The excess reactivity for the normal core is 14.6. The water temperature effect on reactivity is negative in the range measurement 16 to 51 C. 

A water aspirator can never lower the pressure beyond the vapor pressure of the water used to create the vacuum. Hence, there is a lower limit to the pressure (on cold days) of 9-10 mm Hg. A water aspirator does not provide as high a vacuum in the summer as in the winter, because of this water-temperature effect.

In neutral and alkaline environments, the magnesium hydroxide product can form a surface film which offers considerable protection to the pure metal or its common alloys. Electron diffraction studies of the film formed ia humid air iadicate that it is amorphous, with the oxidation rate reported to be less than 0.01 /rni/yr. If the humidity level is sufficiently high, so that condensation occurs on the surface of the sample, the amorphous film is found to contain at least some crystalline magnesium hydroxide (bmcite). The crystalline magnesium hydroxide is also protective ia deionized water at room temperature. The aeration of the water has Httie or no measurable effect on the corrosion resistance. However, as the water temperature is iacreased to 100°C, the protective capacity of the film begias to erode, particularly ia the presence of certain cathodic contaminants ia either the metal or the water (121,122). 

First Carbonation. The process stream OH is raised to 3.0 with carbon dioxide. Juice is recycled either internally or in a separate vessel to provide seed for calcium carbonate growth. Retention time is 15—20 min at 80—85°C. OH of the juice purification process streams is more descriptive than pH for two reasons first, all of the important solution chemistry depends on reactions of the hydroxyl ion rather than of the hydrogen ion and second, the nature of the C0 2 U20-Ca " equiUbria results in a OH which is independent of the temperature of the solution. AH of the temperature effects on the dissociation constant of water are reflected by the pH. 

Thermal effects on aquatic organisms have been given critical scientific review. Annual reviews of the thermal effects Hterature have been pubUshed beginning in 1968 (12). Water temperature criteria for protection of aquatic life were prepared by the NAS in 1972, and these criteria have formed the basis of the EPA recommendations for estabUshing water temperature standards for specific water bodies (13,14). 

Octano/—Water Partition Coefficient. The Fragment approach (234—236) has been reviewed (227) and another method similar to the UNIFAC refit for Henry s constant has been proposed. Improved accuracy for many species and the abiUty to correct for temperature effects have been claimed for the newer method. 

The condensing water temperature has an important effect on steam rate per refrigeration effecd, rapidly decreasing with colder condenser cooling water. Figure 11-108 presents data on steam rate versus condenser water inlet for given chiUed-water outlet temperatures and steam pressure. 

Chilled-water temperature. As the chilled-water outlet temperature decreases, the ratio of steam/refrigeration effect decreases, thus increasing condensing temperatures and/or increasing the con-densing-water requirements. 

Unhke other refrigeration systems, the chiUed-water flow rate is of no particular importance in steam-jet system design, because there is, due to direct heat exchange, no influence of evaporator tube velocities and related temperature differences on heat-transfer rates. Widely varying return chiUed-water temperatures have Uttle effect on steam-jet equipment. 

In selecting the boiling temperature, consideration must be given to the effect of temperature on heat-transfer characteristics of the type of evaporator to be used. Some evaporators show a marked drop in coefficient at low temperature—more than enough to offset any gain in available temperature difference. The condenser cooling-water temperature and cost must also be considered. 

The effectiveness of chlorine residuals increase with higher temperatures within the normal water temperature range. 

It has also been demonstrated that the germicidal effectiveness of free and combined chlorine is markedly diminished with decreasing water temperature. In any situation in which the effects of lowered temperature and high pH value are combined, reduced efficiency of free chlorine and chloramines is marked. These factors directly affect the exposure time needed to achieve satisfactory disinfection. Under the most ideal conditions, the contact time needed with free available chlorine may only be on the order of a few minutes combined available chlorine under the same conditions might require hours. 

A lace of polyethylene is extruded with a diameter of 3 mm and a temperature of 190°C. If its centre-line must be cooled to 70°C before it can be granulated effectively, calculate the required length of the water bath if the water temperature is 20°C. The haul-off speed is 0.4 tn/s and it may be assumed that the heat transfer from the plastic to the water is by conduction only.
