The T50 and T100 of different Cs-doped Cu50Ce50Ox catalysts The activities of the catalysts with different Cs content for N2O decomposition are shown in Fig.8, and the T50 and T100 (the temperature at which 50% and 100% conversion of N2O decomposition is achieved) are shown in Fig.9. It’s found…

Mathematical model Heat and mass transfer properties of counter flow wet cooling tower are obtained through the balance of mass and energy equations. The assumptions made for deriving the governing equations are listed below [14, 15]: • Heat and mass transfer take place only normal to the flow direction. • Heat transfer to the environment through the walls are negligible. • Heat transfer from cooling-tower fan is negligible. • Specific heats of water and dry air are constant. • Heat and mass…

1. Insulator is a material that does not transmit heat, sound or electricity from one end to another. It hinders the free flow of electrons from atom to atom and molecule to molecule. This is because the electrons are tightly bond to the atoms leaving no space for there to be any free electrons to transmit electrical energy. Examples of insulators are glass, rubber, wood and paper. Conductor is an object or type of material that can transmit heat, sound, light or electricity. It does this by…

Abstract The paper present the investigation on the effect of temperature, time and current density on surface roughness in electropolishing process on 316L stainless steel. The cathode material under study was 316L stainless steel. The electrolyte was composed of sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and DI water. Full factorial design method was used. ANNOVA technique has been used to assess the quantitative influence of the different process factors of the EP. The surface roughness will be…

6. The first step in metabolism of ethanol in humans is the oxidation of ethanol to acetyldehyde by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). At 298 K and pH=7.0, ethanol is incubated with ADH and the concentration of ethanol and acetyldehydee is measured over time. a. Using the results above, calculate the standard free energy change (ΔGº’) for this reaction. Explain your calculations. The standard free energy change can be expressed through the formula ΔGº’=-R(gas constant) T(temp in Kelvin)…

According to the research the menthol in a mint chemically tricks your nervous system to think it is colder than it actually is. According to Ellen Leggett, when you look at, taste, and smell peppermint they are such strong sensory element that makes a detour around our thought process and straight to our emotions, making us think…

Does Radiant Heating Differ from Other Systems? What are the Benefits of Radiant Heating? Radiant heating is becoming more popular as homeowners seek affordable and sustainable energy solutions. Read on to learn what the benefits are and makes radiant heating unique. What are the Differences? Radiant heating systems do not rely on force air, which uses oil or gas to blow heated air around the home through a duct system. In homes with traditional HVAC systems, the home dwellers will experience…

AIM OF THE PRACTICAL The aim of this practical was to investigate the reality or the accuracy of the formula for the resultant force on and the position of the centre of pressure on a vertical rectangular surface. SKETCH OF APPARATUS Counterbalance weight Balance pan(with 20g mass piece) Flat/curved surface(as shown below) Water Beaker Mass pieces(20g each) SUMMARY OF THEORY Hydrostatic force is the force exerted by the…

Abstract A spontaneous, one-pot strategy for the room temperature biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using Cocos Nucifera Linn (coconut palm) coir extract is described. The formation of AuNPs was observed within 30s of reaction time between the metal precursor and coir extract. The bioextract acted as both reducing agent and a stabilizer. The influence of various experimental parameters such as % volume fraction of coir extract, concentration of metal precursor, contact time and solution…

Tribological behavior of double-glow plasma Zirconium-Yttrium alloying on γ-TiAl Cong Huang, Pingze Zhang*, Dongbo Wei, Xiangfei Wei, Xiaohu Chen and Feng Ding (College of Materials Science and Technology, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing 211100, China) * Corresponding author: pzzhang_nuaa@126.com Abstract: A Zr-Y alloyed layer was prepared onto the surface of γ-TiAl using double-glow plasma surface alloying technique (DG technique). The results showed that the Zr-Y…
