The diagram

All too often safety and health (and environmental) considerations are left to the final stages of the design. Returning to the hierarchy of design illustrated by the onion diagram in Fig. 1.6, such considerations would add another layer in the diagram outside the utilities layer. This approach leaves much to be desired. 

The diagram shows the method applied to butan-2-ol, for which the laevorotatory ( —) isomer is known to have the (R)-configuration. 

Proteins consist of large numbers of amino-acids joined by the p>eptide link —CO —NH — into chains, as shown in the diagram, where R and R" are amino-acid residues. These chains are called peptides and may be broken into smaller chains by partial hydrolysis (see peptides). Proteins may contain more than one peptide chain thus insulin consists of... 

Examination of the diagram in Figure 5.15 enabies the temperature range to be found for various No. 2 fuel oils. 

In a first phase, the diagram for processing oil fractions features the addition of complementary units that enable the production of unleaded gasoline such as ... 

Using this mixture as an example, consider starting at pressure A and isothermally reducing the pressure to point D on the diagram. At point A the mixture exists entirely in the liquid phase. When the pressure drops to point B, the first bubble of gas is evolved, and this will be a bubble of the lighter component, ethane. As the pressure continues to drop, the gas phase will acquire more of the heavier component and hence the liquid volume decreases. At point C, the last drop of liquid remaining will be composed of the heavier component, which itself will vaporise as the dew point is crossed, so that below... 

The four vertical lines on the diagram show the isothermal depletion loci for the main types of hydrocarbon gas (incorporating dry gas and wet gas), gas condensate, volatile oil and black oil. The starting point, or initial conditions of temperature and pressure, relative to the two-phase envelope are different for each fluid type. 

The diagram (Fig. 5.21) shows that as the pressure is reduced below the dew point, the volume of liquid in the two phase mixture initially increases. This contradicts the common observation of the fraction of liquids in a volatile mixture reducing as the pressure is dropped (vaporisation), and explains why the fluids are sometimes referred to as retrograde gas condensates. 

Then the values of the leaves are placed on the diagram, starting in the far most future the right hand side. The values represent the NPVs of the cash flows which correspond to the individual leaves. 

The probabilities of each branch from chance nodes are then estimated and noted on the diagram. 

The diagram below shows a typleal arrangement of land based facilities in a situation where there are some eonstraints on the location of wellsites and processing plant.

Figure Al.6.7. Schematic diagram illustrating the different possibilities of interference between a pair of wavepackets, as described in the text. The diagram illustrates the role of phase ((a) and (c)), as well as the role of time delay (b). These cases provide the interpretation for the experimental results shown in figure Al.6.8. Reprinted from [22],...

Figure Al.6.18. Liouville space lattice representation in one-to-one correspondence with the diagrams in figure A1.6.17. Interactions of the density matrix with the field from the left (right) is signified by a vertical (liorizontal) step. The advantage to the Liouville lattice representation is that populations are clearly identified as diagonal lattice points, while coherences are off-diagonal points. This allows innnediate identification of the processes subject to population decay processes (adapted from [37]).

Figure A2.5.16. The coexistence curve, = KI(2R) versus mole fraction v for a simple mixture. Also shown as an abscissa is the order parameter s, which makes the diagram equally applicable to order-disorder phenomena in solids and to ferromagnetism. The dotted curve is the spinodal.

These equations lead to fomis for the thermal rate constants that are perfectly similar to transition state theory, although the computations of the partition functions are different in detail. As described in figrne A3.4.7 various levels of the theory can be derived by successive approximations in this general state-selected fomr of the transition state theory in the framework of the statistical adiabatic chaimel model. We refer to the literature cited in the diagram for details. 

The Mathieu equation for the quadnipole ion trap again has stable, bounded solutions conesponding to stable, bounded trajectories inside the trap. The stability diagram for the ion trap is quite complex, but a subsection of the diagram, correspondmg to stable trajectories near the physical centre of the trap, is shown in figure Bl.7.15. The interpretation of the diagram is similar to that for tire quadnipole mass filter.

The diagram gives regions of existence, i.e. for a particular combination of pH and redox potential it can be predicted whether it is thennodynamically favourable for iron to be inert (stable) (region A), to actively dissolve (region B) or to fonn an oxide layer (region C).

The different levels of ab-initio theory are represented on two axes. The vertical one indicates the size of the basis set, which we have already discussed. However, the diagram shows that we can never reach the correct result (top right-hand... 

Only one-dimensional diffusion is considered and Che particles are represented in section by squares, as shown in the diagram. -The authors then consider three routes by which a molecule may move between the planes ab and cd, indicated by broken lines. These are ... 

Physically, this is a difficult procedure Co justify. On planes intermediate between ab and cd Che compositions at corresponding points of each of the three paths will not be the same, so there should be lateral fluxes introduced by these lateral composition gradients--it is not consistent to assume that Che directions of motion are confined to vertical paths, as implied by the diagram. 

The approximations of Kehoe and Aria and of Hite and Jackson (denoted "high permeability" in the diagrams) are indistinguishable from the exact results, while the method of Apecetche et al. introduces substantial error.
