Diameter transition

For shafts that require sleeve gaskets to pass over threads, at least 1.5 mm (0.06 in.) radial clearance shall be provided between the threads and the internal diameter of the gasket, and the diameter transition shall be chamfered in accordance with 2.2.10. 

For porous sorbents, most of the surface area is not on the outside of the particle but on the inside pores of the sorbent (Figure 2.20) in complex, interconnected networks of micropores (diameters smaller than 2 nm), mesopores (2 to 50 nm), also known as transitional pores, and macropores (greater than 50 nm) [57], Most of the surface area is derived from the small-diameter micropores and the medium-diameter transitional pores [56], Porous sorbents vary in pore size, shape, and tortuosity [58] and are characterized by properties such as particle diameter, pore diameter, pore volume, surface areas, and particle-size distribution. 

Pore structure can markedly affect char reactivity. Coals in general are highly porous with a polymodal pore size distribution. Pores normally are classified into macropores (>500 A in diameter), transitional pores (20-500 A in diameter), and micropores (<20 A in diameter). Upon pyrolysis, the pores in the coal open up, but the, char still contains microporosity. Coal chars in general, and lignitic chars in particular, retain coal s polymodal pore distribution. Surface areas of coal chars are in the range 100-800 m2/g. Most of this surface area and, therefore, most of the active surface reside inside the pores, so accessibility of reactive gases to active sites is very important. 

The tests were run in multipurpose rocket test cells. An overall schematic of the ACR gas-yield test equipment is given in Figure 4. The full-scale equipment was manufactured from uncooled 304 stainless steel. A water-cooled burner was used to supply the cracking steam to the ACR test piece at commercial-scale flow rates, pressures, and temperature. The burner was mated to the ACR venturi test piece through a choked orifice and a diameter transition section. The reactor venturi consisted... 

Main steamline section and weld of the same Unit 4 f600 MW3 as above the weld connects 2 steamline sections of different materials (stainless steel and low-alloy steel) through a transition material section, ahead of the Y-piece where branching of the turbine inlet lines takes place (255 mm internal diameter, 44.5 mm thickness). Ultrasonic inspection pointed out potential integrity problems in the weld. The requirement was again that AE could support safe operation of the weld until the next incoming planned maintenance shutdown. 

The entropically driven disorder-order transition in hard-sphere fluids was originally discovered in computer simulations [58, 59]. The development of colloidal suspensions behaving as hard spheres (i.e., having negligible Hamaker constants, see Section VI-3) provided the means to experimentally verify the transition. Experimental data on the nucleation of hard-sphere colloidal crystals [60] allows one to extract the hard-sphere solid-liquid interfacial tension, 7 = 0.55 0.02k T/o, where a is the hard-sphere diameter [61]. This value agrees well with that found from density functional theory, 7 = 0.6 0.02k r/a 2 [21] (Section IX-2A). 

The CS pressures are close to the machine calculations in the fluid phase, and are bracketed by the pressures from the virial and compressibility equations using the PY approximation. Computer simulations show a fluid-solid phase transition tiiat is not reproduced by any of these equations of state. The theory has been extended to mixtures of hard spheres with additive diameters by Lebowitz [35], Lebowitz and Rowlinson [35], and Baxter [36]. 

Islands occur particularly with adsorbates that aggregate into two-dimensional assemblies on a substrate, leaving bare substrate patches exposed between these islands. Diffraction spots, especially fractional-order spots if the adsorbate fonns a superlattice within these islands, acquire a width that depends inversely on tire average island diameter. If the islands are systematically anisotropic in size, with a long dimension primarily in one surface direction, the diffraction spots are also anisotropic, with a small width in that direction. Knowing the island size and shape gives valuable infonnation regarding the mechanisms of phase transitions, which in turn pemiit one to leam about the adsorbate-adsorbate interactions.

The Equilibrium version was tested also on a 40 A diameter sphere of water with a switching function transition distance of 8 A to 13 A. There was in this case a slight rise in energy when At was 8 fs. 

The first polyatomic molecule was detected in 1968 with use of a telescope having a dish 6.3 m in diameter at Hat Creek, California, USA, designed to operate in the millimetre wave region. Emission lines were found in the 1.25 cm wavelength region due to NH3. The transitions are not rotational but are between the very closely spaced 2 = 0 and 2 = 1 levels of the inversion vibration V2 (see Section 6.2.5.4). 

Besides the chemical composition, porosity is another property of stone which has great influence on its preservation. An increased porosity increases the exposed surface and pores allow movement of materials such as water and its solutes through the stones. If the pores are blocked or reduced in diameter such substances may be trapped within resulting in increased local interior damage. Exposure to the climatic elements is one important source of decay. Freeze-thaw cycles, in particular, result in pressures on the pore walls of the stone s interior from changes in volume during the phase transition... 

In practice is a small number and the sing-around frequencies are scaled up for display. In one example, for a pipe 1 m in diameter and water flowing at 2 m/s, the frequency difference is 1.4 Hz (10). Frequency difference transit time meters provide greater resolution than normal transit time ultrasonic meters. The greatest appHcation is in sizes from 100 mm to 1 m diameter. 

A typical catalyst bed is very shallow (10 to 50 mm) (76,77). In some plants the catalyst is contained in numerous small parallel reactors in others, catalyst-bed diameters up to 1.7 and 2.0 m (77,80) and capacities of up to 135,000 t/yr per reactor are reported (78). The silver catalyst has a useful life of three to eight months and can be recovered. It is easily poisoned by traces of transition group metals and by sulfur. 

Reynolds Number. The Reynolds number, Ke, is named after Osborne Reynolds, who studied the flow of fluids, and in particular the transition from laminar to turbulent flow conditions. This transition was found to depend on flow velocity, viscosity, density, tube diameter, and tube length. Using a nondimensional group, defined as p NDJp, the transition from laminar to turbulent flow for any internal flow takes place at a value of approximately 2100. Hence, the dimensionless Reynolds number is commonly used to describe whether a flow is laminar or turbulent. Thus... 

The writing process, that is, the transition crystalline — amorphous, is caused by briefly (<50 100 ns) heating up the selected storage area (diameter (( )) ca 0.5—1 Hm) by a laser pulse to a temperature above the melting point of the memory layer (Eig. 15, Record), such that the film locally melts. When cooled faster than a critical quench rate (10 -10 ° K/s), the formation of crystalline nuclei is suppressed and the melted area sohdifies into the amorphous (glass-like) state.
