Liquid conductivities increase with pressure. The conductivity at pressure 2 can be calculated from that at pressure by the Lenoir method proposed in 1957 ... 

Average errors are 5 percent when this equation is used. For pressures greater than 3.4 MPa, the thermal conduclivity from Eq. (2-135) may be corrected by the technique suggested by Lenoir. The correction faclor is the ratio of conductivity factors F/F, where F is at the desired temperature and higher pressure, and F is at the same temperature and lower pressure (usually atmospheric). The conduclivity Factors are calculated from ... 

Accidents involving fire have occurred ever since man began to use flammable liquids or gases as fuels. Summaries of such accidents are given by Davenport (1977), Strehlow and Baker (1976), Lees (1980), and Lenoir and Davenport (1993). The presence of flammable gases or liquids can result in a BLEVE or flash fire or, if sufficient fuel is available, a vapor cloud explosion.

In France in 1862, Beau de Rochas outlined the principles of the four-stroke engine so common today. ITowever, he never transformed those principles into hardware. Among the improvements proposed by de Rochas was compression of the charge prior to combustion. In contrast, the charge in the Lenoir engine was essentially at atmospheric pressure when combustion was initiated. 

The efficiency of the 1860 Lenoir engine was no more than 5 percent. An efficiency of 14 percent was...

Kary Banks Mullis (1944-) was bom in rural Lenoir, North Carolina did undergraduate work at Georgia Tech. and ieceived his Ph.O. at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1973. From 1979 to 1986 he worked at Cetus Corp., where his wor on developing PCR was carried out. Since 1988, he has followed his own drummer as self-employed consultant and writer. He received the 1993 Nobel Prize in chemistry. 

Lenoir and Robillard (L2) have developed a theoretical analysis based on this approach which yields the following expression ... 

There has been some question as to whether it is even meaningful to maintain the distinction between the two types of effect see Grob, C.A. Helv. Chim. Acta, 1985, 68, 882 Lenoir, D. Frank, R.M. Chem. Ben, 1985, 118, 753 Sacher, E. Tetrahedron, Lett, 1986, 27, 4683.
