Test reports

Efficiency gain in verification operations thanks to computerisation of calculation operations and editing test reports. 

Having set up the ultrasonic instrument (according to test specifications), the inspector scans the weld volume. Any indications subject to recording are interpreted and documented in a handwritten on-site report. The test report only describes the indications detected by the inspector, but not the completeness of the lest in the sense of a documented 100% volume testing as is the case with X-ray testing. 

The test report documents that the entire weld volume of the section has been completely scanned. 

The test report shows all indications in a top and side view of the weld, which makes it directly accessible even to ultrasonic laymen. 

The software US-SCAN 3.0 (IBT GmbH, Ober-Ramstadt, Germany) provides all functions of a portable flaw detector and a powerful ultrasonic imaging in A-, B-, C- and D-scans. Not only motor driven scanners can he used, but also manual scanning systems with encoders. Further documentation and test reports can be carried out with Windows software.

The results processor computes the test results from the raw data furnished by the AP and coUates these results together with the demographic patient data into test reports. Test results falling outside normal limits are flagged on the report to speed up the diagnosis process. These data managers can also store thousands of patient reports in their current memory. Some of the more sophisticated systems also store the actual reaction curves used to determine the test results. 

The value of the coefficient of heat transfer from steam to sheet is determined by the conditions prevailiug on the inside and on the surface of the dryers. Low coefficients may be caused by (1) poor removal of air or other noncoudeusables from the steam in the cyhn-ders, (2) poor removal of condensate, (3) accumulation of oil or rust on the interior of the drums, and (4) accumulation of a fiber lint on the outer surface of the drums. In a test reported by Lewis et al. [Pulp Pap. Mag. Can., 22 (Februaiy 1927)] on a sulfite-paper diyer, in which the actual sheet temperatures were measured, a value of 187 W/(m °C) [33 Btu/(h ft" °F)j was obtained for the coefficient of heat flow between the steam and the paper sheet. 

This test is basically quahtative and can be used for identifying exothermic reactions. Like the DSC, it is also a screening test. Reported temperatures are not rehable enough to be able to make quantitative conclusions. If an exothermic reaction is observed, it is advisable to conduct tests in the ARC.

The source test report is the end result of a large amount of work. It should be thorough, accurate, and written in a manner understandable to the person who intends to use it. It should state the purpose of the test, what was tested, how it was tested, the results obtained, and the conclusions reached. The actual data and calculations should be included in the appendix of the source test report so that they are available to substantiate the report if questioned. 

The performanee tests must be run as mueh as possible to meet the ASME performanee eodes. These eodes are very well written and fully delineate the tests required. Meetings should be held in advanee with the vendors to deeide whieh part of the eode would not be valid and what assumptions and eorreetion faetors must be undertaken to meet the various power and effieieney guarantees. The determination of speeial data or verifieation of partieular guarantees, whieh are outside the seope of the eodes, should be made only after written agreement of both parties to the test, espeeially regarding methods of measurement and eomputation, whieh should be eompletely deseribed in the test report. 

With regard to in-line flame arresters the CEN standard clearly specifies minimnm operating pressnres as well as detailing of the operating pressnre on the test report.

Steel. Steel shall conform to one of the applicable ASTM specifications referred to by applicable AISC specifications. Other steels not covered by these specifications may be used provided that the chemical and physical properties conform to the limits guaranteed by the steel manufacturer. Structural steel shapes having specified minimum yield less than 33,000 psi shall not be used. Certified mill test report or certified reports of tests made in accordance with ASTM A6 and the governing specification shall constitute evidence of conformity with one of the specifications listed. 

If the purchaser is not satisfied with the wire rope service, he or she shall send the properly preserved sample or a sample of the rope from an unused section to any testing laboratory mutually agreed upon by the purchaser and the manufacturer, with instructions to make a complete API test, and notify the manufacturer to have a representative present. If the report indicates compliance with specifications, the purchaser shall assume cost of testing otherwise, the manufacturer shall assume the expense and make satisfactory adjustments not exceeding full purchase price of the rope. If the report indicates noncompliance with specifications, the testing laboratory shall forward a copy of the test report to the manufacturer.

All tests reported here were performed with a special methanation catalyst developed by BASF, Ludwigshafen, for the process. The catalyst had a relatively high nickel content on a carrier. It was charged to reactors D2 and D3 in unreduced form and had to be activated by reduction with hydrogen. 

As an alternative, sampling BW from a point just below the extra-low-level alarm point usually is also suitable. However, the BW is not always at its most concentrated point at the water column connection. A sample taken from this point may contain a mix of BW and steam, which leads to errors in sampling and hence, testing, reporting, interpretation, and subsequent actions. 

Schoberl et al. reported the data compiled in Germany for the most important industrial surfactants [383]. Natural and oxoalcohol sulfates have primary biodegradation results of 99% and 98-99%, respectively, by the confirmatory test. Natural and oxoalcohol ether sulfates biodegrade 98-99% and 96%, respectively, in the confirmatory test. Reported values of total biodegradation are shown in Table 35A and Table 35B.

Genotoxic Effects. Endosulfan has been evaluated for genotoxicity in a variety of in vivo and in vitro assays. As summarized in Tables 2-4 and 2-5, the results of these assays have been positive and negative, but the majority of mutagenicity tests reported positive results. Certain studies were unsatisfactory, as indicated below.
