This paper is about the analysis 0f the liquid discharge by falling film within a distillation tube. Specifically about some flow rates that can be used in this process, when we talk about film ́s discharge and maintenance. This aim of this paper is to study through simulations in CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) what influence the feeding flow rate has on the film ́s formation, its stability a...

introduction: prolonged and intermittent oxygen pre-exposure is associated with protection against ischemic reperfusion (ir) injury. in the current study, attempts were made to investigate the relationship between exposure to prolonged and intermittent normobaric hyperoxia (nbho) and expression of excitatory amino acids transporters (eaats) and tnf-α level. method: rats were divided into four m...

Abstract In the Arctic, subglacial discharge plumes have been recently recognised as a key driver of fjord-scale circulation. However, owing to danger that accompanies prolonged observations at plumes, no time-series data are available. Here, we present results showing chaotic and irregular dynamics plume revealed by continuous subsurface monitoring directly on calving front Greenlandic glacier...

OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that continuous gastric infusion (CGI) is better tolerated than intermittent gastric bolus (IGB) in small very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. DESIGN Two-center, prospective, randomized, unmasked clinical trial. PATIENTS 28 VLBW infants (birth weight <1250 g). A strict feeding protocol was followed. INTERVENTION Patients were randomized to IGB or CGI. M...

PURPOSE The PiCCO System is a relatively new device allowing intermittent cardiac output monitoring by aortic transpulmonary thermodilution technique (Aorta intermittent) and continuous cardiac output monitoring by pulse contour analysis (Aorta continuous). The objective of this study was to assess the level of agreement of Aorta intermittent and Aorta continuous with intermittent (PA intermitt...
