چکیده

1. Do living organisms possess steady state, or direct current, potential differences? 2. Can these potential differences be measured in such a way as to be free from the usual ambiguities of electrical measurement, i.e., can the determination of potential differences be made independently of resistance changes and current flow? 3. Do these potential differences reflect an unorganized chaos or are they related in such a way as to produce definable electrodynamic fields? 4. If such fields are present, are they merely by-products of the living process or are they determinants of the pattern of organization?

2D Numerical Simulation of a Micro Scale Ranque-Hilsch Vortex Tube

  In this study, fluid flow and energy separation in a micro-scale Ranque-HilschVortex Tube are numerically investigated. The flow is assumed as 2D, steady,compressible ideal gas, and shear-stress-transport SST k-W is found to be a bestchoice for modeling of turbulence phenomena. The results are in a good agreementwith the experimental results reported in the literature. The results show that f...

Dimensional Similarity in the Study of Microbubble Production Inside Venturi Tube

The present study considers of the water and air flow and Micro-Bubble production inside the venturi tube, by the use of dimensional analysis. Numerical analysis of Micro-Bubble creation in venturi tube requires fast computers and large amounts of storage space. Up to now, there has been no numerical analysis concerning Micro-Bubble creation and all other existing studies are experimental. To s...

A Proposed Wattmeter Using Multielectrode Tubes

FrOR direct measurement of small amounts of power, or for measurement of power over a wide range of frequencies, dynamometer wattmeters are unsatisfactory, and vacuum tube wattmeters are often resorted to. Hitherto vacuum tube wattmeters have depended for their operation on the use of tubes having a square-law characteristic, connected in a push-pull circuit so as to avoid indications caused by...

Phase Angle Measurement in Healthy Human Subjects through Bio-Impedance Analysis

Objective(s)Bioelectrical impedance is the measure of impedance of the body. Impedance consists of electric resistance and reactance. Phase angle (PA) is the tan value of the ratio of reactance versus electric resistance. PA depends on cell membrane integrity and on body cell mass. There exists a correlation between PA values and body cell mass.The objective of this study was to compare the PA ...
