Because the reaction takes place in the Hquid, the amount of Hquid held in the contacting vessel is important, as are the Hquid physical properties such as viscosity, density, and surface tension. These properties affect gas bubble size and therefore phase boundary area and diffusion properties for rate considerations. Chemically, the oxidation rate is also dependent on the concentration of the anthrahydroquinone, the actual oxygen concentration in the Hquid, and the system temperature (64). The oxidation reaction is also exothermic, releasing the remaining 45% of the heat of formation from the elements. Temperature can be controUed by the various options described under hydrogenation. Added heat release can result from decomposition of hydrogen peroxide or direct reaction of H2O2 and hydroquinone (HQ) at a catalytic site (eq. 19).

Blog Entry 2 At 250mA, your lamp is unlikely to be solid-state. Incandescent lamps may draw considerably more current than you think at startup, if the element temperature is not at thermal equilibrium. Though one Hertz is fairly fast for thermal effects, it is worth keeping an eye on.

The origin of the pyroelectric effect, particularly in crystalline materials, is due to the relative motions of oppositely charged ions in the unit cell of the crystal as the temperature is varied. The phase transformation of the crystal from a ferroelectric state to a paraelectrlc state involves what is called a "soft phonon" mode (9 1). In effect, the excursions of the ions in the unit cell increase as the temperature of the material approaches the phase transition temperature or Curie temperature, T. The Curie temperature for the material used here, LiTaO, is 618 C (95). The properties of a large number of different pyroelectric materials is available through reference 87. For the types of studies envisaged here, it is preferable to use a pyroelectric material whose pyroelectric coefficient, p(T), is as weakly temperature dependent as possible. The reason for this is that if p(T) is independent of temperature, then the induced current in the associated electronic circuit will be independent of ambient temperature and will be a function only of the time rate of change of the pyroelectric element temperature. To see this, suppose p(T) is replaced by pQ. Then Equation U becomes...

With few exceptions, graphite furnaces and flame atomizers are both limited to use with liquid samples and are capable of effectively atomizing only a fraction of the elements. Graphite furnace determinations require optimization of instrumental conditions for each element (temperature programme, observation time) in order to obtain optimal results. Thus, multielement analysis is compromised. In addition, the GF-AAS techniques suffer from inter-element interferences and background absorption which must be overcome.

Each discretization element i consists of an element temperature T, and a lumped heat capacity, . Neighboring elements are linked by a thermal resistance representing thermal conductivity. Heat exchange with environment comprises radiation and convection. Internal heat generation is expressed by irreversible losses P,. For our simulations, a discretization with = 10 is used, which has turn out to be a good compromise between accuracy and computational effort. 

The operational principle of a thermal sensor is based on the relationship between the heat transfer firom the sensor exposed to the flowing fluid and the shear stress. For the heat transfer to take place, the sensor element temperature must differ from the temperature of the flowing medium, i.e., the sensor is raised to a temperature above the medium temperature. The thermal sensor forms one of the resistances of a Wheatstone bridge circuit (see Fig. la). The resistance of the thermal sensor is given by... 

Subchannel analysis codes, ASFRE for single-phase flow and SABENA for two-phase flow, have been developed for the purpose of predicting fuel element temperature and thermalhydraulic characteristics in the FBR fuel assemblies. ASFRE has the detailed wire-spacer model called distributed flow resistance model, which calculates the effect of wire-spacer on thermalhydraulics. Also planer and porous blockage models are implemented for fuel assembly accident analysis. In this reporting period, three dimensional thermal conduction model was used for the evaluation of local blockage in a fuel assembly. In addition, the comparison of pressure losses in the assembly with the water experimental data has been performed. Regarding SABENA, based on the two-fluid model, no activity is reported.

Due to its universal applicability and excellent safety features, the modular HTR power plant is suitable for erection on any site, but particularly on sites near other industrial plants or in densely populated areas. TTie principal safety feature of the HTR-Module is based on the fact that, even in the case of failure of all active cooling systems and complete loss of coolant, the fuel element temperatures remain within limits at which there is virtually no release of radioactive fission products from the fuel elements, due to ... 

The use of spherical fuel elements, which are capable of retaining all radiologically relevant fission products up to fuel element temperatures of approx. 1600°C with an appropriately designed core. 

In all accidents and accident combinations, a maximum fuel element temperature of approx. 1600°C is not exceeded even without active removal of the decay heat from the core. Decay heat removal can be effected solely by heat conduction, heat radiation, and natural convection to the cavity coolers positioned outside the reactor pressure vessel. 

Inherent (i.e. intrinsic) safety feature" is a specialized term used in this case to describe the fact that the reactor itself reacts to certain malfunctions without the actuation of active systems or external controlling interventions in such a way that no inadmissible or even dangerous situations can be reached. These reactions are governed by the laws of nature, i.e. they always function regardless of the condition of active systems. This means that they cannot malfunction or fail. The technical and nuclear physical design of the HTR-Module is such that the maximum fuel element temperature always stabilizes itself below 1600°C even in the case of assumed failure of all active shutdown and decay heat removal systems. 

On the one hand, this is achieved by the fact that there is a temperature span of approx. 700 C between the maximum permissible fuel element temperature of 1600°C and the maximum operating temperamre of the fuel elements. This temperature span ensures that the reactor core shuts itself down via the negative temperature coefficients of reactivity, even after accident-incurred introduction of any existing surplus reactivity.
