• Novel Ionic Liquid that is not corrosive to aluminum used as liquid desiccant. New three-fluid fin-tube desiccant contactor fabricated using aluminum. Experimental performance of the IL solution investigated. The fin–tube showed superior than packed bed contactor. Lower flow rates and pumping power expected experimental a new novel ionic investigated compared with those an adiabatic LiCl for ...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship of neurotoxic inorganic elements in the hair of patients with the diagnosis of Neural Tube Defects. Our initial hypothesis was that neurotoxic inorganic elements were associated with Neural Tube Defects. METHODS Twenty-three samples of hair from newborns were obtained from the General Hospital, "Aurelio Valdivieso" in the ci...

Heat transfer enhancement in tubes is widely applied various industrial processes. The traditional method of heat to insert radial fins expand the internal surface area and destroy flow. However, there a flue gas corridor central tube, cost expanding inner fin high. A centrally symmetrical bent extruded aluminum was developed enhance tube. An experimental platform constructed test performance f...

Differences in the come-up times and thermal inactivation parameters of Listeria innocua in salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) caviar containing 2.5% salt using conventional thermal-death-time (TDT) glass tubes and a novel aluminum tube were tested and compared. Generally, the come-up times and decimal reduction times (D-values) were shorter and the change in temperature required to change the D-value ...

This report contains the results of attempting to improve on the results of Scott R. Sawyer and Alan M. L’Esperance research paper “Investigation of Paraffin Wax as an Energy Storage Medium Within a Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger.” The overall goal of the paper mentioned was to investigate the usefulness of wax as an energy storage medium. Scott R. Sawyer and Alan M. L’Esperance determined that ...

Energy imparted is a measure of the total ionizing energy deposited in the patient during a radiologic examination and may be used to quantify the patient dose in diagnostic radiology. Values of the energy imparted per unit exposure-area product, omega (z), absorbed by a semi-infinite water phantom with a thickness z, were computed for x-ray spectra with peak x-ray tube voltages ranging from 50...

In this research, the production possibility of TiC-Al2O3 nanocomposite, as a useful ceramic from commercially pure TiO2, aluminum powder and carbon black has been investigated. Routile (TiO2) with carbon black and aluminum were placed in a high energy ball mill and sampled during different milling times. Then, the activated powders were synthesized at different temperatures in an atmosphere co...

This paper deeply analyzes the main factors of the dissolved problems arising in the process of aluminum alloy hard anodizing, combined with the specific problems occurring in production practice, introduces in detail the method and thought to analyze and investigate the causes of dissolving, and puts forward targeted improvement technology. This paper is practically instructive and significant...
