Electric Precipitation Process as a Means for Thermal Concentration

Psychrometric chart as a basis for outdoor thermal analysis

Preparing thermal comfort conditions in outdoor public spaces is one of the considerations of architectural design. If the constructed area does not support comfortable conditions in outdoor spaces, it will cause microclimatic problems for pedestrians and adjacent buildings. Regarding the different thermal comfort conditions in outdoor spaces in comparison with indoor, several indices have b...

Experimental investigation on the thermal conductivity of Triethylene Glycol-Water-CuO nanofluids as a desiccant for dehydration process

Liquid desiccants such as glycols are used in dehydration process, among which Triethylene Glycol (TEG) is considered as a common choice. The addition of nanoparticles to TEG as the base fluid is one of the prevalent method to improve thermal properties of TEG. In this study, an experimental investigation was performed on thermal conductivity of TEG-based nanofluids with 20 and 40 nm diameter c...

Thermal precipitation for sampling air-borne microorganisms.

Concentration of the Protective Bodies in Antipneumococcus Serum by Means of Specific Precipitation

The addition of a water-clear extract of pneumococci to homologous antiserum produces a voluminous precipitate which carries down with it the agglutinins and practically the totality of the protective bodies against pneumococcus infection in animals. This precipitate when washed and resuspended in saline solution to the original volume of serum protects as well as the whole serum. The protein c...

Software Process as a Means to Support Learning Software Organizations

Software process improvement efforts are faced with a number of difficulties. The first is defining a uniform process in the face of diverse software development needs. Solutions to this problem often involve specifying the process at an abstract level, causing secondary problems, such as methodologies that are too watered down to be useful and the difficulty of obtaining feedback from developm...
