Screening curve

To enable the condition inside the mill to be assessed, the height of the material bed and the appearance presented by the media and material should likewise be measured and recorded at each point where samples are taken for establishing the grinding diagram. The material bed heights may be included in the diagram. Quite often, distinct functional relationships are seen to exist between the cumulative screen curves, the curve for specific surface and the depth of the bed of material. 

The performance of the hydrocyclone is calculated by using a partition curve similar to a screen curve. This gives the d o size, or 50% probability at the cut point. This cut point is defined as the condition for which 50% of the feed will be discharged as coarse particles in the cyclone underflow and 50% as fines or cyclone overflow. For every cyclone design, there is a base d oc or cut-off for the recovery (Figure 7-27). 

The sensitivity curves are plots of maximum achieved sensitivity as a function of thickness of the object for a given focal spot size and source to detector distance. The best attainable sensitivity in image intensifier systems is a function of tube voltage, current, scattered radiation and the screen gamma. As a first step, stainless steel plates with thicknesses ranging from 5 mm-30 mm in steps of 5 mm were chosen. These plates had a length of 950 mm and width of 280 mm. The plate is positioned very close and at the center to the LI. tube. The extraneous... 

It can be observed from the Figure 1 that the sensitivity of I.I. system is quite low at lower thicknesses and improves as the thicknesses increase. Further the sensitivity is low in case of as observed images compared to processed images. This can be attributed to the quantum fluctuations in the number of photons received and also to the electronic and screen noise. Integration of the images reduces this noise by a factor of N where N is the number of frames. Another observation of interest from the experiment was that if the orientation of the wires was horizontal there was a decrease in the observed sensitivity. It can be observed from the contrast response curves that the response for defect detection is better in magnified modes compared to normal mode of the II tube. Further, it can be observed that the vertical resolution is better compared to horizontal which is in line with prediction by the sensitivity curves. 

The sensitivity of the luminescence IP s in the systems employed here decreases with increasing x-ray energy more strongly than in the case of x-ray film. Therefore, this phenomenon must be compensated by using thicker lead front and back screens. The specific contrast c,p [1,3] is an appropriate parameter for a comparison between IP s and film, since it may be measured independently of the spatial resolution. Since the absorption coefficient p remains roughly constant for constant tube voltage and the same material, it suffices to measure and compare the scatter ratio k. Fig. 2 shows k as a function of the front and back screen thickness for the IP s for 400 keV and different wall thicknesses. The corresponding measured scatter ratios for x-ray films with 0,1 mm front and back screens of lead are likewise shown. The equivalent value for the front and back screen thicknesses is found from the intersection of the curves for the IP s and the film value. 

Modem NDT film systems (with Pb screens) are very linear X-ray detectors. This is shown in fig.l for different NDT film systems and a X-ray tube at 160 kV. Note that for histoncal reasons the film response curve is often plotted as film density versus log (radiation dose), which hides this linear relationship. The film density is the difference between the measured optical film density and the fog density Db of the film base. 

With the reference block method the distance law of a model reflector is established experimentally prior to each ultrasonic test. The reference reflectors, mostly bore holes, are drilled into the reference block at different distances, e.g. ASME block. Prior to the test, the reference reflectors are scanned, and their maximised echo amplitudes are marked on the screen of the flaw detector. Finally all amplitude points are connected by a curve. This Distance Amplitude Curve (DAC) serves as the registration level and exactly shows the amplitude-over-distance behaviour" of the reference reflector for the probe in use. Also the individual characteristics of the material are automatically considered. However, this curve may only be applied for defect evaluation, in case the reference block and the test object are made of the same material and have undergone the same heat treatment. As with the DGS-Method, the value of any defect evaluation does not consider the shape and orientation of the defect. The reference block method is safe and easy to apply, and the operator need not to have a deep understanding about the theory of distance laws. 

Now, also the coordinates of DGS curves are described also as group of points P (A, sJ. In both cases, the curve represents the registration level for defect evaluation, and, as far as the required evaluation result is concerned, any required value may be automatically calculated by the system and displayed digitally on the screen. Fig. 3.

Even now the operator should be able to change the instrument sensitivity, e.g. to evaluate an echo which exceeds the upper limit of the screen, or which is too small, or simply to follow the mles of the test specification requiring a so-called search sensitivity. Even after changing the gain, any echo evaluation will be correct, since the registration curve will be adjusted automatically to always maintain the correct relationship between the defect echo and the registration curve. 

The products are an oversize (underflow, heavies, sands) and an undersize (overflow, lights, slimes). An intermediate size can also be produced by varying the effective separating force. Separation size maybe defined either as a specific size in the overflow screen analysis, eg, 5% retained on 65 mesh screen or 45% passing 200 mesh screen, or as a d Q, defined as a cut-off or separation size at which 50% of the particles report to the oversize or undersize. The efficiency of a classifier is represented by a performance or partition curve (2,6), similar to that used for screens, which relates the particle size to the percentage of each size in the feed that reports to the underflow. 

Direct quantitation of receptor concentrations and dmg—receptor interactions is possible by a variety of techniques, including fluorescence, nmr, and radioligand binding. The last is particularly versatile and has been appHed both to sophisticated receptor quantitation and to dmg screening and discovery protocols (50,51). The use of high specific activity, frequendy pH]- or p lj-labeled, dmgs bound to cmde or purified cellular materials, to whole cells, or to tissue shces, permits the determination not only of dmg—receptor saturation curves, but also of the receptor number, dmg affinity, and association and dissociation kinetics either direcdy or by competition. Complete theoretical and experimental details are available (50,51).

Smooth jaws produce more numerous flaky pieces than corrugated jaws. Curved jaws produce less fines but more numerous flaky particles. Crusher speed has little effect. The presence of material too small to be crushed has a deleterious effect on the shape of products. Secondary crushers with a small reduction ratio can improve the shape of primaiy crushed material, but secondaiy crushers are not inherently different from primaiy crushers. Slotted screens can remove flaky particles from the product. Impact crushers produce fewer flaky particles than any other type. 

When the data have been screened and performance calculated, don t be surprised if all the points plot like a tai et in a shooting range, perhaps with a tighter circle rather than describing the complete compressor curve. 

Tubes and Perforated Tubes Electrodepositing nickel non-adherently all over the curved surface of a cylinder, and then sliding off the coating, produces a tubular nickel product. Some tubes manufactured in this way are plain, but most are perforated. They are used industrially for screen printing textiles, carpets and wall paper . 

Consider the apparatus shown in Figure 14-6. The equipment is similar to that shown in Figure 14-4 except a fluorescent screen within the tube reveals the trajectory of the particles that pass through the slot in the positive electrode. When a magnetic field is added, the electron trajectory is curved. A mathematical analysis of the curvature permits an interpretation of this experiment that leads to a determination of e/m. 

The use of an integral video screen in instruments presents very great advantages, both in the ease of operation and in the ability to develop and understand analytical methods. Complete analytical records can be stored in the instrument and a visual display of good calibration curves can be stored in memory and recalled at will. It is most useful to have a graphical display of atomisation peaks when using a furnace where a distinction can be made of the total absorbance peak and that due to the analyte absorbance.
