GM/CA@APS operates two insertion-device beamlines, 23ID-B and 23ID-D, and one bending magnet beamline, 23BM-B, in sector 23 of the Advanced Photon Source. We recently integrated a Pilatus3 6M detector - a new generation of large sensitive area detectors based on pixel array detector technology and marketed by Dectris. The sensitive area of the device is 423.6 mm × 434.6 mm. The Pilatus3 features the newly implemented re-triggering mechanism that increases the count-rate capabilities by almost an order of magnitude compared to previous generation Pilatus detectors. The detector installed on beamline 23ID-D is the first Pilatus3 6M with a 1000-micron thick sensor, offering higher efficiency at energies above 12 keV. The fast read-out (0.95 ms) and high speed (up to 100 Hz) of the detector allow shutterless data collection. The detector has been fully integrated into the JBluIce user interface and data processing pipeline at GM/CA. Systematic studies with protein crystals were carried out in order to optimize data collection parameters. Overall data collection speed (frame rate), oscillation width per frame, spindle axis speed, and re-triggering have been studied. Different sets of optimal parameters have been established for crystallographic data collection and for crystal screening with the raster feature (grid scanning). The results of these studies and of performance measurements will be presented. This project and GM/CA @ APS are supported by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences and Cancer Institute of NIH.

Abstract The PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) technology is a brand-new technique of measuring velocity. It started in the 1980’s with the development of high-speed photography and the image processing technique of computers. This article deals with PIV applied to the study of unsteady impeller-vaneless diffuser interaction in centrifugal fen. Experiments were carried out at The Turbomachinery Laboratory of Shanghai Jiaotong University. The test rig consists of a centrifugal, shrouded impeller, diffuser and volute casing all made of plexiglass. A series of performance measurements were carried out at different speeds and different vaneless diffuser widths. PIV measurements were applied to measure the unsteady flow at the exit part of the impeller and the inlet part of the diffuser for the case of the same width vaneless diffuser. The absolute flow field is measured at medium flow rate and at maximum flow rate. It is informative to capture the whole flow field at the same instant of time, and it might be more revealing to observe the unstable flow in real time.

This project proposes a new SCARA variant with 4 degree of freedom. The proposed variant is achieved by swapping joint 2 and joint 3 of the standard SCARA robots. An adaptive controller is defined based on the advantages and disadvantages of PD, and SMC controllers.The purpose of the project is to understand the dynamics of the variant and to track the performance for trajectories. Simulations for tracking performance are carried under linear and circular trajectories. The variant is studied over the three controllers; PD, PD-SMC and A-PD-SMC. The variant under the adaptive controller is most efficient in terms of tracking performance and the control inputs to the system. The system is simulated under high speed and with the influence of friction at the joints. The control gains are held constant for both the trajectories and hence the controller is able to perform good under changing trajectories. Due to the use of the adaptive law, the system is at the ease of implementation and since no priori knowledge if the system is needed, it is model free. Therefore, the proposed adaptive PD-SMC has proven to provide good, robust trajectory tracking.

A single stage, high speed, high pressure ratio radial inflow turbine was designed for a single shaft gas turbine engine in the 200 kW power range. A model turbine has been tested in a cold rig facility with correct simulation of the important non-dimensional parameters. Performance measurements over a wide range of operation were made, together with extensive volute and exhaust traverses, so that gas velocities and incidence and deviation angles could be deduced. The turbine efficiency was lower than expected at all but the lowest speed. The rotor incidence and exit swirl angles, as obtained from the rig test data, were very similar to the design assumptions. However, evidence was found of a region of separation in the nozzle vane passages, presumably caused by a very high curvature in the endwall just upstream of the vane leading edges. The effects of such a separation are shown to be consistent with the observed performance.

This paper is focused on a millimeter-wave detector system that works at self-heterodyne mode. The detector antenna and MMW front-end are integrated and a weak heterodyne signal is amplified with a low-noise amplifier. After high-speed sampled with a high-speed A/D, digital signal are processed in a FPGA. Some experiment results are shown finally.
