In a 2.45 GHz plasma torch, carbon dioxide (CO2) has been converted into monoxide (CO) and oxygen (O2) at atmospheric pressure. The conversion the efficiency of have determined using two independent measuring methods: mass spectrometry Fourier transform infrared absorption spectroscopy. depends on measurement position in exhaust gas duct. values beginning duct are significantly higher (maximum ...

As for a variable air volume (VAV) system, the air duct static pressure is a typical control variable maintained by modulating supply fan speed. The static pressure equals to the summation of the duct pressure loss downstream of the sensor to the terminal box and box inlet static pressure. Typically, the air duct static pressure is set as a constant set point based on the system design informat...

BACKGROUND Despite the growing popularity of breast lift surgery, no published study prospectively evaluates mastopexy and augmentation/mastopexy. Several investigators suggest an inordinate risk in combining augmentation and mastopexy, and recommend staging the surgery in some patients. However, no existing study includes the necessary individual and combined treatment cohorts to allow reliabl...

India seeks to achieve 175 Giga-Watt (GW) of Renewable power by 2022. As of December 2017, out of 333 GW of total installed capacity of electricity, close to 62GW come from renewable sources. Meeting the set targets calls for augmentation of renewable energy based capacities as expeditiously as possible. However, the sick financial health of the distribution companies/utilities, who act a...

thoracic duct is a duct that drains the lymph from the cisterna chily into the venous angle of the cranial vena vava. thoracic duct in the horse is situated on the right side, but in rare cases the left thoracic duct has been reported. in this report the course and left position of the thoracic duct in an embalmed donkey is described. regarding many anatomical similarities between horse and don...

the aim of this study was to compare the lateral window and osteotome techniques for sinus lifting using histological and histomorphometric methods.in this clinical trial 10 patients (a total number of 14 sinus areas) who needed implant treatment in the atrophic posterior maxilla were enrolled. in all the cases the residual bone height between the sinus floor and the alveolar crest was less tha...

Anatomic variations in forensic extrahepatic bile ducts is common. Knowledge of extrahepatic bile duct variations is important for surgeons in order to prevent iatrogenic damage during surgery. This study aims to determine the variations in extrahepatic bile ducts among 150 cadavers located at the Kerman Medicine Organization. We performed autopsies on 150 cadavers. Bile ducts were exposed an...

The classic obstacles in the digital augmentation of everyday objects and appliances are usually situated around batteries, communication, size, and weight. Wired communication is often not possible, changing or charging batteries is generally considered a nuisance, and augmenting an appliance is usually not worth it if it means increasing its size or weight. For the subclass of devices an obje...

There are a variety of methods for treating unilateral vocal cord paralysis, but to date there have been few studies that compare these phonosurgical techniques by using objective measures of voice improvement. Vocal efficiency is an objective voice measure that is defined as the ratio of the acoustic power produced by the larynx to the subglottic air power. Vocal efficiency has been found to d...
