La sensibilite aux defauts et autres parametres de controle peut etre amelioree par le choix optimal de la sonde. II apparait, apres etudes des differents types de sondes (ferritiques, acier doux, isolant) avec des geometries differentes (plate, conique,. ..), necessaires de souligner que le succes d une recherche de faisabilite depend en grande partie de la bonne definition des capteurs de mesure, de telle sorte que ceux-ci soient adaptes au probleme considere. 

An experimental teclmique that is usefiil for structure studies of biological macromolecules and other crystals with large unit cells uses neither the broad, white , spectrum characteristic of Lane methods nor a sharp, monocliromatic spectrum, but rather a spectral band with AX/X 20%. Because of its relation to the Lane method, this teclmique is called quasi-Laue. It was believed for many years diat the Lane method was not usefiil for structure studies because reflections of different orders would be superposed on the same point of a film or an image plate. It was realized recently, however, that, if there is a definite minimum wavelengdi in the spectral band, more than 80% of all reflections would contain only a single order. Quasi-Laue methods are now used with both neutrons and x-rays, particularly x-rays from synclirotron sources, which give an intense, white spectrum. 

The strength of the ion current relates to the number of ions per second arriving at the collector plate, and a mass spectrum can be regarded as a snapshot of the current taken over a definite period of time. Because of the finite time taken to produce a mass spectrum, it is a record of the abundances of ions (often mistakenly called intensities of ions). 

Most distillation systems ia commercial columns have Murphree plate efficiencies of 70% or higher. Lower efficiencies are found under system conditions of a high slope of the equiHbrium curve (Fig. lb), of high Hquid viscosity, and of large molecules having characteristically low diffusion coefficients. FiaaHy, most experimental efficiencies have been for biaary systems where by definition the efficiency of one component is equal to that of the other component. For multicomponent systems it is possible for each component to have a different efficiency. Practice has been to use a pseudo-biaary approach involving the two key components. However, a theory for multicomponent efficiency prediction has been developed (66,67) and is amenable to computational analysis. 

Corrosion Resistance. The environment to which a plated part is to be exposed should be a part of any definition of corrosion resistance. Problems arise in testing a part in its intended environment in part because of the long time period required. In many plating processes, corrosion resistance is direcdy proportional to the plate thickness, so a specification on plate thickness is a much faster method of indirectiy measuring corrosion resistance. In specifying a corrosion resistance requirement for the production of plated goods, accelerated tests are used especially if plate thicknesses caimot be related to corrosion protection. 

Tray Efficiencies in Plate Absorbers and Strippers Compn-tations of the nnmber of theoretical plates N assnme that the hqnia on each plate is completely mixed and that the vapor leaving the plate is in eqnihbrinm with the liqnid. In actnal practice a condition of complete eqnihbrinm cannot exist since interphase mass transfer reqnires a finite driving-force difference. This leads to the definition of an overall plate efficiency... 

Theoretical Predictive Methods Tbe approach to equilibrium on a plate may be defined as tbe ratio of tbe aclual change in gas composition as it passes through tbe plate to tbe change that would have occurred if tbe gas bad reached a state of equibbrium with tbe liqmd. If a point on plate n is considered, this definition leads to tbe point efficiency ... 

Now, as equilibrium is maintained in the plate (p) by definition, the mass (dm) will bfe distributed between the two phases, resulting in a solute concentration change of dXm(p) in the mobile phase and dXs(p) in the stationary phase. Then,... 

The characteristics of the pump relate the applied pressure on the cake to the flowrate at the exit face of the filter medium. The cake resistance determines the pressure drop. During filtration, liquid flows through the porous filter cake in the direction of decreasing hydraulic pressure gradient. The porosity (e) is at a minimum at the point of contact between the cake and filter plate (i.e., where x = 0) and at a maximum at the cake surface (x = L) where sludge enters. A schematic definition of this system is illustrated in Figure 2. 

Hydrocupreidine (Dihydrocupreidine), C19H24O2N2. a H20. This base, isomeric with the foregoing, is made by demethylating dihydroquinidine, and was first definitely obtained by Heidelberger and Jacobs. It forms glistening, cream-tinted, hexagonal plates, m.p. 195° (dec.), -(- 227-2°...
