Surface resistivity, equation

Wesely (1989) recommends an alternate surface resistance equation when the ground surface is wet from rain or dew. For surfaces covered with dew, the upper-canopy resistances for S02 and 03 are calculated from... 

Equation (5.4) is valid as long as the skin depth is large in comparison to the mean free path of the electrons in the metal. This holds true in the microwave range at room temperature, for cryogenic temperature the surface resistance lies above the values predicted by Equation (5.4) and exhibits a f2 3 rather than a f1 2 frequency dependence (anomalous skin effect [7]). 

The effects of dry deposition are included as a flux boundary condition in the vertical diffusion equation. Dry deposition velocities are calculated from a big leaf multiple resistance model (Wesely 1989 Zhang et al. 2002) with aerodynamic, quasi-laminar layer, and surface resistances acting in series. The process assumes 15 land-use types and takes snow cover into account. 

The corresponding Ohmic relationship to that of Equation 3.1 relating the surface current density Js (A/m), electric field strength E (V/m), and the surface resistivity yis,... 

The second equation is the bulk effective resistivity due to particle surface resistivity for a cubic array of mono-dispersed particles with the direction of the electric field aligned with the poles and volume conduction neglected. The constriction resistance is included in the integration of Equations 3.8. These equations are a weak function of the particle geometry. 

Equation 3.11 can be used as a first estimate for the bulk resistivity of a packed cubic array of spherical particles. Equation 3.11 also indicates that the surface resistance of a particle is controlling over the conduction process for the condition that... 

For very large values of t and constant operating conditions of water quality, flow velocity and surface temperature. Equation 8.21 can be used to calculate the asymptotic fouling resistance, i.e. 

Membrane shear modulus A measure of the elastic resistance of the membrane to surface shear deformation that is, changes in the shape of the surface at constant surface area (Equation 60.8). (Units 1 mN/m = 1 dyn/cm)... 

Figure 6.8 Electrical conductivity and surface resistivity comparison. Upper panel electrical conductivity results of P3HT/SWNT composite films depending on (left) different amounts of pre-separated ( ) and separated metallic (O) nanotube samples, and (right) their corresponding effective metallic SWNT contents in the films (dashed line the best fit in terms of the percolation theory equation). Lower panel Surface resistivity results of PEDOT PSS/SWNT films on glass substrate with the same 10 wt% nano tube content (O pre-separated purified sample and T separated metallic SWNTs and for comparison, blank PEDOT PSS without nano tubes) but different film thickness and optical transmittance at 550 nm. Shown in the inset are representative films photographed with tiger paw print as background.

The sorption (adsorption or desorption) rate is measured with a sorption balance (spring or electrical) whereas the solid sample is kept in a controlled environment. Assuming negligible surface resistance to mass transfer, the method is based on Pick s diffusion equation. 

Hence from Eq. (5.3-6), the temperature T at any position x and time t can be determined. However, these types of equations are very time consuming to use, and convenient charts have been prepared which are discussed in Sections 5.3B, 5.3C, 5.3D, and 5.3E, where a surface resistance is present. 

Plank s equation does not make provision for an original temperature, which may be above the freezing point. An approximate method to calculate the additional time necessary to cool from temperature Tq down to the freezing point 7 is as follows. Calculate by means of the unsteady-state charts the time for the average temperature in the material to reach Tf assuming that no freezing occurs using the physical properties of the unfrozen material. If there is no surface resistance. Fig. 5.3-13 can be used directly for... 

The behavior of electromagnetic waves in normal metals at ordinary temperatures and microwave frequencies is quite adequately described by the classical treatment based on MaxwelPs equations and Ohm s law. At low temperatures this is no longer true even though MaxwelPs equations are still valid, Ohm s law is inadequate to describe the relation between high frequency electric currents and fields in metals. According to classical theory, the surface resistance R is inversely proportional to the square root of the dc conductivity cr. Consequently, as the temperature is lowered and o- increases, the classical theory predicts that R cc. This is not borne out in practice, as will be seen by referring to Fig, 1. The ordinate is IR the observed surface conductance, and the abscissa is proportional to c T. Initially the behavior is classical and as the temperature is lowered. As the dc conductivity becomes larger, however, I does not increase proportionately and in the low temperature limit it becomes independent of a (and temperature). This phenomenon is known as the anomalous skin effect. The experimental data shown are due to Chambers [1]. The solid curve is the curve predicted from the theory of Reuter and Sondheimer [2],... 

Resistivity is the inverse measure of conductivity of a material as it increases, so conductivity decreases. It should not be confused with resistance. Resistivity is calculated from measurement of resistance, using an equation that takes into account the geometry of the sample and electrodes. Under ASTM D257, surface resistivity is determined from measurement of surface resistance between two electrodes forming opposite sides of a square. Values are stated in per square. 

The equation for conduction of electricity in a metal plate of surface resistivity R is the Poisson s equation. 

Unlike Eq. (24), this equation shows a decrease of 20 dB per decade of frequency increase and 20 dB per decade of surface resistivity, / s = /ad. It may therefore be concluded that the most effective near-field screening can be expected in the region of 20-30 dB for every decade of frequency increase and 10-20 dB for every decade of increase in specific resistance.
