We compare and contrast measurements of the mass accommodation coefficient of water on a water surface made using ensemble and single particle techniques under conditions of supersaturation and subsaturation, respectively. In particular, we consider measurements made using an expansion chamber, a continuous flow streamwise thermal gradient cloud condensation nuclei chamber, the Leipzig Aerosol ...

A theory of cross-coupled flow equations in unsaturated soils is necessary to predict (1) electroosmotic flow with application to electroremediation and agriculture, (2) the electroseismic and the seismoelectric effects to develop new geophysical methods to characterize the vadose zone, and (3) the streaming current, which can be used to investigate remotely ground water flow in unsaturated con...

In the process of in situ mining underground oil shale, it is necessary to build an frozen wall around area prevent inflow groundwater and gas leakage. However, water saturation soil affects formation freezing circle. practical engineering, when building a under different conditions, curtain often not closed. It also construction operating costs entire project. this paper, methods laboratory ex...

It is shown that a very simple model reproduces the pressure versus beam current characteristics of elongated single-cavity boiling water targets for F production surprisingly well. By fitting the model calculations to measured data, values for a single free parameter, namely an overall heattransfer coefficient, have been extracted for several IBA Nirta H2 O targets. IBA recently released detai...

‘Reservoir Characterization (RC)’ can be defined as the act of building a reservoir model that incorporates all the characteristics of the reservoir that are pertinent to its ability to store hydrocarbons and also to produce them. It is a difficult problem due to non-linear and heterogeneous subsurface properties and associated with a number of complex tasks such as data fusion, data mining, fo...
