Magnetotelluric Studies of Active Continent–Continent Collisions
Continent–continent collisions are an important tectonic process and have played a fundamental role in the evolution of the modern continents. A combination of geological and geophysical data has provided new constraints on the structure and temporal evolution of these orogens. Magnetotelluric (MT) studies have been an important part of these studies since they can constrain the fluid content a...
متن کاملAn Experimental Evaluation of Flammable and Non-Flammable High Pressure HFC Replacements for R-22
In this paper, the performance of three high pressure HFC refrigerants: R-32, R-41 OA, and R-41 08, is compared to that of R-22. R-32 has excellent thermophysical properties as compared to R-41 OA, R-41 08 and R-22. However, R-32 is a flammable refrigerant while R-41 OA and R-41 OB are non-flammable. The performance of these refrigerants is investigated in a residential heat pump at the test co...
متن کاملFlammable Liquid Fire Consequence Modeling
The recent expansion in the production of shale petroleum crude oil, combined with the lack of new pipeline construction, has placed the railroads at the center stage for safe and efficient transport of very large volumes of this commodity. Petroleum crude oil poses fire risk in the event of train accidents. The consequence modeling based on the US DOT Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG) or ALOH...
متن کاملLeakage of Mildly Flammable Refrigerants into a Room
The use of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) has been widely restricted. They have been replaced with hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in order to protect the ozone layer. However, the leakage of refrigerant into the air from active or end-of-life air conditioners is a serious environmental issue owing to the high global warming potential (GWP) of HFCs. Therefore, replaci...
متن کاملSevoflurane breakdown produces flammable concentrations of hydrogen.
BACKGROUND Fires, explosions, and extreme heat production may occur when sevoflurane reacts with desiccated barium hydroxide lime. The identity of the flammable gas has not previously been published, although carbon monoxide, methanol, formaldehyde, and methyl formate have been identified in low quantities. METHODS The authors reacted sevoflurane with excess desiccated barium hydroxide lime o...
