Figure 26.34 can be used to find the soil loss ratio due to the slope of the site as used in the Universal Soil Loss Equation. Loss from wind erosion can be determined by the following equation ... 

The use of a multiventuri system (in which an inner venturi discharges into the throat of an outer venturi) to increase both the differential pressure for a given flow rate and the signal-to-loss ratio is described by Klomp ana Sovran [/. Basic Eng., 94, 39 5 (1972)].

The curves on the right are enlargements of the two bands the effect of absorption on the lowest frequency band is shown in the upper right. From P. Affolter and B. Eliasson, IEEE Trans. Microwave Theory Tech., MTT-21 (1973), 573-578 1973 IEEE.

We first calculate the dimensionless heat-loss ratio for the infinite plate and infinite cylinder which make up the multidimensional body. For the plate we have L = 5 cm = 0.05 m. Using the properties of aluminum from Example 4-8, we calculate... 

In the early stages of the decomposition when Reaction 1 is predominant, the oxygen-to-weight loss ratio would be at its highest and diminish as the concentration of NOCIO4 increases and Reaction 2 becomes significant. A reverse trend would be expected for the N02-to-weight loss ratio. 

Of the various parameters which affect the particle loss ratio fl defined in Equation (6), under conditions of negligible electrostatic repulsion, we have found that the total initial particle concentration (where NTQT = Nq +N ), the size of the... 

Interpretation for Comminuted Systems. The similarities and differences noted for the kinetics of formaldehyde removal from UF and PF particleboards and from formaldehyde-sorbed wood are brought out more clearly by plotting relative formaldehyde losses versus time. Loss ratios, i.e., formaldehyde loss by any material divided by the UF board loss at the same time, are shown in Figures 10 and 11 included in Figure 10 are analogous ratios for resin data from formaldehyde liberation (weighing bottle test) and formaldehyde elution by toluene experiments (10). Examination of the data leads to the following additional comments ...

A 0.4 percent ethanol content in the stillage and an 8 percent ethanol content in the feed calculates as a 5 percent overall ethanol loss. (If the feed were only 4-6 percent ethanol concentration, the loss ratio will be much higher). A 5 percent continuous loss would mean a substantial loss of profit. The 0.4 percent loss level should not necessarily be considered as a desired loss level, but rather as a typical illustration (see Table 3).

However, the representation of the momentum gain-to-loss ratio at the bottom of Fig. 10 makes it obvious that the evolution of this quantity toward the value 1 takes place much faster. The almost complete compensation of the momentum gain and loss is reached much earlier, at about 10 s, and this happens nearly independent of the field strength. This evolution is largely in agreement with the magnitude and the weak energy dependence of the lumped frequency for momentum dissipation by collisions in neon presented above in Fig. 8.
