Automatic Windshield Wiper
Automatic Windshield Wiper
@dknisely | October 28, 2017,
" . . . But, they obviously don't care much about the piddly number of MS/MX diehard fans . . . "
I do not understand how a demo would have no bearing on FSD. Elon has said HW2 Model Ss have all the required hardware, and if the demo uses that hardware and Tesla on-board software, I would think product release would follow quickly.
I sure hope that you are wrong. Full Self Driving and Tesla's mission statement about the environment are the only reasons we scraped together most everything we have to buy our Model S and prepay for FSD. I'm close to 80, and sensed that to be semi-independent, FSD is probably a requirement soon. We live in a very rural area with no access to public transportation and no Uber services. We figured the Model S would be our last car.
We had a test drive before making the purchase decision. I read the Model S manual to ensure everything was in place. Being new to Tesla, I read and believed Elon Musk's statements and believed the sales people's FSD time projections. During our test drive we did not realize, and were not told, the difference between HW1 and HW2 - yadda, yadda, yadda. I now realize that Elon Musk compulsively lies and it's too late to do anything for us to recover. We probably should have used the Tesla money to move instead of trusting Tesla.
This is very depressing. I apologize for venting about what is clearly my (and a first world) problem.
I think Tesla cares very much about S/X customers and would love to have FSD available today. It would be a huge advantage over the competition and drive sales to new levels. The free press alone is worth $100M or more.
Google has been demoing FSD for years, yet it still is not ready for production. While I hope it doesn't take years, Tesla could do a major FSD demo and still take 1-2 more years to put FSD into production. And a demo like this could easily require the driver to turn on the wipers if needed - it's a demo, not a released product. Having it work for 99% of the cases is hard, making it work for 99.99% of the cases is exceptionally hard. It's those rare corner cases that requires a massive amount of work and testing. And it can't be released until that work is done, but a demo could be done far earlier in the process. You just hope you don't run into one of those rare corner cases.
To me this is very exciting. This is a overcoming a massively complex task, that no one has been able to put into production yet. I hope Tesla continues to be the leader, but I'm also ok if someone else gets their first. Tesla has accelerated the entire autonomous driving industry. Without Tesla, I bet the competition would barely be considering it at this time.
On the Technical side, it appears Tesla has made a significant progress on AP2 with .42 that from most owners in other threads feels exceeds AP1. Internally there appear a significant structural change, almost as if they re-wrote a core component from scratch, dumping the older design.
@TeslaTap.com | October 29, 2017,
" . . . take 1-2 more years to put FSD into production. . . . "
Thanks for your take as a cheerleader. (No pejorative intent on my use of "cheerleader," only my observation.) I understand that those of you who adopted early understand that Tesla's time estimates are always gross exaggerations and meaningless, and you have adjusted expectations with your experience. Some of us newcomers believed the Tesla statements. Your view of the future will be appreciated.
Have you prepaid for FSD on your Model S?
What is your date estimate for when the LA to NYC FSD demo will happen?
Are you willing to to wager the cost of the Tesla, for which I have paid in full, that Full Self Driving will be available for the HW2 Model S I have in the year 2020 or earlier?
Do Tesla customers, in general, understand that the earliest FSD will become available is sometime in the year 2020?
TeslaTap.com | October 29, 2017
Tesla could do a major FSD demo .....And a demo like this could easily require the driver to turn on the wipers if needed.
@TT Please stop these intellectually dishonest exaggerations. You are describing SAE Level 2 NOT SAE Level 5 (FSD) where the car must drive itself without human intervention.
You also have acknowledge that Tesla does not have steering redundancy but fail to grasp the concept that it will be required for government approval of Level 5 FSD. You responses are naïve and clearly demonstrate you have NO knowledge in Systems Engineering and Analysis.
Your straw-man exaggerations have worn thin.
The difference in complexity between EAP and FSD is similar to the difference in complexity between a feature phone from 1998 and a smart phone in 2017.
From FSD perspective, we are still in 1998. In reality, Tesla will redefine FSD as a slightly better version of EAP which can read signs and recognize traffic lights and declare victory.
I strongly recommend the latest episode of The Tesla Show podcast, which delves into what the autonomous driving levels really mean, and how they are fraught with peril and also have built into them limitations that will assure most customers won't be getting quite what the term "Full Self Driving" implies.
The first coast-to-coast demo will be impressive, but it will be supervised, and 99.9% of the miles will be highway. They can also launch the attempt 100 or 1,000 times, and only release the sped-up youtube video for the one that succeeds. We won't have "FSD" until you can launch 100,000 city-city trips that all succeed, and 1,000,000 or 10,000,000 point-to-point trips within cities that almost all succeed without intervention.
Don't get me wrong - if Elon can deliver L4 for a useful set of highway cases (e.g., west coast and east coast highway routes and maybe one or two paths across the country) in 90% of driving conditions with AP2-type hardware, that will be AMAZING and will exceed my expectations for my late 2016 MS. Of course, I also want SOLID and SAFE L2 for many conditions where the resulting me + EAP solution is much safer than I am alone. I mostly agree with the podcast that L3 is a dangerous no-person's-land to be avoided entirely.
I wish that the rain sensing wipers really worked. My MB had them and they were great. With the wiper stalk in the Model S & X Tesla's being an actual MB part (sourced by Tesla from MB), I had hoped that the Tesla wipers would be as good. My solution is to use Aquapel, an rainex type product developed by PPG (a glass manufacturer) to shed the water off. It works well, lasts a long time, and is not that expensive on Amazon.
Surprised this never got bumped now that it's been implemented couple weeks ago.

ASHBURNHAM — Seven innings of baseball was not enough to decide a winner in Thursday's Senior Montachusett Babe Ruth League game between Westminster and visiting Pepperell.
ASHBURNHAM — Seven innings of baseball was not enough to decide a winner in Thursday's Senior Montachusett Babe Ruth League game between Westminster and visiting Pepperell.
