Maximum limit of size

Establishing a tolerance for a dimension has the effect of creating two extremes of size, or limits - a maximum limit of size and a minimum limit of size within which the dimension must be maintained. 

Maximum limit of size - the greater of the two limits of size. 

Upper deviation - the algebraic difference between the maximum limit of size and the corresponding basic size. 

Tolerance - the difference between the maximum limit of size and the minimum limit of size (or, in other words, the algebraic difference between the upper deviation and lower deviation). 

Water is allowed to enter the foam tank from the main stream with as little friction loss as possible, while pressure in the main stream is dropped about 10% through use of an orifice. Liquid in the tank is metered into the low pressure area by a second orifice. The pressure proportioning system offers the advantages of low pressure drop, automatic proportioning over a range of flows and pressures, freedom from external power and the absence of moving parts. Its disadvantages are that the concentrate cannot be resupplied while the system is in operation, the bladders tend to leak and there is an economic maximum limit on size. 

What is the relative volume occupied by the chopper If large growth is desired, does the formulation reach its maximum limit of granule size during latter stages of growth ... 

CAS). There may be an additional frozen core subspace in which each orbital is constrained to remain doubly occupied these core electrons and orbitals need not be treated explicitly in the RAS procedure (cf. section 2.4.7). The full Cl space may be obtained as the maximum limit of the RAS space. The focus of Olsen s paper was on the utility of the RAS method in limiting the size of Cl calculations, but thus far its maximum impact has been on the development of determinant-based full Cl algorithms.83 183... 

Limits of size - the maximum and minimum sizes permitted for a feature. 

One is sure that higher performance (e.g. increased production rate) will not be achieved even after carrying out maximum modifications because of inherent limitations of size, speed, heat transfer area, etc. (of existing equipment), which cannot be changed. However, one must consider the cost, time and efforts required for dismantling old equipment and ultimately replacing them by new ones.

In the above, the sum over N has the upper limit of mfinity. This is elearly eorreet in the thennodynamie limit. However, for a system with finite volume, V, depending on the hard eore size of its eonstituents, there will be a maximum number of partieles, M(V), that ean be paeked in volume V. Then, for all N siieh that N > M(V), the value of (-P ) beeomes infinity and all tenns in the N sum with N> M(V) vanish. Thus, provided the inter-partiele interaetions eontain a strongly repulsive part, the N sum in the above diseussion ean be extended to infinity. 

Bubbles can grow to on the order of a meter in diameter in Group B powders in large beds. The maximum stable bubble size is limited by the size of the vessel or the stabiUty of the bubble itself. In large fluidized beds, the limit to bubble growth occurs when the roof of the bubble becomes unstable and the bubble spHts. EmpidcaHy, it has been found that the maximum stable bubble size may be calculated for Group A particles from... 

Many finely divided metal powders in suspension in air are potential e] losion hazards, and causes for ignition of such dust clouds are numerous [Hartmann and Greenwald, Min. MetalL, 26, 331 (1945)]. Concentration of the dust in air and its particle size are important fac tors that determine explosibility. Below a lower Umit of concentration, no explosion can result because the heat of combustion is insufficient to propagate it. Above a maximum limiting concentration, an explosion cannot be produced because insufficient oxygen is available. The finer the particles, the more easily is ignition accomplished and the more rapid is the rate of combustion. This is illustrated in Fig. 20-7. 

In metals, inelastic deformation occurs at the crack tip, yielding a plastic zone. Smith [34] has argued that the elastic stress intensity factor is adequate to describe the crack tip field condition if the inelastic zone is limited in size compared with the near crack tip field, which is then assumed to dominate the crack tip inelastic response. He suggested that the inelastic zone be 1/5 of the size of the near crack tip elastic field (a/10). This restriction is in accordance with the generally accepted limitation on the maximum size of the plastic zone allowed in a valid fracture toughness test [35,36]. For the case of crack propagation, the minimum crack size for which continuum considerations hold should be at least 50 x (r ,J. 

Propeller mixers are used for mixing liquids with viscosities up to 2,000 cp. They are suitable for the formation of low-viscosity emulsions, for dissolving applications and for liquid-phase chemical reactions. For suspensions, the upper limit of particle size is 0.1 to 0.5 mm, with a maximum dry residue of 10%. 

It is important to note that back pressure affects balanced PR valve capacities in the same way as for conventional valves, and appropriate factors are included in the sizing procedures. They are subject to the same recommended limits of maximum total back pressure (superimposed plus built-up) as conventional valves. In the case of balanced bellows valves, mechanical considerations must also be evaluated, since they may limit the maximum permissible back pressure. 

A trial and error estimate is made for determining the diameter of the flare header based upon the maximum relieving flare load and considering the back pressure limitation of 10 percent for conventional valves and 40 percent for balanced type valves. Note, however, a single main header in most cases turns out to be too large to be economically feasible. Line sizing procedures are discussed in detail in the next subsection.
