Subject rate, velocity

Which Alloy to Use. Unalloyed mild steel parts have been known to corrode at rates as high as 800 mils per year. The low-chrome steels, through 9-Cr, are sometimes much more resistant than mild steel. No corrosion has been reported, with both 2%-Cr and 5-Cr furnace tubes, whereas carbon steel tubes in the same service suffered severe coiTosion. The 12-Cr stainless steels are scarcely, if any, better than the low-chromes. But the 18-8 Cr-Ni steels, without molybdenum, are often quite resistant under conditions of low velocity although they are sometimes subject to severe pitting. 

Powder transfer velocity and mass flow rate are not subject to any maximum values,... 

The effects of concentration, velocity and temperature are complex and it will become evident that these factors can frequently outweigh the thermodynamic and kinetic considerations detailed in Section 1.4. Thus it has been demonstrated in Chapter 1 that an increase in hydrogen ion concentration will raise the redox potential of the aqueous solution with a consequent increase in rate. On the other hand, an increase in the rate of the cathodic process may cause a decrease in rate when the metal shows an active/passive transition. However, in complex environmental situations these considerations do not always apply, particularly when the metals are subjected to certain conditions of high velocity and temperature. 

Computed Maximum Pressure (CMP). Value of max pressure computed by means of interior ballistic formulas. It will be developed when a new gun of a particular type is fired under standard conditions with a propelling charge which will give to the projectile its rated muzzle velocity Rated Maximum Pressure (RMP). Value of max pressure specified in the proplnt specifications as the upper limit of avg pressure which may be developed by an acceptable proplnt in the form of propelling charges which will impart the specified muzzle velocity to the specified projectile. Normally about 2000psi.above the computed max pressure, subject to determination at the time of development... 

The influence of liquid recycle rate and liquid-feed space velocity upon desulfurization level is the subject of a brief theoretical discussion.

In the present chapter we shall be concerned with quantitative treatment of the swelling action of the solvent on the polymer molecule in infinitely dilute solution, and in particular with the factor a by which the linear dimensions of the molecule are altered as a consequence thereof. The frictional characteristics of polymer molecules in dilute solution, as manifested in solution viscosities, sedimentation velocities, and diffusion rates, depend directly on the size of the molecular domain. Hence these properties are intimately related to the molecular configuration, including the factor a. It is for this reason that treatment of intramolecular thermodynamic interaction has been reserved for the present chapter, where it may be presented in conjunction with the discussion of intrinsic viscosity and related subjects. 

A particle falling freely in vacuum is subjected to a constant acceleration, and its velocity increases continuously. The velocity at any point depends only on the distance from the starting point, and is independent of the size and the density of the particle. Thus a heavy stone and a feather fall at exactly the same rate in an evacuated system. However, in the event of a particle falling in a fluid medium, there is resistance to this fall or movement. The resistance increases as the velocity of the particle increases, and this continues until the forces tending to accelerate the particle and the fluid resistance forces become equal. The particle is then said to have attained its terminal velocity it continues to fall, but with a uniform velocity. 

In order to obtain solutions with the desired flow properties, shear-induced degradation should be avoided. From mechanical degradation experiments it has been shown that chain scission occurs when all coupling points are loose and the discrete chains are subjected to the velocity field. Simple considerations lead to the assumption that this is obtained when y) is equal to T sp(c-[r ]) (Fig. 18). The critical shear rate can then easily be evaluated [22]. 

To characterize rheological behavior of materials, some basic terms need to be defined. Consider a liquid material that is subjected to a shearing force as illustrated in Fig. 2. The liquid is assumed to consist of a series of parallel layers with the surface area A, the bottom layer being fixed. When a force is applied on the top layer, the top plane moves at a constant velocity, whereas each lower layer moves with a velocity directly proportional to its distance from the stationary bottom layer. The velocity gradient (dv/dr, the difference in velocity, dv, between the top and bottom planes of liquid separated by the distance, dr) is also called the rate of shear, G ... 

The second approach involves simultaneous variation of the weight of catalyst and the molal flow rate so as to maintain W/F constant. One then plots the conversion achieved versus linear velocity, as shown in Figures 6.4c and 6Ad. If the results are as indicated in Figure 6Ad, mass transfer limitations exist in the low-velocity regime. If the conversion is independent of velocity, there probably are no mass transfer limitations on the conversion rate. However, this test is also subject to the sensitivity limitations noted above. 

To determine the rate of transfer a large set of systems, each with an atom either to the left or near the saddle point is considered. Once an atom has moved to the right of LL the process is regarded as having occurred. The rate R is then defined as the net flux of atoms across LL, subject to several assumptions, introduced to ensure forward reaction. For n atoms in equilibrium near A, moving with mean Maxwell velocity v = y/2kT/irm towards the right, the required flux density is (1/2)vn, and the total flux is...
