Electrical resistivity saturation

Elkassabgi and Lienhard (1988) provided an extensive subcooled pool boiling CHF data set of 631 observations on cylindical electric resistance heaters ranging from 0.80 to 1.54 mm (0.03 to 0.06 in.) in diameter with four liquids (isopropanol, acetone, methanol, and Freon-113) at atmospheric pressure and up to 140°C (252°F) subcooling. They normalized <7 ritsub data by Sun and Lienhard s (1970) saturated q"Tix SL prediction in terms of B,... 

Hu et al. showed a decrease in electrical resistivity of PVA by four orders of magnitude with a percolation threshold of 6 wt% [68], while biodegradable polylactide-graphene nanocomposites were prepared with a percolation threshold as low as 3 5wt% [46]. For polystyrene-graphene composites, percolation occurred at only 0.1 °/o of graphene filler, a value three times lower than those for other 2D-filler [69]. Figure 6.7(b) shows the variation of conductivity of the polystyrene-graphene composite with filler content. A sharp increase in conductivity occurs at 0.1 % (the percolation threshold) followed by a saturation. The inset shows the four probe set up for in-plane and trans-... 

The problem of gas bubbles is to be added to the resistive effect of mechanical separators [12-14]. H2 and O2 are formed at the surface of the electrodes facing the separator. Hence the solution between electrode and diaphragm becomes saturated with gas bubbles that reduce the volume occupied by the electrolyte, thus incrementing the electrical resistance of the solution. In the conventional cell configuration, IR can be minimized, once the electrolyte and the separator are fixed, only by minimizing the distance between the anode and cathode. However, a certain distance between the electrode and separator must be necessarily maintained.

Electrical moisture meters provide a quick and reasonably accurate nondestructive alternative. The direct-current resistance of the timber is measured or either the alternating-current capacitance or power loss can be measured. Direct-current resistance moisture meters are more common a pair of needles, a fixed distance apart, is driven into the wood across or along the grain (depending on the manufacturer s instructions) and the electrical resistance measured. The procedure is reasonably accurate between the fibre saturation point (defined later) at 30% and about 6% moisture content (at which point the resistance becomes too great to measure with reasonable accuracy). In this moisture content range, the relationship between electrical resistance and moisture content is represented by a log-log plot. 

The properties of the membrane hydrolyzed with 10 % sodium hyroxide were measured, and a saturated sodium chloride solution was electrolyzed using this membrane. The results are given in Table I. For comparison, the sulfonyl chloride-type membrane was treated in n-butyl alcohol at 110 °C for 3 hours without introducing air. The treated membrane was subjected to hydrolysis treatment in a methanol solution containing 10 % of sodium hydroxide. Electric resistance of the membrane was 450 —cm, and the current efficiency could not be measured. 

Electric resistance was measured on the membrane which was placed partitioning 3.5 N NaCl solution to its one side and 6.0 N NaOH solution to the other side at 85 °C and the solutions were electrolyzed. The electrolysis was carried out by using a saturated solution of sodium chloride as an anolyte, a titanium lath...
