Rodents: food or pests in Neolithic Orkney
Rodents have important effects on contemporary human societies, sometimes providing a source of food but more often as agricultural pests, or as vectors and reservoirs of disease. Skeletal remains of rodents are commonly found in archaeological assemblages from around the world, highlighting their potential importance to ancient human populations. However, there are few studies of the interacti...
متن کاملEffect of firing temperature on the properties of inorganic high temperature phosphate adhesive
High-temperature adhesives are considered for high-temperature applications such as the refractory industry. In this research, inorganic high-temperature phosphate-based adhesive was prepared using alumina and micro silica as the main raw materials and monoaluminum phosphate as a binder. The effect of firing temperature on the properties of the adhesive including phases, microstructure, compres...
متن کاملHigh-temperature Fuel Cells
The molten carbonate fuel cell operates at approximately 650 °C (1200 °F). The high operating temperature is needed to achieve sufficient conductivity of the carbonate electrolyte, yet allow the use of low-cost metal cell components. A benefit associated with this high temperature is that noble metal catalysts are not required for the cell electrochemical oxidation and reduction processes. Molt...
متن کاملInitial fuel temperature effects on burning rate of pool fire.
The influence of the initial fuel temperature on the burning behavior of n-heptane pool fire was experimentally studied at the State Key Laboratory of Fire Science (SKLFS) large test hall. Circular pool fires with diameters of 100mm, 141 mm, and 200 mm were considered with initial fuel temperatures ranging from 290 K to 363 K. Burning rate and temperature distributions in fuel and vessel wall w...
متن کاملHigh-Temperature Proton-Conducting Ceramics Developed
with the perovskite structure and with the trivalent cation (M) substitution at the B-site to introduce oxygen vacancies. The high affinity for hydrogen ions (H) is advantageous for protonic transport, but it increases the reactivity toward water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2), which can lead to premature membrane failure. In addition, there are considerable technological challenges related to ...
