"Does depreciation in the US dollar improve the trade deficit? Introduction What is trade deficit? Trade deficit is an economic measure of a negative balance of trade in which a country 's imports exceeds its exports. A trade deficit represents an outflow of domestic currency to foreign markets. Depreciation in value of US dollar in front of other global currencies can improve or reduce trade deficit as depreciation in dollar can reduce the trade deficit by encouraging exports as not exporters…

Lincoln, who joined the firm in 1907 and took over leadership in 1914. James F. Lincoln is attributed to establishing an employee advisory board and a piecework payment system (1914), group life insurance for employees (1915), an employee stock ownership program and paid vacations (1923), an employee suggestion program (1929), annual incentive bonuses (1934), a pension plan (1944), and guaranteed continuous employment…

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 transfer coefficients…

Case Study 1: 1.The most likely cause of the ABO typing discrepancy in the reverse type is due to “unexpected antibodies” such as a cold/room temperature reacting alloantibody. 2.Since the auto control didn’t agglutinate, an alloantibody is suspected. With that being said, it needs to be one that reacts at room temperature. Furthermore, based on the antigen typing of the patient P1 is suspected to be interfering with the ABO results. The Lewis antigen was ruled out due to it being present on…

cup when you place your hand to the side of it. Radiant energy transfer is caused by a warm surface giving up its heat to a cooler surface. Whenever there is a temperature difference between two surfaces, both surfaces will attempt to equalize. Radiant energy travels through space without heating the space itself. It only turns into heat when it contacts a cooler surface. Our human comfort relies just as much on radiant heat transfer as it does on air temperature, yet the majority of heating and…

1. Cite everyday illustrations of the first and second laws of thermodynamics. How does the laws of thermodynamics underlie every organism’s ability to function? The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; however, it can be converted to other forms. An everyday illustration of the first law of thermodynamic is photosynthesis in which a plant uses sunlight, a form of light energy, to produce sugars that are assembled into glucose, which is a type of…

3.3.2. Initial and Boundary Conditions. The pipe is subject to atmospheric pressure Po at time zero this represented initial condition . Boundary condition represented as at the pipe inlet profiles, uniform pressure Pinlet and its value change with concentration of nanofluid [φ%] and inlet temperature T0 = 60 ºC can be measured for all experimental . On the pipe wall, the pressure was atmospheric pressure Po . Moreover, flow and thermal fields are assumed symmetrical with respect to…

COMPARATIVE STUDY ON FRICTION WELDED AND ELECTRON BEAM WELDED JOINTS MADE BY 20VNiMoCr120 STEEL Gabriela IANCULESCU*, Lucia Violeta MELNIC, Marian Andrei GURĂU Ovidius University of Constanta Abstract: In the paper there are presented experimental results concerning mechanical characteristics of friction-welded joints in comparison with electron beam welded joints, made by 20VNiMoCr120 heat-resistant steel, which are part of some elements working at high pressure and temperature. The paper…

1. OBJECTIVES The objectives of the experiment are: • Measurement of creep deformation in 2 materials; lead and polypropylene at room temperature. • Determine how creep deformation of chosen materials can be affected by stress. • Recognise that the two classes of materials show differences in creep behaviour. • Awareness of creep as a design consideration. 2. THEORY 2.1 Introduction Structural materials are often placed in service under a certain applied load at elevated temperatures (eg. wind…
