Measurements of stress relaxation on tempering indicate that, in a plain carbon steel, residual stresses are significantly lowered by heating to temperatures as low as 150°C, but that temperatures of 480°C and above are required to reduce these stresses to adequately low values. The times and temperatures required for stress reUef depend on the high temperature yield strength of the steel, because stress reUef results from the localized plastic flow that occurs when the steel is heated to a temperature where its yield strength is less than the internal stress. This phenomenon may be affected markedly by composition, and particularly by alloy additions. 

Parameter estimation is a procedure for taking the unit measurements and reducing them to a set of parameters for a physical (or, in some cases, relational) mathematical model of the unit. Statistical interpretation tempered with engineering judgment is required to arrive at realistic parameter estimates. Parameter estimation can be an integral part of fault detection and model discrimination. 

The noncontact measurement principle, usually called optical or radiation temperature measurement, is based on detecting electromagnetic radiation emitted from an object. In ventilation applications this method of measurement is used to determine surface temperatures in the infrared region. The advantage is that the measurement can be carried out from a distance, without contact with the surface, which possibly influences the heat balance and the temperatures. The disadvantages are that neither air (or other fluid) temperature nor internal temperature of a material can be measured. Also the temper-... 

It is significant that most of the data from which a remarkable uniformity of attack is deduced are derived from small isolated panels. This is the most convenient form of specimen for measurements of corrosion rates by loss of weight but it eliminates the important effect of galvanic currents passing between remote parts of a large structure. It is believed that the experience of civil engineers and other users would not support the conclusion suggested by panel tests that corrosion is no faster in tropical than in temperate waters. 

Intrinsic viscosity measurements revealed a conformational transition upon heating from 26 to 40 °C, while the UV absorbance of the solution was insensitive to the change. The entropy parameters for PA were also discussed in light of the Flory-Krigbaum correlation between the second virial coefficient and theta temper-... 

How do Phytoplankton Cope with Enhanced UV Several investigators have reported the existence in Antarctic algae of UV-absorbing mycosporine amino acids identical to those of tropical and temperate marine species (37). These compounds absorb in the UV-B region of the spectrum and may act as sunscreens which may provide some measure of protection from damaging UV-B. 

Example 5.10 A liquid-phase, pilot-plant reactor uses a 12-ft tube with a 1.049-in i.d. The working fluid has a density of 860 kg/m, the residence time in the reactor is 10.2 s, and the Reynolds number is 8500. The pressure drop in the pilot plant has not been accurately measured, but is known to be less than 1 psi. The entering feed is preheated and premixed. The inlet temperature is 60°C and the outlet temperature is 64°C. Tempered water at 55°C is used for cooling. Management loves the product and wants you to design a plant that is a factor of 128 scaleup over the pilot plant. Propose scaleup alternatives and explore their thermal consequences. 

Pyrethroids can also persist in sediments. In one study, alpha-cypermethrin was applied to a pond as an emulsifiable concentrate (Environmental Health Criteria 142). After 16 days of application, 5% of the applied dose was still present in sediment, falling to 3% after a further 17 days. This suggests a half-life of the order of 20-25 days—comparable in magnitude to half-lives measured in temperate soils. 

The results presented by Web search engines are generally listed in rank order of most to least relevant. Algorithms used to establish relevance vary. Traditionally relevance has been defined by some measure of content agreement between the search statement and the results however, some of the Web search engines now use measures of site popularity (number of links or number of times accessed) to rank site relevance. Link analysis does temper the artificially high relevance created by sites that optimize their relevance with keywords, multiple titles, and other techniques [50]. However, valuable sites with fewer links or less general interest may be more difficult to find. 

The worst operating condition in a common design practice consists of overly conservative assumptions on the hot-channel input. These assumptions must be realistically evaluated in a subchannel analysis by the help of in-core instrumentation measurements. In the early subchannel analysis codes, the core inlet flow conditions and the axial power distribution were preselected off-line, and the most conservative values were used as inputs to the code calculations. In more recent, improved codes, the operating margin is calculated on-line, and the hot-channel power distributions are calculated by using ex-core neutron detector signals for core control. Thus the state parameters (e.g., core power, core inlet temper-... 

We describe here the measurement of the thermal conductivity between 4.2 and 70 K of A6061-T6, a tempered Al/Mg/Si alloy, with good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, used for heavy-duty structural applications, and A1050, an almost pure Al/Fe/Si alloy with good workability.

Another problem results from high vapor pressures of relatively low-boiling solvents. With regard to the dependence on reactor geometry, it can take some time for the vapor pressure of the solvent to become established in the gas phase of the closed system. As this equilibration of vapor pressure provides a positive volume contribution (the pressure above the reaction solution increases in a closed system), measured gas consumptions can be considerably falsified not only as a function of time but also in respect of the overall balance One way to avoid this problem is to separate the gas phase above the reaction solution from the gas in the measuring burette by using a tempered bubble counter (cf. Fig. 10.3). 

For gassy and for tempered systems, the flow rate can also be measured in a simulated vent line (same 1/d ratio) of diameter do. Additional calculation formulas are given in [191].