Going into extra innings was not an option either as darkness started to set in at Oakmont Regional High School's Dennis Driscoll Park, so the 2-2 tie between the two teams will pick up where it left off when the teams meet again on Tuesday, July 19 for their regularly scheduled game.
"When we play them again at home we'll try to start a little bit earlier and win a doubleheader," said Westminster manager Keith Wiley.
Westminster (2-5) faced a 2-0 deficit before tying things up with single runs in the fourth and fifth innings.
Greg Mattson started the bottom of the fourth off with a walk, stole second, moved to third on a wild pitch and put Westminster on the board when he scored on a suicide squeeze bunt by Connor O'Brien.
Westminster tied the game in the fifth and a bit of bad luck cost the team even more runs. Colin Murchie beat out an infield single and Jimmy Concannon drew a walk to put the first two runners on base. After Pepperell hurler Brenden Sullivan got Corey Dandy to fly out to left field, Justin Nailor sent a shot into the left-center field gap which would have easily scored both Murchie and Concannon had it not took a big hop over the fence and into the turf field.
Nailor's ground-rule double sent Concannon back to third and Westminster could not do any more damage despite having two runners in scoring position with only one out.
Cody Walter, who came on in relief of Nailor with one down in the top of the fourth, did not allow a run and surrendered just two hits in 3 2/3 solid innings on the mound to give Westminster a chance to get back into the game.
"I've coached Cody for five years straight and the kid always plays as hard as he can," said Wiley. "He's always around the plate and that's why I brought him in."
Westminster had a golden opportunity to end the game in the bottom of the seventh when Murchie was hit by a pitch and Concannon walked to put the first two runners on base.
Instead, it was a pair of baserunning mistakes that kept the game deadlocked. Murchie was caught stealing third after Dandy pulled out of his attempt at a sacrifice bunt. Concannon was also caught between the base paths on another bunt attempt despite the fact that there were two outs. Concannon was eventually tagged out at the plate by Sullivan.
"It was a good game to come back against a team that we know is better than us," Wiley said. "They beat us last time and just to get the opportunity in the seventh was fun, but we made a couple mistakes. If we didn't make those mistakes who knows what would have happened?"
Pepperell (5-2) jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the third with the help of a pair of throwing errors by Westminster. Ryan MacDonald's infield single was the only hit allowed by Nailor, but he scored the first run when the throw to get him trying to steal third base sailed into left field.
Sullivan, who was hit by a pitch following MacDonald's infield single, later scored on a sacrifice fly to center hit by Brendan Twomey.
Wiley said after the game that the two throwing errors in the third inning spoiled a pretty solid effort by his two pitchers.
"We threw the ball around a little bit and I think that was our downfall right there," he said, "because we had some good pitching and some good hits."
Nailor gave up two runs, only one of which was earned, on just the one infield single in 3 1/3 innings. He struck out three, walked six and hit a batter.
Sullivan was sharp for the visitors, allowing just the two runs on five hits to go along with seven strikeouts, four walks and a hit batsman.
While last night's game will be resumed in a little less than two weeks, the busy summer season continues on Sunday when Westminster travels to Leominster and Pepperell heads to Quabbin Regional High School to take on Barre.

the UNITED states has suddenly started to support Israel's settlements in the west bank, and it does not do any good for the peace process in the region.
It takes the Danish foreign minister, Jeppe Kofod (S), after that his american colleague, Mike Pompeo, announced kursskiftet on Monday night.
The u.s. announcement is unfortunately bad news for the peace process.
- It weakens the prospects for an early resumption of meaningful peace talks, says Jeppe Kofod in a written comment.
Monday night's announcement from Mike Pompeo is a significant change in relation to the assessment, as the u.s. state department made in 1978.
Here it was established that Israel's settlements in the occupied west bank are not in accordance with international law.
The assessment has been an important cornerstone of the u.s. policy in the Middle east in the last 40 years.
In the rest of the world, there is a broad consensus that israeli settlements are in violation of international law, and constitute a major obstacle to peace between israelis and palestinians.
Also the Danish foreign minister continues to denounce the israeli settlements in the west bank.
- The Danish position is clear and unchanged and is fully in line with the EU-the circle.
- We consider all israeli settlements in the west bank and in the Golan as illegal under international law, says Jeppe Kofod.
the foreign Minister says that Denmark will continue to support the possibilities for a negotiated two-state solution.
- It is the only realistic and sustainable way to solve the dispute, he says.
Monday's announcement from Mike Pompeo was immediately greeted with joy in Israel.
The israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, said that the UNITED states's decision "corrects a historic wrongs". He called on other countries to do the same as the UNITED states.
by Contrast, said a spokesman for the head of the palestinian autonomy, Mahmoud Abbas, that the UNITED states'switch is 'totally in violation of international law'.

A record number of Hillsdale College students traveled more than 500 miles last week to Washington, D.C., to participate in the national March for Life. The annual anti-abortion protest drew a crowd of hundreds of thousands, according to reports.
Hillsdale College for Life faculty advisor and Professor of German Fred Yaniga said more than 140 Hillsdale students filled three coach buses last Thursday night for the eleven-hour, overnight trip. Yaniga also said in his eight years of attending the March for Life, this year's crowd was the largest he's witnessed.
The theme the March for Life adopted this year was "Unique from Day One," and the slogan Hillsdale College for Life embraced was "Pro-Life is Pro-Science."
"This message reinforces the fact that human life begins from the time of conception, from day one," senior Kathleen Russo, president of Hillsdale College for Life said. "On day one of conception, a baby has its own, one-of-a-kind DNA. Hillsdale is all about the pursuit of truth, and this year's theme aimed to do just that."
Vice President Mike Pence along with his wife, Karen Pence, addressed the marchers prior to the demonstration, and famed political commentator Ben Shapiro joined members of congress from both the Republican and Democratic parties in giving speeches. President Donald Trump delivered a pre-recorded message to the crowd on the digital screen at the rally.
