indicating the presence of ice water. The system includes a first sensor responsive to liquid water and ice water and a second sensor responsive to liquid water, power sources having output powers responsive to changes in the liquid water and the ice water contacting the respective sensors. A processor determines a first measure indicative of the ice water and the liquid water contacting the first sensor, determines a second measure indicative of liquid water contacting the second sensor and subtracts the second measure from the first measure to indicate a presence of the ice water.

US Patent:
20070161878, Jul 12, 2007
Filed:
Jan 11, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/329894
Inventors:
Lyle Lilie - Ashford CT, US
Christopher Sivo - Ellington CT, US
Daniel Bouley - Columbia CT, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
A61B 5/05
US Classification:
600345000, 600309000, 600354000
Abstract:
A system and method for providing a statistical measure of the size of liquid water droplets in a cloud, as well as a system and method for the detection and/or measurement of the presence of a cloud, liquid water content in the cloud and ice water content in the cloud, among other parameters.

US Patent:
20140007654, Jan 9, 2014
Filed:
Jul 6, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/543253
Inventors:
Lyle E. Lilie - Ashford CT, US
Christopher P. Sivo - Ellington CT, US
Daniel B. Bouley - Stafford Springs CT, US
International Classification:
G01N 25/00
US Classification:
73 2505
Abstract:
A system for detecting the presence of ice crystals in a cloud comprising two thin walled semicylinder-shaped sensors, one having a concave inner surface and oriented longitudinally in a leading edge of an airfoil and the other having a convex outer surface being oriented longitudinally in the leading edge of the airfoil so that cloud water flows towards and into contact with the convex outer surface; a temperature controlling arrangement for heating the two sensors and maintaining them at a substantially constant temperature; and a comparison arrangement for finding a difference between (i) a power to maintain the temperature of the first sensor at its substantially constant temperature (ii) a power to maintain the temperature of the second sensor at its substantially constant temperature; and comparing the difference of the powers to a threshold value for evidencing the presence or predetermined amount of ice in the cloud water.
