ACTIVE MAGNETIC REGENERATIVE LIQUEFIER USING PROCESS GAS PRE-COOLING FROM BYPASS FLOW OF HEAT TRANSFER FLUID
A process for liquefying a process gas comprising: introducing a heat transfer fluid into an active magnetic regenerative refrigerator apparatus that comprises (i) a high magnetic field section in which the heat transfer fluid flows from a cold side to a hot side through at least one magnetized bed of at least one magnetic refrigerant, (ii) a first no heat transfer fluid flow section in which the bed is demagnetized, (iii) a low magnetic or demagnetized field section in which the heat transfer fluid flows from a hot side to a cold side through the demagnetized bed, and (iv) a second no heat transfer fluid flow section in which the bed is magnetized; continuously diverting a bypass portion of the heat transfer fluid from the cold side of the low magnetic or demagnetized field section into a bypass flow heat exchanger at a first cold inlet temperature; and continuously introducing the process gas into the bypass flow heat exchanger at a first hot inlet temperature and discharging the process gas or liquid from the bypass flow heat exchanger at a first cold exit temperature; wherein the temperature difference between bypass heat transfer first cold inlet temperature and the process gas first cold exit temperature is 1 to 5 K.
Iterative Method Fault Injection Collection (IMIC)
Soft errors caused by transient bit flips have the potential to significantly impact an application's behavior. This has motivated the design of an array of techniques to detect, isolate, and correct soft errors using microarchitectural, archi- tectural, compilation-based, or application-level techniques to minimize their impact on the executing application. The first step toward the design of good error detection/correction techniques involves an understanding of an application's vulnerability to soft errors. To study the behavior of iterative methods in the presence of soft errors, we inject errors during the execution of these methods. In particular, we study the impact of one error (single- or multi-bit) on the execution of iterative methods. We use real life datasets from the SuiteSparse Matrix Collection (https://sparse.tamu.edu) and widely used iterative solver library (Iterative Methods Library, IML++ v1.2a). We instrument the iterative solver implementations so that our error injection methodology can control the iteration, vector, position, number of bits and position of the bits of the error injection. We employed 6 solvers and 28 datasets, performed a total of 1,744,800 error injection runs and collected more than 2.5TB data.