Pence called Trump "the most pro-life president in American history" during his speech, while Trump vowed to veto any bill Congress passes that "weakens the protection of human life."
Despite support from the White House, it is unclear how many advances the pro-life platform will make in terms of legislation in the coming congressional year. The political power among federal lawmakers is split, with Democrats in control of the House of Representatives and Republicans in control of the U.S. Senate.
"I sense a steady pressure mounting on lawmakers to put into place regulations which will restrict abortion more and more," Yaniga said. "I had a number of conversations with people at the march who were concerned about the possibility of quick changes being difficult to maintain. Our society is still largely divided on basic issues in this discussion."
Sophomore Megan Kerr, who attended the march with Hillsdale College for Life and has canvassed for the pro-life organization Susan B. Anthony list in the past, pointed to the state of the federal judiciary as a reason for optimism.
"I think that we are in a great position of influence with a more pro-life Supreme Court, a pro-life president, and a majority in the Senate," Kerr said. "I'm hopeful that we can keep passing more legislation to protect the unborn, such as the Title X rule change."
The Trump administration's Title X proposal would block federal taxpayer dollars from going toward organizations that perform abortions, such as Planned Parenthood.
Yaniga said in addition to advocating for protecting unborn children, he would like to see the pro-life movement take a "philosophical approach to the dignity of human life at all stages."
"Developing a culture of life in this country and in this world will depend on teaching with conviction that all human lives have intrinsic value which cannot be extinguished, stripped, taken away. Babies are beautiful and easy enough to defend," Yaniga said. "Defending the lives of others is less popular and more challenging, but absolutely necessary lest we begin to allow governments, institutions, or individuals to make choices about which people are worthy of life."
Kerr also mentioned the value in advocating for life at all stages, born and unborn. She added that the protest was done in peace and with love.
"We want to exercise our rights to free speech and assembly, but we also see how radicals get so carried away in violence and suggestive behavior," Kerr said. "We want to do the complete opposite. We want to come in peace and show our love for babies, for the terminally ill, for all life."

Today, I came to Qionglai Tiantai Mountain to see fireflies. Who knows that I was happy all the way. As a result, I arrived at Zhengtiantai archway, where the accommodation and the employer's first-class service attitude were poor. The house price was not mentioned. There was no morning for a single room. The problem was that the employer's attitude was totally not that he wanted to have repeat visitors and eat more than 800 meals. It was just a pit dad! If you don't want the trip to be unhappy, I would advise you to stay away from this black spot. Everywhere is good, but this store makes me frustrated.
The scenery is well built. There is a large waterfall and it feels very comfortable. You can walk up or drive up to Bailongdu. The route and scenery are different from those of Bailongdu. Generally speaking, one-day tour is more suitable. At the end of June and the beginning of July, there are many fireflies. Thank you!
Water beauty, this is the first feeling to Tiantai Mountain. Along the way, there are places to play with water, and the bottom of the water is basically rock, unlike other places where the bottom of the water is sandstone and feet. The water is clear and the spring is sweet. Unfortunately, it was a little late. I couldn't swim in the water and watch fireflies at night.
The temperature of Tiantai Mountain is suitable. It's not cold or hot. When I went, the light rain just passed. The Road on the bluestone slab was wet. The stream was clear. The Road on the bluestone slab was full of fallen flowers. The pink petals were very conspicuous and beautiful on the green road. The wax ribs and potatoes on the mountain are also delicious!
Tiantai Mountain has beautiful scenery, good air, cool summer and a good place for vacation. In July, I also saw a lot of fireflies. They were very beautiful in the night. They lived in the Mill Villa on the mountain. The owners and women were very good. The rooms were clean and sanitary. The meals were also very fragrant. The key was not expensive.
The temperature difference between morning and evening is very large in summer resorts. Tiantai Mountain has profound historical and cultural connotations. As early as ancient times, Tiantai Mountain in Bashu was the place where the ancient "Qiong" people lived and multiplied. In the time of flood and famine in ancient times, when Dayu was passing through Shu State, he chose this mountain as a platform for celebrating the heavens, so he got the good name of "Tiantai".
In September, the stream of Tiantai Mountain is a little cool, but the beautiful scenery still makes people shuoxi up, the broad pale red riverbed water clear, long-lost pure beauty, moving, Panlong Falls fall layer by layer, forming a changeable shape, the loud sound of the sounding beach waterfall is far to be heard, Tiantai Mountain wonderful water world, the beautiful young girls in the deep mountains take you to find, take you to embrace, Take a wonderful journey to embrace nature.
In summer, Tiantai Mountain (located in Qionglai City, Chengdu) has a large parking lot under the mountain. All private cars can't go up the mountain by themselves. They have to buy tickets to take the special bus of scenic spots (about 40 tickets), and then the tickets of scenic spots are about 65! Anyway, it feels expensive and crowded. It takes an hour to queue up! A batch of people take turns to ride in cars and leave when they are full! Well, there are two ways to go up the mountain. You can follow them by special bus. You can go to a place to play for a while. Then you can see the car go up again. There are waterfalls on the mountain. It's not very big. But the scenery is good. It's worth mentioning that the hotel on the mountain is very comfortable. The price is more than 200.

Holiday Shop Update
Tuesday, November 11, 2014
Is it socially acceptable to talk about the holidays yet? I sure hope so! I've been adding festive holiday items to the shop lately, like these screen printed gift tags.
They feature the same ornament designs from my Merry & Bright holiday cards (I shared my creative process for that design here). Available in kraft & black, kraft & white, white & teal, and white & pink. They'd add a cool, retro vibe to all of those pretty gifts you'll give this season. You can find them all in my shop.

Oct. 22 — To the Editor:
Newspapers, social media, and now even our telephone poles are causing City Council election overload. Some sources are reliable for information, others are not. As we approach Nov. 5, do your research before casting your ballot. Despite what telephone pole flyers say, writing off incumbents due to the Post Office move, which is outside their jurisdiction as a Federal Agency, would be senseless.
