20140251004 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FLOW MEASUREMENT - A method for determining flow in a medium, comprising applying thermal energy to at least one probe of a pair of probes, the probes configured for placement in the medium and varying the applied thermal energy of the at least one probe to maintain a constant temperature differential between the pair of probes and determining a flow from the applied thermal energy while maintaining the constant temperature differential. | 09-11-2014 |
20110278066 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING SENSOR RESPONSE DATA AND POWER THROUGH A MUD MOTOR - Apparatus and methods for establishing electrical communication between an instrument subsection disposed below a mud motor and an electronics sonde disposed above the mud motor in a drill string conveyed borehole logging system. Electrical communication is established via at least one conductor disposed within the mud motor and connecting the instrument sub section to a link disposed between the mud motor and the electronics sonde. The link can be embodied as a current coupling link, a magnetic coupling ling, an electromagnetic telemetry ling and a direct electrical contact link. Two way data transfer is established in all link embodiments. Power transfer is also established in all but the electromagnetic telemetry link. | 11-17-2011 |
