Rapping frequency

Determine the rapping frequency (intervals) minutes if the maximum allowable dust thickness on the plates is g in. (Assume this layer is uniform over the entire plate.)... 

In the opposite limit, at which distances are so large that r = (2emVm2Wc) Z 1 and the wavelengths of the important fluctuating electric fields are small compared with particle separation, that is, where the frequency dependence in a(Z )/S(z )/em(/ )2 is negligibly slow compared with the rate of change of the screening factor Rap(r ), a( )p(/ )/em(/ )2 is treated as a constant, to be evaluated at zero frequency, so that the summation over frequencies has the form... 

We tried to arrive at a representative picture of CCR task performance by having a series of extensive, confidential interviews (based on Flanagan s (1954) CIT) with CCR operators before implementation of the first NMMS modules had started. In each interview a different operator was asked to report on a CCR near miss during the last year and of his own choice, which had not been previously reported. The near miss was then described (as if it were a forced near miss report) in the form of an Incident Production Tree, after which all its root causes were classified according to the RAP model described earlier. After each set of five subsequent interviews the overall pattern of classification results was checked for stability it turned out that the results (i.e. the relative frequencies of classified root causes) after 30 interviews did not differ overall from those of the first 25 therefore the series of interviews was stopped after 35 operators (about two thirds of the available CCR population at the time) had participated. 

Figure 13.15 Dispersion relation of MIM structure with the insulator region is air and is 0.5Ap thiek and two metal layers are semi-infinitely thick. The fi-equency and the wave vector are normalized with respect to rap and kp where kp=(op/c c is the speed of light in air and top is the plasma frequency. Inset shows the MIM structure, eoo and cap are chosen as 9.6 and 3.76 for Ag, respectively.

In a dry precipitator to ensure that the collection process is continuous, after a period of time the collector electrodes are generally mechanically rapped to remove the deposited material. This time aspect, together with the frequency and intensity of the rapping, is important to minimize rapping re-entrainment and hence maximize collection efficiency. In wet precipitators, the particles are deposited on a film of running water or removed by flushing, while for mist precipitators, the droplets are usually selfdraining. 

For a dry application, the frequency and the intensity of the rapping must be such as to shear the deposit as a layer from the plates, rather than attempting to disintegrate the layer completely, as this would lead to severe rapping re-entrainment. Ideally for the particles to reach the hopper and to overcome the horizontal component of velocity, the effective size of agglomerate should be in the order of at least 500 pm in diameter.f ...