Josh Denton is a sustainability warrior. Denton's citywide Styrofoam cup and container ban has made Portsmouth an undisputed leader that every other New Hampshire city will now look towards. Not only has he been our persistent champion of sustainability four years going, in some awesome integrated, hands-on learning, Denton included the Portsmouth High School Eco Club members to create this change in our community. I wish I had City Councilors teaching me about civic engagement and the importance of sustainability when I was a Portsmouth High School student. What an accomplishment for those kids to help see a change like that through!
Nancy Pearson is a force to be reckoned with. As our constant champion of the arts, she oversaw Portsmouth through the full Prescott Park Master Plan process, brought the Percentage for the Arts ordinance to fruition (mandatory artwork in new buildings!), and spearheaded the committee to create a Bridge Street Park and Worth Lot Plaza in response to the communities' cries against more development and for some green space. Pearson truly listens and cares about the issues you raise, is extremely responsive, and is without a doubt the powerful female presence these times demand.
Headlines are splashy, social media extreme, and telephone poles these days just bizarre, but they don't tell the entire story: Our outgoing City Council got $#;% done! Vote Denton and Pearson on November 5th!

Unlike most on-screen bahus that sport traditional wear, and obey their in-laws with no questions asked, Agga Bai Sasubai's Shubhra is different and unique in every way. She keeps her style game on point with trendy boho-ethnic outfits teamed with heavy silver jhumkas. Shubhra also questions regressive thinking and age-old traditions, that her-mother in law Asawari, at times, is subjected to. She is a breath of fresh air with her progressive mindset and gutsy attitude. Shubhra isn't afraid to call a spade a spade and is the new-age bahu, here to make difference.
Watch the latest episode from the show here.
The character is played by popular Marathi actress Tejashri Pradhan, who in an exclusive chat with us, reveals that she very much relates to Shubhra. "In fact, I think all girls of today will be able to relate to the character. I have played a daughter-in-law on-screen before and those were all characters where I was seen going according to what my in-laws desired, not questioning them at all and being obedient. Therefore Shubhra for me was special as she came across as realistic. The girls of today question more and ask for justification and explanations when they are asked to do something. They don't blindly follow something, they want a reason behind it. And I feel most girls will be able to relate to Shubhra because of that, as she seeks answers," says the actress.
Ask her the kind of equation she shares with her co-star Aashutosh Patki, who plays her husband Soham in the show and she says, "Ashutosh and I are best buddies," adding, "If I speak of his character on-screen then yes, he is shown as a self-centered man, spoiled by his mother Asawari. But I can say that he is nothing like his role in real life as he takes immense care of his parents (laughs)."
And what's her approach towards people who behave bratty in real life around her? "There are always people around that have been pampered by their parents immensely. Soham is shown that way too but as an audience we also need to accept that this is a fiction show and things are obviously more exaggerated as opposed to how things are in real life. I too have people like Soham in real life and I tell them if I don't like their behavior. But I feel we can only tell someone that we don't like their behavior. We can't change it or expect them to behave the way we want them to," says Tejashri.
Some fans tend to cross the line on social media too and troll actors for various reasons. Ask Tejashri how she deals with them, and she says, "Social media is a platform which has become very vast today," adding, "So anyone can now write whatever they want. If I come across negative comments regarding me, or anyone close to me, all I do is visit that person's profile and block them. I have huge friends and followers list and a block list as well (laughs),"
Now that's a clever trick right? Tell us what you think about Tejashri's views in the comments section below and stay tuned for more exclusive bytes from her!

Inflatable packer inflation verification system
An inflation verification system for an inflatable tool includes at least an information collector associated with the inflatable element of the inflatable tool connected to a controller with a predetermined set of instructions for inciting communications with the surface. Communicators contemplated include atmospheric chambers which when opened create a negative pressure pulse which propagates to the surface. More than one chamber increases the number of pulses generable and thus the amount of information conveyable. Alternative preferable communicators are electromagnetic pulse generators and acoustic telemetry. An advantage of acoustic telemetry is that more quantitative information is transmittable. Other downhole communication methods are also employable.
Latest Baker Hughes Incorporated Patents:

- Segmented wireless production logging
- Systems and methods for determining proper phase rotation in downhole linear motors
- ESP motor with sealed stator windings and stator chamber
This application claims the benefit of an earlier filing date from U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/066,602, filed Nov. 26, 1997.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to method and apparatus for verifying positive inflation of inflatable tools such as packers. More particularly, the invention relates to installing sensors within the inflatable tool, connecting the sensors to a controller which when it receives information from the sensors communicates the information to the surface using a device or procedure capable of so communicating.
2. Prior Art
Past methods for verifying positive inflation of inflatables such as an external casing packer (ECP) have been to monitor the pressure gauge employed to measure the applied pressure to inflate the packer. The applied pressure is provided either through an internal tubing string using an inflation tool or by pressuring the casing string in which the ECP is installed. When the ECP opens and begins inflating, fluid in the pressurized column begins to rapidly disperse in an amount equal to the displacement of the inflating packer. Where the ECP is large or is being inflated in a hole that is significantly larger than the outside diameter of the ECP in the uninflated condition the displaced fluid is of a relatively large volume. A large volume of fluid moving out of the pressurized column creates a pressure drop. The pressure drop occurs suddenly and is recognized by the gauge measuring the applied pressure. As long as the displaced volume is large the pressure drop is easily measured and noted and the setting of the packer is confirmed with high confidence. The method has been used for many years successfully and reliably on all larger ECP applications. Unfortunately, however, where the ECP is being set in a hole not much larger than its own uninflated outside diameter, the amount of fluid displaced into the packer is too small to be recorded by the gauge monitoring the applied pressure. This is not to say that the displaced fluid does not actually produce a pressure drop because indeed it does, it simply is to say that the drop in pressure is small because the displacement of fluid is small and the gauge employed to monitor applied pressure at many locations does not have sufficient resolution to detect the drop. Inflation of ECP's set in this type of environment cannot be confidently verified.
