Smith (15) has presented a practical ammonia-stripping tower design based on the concept of the height of transfer unit vs the gas/liquid ratio for a given type of tower packing. He has provided a sample design problem.

This chapter is concerned with the detailed procedure for the design of plastics parts to take static loads. In order to make the analysis significant to real problems, we will work with a situation that involves significant loads and important structural requirements. In order to generalize the approach we will work with a structural problem common to a number of different structures and which will show how the different structural requirements will affect the engineering choices to be made. The particular structural section that will illustrate the sample design problem will be a roof section which may be used for anything from a work shed, to a house, to a vehicle, or even to a simple lean-to weather shelter. 

These formulas are important in the discussion of tip and sample deformation (see, for example, Pethica and Oliver, 1987), as well as some mechanical design problems of STM and AFM. 

The computer program written to describe and implement the mathematical model was run on an APPLE Macintosh personal computer. A listing of the program is not included due to limitations of space. However, sample results obtained from the program for the particular design problem considered in this project are given in Table G4. 

Their solution of these design problems is illustrated in Figure 35. A base mount, onto which different sample holders fit, incorporates the heating and cooling, and the thermocouple. The separation of the sample... 

Illustrative examples and sample problems are used extensively in the text to illustrate the applications of the principles to practical situations. Problems are included at the ends of most of the chapters to give the reader a chance to test the understanding of the material. Practice-session problems, as well as longer design problems of varying degrees of complexity, are included in Appendix C. Suggested recent references are presented as footnotes to show the reader where additional information can be obtained. Earlier references are listed in the first, second, and third editions of this book. 

Condition (a) above is not exclusive to headspace analysis in fact, it is a pre-requisite for quantitative analysis of any sample in gas chromatography. Essentially the same is true for condition (b). Condition (d) is primarily a design problem. Finally, constancy of p is assured by proper automation of the system (i.e. by exact repetition of the operational parameters) and by the fact that the calibration standard is carried through the same MHS steps as the sample itself Therefore, the greatest problem is posed by the need to ensure equilibrium between the two phases in the vial.
