The deterioration of the performance of a cross flow heat exchanger with condensation due to the longitudinal conduction was investigated. For a relatively small change of wall temperature along the flow directions which was shown to be common in many applications, the energy equations were solved numerically. An iterative method was used to solve the resulting equations of the finite differenc...

change in transmitting time of impulses along axons is traditionally attributed to two parameters: the myelin formation and the diameter of neurite, both rising during the postnatal development. in the previous study, we showed that conduction velocity of the fibers projecting from the thalamus to the layer iv of the somatosensory (barrel) cortex increases as a function of age. however, the con...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none fa background : fahr's disease is a rare neurodegenerative disorder of unknown cause characterized by idiopathic basal ganglia calcification that is associated with neuropsychiatric and cognitive impairment. no case of fahr's disease with associated cardiac conduction disease has been described in the literature to date. the objective of this case report ...

The interaction of thermal radiation with conduction and laminar natural convection in a vertical circular pin, situated at participating gas, is numerically investigated. An absorbing and emitting gas is considered, and treated to be a gray participating media. Under the idealizing of gray gas, the Rosselan4 approximation is employed to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. ...

Longitudinal heat conduction is an important parameter in the cryogenic field, especially in cryogenic heat exchangers. In the present work, the parasitic effect of tube wall longitudinal heat conduction on temperature measurement has been studied in cryogenic laminar hydrogen flow. The effects of various parameters such as wall cold end temperature, wall thermal conductivity, gas volumetric fl...

Guillain-Barré syndrome is divided into two major subtypes, acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and acute motor axonal neuropathy. The characteristic electrophysiological features of acute motor axonal neuropathy are reduced amplitude or absence of distal compound muscle action potentials indicating axonal degeneration. In contrast, autopsy study results show early nodal changes in ...

BACKGROUND Gaps of sufficient cross-sectional dimensions within linear radiofrequency (RF) lesions may allow conduction through the lesion. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different gap geometries on conduction through discontinuous RF lesions. METHODS AND RESULTS Radiofrequency lesions were created in isolated, perfused rabbit right ventricular (RV) free wall preparat...