One prior art method that has been attempted to confirm positive inflation of an ECP in a hole not much larger than its own uninflated outside diameter is to measure displaced fluid from surface tanks. In situations where there is a long fluid column however, and the amount of fluid for inflation is very small the percentage of fluid depletion in the tanks may not be within a measurable range with equipment common at drilling sites. Therefore, the art is in need of a system for confidently verifying inflation of an inflatable tool such as an ECP which is inflated with a relatively small amount of displaced fluid.
Another prior art method to provide information about ECPs is not direct, but as a confirmation system. More specifically, memory pressure gauges are placed in an inflation tool and measure pressure in the packer. The gauges remember the pressure and can be downloaded after removal of the packer. Drawbacks to the system are that there is no real time information and the gauges only measure pressure. They do not in fact measure whether or not inflation has taken place. Thus the information supplied is helpful but not conclusive and not timely.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The above-discussed and other drawbacks and deficiencies of the prior art are overcome or alleviated by the method and apparatus of the invention.
The inflatable tool inflation verification system of the invention comprises employing an information collector in the interior of the inflatable tool or proximate thereto such as a pressure sensor or a fluid flow device such as a turbine. The pressure sensor would be calibrated to send a signal to a downhole controller in proximity with the inflatable tool when a predetermined pressure within the inflatable tool is reached or the flow device would send a signal when a predetermined volume of fluid (sufficient to fill the tool) has entered the tool. The controller activates a communication device to send confirmation of inflation to the surface. The addition of these devices makes for high confidence verification of inflation of ECPs inflated in holes not much larger than the ECPs uninflated outside diameter.
Confirmation may be sent to the surface in a number of ways but in one preferred method, which is preferred because it enables employing the same surface equipment, is to program the controller to open an atmospheric chamber of about 150 to about 250 cubic inches in volume attached to the inflatable tool itself which displaces fluid into the chamber and thus creates a pressure drop. The drop is significant because the differential between atmospheric pressure and the ambient pressure can be 5000 psi or more. This can be largely different from the pressure drop while inflating an ECP because the ECP inside the element is at well pressure as opposed to atmospheric pressure. Thus the pressure drop in the ECP will only be perhaps 1000 psi. As is appreciated it is more difficult to measure a 1000 psi drop than a 5000 psi drop in pressure. The pressure drop caused by flooding of the atmospheric chamber is easily measurable by a commercially available specially sensitive differential pressure monitoring gauge employed in the invention. Due to the method and apparatus of the invention, the verification of inflation of inflation tools employing only a small amount of displaced fluid (as well as larger ECPs) can be confidently confirmed. This is a great benefit to the industry both because it provides for verification of inflation and additionally the invention enables the use of conventional surface techniques with the improved equipment. In addition, more atmospheric chambers could be provided to add to the information gained at the surface.
Other modes in which confirmation may be sent to the surface are by supplying an electromagnetic pulse generator in the vicinity of the inflation tool and operably connected to the controller and by using acoustic telemetry through the pipe.
Although the foregoing summary of the invention discusses external casing packers specifically, it should be understood that any type of inflatable tool can benefit from the invention. As such, the detailed description which follows is directed generically to inflatable tools/inflatable elements.
The above-discussed and other features and advantages of the present invention will be appreciated and understood by those skilled in the art from the following detailed description and drawings.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Referring now to the drawings wherein like elements are numbered alike in the several FIGURES:
FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of the invention.
FIGS. 2-7 are an elongated view of a particular embodiment of the invention in the run in position.
FIGS. 8-13 are an elongated view of a particular embodiment of the invention in the partially actuated position; and
FIGS. 14-19 are an elongated view of a particular embodiment of the invention in the fully actuated position.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The invention solves an old problem by causing the parameters of the problem to fit into old methods thereby alleviating the problems. More specifically, by employing devices capable of measuring fixed parameters such as volume of fluid following therepast or pressure internal to an inflated tool and a controller to generate communication to the surface the problem of a low fluid displacement inflatable tool is solved. FIG. 1 is referred to provide an understanding conceptually of the components of the system hereinafter described in detail.
In all of the embodiments of the invention which follow, a sensor 14 or other type of information collector is employed within or adjacent an opening (not shown) in the inflatable tool which serves to allow fluid to enter the tool to inflate it. One preferred sensor is a pressure sensor disposed preferably adjacent to the packer. The sensor is preprogrammed to include a threshold differential pressure between the tool and the annulus before sending a millivolt impulse signal to the downhole controller 16 which, in turn, will activate the communicator 18. The pressure differential programmed into the sensor will be that pressure which has been predetermined to provide complete inflation of the inflatable tool. One of the other types of information collectors presently preferred is a fluid displacement device which would be located at the entrance to the inflatable portion of the inflatable tool. The device would replace or be in addition to sensor 14 and therefore is contemplated in the same flow chart box as is identified by numeral 14. In the case of the fluid displacement device, the amount of fluid flowing therepast is measured and when a threshold amount has passed, having been determined previously to be sufficient to completely deploy the inflatable element, the device sends an impulse to the controller 16 and the process continues as set forth above. In another embodiment of the invention, one or more strain gauges are employed as the sensor 14. These gauges are preferably mounted directly in the rubber cover of the packer and measure contact pressure with the open borehole or cased holes. Each of these embodiments of information collection are disposed proximately to where the information can most easily be accessed and therefore are quite reliable. With either embodiment the controller 16 is clearly advised that the inflatable tool 12 is deployed.
Communicating the information contained in the controller to the surface can be accomplished in a number of ways through a communicator 18 but preferably is by opening an atmospheric chamber, generating an electromagnetic pulse or by employing acoustic telemetry.
