Minimum material condition

Minimum material condition - where least material remains on the workpiece, i.e. lower limit of a shaft or upper limit of a hole. 

Limit gauges are arranged so that the GO portion of the gauge checks the maximum material condition (Le. the upper limit of the shaft or lower limit of the hole) while the NOT GO portion of the gauge checks the minimum material condition (i.e. the lower limit of the shaft or upper limit of the hole). 

The NOT GO end checks only that the effective diameter is not too large (i.e. minimum material condition). 

The size of a separating element or the number of parallel elements necessary is proportional to the flow. The minimum reflux condition, Equations 18-20, shows that the area of the separation cascade or the amount of material to be processed at any point varies inversely with c. The minimum total size of the plant varies as c or (a — 1) There is a big premium on high separation factors. 

The pressure factor for horizontal and vertical process (pressurized) vessels of diameter D meters and operating at a pressure of P barg is based on the ASME code for pressure vessel design [5]. At base material conditions using a maximum allowable stress for carbon steel, S, of 944 bar, a weld efficiency, E, of 0.9, a minimum allowable vessel thickness of 0.0063 m (1/4 inch), and a corrosion allowance, CA, of 0.00315 m (1/8 inch) gives the following expression ... 

The general criterion of chemical reaction equiUbria is the same as that for phase equiUbria, namely that the total Gibbs energy of a closed system be a minimum at constant, uniform T and P (eq. 212). If the T and P of a siagle-phase, chemically reactive system are constant, then the quantities capable of change are the mole numbers, n. The iadependentiy variable quantities are just the r reaction coordinates, and thus the equiUbrium state is characterized by the rnecessary derivative conditions (and subject to the material balance constraints of equation 235) where j = 1,11,.. ., r ... 

Acute Toxicity Studies. These studies should provide the following information the nature of any local or systemic adverse effects occurring as a consequence of a single exposure to the test material an indication of the exposure conditions producing the adverse effects, in particular, information on dose—response relationships, including minimum and no-effects exposure levels and data of use in the design of short-term repeated exposure studies.
