In a dynamic weighing gas mass flow measurement, the gas mass flow rate is continuously determined by weighing a gas mass loss from a gas cylinder as a function of time. In this measurement method, the temperature difference between the wall of the gas cylinder and ambient air cannot be avoided. Due to natural convection flow, a shear stress appears on the wall of the cylinder. Because of the d...

This article presents an investigation of the potential of spray and spouted bed technology for the production of dried extracts of Rosmarinus officinalis Linné, popularly known as rosemary. The extractive solution was characterized by loss on drying, extractable matter and total phenolic and flavonoid compounds (chemical markers). The product was characterized by determination of loss on dryin...

fast pyrolysis is an attractive technology for biomass conversion, from which bio-oil is the preferred product with a great potential for use in industry and transport. corn wastes (cob and stover) and eucalyptus wood are widely being produced throughout the world. in this study, fast pyrolysis of these two materials were examined under the temperature of 500 °c; career gas flow rate of 660 l h...

Simultaneous removal of NO(x) and SO2 from exhausted gas were investigated by studying co-culture of sulfate reducing bacteria and anaerobic denitrifying bacteria, separated from landfill leachate. When H2S, generated by sulfate reducing bacteria was chosen as the sole electron donor for anaerobic denitrifying bacteria, the co-culture system demonstrated a faster NO removal rate, higher stabili...

In this paper, an advanced analysis of a novel hybrid compression-absorption refrigeration system (HCARS) for natural gas dew point control unit in a gas refinery is presented. This unit separates the heavy hydrocarbon molecules in the natural gas, which is traditionally carried out by natural gas cooling in a compression refrigeration cycle (CRS). The power input required for the refrigeration...

OBJECTIVE Baby EAR circuit is a new modified enclosed afferent reservoir anesthetic breathing system for pediatric patients. By following His Majesty the King of Thailand's self-sufficiency philosophy, the circuit is simple and made of low-cost and easy-to-find materials found in the operating room. This present study was to investigate clinical use of the circuit and to find the optimal fresh ...

Fluid flow in the mold region of the continuous slab caster at Panzhihua Steel is investigated with 0.6-scale water model experiments, industrial measurements, and numerical simulations. In the water model, multiphase fluid flow in the submerged entry nozzle (SEN) and the mold with gas injection is investigated. Top surface level fluctuations, pressure at the jet impingement point, and the flow...
