Backward extension

This type of blade is well suited to streamline flow conditions and is used extensively on ventilating, air conditioning, and clean and dirty process gas streams. The backward blade does not catch dirt easily. The outstanding and important characteristic is the nonoverloading horsepower. This is the only commonly used blade style with this feature. It is important in process control and eliminates the need for oversized motors or other drivers. Speed of operation is high, which allows direct or belt connection to the driver. Certain streamlined blade designs provide the same basic characteristics with more efficient and quieter operation. The usual... [Pg.550]

A family of vacuum-tube MMW sources is based on the propagation of an electron beam through a so-called slow-wave or periodic structure. Radiation propagates on the slow-wave structure at the speed of the electron beam, allowing the beam and radiation field to interact. Devices in this category are the traveling-wave tube (TWT), the backward-wave oscillator (BWO) and the extended interaction oscillator (EIO) klystron. TWTs are characterized by wide bandwidths and intermediate power output. These devices operate well at frequencies up to 100 GHz. BWOs, so called because the radiation within the vacuum tube travels in a direction opposite to that of the electron beam, have very wide bandwidths and low output powers. These sources operate at frequencies up to 1.3 THz and are extensively used in THZ spectroscopic applications [10] [11] [12]. The EIO is a high-power, narrow band tube that has an output power of 1 kW at 95 GHz and about 100 W at 230 GHz. It is available in both oscillator and amplifier, CW and pulsed versions. This source has been extensively used in MMW radar applications with some success [13]. [Pg.248]

A new version is backward-compatible from a user s point of view. The new material is only an extension of the old. If the contents are program code, then the code may be different, but it should at least meet the previous version s spec. [Pg.340]

Since X is a random variable, this extension of (6.29) to / x is not necessarily obvious. However, by working backwards from (6.177), it is possible to show that this definition is the only choice which permits f% to remain uniform. [Pg.313]

Future developments in energy technology can alter the relative economics of nuclear, hydrocarbon, solar, wind, and other methods of energy generation. Conservation if practiced extensively as a replacement to hydrocarbon and nuclear power means a major step backward for our modern world. [Pg.145]

The first line is known as the Shannon-McMUlan-Breiman theorem [1], the second is its extension for stationary states which are not time-reversal symmetric. The entropy per unit time h characterizes the dynamical randomness of the process. The faster the decay of the path probabilities, the larger the proliferation of these paths as time increases. Therefore, the larger the entropy per unit time h, the higher the temporal disorder of the time evolution. The time-reversed entropy per unit time characterizes the decay of the time reversals of the typical paths in a similar way, and it thus characterizes the dynamical randomness of the backward paths. [Pg.115]

The first observation was the more unexpected because we were under the mistaken impression that the locus coeruleus should turn on, not off, in REM. But once we realized that we had the role of norepinephrine backwards, it was not difficult to find other REM-off cells—not only in the locus coeruleus, but also in the raphe nuclei—and to see that both of the pontine aminergic neuromodulators supported waking just as any extension of Hess s principles would suggest. Even the central sympathetic system works toward ergotrophic ends. Eor sleep to occur, this system must first be deactivated to allow NREM sleep to develop, and then actively suppressed, to allow REM to develop. [Pg.147]

M 83] [P 72] When pulsing both inlet flow rates in-phase, the degree of mixing is only 19%, being 13% lower than for one-inlet-flow pulsing (see Pulsed flow for the perpendicular inlet) [26], The two fluids are basically flowing side-by-side, albeit moved forwards and backwards. The interface is not stretched extensively by this action. [Pg.232]

Extensive use has been made of classical trajectory methods to investigate various forms of the potential-energy surface for the reaction F + H2. Muckerman [518] has recently presented a very thorough review of potential-energy surfaces and classical trajectory studies for F + H2. The calculations all correctly predict vibrational population inversion, the value of and backward scattering of the products. Most calculations overestimate (FR) and those giving the lowest values of (Fr > use a potential-energy surface that unrealistically has wells in the entrance and exit valleys [519]. [Pg.463]

The BDF method is ascribed to Curtiss k Hirschfelder [188], who described it in 1952, although Bickley [88] had essentially, albeit briefly, mentioned it already in 1941. Considering Fig. 4.3, the method can be seen as a multipoint extension of BI the derivative y is formed by using a number k of points from y. k i > to yn+1, but referred to the new point yn+. This implies a backward derivative, with formulas of the form y n(n) as in Appendix A, Table A.l. For example, using the three points shown in Fig. 4.3 (in other words, k = 3), the table yields the formula... [Pg.57]

Wilson and Liu showed that both location and travel time probabilities can be calculated directly, using a backward-in-time version of traditional continuum advection-dispersion modeling. In addition, they claimed that by choosing the boundary conditions properly, the method can be readily generalized to include linear adsorption with kinetic effects and 1st order decay. An extension of their study for a 2D heterogeneous aquifer was reported in Liu and Wilson [39]. The results for travel time probability are in very close agreement with the simulation results from traditional forward-in-time methods. [Pg.82]