In the first preferred communication embodiment, a atmospheric chamber of about 150 to about 250 cubic inches in volume is built into the inflatable tool or is in a sub attached to the tool in proximty thereto. The chamber is openable at the instance of the controller. The atmospheric chamber is in effect the communicator 18 because when the chamber opens due to an action of controller 16, the chamber is rapidly flooded with fluid sufficiently to create a negative pressure pulse that is easily readable at the surface by surface detector 20. In this embodiment, surface detector 20 is a specially sensitive gauge the same gauge monitoring applied pressure. The pressure pulse read by detector 20 is then relayed either electronically to a computer 22 or directly to a technician by sight.
In an alternate iteration of the first embodiment, two atmospheric chambers are provided. The two chambers are opened at different times, the lapse of time between each negative pressure pulse produced thereby being correlated to the amount of actual pressure within the inflatable element. This provides valuable information uphole about the actual status of the inflatable element. In operation, the sensor or other information device 14 generates an impulse at a first differential value as discussed above. This is communicated to the controller which may immediately open a chamber or may time delay the opening to provide an opportunity for shut down of the rig pump. The pressure pulses are then more easily read at the surface. The first differential value is a minimum amount of pressure or fluid influx (or other predetermined parameter) to the inflatable element 12. In this alternate construction, a second impulse is generated when pressure stops climbing or fluid ceases to move into the element at a predetermined appreciable rate. Controller 16 is preprogrammed with a series of possible pressure ranges and is directed to open a second chamber a predetermined amount of time after the first depending upon which preprogrammed pressure range the sensor has signaled to the controller. Where a time delay for opening the first chamber is used to get beyond the time pumping is occurring, each of the signals will be easily measured at the surface and the time between the signals will provide information as to which final pressure range the element is in (e.g. between 875 and 925 psi the controller will wait 60 seconds between opening of chambers).
It should be understood that while the negative pressure pulse method of the invention is preferred, other methods are also available. For example, other preferable methods are to employ acoustic telemetry or electromagnetic pulse technology. Moreover, other downhole communications technology can also be adapted to be employed in the invention.
With respect to acoustic telemetry, additional quantitative benefits are realizable such as the ability to transmit annulus pressure; inflatable tool temperature, the degree to which the tool is inflated, etc. Of course it is necessary to provide sensors to read these parameters but information from as many sensors as are desired is transmittable via acoustic telemetry.
In the acoustic telemetry embodiment the communicator 18 is an acoustic transmitter and the surface detector 20 is an acoustic receiver. Basic acoustic telemetry is known to the art.
Another alternative communication method contemplated For the present invention is electromagnetic pulse technology. In employing this communication method the communicator 18 is an electromagnetic pulse generator and the surface detector 20 is adapted to receive the wavelengths produced.
In a particular embodiment of the negative pulse method and apparatus of the invention, referring to FIGS. 2-19, FIGS. 2-7 illustrate the tool in the first condition where two atmospheric chambers are sealed; FIGS. 8-13 illustrate the tool in a second condition where the first atmospheric chamber has been opened and the second atmospheric chamber is still closed; and FIGS. 14-19 illustrate the tool with both atmospheric chambers having been opened and the tool in its fully set and permanent position.
At the downhole end of the tool of the invention is attached conventionally a valve collar 100 and an inflatable packer 102. These are well known to the art and do not require explanation except to note that a pressure pathway 104 is provided in collar 100 to facilitate the function of the invention. Collar 100 is in contact with a connector sleeve 106 having an inflation and pressure test port 108 and o-ring seals 110. Port 108 leads to annular chamber 112 which is fed pressure through pathway 104 and terminates at conduit 114 leading to differential pressure transducer 116. Chamber 112 is formed by a space between connector sub 106 and transducer sub 120 relative to mandrel 122. Transducer housing 120 is also pressure sealed to mandrel 122 by o-ring seals 110. It should be noted that the pressure transducer 116 is a differential pressure transducer and so must be provided with pressure conduits leading to distinct pressure sources. The first has already been described and corresponds to the pressure inside the inflatable element of the packer 102; the second source of pressure is wellbore pressure and is accessed through a pair of ports 124 through cover sleeve 126 which extends over the transducer housing 120. Fluid from the wellbore fills the chamber 130 defined by the cover sleeve 126, transducer housing 120 and mandrel 122. An electrical connector such as a single pin connector 132 provides electrical/communication connection to pressure transducer 116 via wire (not shown). Connector 132 communicates through transducer housing 120 to microprocessor 134 by a conductor housed in conduit 133. This is the sensory portion of the invention and functions as follows: Pressure transducer 116 measures differential pressure between the internal space of the inflatable element of packer 102 and the wellbore pressure of chamber 130. The information sensed is communicated through the pathway indicated to microprocessor 134. Microprocessor 134 is programmed to allow current from battery pack 136 to run to the communication portion of the invention discussed hereunder only under specific circumstances and at specific times. Microprocessor allows current to run to a first pulse generator upon a 200 psi differential being sensed between the internal packer pressure and wellbore pressure, the packer being at the higher pressure and a second pulse generator at a second selected value of pressure differential between the two identified pressure sources and which is timed relative to the first pulse according to a predetermined ratio More specifically, the time between first and second generated pulses is directly related to the differential in pressure from the 200 psi threshold pulse and the ending packer pressure pulse. Specific knowledge as the ending pressure in the packer is in this way obtainable at the surface. It is preferable that the sequence of the microprocessor is delayed for some period of time of about five minutes after suspected setting is accomplished. Such a delay allows the well to "settle" after the pump has shut down which makes the pressure pulse communication method of the invention is easier to read at the surface.
The communication portion of the invention is responsive to triggering by microprocessor 134. Specifically, the embodiment employs two atmospheric chambers 140 and 142. Microprocessor 134 and battery pack 136 are disposed within chamber 142. Chamber 140 is defined by housing connector 144, mandrel 122 and outer housing 146 whereas chamber 142 is defined by mandrel 122, transducer housing 120 and outer housing 146. The chambers are divided by bulkhead 148 of mandrel 122 which extends radially from mandrel 122 to seal against outer housing 146 with o-rings 110. Signals and power are transmitted through bulkhead 148 by conductor 149 and connector 151. Each chamber is provided with its own opening actuation device which is operable upon command from the microprocessor so that a negative pressure pulse is created. The devices are identical and are merely oppositely disposed. The first actuator includes locking dogs 150 mounted to a piston 152, which dogs are forced into engagement with groove 154 by Kevlar wire 156. In this condition piston 152 is maintained in a blocking position over plugs 158 in ports 160. Piston 152 is also in compressive contact with spring 162 which is charged so that piston 152 will be pushed off plugs 158 upon release of locking dogs 150. Preferably a spring guide pin 164 is provided as seen in FIG. 9.
