Variable grids

The staggered veiocity grid ceii surface points coincide with center nodes in the scaiar grid, so no interpoiation is needed for the scaiar grid variables. 

The staggered grid variables are expressed in terms of the node values in the scalar grid ... 

The scalar variables at the staggered grid surface are expressed in terms of the node values in the scalar grid. The derivatives of staggered grid variables are approximated by use of the central difference scheme ...

Utdity power distribution grids normally operate at a fixed frequency of 50 or 60 Hz. These frequencies can be utilized directiy for the induction process if the load characteristics are appropriate. If they are not, specific appHcations can be optimized by the use of variable and higher frequencies produced by soHd-state frequency power converters connected between the supply and the load.

Subdivision or discretization of the flow domain into cells or elements. There are methods, called boundary element methods, in which the surface of the flow domain, rather than the volume, is discretized, but the vast majority of CFD work uses volume discretization. Discretization produces a set of grid lines or cuives which define a mesh and a set of nodes at which the flow variables are to be calculated. The equations of motion are solved approximately on a domain defined by the grid. Curvilinear or body-fitted coordinate system grids may be used to ensure that the discretized domain accurately represents the true problem domain. 

A simple, rapid and seleetive eleetroehemieal method is proposed as a novel and powerful analytieal teehnique for the solid phase determination of less than 4% antimony in lead-antimony alloys without any separation and ehemieal pretreatment. The proposed method is based on the surfaee antimony oxidation of Pb/Sb alloy to Sb(III) at the thin oxide layer of PbSOyPbO that is formed by oxidation of Pb and using linear sweep voltammetrie (LSV) teehnique. Determination was earried out in eoneentrate H SO solution. The influenee of reagent eoneentration and variable parameters was studied. The method has deteetion limit of 0.056% and maximum relative standard deviation of 4.26%. This method was applied for the determination of Sb in lead/aeid battery grids satisfaetory. 

Figure 3 shows the substantial spatial variability in NFlj emissions, particularly in source regions. It is clear that maps at a lower resolution, which are often made (e.g. 20 km grids for the 150 km grids for Europewill artificially smooth... 

Moreover, high-temperature variation may result in large variations in the resistance of the grid and may vary the performance of a variable-speed drive if care is not exercised in selecting a proper alloy of the resistance. An alloy such as aluminium-chrome steel should be preferred when it is required to perform a speed control or a speed varitition. as discussed above.
