Sloped line

A one-component system (C = 1) has two independent state variabies (T and p). At the tripie point three phases (soiid, iiquid, vapour) coexist at equiiibrium, so P = 3. From the phase ruie f = 0, so that at the tripie point, T and p are fixed - neither is free but both are uniqueiy determined. If T is free but p depends on T (a sloping line on the phase diagram) then f = 1 and P = 2 that is, two phases, solid and liquid, say, co-exist at equilibrium. If both p and T are free (an area on the phase diagram) F = 2 and P = 1 only one phase exists at equilibrium (see Fig. A1.18). 

When the intersection points lie below the 0.5 slope line, the system is said to have a bending critical speed. It is important to identify these points, since they indicate the increasing importance of bending stiffness over support stiffness. 

Enter at the left at 500 psia, go to the right to 10% HjS, and drop down to 0.7 gravity. This hits just below the sloped line near 65°F. Parallel this line down to about 65.5°F. 

Figure 9.14 shows a typical approach force curve along with schematic drawings of the relative positions of the SPM tip and the sample surface, as related to the force curve. At the start of the experiment, i.e., position A on the right-hand side of the figure, the tip is above the surface of the sample. As it approaches the surface the Z value decreases until at position B the tip contacts the surface. With further downward movement of the piezo the cantilever starts to be deflected by the force imposed on it by the surface. If the surface is much stiffer than the cantilever, we get a straight line with a slope of — 1, i.e., for every 1 nm of Z travel we get 1 nm of deflection (Une BC in Figure 9.14). If the surface has stiffness similar to that of the cantilever, the tip wUl penetrate the surface and we get a nonlinear curve with a decreased slope (line BD in Figure 9.14). The horizontal distance between the curve BD and the line BC is equal to the penetration at any given cantilever deflection or force. The piezo continues downward until a preset cantilever deflection is reached, the so-called trigger. The piezo is then retracted a predetermined distance, beyond the point at which the tip separates from the sample.

Figure 7.10 Potential of maximum entropy (PME) of a Pt(lll) electrode modified by Bi, Pb, Se, and S deposition in 1 mM HCIO4 + 0.1 M KCIO4 solution, as a function of adatom coverage. The dashed, zero-slope line corresponds to the averaged reference PME value of unmodified Pt(lll). The cartoons show the schematic interpretation for the effect of the adatoms at high coverage on the potential transients. (Reprinted with permission from Garcia-Araez et al. [2008].)...

There are no large blank areas in your notebook. Draw sloping lines through them. Going back to enter observations after the experiment is over is not professional. Initial and date pages anytime you write anything in your notebook. 

Example 1 A given chamber has a volume of 70 m and an inner surface area of 100 m a subsfanfial gas evolution of 2 10 mbar I s" m is assumed. The first question is to decide whether a pump with a nominal pumping speed of 1300 m /h is generally suitable in this case. The coordinates for the surface area concerned of 100 m and a gas evolution of 2 10 mbar I s" m result in an intersection point A, which is joined to point B by an upward sloping line and then... 

The more gently sloping lines correspond to a state of expansion in which the mean cross-section is governed by the characteristic active group, and the curves naturally differ according to the nature of this group. 

Another example of the effects produced by admixtures in ready-mixed concrete is also shown in Fig. 7.8, in which data from another ready-mix plant is presented. The slope lines show that a change in slump from 75 to 175 mm without a water-reducing admixture required an increase in water-cement ratio of 0.08. With the admixture, the same variation in slump required an increase in water-cement ratio of only 0.05, indicating that such concretes permitted variations in slump with less than the usual variation in water demand and water-cement ratio. 

Draw a straight slope line (dotted line in Figure 13.5) so as to fit a step response curve. 

Determine the slope, R, of the slope line and a lag time, L, as graphically shown in Figure 13.5. 

The above two examples serve to illustrate that more severe conditions of gas recovery require large expense in thermodynamic inhibitors. The high pressure and high water production at Canyon Express and the steeply upward sloping lines and subfreezing temperatures of Ormen Lange are harbingers of more severe conditions in the future. There are some cases in which the cost of hydrate inhibitors determine the project viability. 

The only differences are that it endures for a shorter period of time and the vertical lines of the square wave are changed to the sloping lines of a sine wave. If the time of valve closure were exactly 2Lie, the maximum pressure rise at the valve would still be the same but the curves of the sine wave would all end in sharp points for both maximum and minimum values, as the time of duration would be reduced to zero. These references to square and sinusoidal pressure shock waves are based on an experimental pipe with the following data L = 3060 ft, internal diameter = 2.06 in, c = 4371 ft/s, V = 1.11 ft/s, Vc/g = 151 ft, 2Lie = 1.40 s, static head = 306.7 ft, head before waive closure = 301.6 ft, hf= 5.1 ft. For the square wave, the time of closure is 1 s, and it will be noted that the actual pressure rise is more than 151 ft. For the sine wave, the time of closure is 3 s. 

A positive slope value corresponds to an upward sloping line. 

In many spectroscopic techniques, it is not unusual to encounter baseline offsets from spectrum to spectrum. If present, these kinds of effects can have a profound effect on a PCA model by causing extra factors to appear. In some cases, the baseline effect may consist of a simple offset however, it is not uncommon to encounter other kinds of baselines with a structure such as a gentle upward or downward sloping line caused by instrument drift, or even a broad curved shape. For example, in Raman emission spectroscopy a small amount of fluorescence background signals can sometimes appear as broad, weak curves. 

Figure 7 shows a plot of spin equilibria calculated from the data in Figure 6. The two sloping lines correspond to the temperature range where a thermal spin equilibrium exists. From the difference in height between them, the free energy difference between the equilibria in the R and T structures is calculated as 0.9-1.2 kcal/mol Fe, in agreement with the value derived from the IR measurements mentioned above, and with a recently published determination of the spin equilibrium by resonance Raman spectroscopy (46).
