In addition to the deposition parameters (such as deposition temperature, total pressure, gas flow and gas ratio), the furnace state (for example structure of furnace and temperature field in furnace)... 

The exact conditions of gas pressure, current flow, and applied voltage under which the discharge occurs determine if it is of the corona, plasma, or arc type. The color of the emitted light may also change, depending not only on the type of gas used but also on whether it is a corona, plasma, or arc discharge. 

Expander performance will shift as plant conditions—such as gas flowrate, gas inlet, and discharge pressure—gas composition, and inlet temperature change. Calculation of expander diermal efficiency from field data is not accurate because expander discharge flow normally consists of two phases, gas and liquid. Efficiency calculations should always be cross-checked with the shaft power produced before any decision on expander performance is made. 

On the night before and early morning of the accident, a series of human and technical errors caused the water for flushing pipes to pass through several open valves and flow into the MIC tank. The w ater and MIC reacted to produce a hot and highly pressurized gas, foam, and liquid, that... 

However, low velocities require towers with large cross-sectional areas to handle a given gas flow, and allow the wet gas to channel through the desiccant bed and not be properly dehydrated. In selecting the design velocity therefore, a compromise must be made between the tower diameter and the maximum use of the desiccant. Figure 8-22 shows a maximum design velocity. Smaller velocities may be required due to pressure drop considerations. 

Flynn and Dickens [142] have translated the relaxation methods of fluid kinetics into terms applicable to solid phase thermogravimetry. The rate-determining variables such as temperature, pressure, gas flow rate, gas composition, radiant energy, electrical and magnetic fields are incremented in discrete steps or oscillated between extreme values and the effect on reaction rate determined. 

After reduction and surface characterization, the iron sample was moved to the reactor and brought to the reaction conditions (7 atm, 3 1 H2 C0, 540 K). Once the reactor temperature, gas flow and pressure were stabilized ( 10 min.) the catalytic activity and selectivity were monitored by on-line gas chromatography. As previously reported, the iron powder exhibited an induction period in which the catalytic activity increased with time. The catalyst reached steady state activity after approximately 4 hours on line. This induction period is believed to be the result of a competition for surface carbon between bulk carbide formation and hydrocarbon synthesis.(6,9) Steady state synthesis is reached only after the surface region of the catalyst is fully carbided. 

Figure 8.26(A) is an example of a valve type interface [329]. Helium carrier gas is provided to the headspace saiq)ler and is split into two flow paths. One path is flow-controlled and provides a constant flow of carrier gas which passes from the headspace unit through the heated transfer line to the gas chromatograph. The second flow path is pressure-regulated and, in the standby mode, the seunple loop and seuapling needle are flushed continuously by the helium flow. At a time determined by the operator, the sampling needle pierces the septum and helium pressurizes the headspace vial to any desired pressure. The headspace gas is then allowed to vent through the sample loop. Once filled, the sample loop is placed in series with the normal carrier gas flow and its contents are driv Bbhrough the heated...

In the JAPEX/JNOC/GSC program, small-scale field production tests were conducted by using pressure-drawdown experiments. Data measured in response to depressurization are pressure, temperature, gas flow, and water flow. During our study, these data were not available to us. 

Two examples where the continuum hypothesis may be invalid are low pressure gas flow in which the mean free path may be comparable to a linear dimension of the equipment, and high speed gas flow when large changes of properties occur across a (very thin) shock wave.