The Kevlar 156 (high tensile strength, low heat resistance) is burned by current supplied by battery pack 136 on command of microprocessor 134 and delivered to a resistor element (not shown), which releases the dogs 150. Spring 162 then pushes piston 152 off plug 158 as stated. Plug 158 is only inserted into port 160 and so will easily be urged out of port 160 by the tremendous differential pressure between atmospheric chamber 140 at 14.7 psi and wellbore pressure which maybe many thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch. The atmospheric chamber 140 thus is immediately flooded with wellbore fluid. A pressure drop pulse is created hereby which will propagate to the surface signifying that about 200 psi has been registered in the packer as sensed by the transducer 116.
The second atmospheric chamber 142 is employed to provide information about how much ending pressure is within packer 102. Since second chamber 142 operates identically to chamber 140, but in the opposite direction in this embodiment, a second negative pressure pulse will be received at the surface upon activation thereof The elements are identified as similar and distinguished by changing the first number to the two hundred series, to wit: Dogs 250; piston 252; groove 254; Kevlar 256; plug 258; port 260; spring 262; and pin 264. Microprocessor 134 is programmed to allow a certain period of time to pass between flooding each chamber, which time is directly correlated to the amount of pressure in the packer above the pressure signaled by flooding the first chamber, in this embodiment, about 200 psi. For example, if the ending pressure in the packer happens to be 500 psi above wellbore pressure and the threshold pressure is 200 psi, the first chamber 140 will be flooded and three minutes later the second chamber 142 will be flooded. In this example, each minute of delay signifies 100 psi differential pressure over wellbore above the threshold pressure. By timing the negative pressure pulses then, (the pulses will travel at the same speed through the fluid column) a surface crew is able to verify precise set pressure of the packer.
It should be noted in this embodiment that chamber 140 is flooded first only because chamber 142 houses the microprocessor and battery pack and once flooded, these items rapidly become inoperable.
For completeness, the uphole end of the tool includes top sub 170 which is threaded to mandrel 122 at thread 172 and maintained there with set screw 174. Seals are supplied in the illustrated positions to maintain specific pressure areas separate as is understood by one of skill in the art.

SA Taxi owner Transaction Capital published its results for the year ended September 2019, showing headline earnings growth of 18% despite South Africa's strained operating environment characterised by low consumer and business confidence.
SA Taxi grew headline earnings by 38% to R519 million and debt collection business, Transaction Capital Risk Services (TCRS), grew headline earnings by 15% to R313 million.
Core headline earnings and core headline earnings per share increased 18% to R803 million (2018: R682 million) and 131.3 cents (2018: 111.7 cents) respectively.
Basic earnings per share increased 6% to 118.8 cents (2018: 111.7 cents) and basic headline earnings per share increased 5% to 117.5 cents (2018: 111.7 cents).
The group declared a total dividend per share up 22% to 61 cents.
Transaction Capital chief executive officer, David Hurwitz said: "Transaction Capital has maintained its record of delivering strong financial results over the last 7½ years since listing on the JSE in June 2012. SA Taxi and TCRS continue to demonstrate resilience as highly defensive businesses able to deliver good commercial returns in poor economic conditions."
SA Taxi
SA Taxi provides developmental finance, insurance and other services to empower minibus taxi owners, thus enhancing the sustainability, reliability and safety of South Africa's public transport infrastructure.
Approximately 250,000 minibus taxi's complete more than 15 million commuter trips every day in South Africa.
Although not immune to difficult economic conditions, the minibus taxi industry is supported by population growth and increased urbanisation, which have resulted in higher commuter density, Transaction Capital said.
SA Taxi grew headline earnings 38% resulting in Transaction Capital's attributable portion thereof growing by 21% to R446 million. The loans and advances portfolio grew by 16% to R10.8 billion, comprising about 32,500 loans, it said.
Toyota's increased production of minibus taxis, SA Taxi's launch of a lower interest rate product for better quality customers and higher loan origination volumes on Nissan vehicles supported this growth.
"Strong momentum in the sale and finance of SA Taxi's fully refurbished pre-owned minibus taxis also contributed to portfolio growth as minibus taxi operators seek a more affordable but reliable alternative to buying a new minibus taxi in this challenging economic environment," Transaction Capital said.
It noted that an ownership transaction between SA Taxi and the South African National Taxi Council (Santaco) was finalised in February, with Santaco now owning 25% of SA Taxi.
Santaco is the only government-recognised representative body of the minibus taxi industry.
SA Taxi's short-term insurance business, SA Taxi Protect, grew gross written premiums by 20% to R823 million driven by new products and new customer acquisition.
The business broadened its client base via its broker network, specifically targeting open market clients – being insurance clients not financed by SA Taxi Finance.
SA Taxi Rewards is an example of the shared value created as a result of the ownership transaction between SA Taxi and Santaco. In close collaboration with the minibus taxi industry, SA Taxi Rewards was established to leverage the industry's purchasing power to enable minibus taxi operators to procure higher quality parts and consumables at a lower cost.
The number of minibus taxis sold through the retail dealerships grew 14%, generating revenue of about R900 million. New dealerships are being considered in the medium term.
"SA Taxi intends to leverage its telematics and rewards programmes data to connect to South Africa's 250 000 minibus taxi operators selling existing finance and insurance, and new products suited to the needs of minibus taxi operators," said Hurwitz.
TCRS's collection services business delivered organic revenue growth of 21%.
