COMPARISONS OF METHODS

In short, micrometeorological methods generally meet the nondivergence criterion more frequently than do surface sampling methods satisfy representativeness for the surrounding area. [Pg.926]

There are two important reasons for comparing the performance of different particle sizing techniques/instruments for a particular apphcation. First, it is necessary to establish their reliability or, in the case of certain instruments, to verify that they are capable of yielding substantially the same particle size or PSD. The degree of success depends not only on the techniques in question but also on the nature of the system to which they are applied. Second, it may become clear that the use of two (or more) different measurement techniques to characterize a given kind of material may yield additional information that might not be obtainable from a single analysis method and which therefore would otherwise be overlooked. [Pg.207]

In the polymer field, by the natiue of the production process, it is obviously important to be able to determine the end-point of the reaction. It is therefore necessary to choose a particle sizing technique that is appropriate and effective, one that can yield reliable and acciuate measures of the mean diameter and standard deviation of colloidal, mostly-submicron emulsions. In production environments it is particularly important that the size analysis instrument be fast, easy to use and able to reveal reproducibly the trend of particle growth diuing the polymerization reaction, so the operator can change production parameters based on these real-time results. [Pg.207]

The ensemble techniques of LD (Section 8.4.1.1) and DLS (Section 8.4.1.2) are capable of providing the required information in a relative short time, and therefore they are often used in both production environments and research facilities. Both the LD and DLS techniques typically yield enough information to determine whether the desired end-point was achieved, both during the reaction and after. However, DLS is often chosen over LD because the answers that it produces quickly and reliably - the intensity-weighted mean diameter and standard deviation (typically using the method of cumulants) - require no knowledge of particle parameters. By contrast, LD-based instruments require that both [Pg.207]

The CHDF technique (Section 8.4.2.2) is capable of providing very accurate size distribution information for dilute polymer emulsions containing more than one peak in the PSD. However, it cannot be used to analyze soft polymers, due to particle retention problems. This technique is used more frequently in research/QC labs than in production environments, because it requires significant operator expertise and experience. [Pg.208]

By comparison, the HOST centrifugation technique (Section 8.4.2.1) is much more operator friendly and therefore is attractive for both R D and production applications. It can measure relatively concentrated emulsions, which may be an important advantage in cases where an emulsion becomes coUoidaUy imstable upon dilution. A potentially significant disadvantage of this technique is that one measurement may require several hours of centrifugation, making it less useful in production situations where fast decisions are required. On the other hand, in R D environments it can prove to be very attractive, since multiple samples (e.g. 12) can be analyzed at the same time. [Pg.208]

To ensure a constant-flux layer one can simply move the measurement height closer to the surface. For the eddy correlation method, however, the response time of the instrument must be faster as the measurement height approaches the surface, because high-frequency turbulent eddies then contribute proportionally more to the concentration fluxes than at higher levels. On the other hand, fluxes measured very close to the surface may be less representative of those over the entire area for which the measurement is intended. For the gradient method, the requirement that z/zq 1 (based on the requirements of similarity [Pg.980]

A complicating factor in dry deposition measurements is the presence of sources of the depositing substance in the footprint of the measurement. Whereas the flux of SO2 is nearly always unidirectional (downward) and the surface is a sink for SO2, gases such as H2S, NH i, and NO, may have surface sources. It may be possible in some cases to specify a surface emission rate. For NO2, the situation appears to be even more complex than just adding a surface emission rate to the resistance model. As much as 50% of the NO2 initially removed at the surface can reappear as NO as a result of surface emissions (Meyers and Baldocchi, 1988). [Pg.981]

The assumptions of similarity weaken as one moves from flat and uniform surfaces into hilly terrain and associated natural surface covers (Doran et al., 1989). Fluxes are likely to change substantially over rather short distances (1 km or less), and it may be extremely difficult to establish a representative flux value for more extended regions from measurements at a single site. Some measurements have been carried out over sloping terrain, and methods have been developed to take into account the effects of such slopes in the determination of flux values (McMillen, 1988). However, there is presently no generally useful method for establishing flux values over rough terrain. [Pg.981]

A further insight is that the best workflow depends on a combination of factors that can in many cases be expressed in closed mathematical form, allowing very rapid graphical feedback to users of what then becomes a visualization rather than a stochastic simulation tool. This particular approach is effective for simple binary comparisons of methods (e.g., use of in vitro alone vs. in silico as prefilter to in vitro). It can also be extended to evaluation of conditional sequencing for groups of compounds, using an extension of the sentinel approach [24]. [Pg.268]

TITRATIONS FOR COMPARISON OF METHODS. The automated photometric and turbidimetric methods were compared using 30 cm3 samples of surfactant solution containing a nominal 20 mol SDBS to give an equivalence volume of 5 cm3. The effect of salinity on the titrations was studied using samples prepared containing sodium chloride concentrations of 0.0, 0.14, 0.70 and 1.46 wt%. The influence of the choice of filter (580 or 620 nm) was also investigated. [Pg.264]

The Student s (W.S. Gossett) /-lest is useful for comparisons of the means and standard deviations of different analytical test methods. Descriptions of the theory and use of this statistic are readily available in standard statistical texts including those in the references [1-6]. Use of this test will indicate whether the differences between a set of measurement and the true (known) value for those measurements is statistically meaningful. For Table 36-1 a comparison of METHOD B test results for each of the locations is compared to the known spiked analyte value for each sample. This statistical test indicates that METHOD B results are lower than the known analyte values for Sample No. 5 (Lab 1 and Lab 2), and Sample No. 6 (Lab 1). METHOD B reported value is higher for Sample No. 6 (Lab 2). Average results for this test indicate that METHOD B may result in analytical values trending lower than actual values. [Pg.183]

For Table 36-2, a comparison of METHOD A results for each of the locations is made to the known spiked analyte value for each sample. This statistical test indicates that METHOD A results are lower than the known analyte values for Sample Nos. 4-6 for both Lab 1 and Lab 2. Average results for this test indicate that METHOD A is consistently lower than actual values. [Pg.183]
