Lower, implied operation

Double-resonance spectroscopy involves the use of two different sources of radiation. In the context of EPR, these usually are a microwave and a radiowave or (less common) a microwave and another microwave. The two combinations were originally called ENDOR (electron nuclear double resonance) and ELDOR (electron electron double resonance), but the development of many variations on this theme has led to a wide spectrum of derived techniques and associated acronyms, such as ESEEM (electron spin echo envelope modulation), which is a pulsed variant of ENDOR, or DEER (double electron electron spin resonance), which is a pulsed variant of ELDOR. The basic principle involves the saturation (partially or wholly) of an EPR absorption and the subsequent transfer of spin energy to a different absorption by means of the second radiation, leading to the detection of the difference signal. The requirement of saturability implies operation at close to liquid helium, or even lower, temperatures, which, combined with long experimentation times, produces a... 

The outline shown in Fig. 5.79B indicates how this may be achieved. The figure assumes that reversible fuel cells are available in 2050, without the current problem of lower reversed operation efficiency than conventional elec-trolysers. The higher efficiency of fuel cells relative to current power plants implies that if waste heat should cover space and hot water heat requirements, these should be provided by more efficient means than the present ones. 

The contribution that Hocking wished to make was to refine the sensor system and the instrumentation paekage so as to be able to incorporate the necessary functionality within a lightweight portable battery operated instrument. This implied a lower power level and very low-noise instrumentation. We aimed also for a low cost instrument able to operate for several hours from fully charged batteries and able to operate at a pull speed of 500mm/second. 

Overfire air (OFA) is often used in conjunction with LNBs. As the name implies, OFA is injected into the furnace above the normal combustion zone. It is added to ensure complete combustion when the burners are operated at an air-to-fuel ratio that is lower than normal. 

At present the NSR concept is only applicable in markets where low-sulfur fuels (30 ppm S or less) are available, such as in Japan and Sweden. The first NSR catalyst was applied by Toyota in 1994 and currently (end of 2000) about 300.000 cars in Japan have been equipped with it. As the sulfur specifications of fuels is to be tightened, NSR technology will find wider application, as it allows gasoline-fueled engines to operate under conditions of increased fuel efficiency, implying that CO2 emissions will be lower. 

The incorporation of all the possible process alternatives for improvement, allows the processing of higher sulfur containing feeds, meets specifications, operates reliably and in a more flexible manner, under lower severity regimes. Not all the improvements apply in the same manner to all HDT units, and some of them will not represent any enhancement or are not feasible for some existing units. On the other hand, the interconnection and interdependence among them implies that careful optimization is needed for their implementation. 

In Fig.la a lower slope ((j)=2.25) and higher Intercept (g=1.32) Is obtained for the low pressure region as compared to the slope (((>=2.60) and Intercept (g=1.09) for high pressure region. Since from Eq(13), a value of g close to 1 implies adherence to the solution-diffusion model. It appears that at low pressures where g = 1.32>1.0, a combined model of viscous and diffusive flow Is operative. This correlates with previous SEM studies In our laboratory (unpublished), where mlcro-pln holes were postulated to exist In the skin. The presence of such m-LcAO-p-Ln hoZ 6 In the surface can be used to explain the high g-value. Above 10 atm, the DDS-990 membrane Is compressed or compacted and the mlcro-pln holes filled. Thus g = l.O l.O implies adherence to the solution-diffusion model. 

One of the reasons why the pair of decreasing values of 0, with a fixed value of 03 leads to increasing profit is due to the decrease in production shortfalls and, at the same time, increase in production surpluses. Typically, the fixed penalty cost for shortfalls is lower than surpluses. A good start would be to select a lower operating value of 0 j to achieve both high model feasibility as well as increased profit. Moreover, lower values of 03 correspond to decreasing variation in the recourse penalty costs, which implies solution robustness. 

Superficially, eqs. (3.1.11-12) seem to imply that diagonalization could be achieved in n(n - l)/2 steps. However, every time a rotation is used to set a specific At to zero, previously zeroed elements in the same row and column will be destroyed. This observation also hints at the proper selection of which element to eliminate in each step It is wasteful to spend operations on a rotation to eliminate a very small element which will anyway later get destroyed, so we should eliminate one of the largest elements. The best choice is usually the largest element however, for any but the smallest matrices, it takes more time to search for the largest element than to perform the rotation. Common practice is to simply loop over all elements in a predetermined order, but to slap the rotation for elements which fall below a certain threshold. This threshold is then successively lowered before each such sweep. Its value is based on the non-diagonality measure (3.1.6) (due to . Neumann) or some other convenient measure.
