چکیده

where C n(h) is the vertical profile of the refractive index structure constant, V (h) is the vertical profile of the modulus of the wind speed. In the following we always assume that τ0 refers to the wavelength λ0 = 0.5 μm. The differential-exposure scintillation index (DESI) is computed for the smallest 2-cm MASS aperture as a differential index between 1 ms and 3 ms exposures. Instead of binning the signal in 3 ms, the DESI index σ DESI is actually computed as σ DESI = 2/9 (3σ 2 0 + σ 2 2 − 4σ 2 1), (2)

Design, Construction and Calibration of a Laser Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer

A time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF-MS) developed in our laboratory at Isfahan University of Technology is described here. The TOF-MS instrument uses laser as the ionization source which provides an opportunity to investigate the ions formed in laser ablation or desorption. The TOF-MS has an ionization chamber containing an accelerator and an ion lens to focus the ions into a one meter line...

محاسبه ثابت کالیبراسیون شمارنده فعال‌سازی با پوشش نقره‌ای و مقایسه آن با نتایج تجربی به‌منظور اندازه‌گیری بهره نوترونی در دستگاه پلاسمای کانونی

The silver activation counters are commonly used for pulsed-neutron yield measurements especially in plasma focus devices. The counter normally consists of a Geiger-Muller tube along with silver foils and polyethylene (as a moderator), which is calibrated against an Am-Be radioisotope neutron source. The neutrons, after being slowed-down in the polyethylene, activate the silver foils. By measur...

Time resolved characterization of diesel particulate emissions. 1. Instruments for particle mass measurements.

The measurement of diesel vehicle exhaust particulate mass is currently accomplished using filter collection methods according to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Such filter methods limit time resolution to a minimum of several minutes, making it impossible to study emissions during transient operating conditions. Extensive testing of five different measurement methods has demonstrated t...

Flow Visualization by Conditional Sampling of a Single X-Wire Probe in a Very Long Run Experiment

Flow visualization techniques using tracer markers such as die, smoke, hydrogen bubbles, etc., have been widely used in experimental investigations of large scale structures of a variety of flow fields. They have played an important role in understanding the physics of the coherent structures formation and evolution in the transitional as well as the turbulent regions of the flow fields. Howeve...

A Novel System-Level Calibration Method for Gimballed Platform IMU Using Optimal Estimation

An accurate calibration of inertial measurement unit errors is increasingly important as the inertial navigation system requirements become more stringent. Developing calibration methods that use as less as possible of IMU signals has 6-DOF gimballed IMU in space-stabilized mode is presented. It is considered as held stationary in the test location incorporating 15 di...