Excellent revenue growth in the collection of non-performing consumer loan portfolios acquired as a principal performed ahead of expectations, and has positively offset the impact of the expected slowdown in outsourced contingency collections in South Africa.
TCRS invested R1.2 billion in non-performing consumer loan portfolios this year.
"This investment will support strong and predictable annuity revenue over the medium term estimated at almost R4.5 billion," Transaction Capital said.
In its most significant business activity, collection services, TCRS acts either as a principal in acquiring and then collecting on non-performing consumer loan portfolios, or as a service provider on an outsourced contingency or fee-for-service basis.

Make Your Company Feel Like Royalty
Canada's only guilded butler shares his secrets on hosting holiday parties fit for Buckingham Palace
Azuridge's General Manager Clarence McLeod recently appeared in Hello Magazine offering up his royal expertise on how to throw the most impressive of affairs that one might experience in the company of the Queen Mother.
As a personal host to Queen Elizabeth during a Canadian visit, Clarence has worked with her butler team and after years of study in the arts of English butlering, he's collected more than a few sparkling tips on making your company feel like they're attending an event at the likes of Windsor Castle.
Like the seating plan at a wedding, even the smallest holiday parties need to be strategized. Keep important guests close to you and assign other seats to guests who will mix and mingle nicely.
Know thy guest
Serving buffet style dishes gives you a greater ability to serve a small but diverse spread. It's also important to be aware of dietary restrictions to make sure there are no awkward situations where guests are forced to go without.
Make life easy with assistance
"Synchronized service is like theatre in motion," says Azuridge's General Manger. This is why you should never be afraid to hire staff to help ensure things run smoothly. An extra set of hands in the kitchen, behind the bar or checking coats can make all the difference.

Song For Sophia (Rougement, #1) by Moriah Densley
Historical Romance
Ebook, 364 pages
September 24, 2014
esKAPE Press
Reviewed by Tori
Favorite Quote: "To win a man's heart, a woman must have the mind of a diplomat, a general, and Cleopatra, all in one."
Lady Anne-Sophia Duncombe is running from an abusive father whose last scheme almost killed her. He wants her with child and will do anything to accomplish that. Sophia manages to escape her father and hide with the help of a friend. She decides the only way to avoid recapture is to become a commoner. She disguises herself up as a widow and seeks employment at Rougemont, home to the insane Earl of Devon.
Wilhelm Montague, the Earl of Devon, is thought to be insane. A tortured war hero tainted by scandal, he is suffers from savant autism. He remains closeted on his country estate, safe in his routines and composing his beautiful brilliant music; a necessary release of his illness.
When Wilhelm meets the newest member of his household, he is stunned by the chemistry that blazes between them. He knows instinctively she is hiding secrets but finds himself drawn to her beauty and intelligence. When danger comes to Rougemont, Wilhelm and Sophia must push through their fears in order to triumph over the evil that seeks to destroy them both.
Song For Sophia is a delightful historical romance filled with mystery, suspense, sizzling chemistry, and sparkling dialogue. Set in the Victorian era, this strong character driven story features a hero and heroine so supremely built, their characterization catapults this from good to fantastic. Well plotted with a healthy balance between the conflict and romance. Strong dialogue is punctuated with humour and wit, written without flowery prose or overly saturated angst, entrances the reader and draws them into the story. Darkness shadows our protagonists yet their journey to true love is a bright shining thread that intertwines through the storyline.
I loved Sophia and Wilhelm from their first meeting. Both are strong, intelligent, strong willed characters who have been victimized by life but able to rise above it. They each have been alone for so long that it takes awhile for their minds to acknowledged what their souls already know-they are one. Neither of them sees the other as damaged. They are both accepting of who the other one is and that only enhances the joy that occurs when they begin to embrace and accept it. I loved the banter between them. It reflects their personalities and intentions so well we watch their acquaintance turn into friendship, then love.
"Lord Devon," she greeted dryly in the same tone she might say, "you impish prankster."
He shrugged one shoulder to mean, "So, you finally figured it out. Bravo."
"The only havoc I see here is the dreadful cataloging. For one so meticulous, it strikes me as odd that the alphabet should be beyond you."
He nodded thoughtfully."Perhaps I had them organized chronologically by genre."
"You have the Bible next to Homer."
Sophia is a wonderful mixture of fragility and steel. She had defied incredible odds to survive the horror that is her father and continues to fight her way towards complete freedom, using whatever means are necessary. She hates being deceptive but her staying safe also guarantees the safety of others.
"You said before I may keep my secrets and I shall. I promise, you would like me less without my mystery."
Wilhelm is fabulous with his patience and steadfast ways towards Sophia. He handles her with care; knowing that she needs to trust herself and him before they can go forward. His complete acceptance of her and her story makes him a true hero in my eyes. He assures her repeatedly that no matter what she does or where she goes, he will always be there for her.
"This is a peaceful place. I vow you have nothing to fear. And you may keep your secrets, Madam."
The romance evolves at a realistic pace, allowing Wilhelm and Sophia time to get to know one another and deal with their personal issues. Wilhelms illness causes him great consternation while Sophia remains on constant vigil. The chemistry and sexual tension between Wilhelm and Sophia is so emotionally charged you can feel it leaping off the pages. Their love scenes are deliciously sensual and revealing. The internal and external dialogue between one another is both humorous and heartwrenching. Trust is hard won but once it's earned, it's a silken tie that binds them to one another with the strength of steel.
Ms. Densley does a fantastic job of blending the suspense of the story with the romance. Non stop action speeds the story along at an engaging pace as the conflict begins to weave its way into the main conflict. While there is much going on, Ms. Densley clear and concise writing leaves little confusion. With each scene we watch Wilhelm and Sophia face their fears and overcome obstacles. Neither the plot nor romance is sacrificed. They balance and complement each other through the entire book.
Moriah Densley paints a beautiful love affair in her historical romance debut and I for one look forward to reading more from her in the future.
