to study the effects of post-stripping oocyte ageing at low temperatures on the viability of kutum (rutilus kutum) oocytes, unfertilised eggs of five females were stored in ovarian fluid at temperatures of 4 and 7 degree centigrade for 24 hours post stripping (hps). the stored ova of five female kutum were separately fertilised at 0 (i.e., control eggs fertilised prior to storage), 4, 8, 12, 16...

Table 6. Flow survival regression S = a + b * Flow for seasonal data average by unweighted and weighted by smolt passage index. ∆S = (S 80-S 70)/ S 80 is a relative increase in survival with a 10 kcfs increase in flow where S 80 and S 70 are survivals at 80 and 70 kcfs Lower Table 15a. Scenario average flows (kcfs) and temperatures (centigrade) plus flow augmentation (maf) between day 160 and 2...

An experimental investigation was carried out to study mixed convection heat transfer from Al2O3-water nanofluid inside a vertical, W-shaped, copper-tube with uniform wall temperature. The tests covered different ranges of some involved parameters including Reynolds number, temperature and particles volume fraction. The results showed that the rate of heat transfer coefficient improved with Rey...

Perioperative hypothermia is a common and serious complication of anesthesia and surgery. Core body temperature, which is normally regulated to within a few tenths of a degree centigrade, can fall by as much as 6 degrees C during anesthesia. The combination of anesthetic-induced impairment of thermoregulatory control and exposure to a cool operating room environment causes most surgical patient...

Median motor and sensory nerves were examined in 20 healthy subjects. Superficial stimulating and recording electrodes were used, and the nerves were examined at natural skin temperature, after cooling and after heating of the arm. The conduction velocity for the fastest and slow conducting sensory fibres (temperature range 17-37 degrees C), and for the fastest conducting motor fibres (temperat...

At a combined cycle power plant, gas turbine cooling air flowrate data is required for operation and maintenance because it an important analyzing not only the temperature of both stators blades but also plant efficiency. However, very difficult to measure data. An ultrasonic flowmeter cannot be used since measurement position becomes hot, usually exceeding 300 degrees centigrade. insert type u...

Abstract Both intensities of individual extreme rainfall events and the frequency such are important for infrastructure planning. We develop a new statistical value model, PGEV which makes it possible to use high quality annual maximum series data instead lesswell checked daily estimate trends in intensity separately. The method is applied maxima from NOAA Atlas 14, Volume 10, dating approximat...
