This study applies a new method and technology to measure the discharge in a lined canal in Taiwan. An Acoustic Digital Current Meter mounted on a measurement platform is used to measure the velocities over the full cross-section for establishing the measurement method. The proposed method primarily employs Chiu’s Equation which is based on entropy to establish a constant ratio the relation bet...

The discharge muffler of the rotary compressor is used to reduce the discharge noise produced by pressure pulsations. In order to obtain the transmission loss of discharge muffler, four microphone experimental devices used to measure the transmission loss of the muffler is established. The device is based on the transfer function method on the assumption that there is only plane wave in the tub...

background: the management of neonatal sepsis especially in developing countries is problematic.  there is no single reliable marker of infection available at the present.  c-reactive protein (crp) has long been used as a marker of infection. serial measurements of crp are recommended as a guide for duration of antibiotic therapy.   objective: to evaluate the serial crp measurement as a guideli...

This paper describes the development of a partial discharge measurement system that utilises a multiplexed approach to ultra-high-frequency monitoring on many pieces of equipment using a single cable loop connected to only two sampling channels. It is envisioned that the system could be used in partial discharge monitoring of medium voltage metal-enclosed switchgear, or several power transforme...

Partial Discharge monitoring provides a tool for the assessment of failure risk for high voltage plant and equipment. The measurement process is complicated by the presence of interference, transients and other sources of disturbance on the system. In practical monitoring systems these disturbances almost certainly fall outside the boundaries of any expert system for PD recognition. Because of ...
