In India, Kerala state is known to have relatively high lightning incidence. The nature of spatial and temporal distribution of past incidents, type of thunderclouds which cause lightning, the topography, proximity to a mountain range and sea point to the possibility of the mountain weather aiding in Cb formation. For investigating the role of mountain weather in convective Cb formation a field...

in this study, mass transfer coefficients (mtc’s) of natural gas components during hydrate formation are reported. this work is based on the assumption that the transport of gas molecules from gas phase to aqueous phase is dominant among other resistances. several experiments were conducted on a mixture of natural gas at different pressures and temperatures and the consumed gas was monitored an...

The present review on some metal oxide nanoparticles used for pressure sensor, various metal oxide containing such as (SnO2, ZnO, Al2O3, WO3, Fe2O3, Ga2O3, TiO2 and SiC, ...etc.) responds detection pressure measure in kbar unit through oxygen activity as oxidation or reduction process of an integrated in devices sensor (MEMS, CMOS, MOX and MOXQ1D...etc.) that devices measuring of pressure as st...

This paper addresses systematic variations in the interpretation of indefinites and plurals when appearing within prepositional phrases and other spatial expressions. We show that these variations are explained when spatial processes in semantics locate the sets associated with properties and other setbased denotations of nominals. Starting with spatial indefinites we consider contrasts like th...

To comprehend spoken language, listeners must segment continuous speech into individual words. In cases where /s/ occurs on both sides of a word boundary (e.g., gas station) segmentation might be difficult because the two s-sounds blend together into one long s-sound. We report a series of experiments that examined how listeners segment such sequences, focusing on the contribution of lexical kn...

Moon RE, Cherry AD, Stolp BW, Camporesi EM. Pulmonary gas exchange in diving. J Appl Physiol 106: 668–677, 2009. First published November 13, 2008; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.91104.2008.—Diving-related pulmonary effects are due mostly to increased gas density, immersion-related increase in pulmonary blood volume, and (usually) a higher inspired PO2. Higher gas density produces an increase in airw...

We report measurements of ion energy distributions of ionized species in titanium and aluminium filtered cathodic vacuum arcs operating in oxygen and nitrogen gas atmospheres. The ion energy distributions were recorded using a Hiden mass selected ion energy analyzer. The results show that a significant reduction in ion energies and a change in the shape of ion energy distributions occurs as the...

natural convection heat transfer from a tube bundle in the indirect water bath heaters is investigated. a computer-code is used for the solution of the governing equations of mass, momentum and energy transfer based on the simple-c algorithm. simulations are carried out for the gas pressure station heater of kermanshah city with various tube bundle arrangements. in order to validate the numeric...
