Trans-critical CO2 vapor compression (VC) refrigeration cycles require a high ratio, which is associated with expansion losses. To recover these losses, pressure exchange process between the low- and high-pressure sides of VC cycle proposed examined in this study. The system an open type constant volume where high- low-pressure flows mix inside system. This prototype inspired by exchangers used...

Spliced leader (SL) trans-splicing is a critical element of gene expression in a number of eukaryotic groups. This process is arguably best understood in nematodes, where biochemical and molecular studies in Caenorhabditis elegans and Ascaris suum have identified key steps and factors involved. Despite this, the precise details of SL trans-splicing have yet to be elucidated. In part, this is be...

Abstract Carbon-dioxide-based trans-critical power cycle is a novel technology for waste heat recovery. This can handle the high-temperature exhaust gas and be built in compact size, which an important feature auxiliary equipment internal combustion engine. To obtain best output, four configurations were constructed: basic system; one with preheater, another regenerator fourth preheater regener...

RLabonté et al entitle their paper in this issue of the International Journal of Health Policy and Management “The Trans-Pacific Partnership: Is It Everything We Feared for Health?” Tantalisingly, they do not directly answer the question they pose, and in this commentary, we suggest that it is the wrong question; we should not ‘fear’ the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) at all, rather we should ...
