Krško NPP Experience with RTD Bypass Elimination

Single center experience with carotico-subclavian bypass

Methods We performed 11 carotico-subclavian bypass operations between August 2009-January 2013 at our department. 8 patients were operated for subclavian steal syndrome with subclavian artery occlusion and 3 patients were operated before TEVAR for aortic dissection/aneursym necessiating left subclavian artery coverage. 9 male (81.81%) and 2 female (18.18%) patient with the age between 55-73 (me...

Can You Calibrate your RTD Devices Correctly with your RTD Calibrator

The basic concept behind RTDs (Resistive Temperature Detectors) is a very simple one. A current is passed through a material that has a stable and defined change in resistance versus a change in absolute temperature. The most common example of this is the Platinum (Pt) 100 curve equal to 0.00385Ω/Ω/°C. This Pt 100 curve has a base resistance of 100Ω at 0°C and is described typically according t...

An experience with jejuno-ileal bypass in South Africa.

Gross obesity greatly increases morbidity and mortality. When dietary measures fail, surgery should be considered provided certain strict criteria are met. Jejuno-ileal bypass is successful if the patient is willing to adapt to some changes in lifestyle and submits to regular monitoring. The mortality is low and the morbidity acceptable. The operation should only be carried out in centres where...

Simulators for Npp Engineering

Nuclear power plant simulation has traditionally focused on plantspecific Full Scope Simulators (FSS) with the primary objective being licensed operator training. The initial development and delivery of the vast majority of the FSSs have taken place either late in the plant construction cycle or following commercial operation. The development of an FSS has typically taken two to three years wit...
