The flame velocity in porous media is determined by the effective longitudinal thermal conductivity, which strongly depends on the velocity of the gas. Quenching of the flame as the cold wall is approached and the resulting incompleteness of combustion of the fuel material have been the subject of investigation in many recent studies, both theoretical and experimental. In particular, the question of flame propagation in a mixture of methanol and air has been considered theoretically,10 and the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbon mixtures was studied experimentally.11... 

The test must be conducted at the maximum operating temperature to which the lining will be subjected and should simulate actual operating conditions, including washing cycles, cold wall, and effects of insulation. 

ASTM D 4398 [254] is used for the evaluation of chemical resistance of fiberglass-reinforced thermosetting resins subjected to one-side panel exposure to specific environments. It takes into consideration both cold wall effects and radiation losses by heat transfer through the laminate wall [256]. 

A cylindrical steel pressure vessel (AlSl SAE 10.85, cold rolled) with a wall thickness of 0.1 in. and an inside diameter of 1 ft is subject to an internal pressure of 1,000 psia and a torque of 10,000 ft-lb (see Figure 2-30). What is the effective stress at point A in the wall What is the factor of safety in this design ... 

Solar radiation may fall on outside walls or roofs, raising the skin temperature, and this must he taken into account. Most cold stores are huilt within an outer envelope which protects them from the elements and from direct sunshine. In cases where the insulation itself is subject to solar radiation, an allowance of 5 K higher outside temperature should he taken. Heat load must he estimated through all surfaces including piping, ducts, fan casings, tank walls, etc., where heat flows inwards towards the cooled system. 

Residual stress There is a condition that develops, particularly in products with thin walls. This is a frozen-in stress, a condition that results from the filling process. The TP flowing along the walls of the mold is chilled by heat transferring to the cold mold walls and the material is essentially set (approaching solidification). The material between the two chilled skins formed continues to flow and, as a result, it will stretch the chilled skins of plastics and subject them to tensile stresses. When the flow ceases, the skins of the product are in tension and the core material is in compression that results in a frozen-in stress condition. This stress level is added to any externally applied load so that a product with the frozen-in stress condition is subject to failure at reduced load levels. 

Polytetrafluoroethylene powders can be extruded but not by the methods applied to conventional thermoplastics. The polymer must not be subjected to excessive mechanical working above the melting point or cracking of the finished piece will result. For this reason, the polymer is worked while it is still cold. The powder is compacted with the aid of a screw or a ram and forced through a hot die in which it is sintered (James). This method is used to fabricate rods or heavy wall tubing or to apply heavy coatings to electrical conductors. 

The milk then enters a cyclone vessel tangentially. Coarser particles remain close to the wall of the vessel and are drawn back into the mixing chamber by a tangential off-take. The finely dispersed particles are drawn from the centre of the cyclone vessel into a stirred vessel. In that vessel, the milk is subjected to further high shear rates and is diluted with cold water to the required concentration. 

The ultimate microstructure of a solid will depend on how quickly different crystal faces develop. This controls the overall shape of the crystallites, which may be needle-like, blocky or one of many other shapes. The shapes will also be subject to the constraint of other nearby crystals. The product will be a solid consisting of a set of interlocking grains. The size distribution of the crystallites will reflect the rate of cooling of the solid. Liquid in contact with the cold outer wall of a mould may cool quickly and give rise to many small crystals. Liquid within the centre of the sample may crystallise slowly and produce large crystals. Finally, it is important to mention that the microstructure will depend sensitively on impurities present. This aspect is discussed in Chapters 4 and 8.
