Lime production is a process that entail complex material and energy transport and chemical reaction. Efficient lime production processes are realized via well structured design models approach . Simulation of such process design models essentially provides Information on the attractive features and technical limitations of such processes which serves as guide for normal operations. The choice ...

In order to investigate the mechanical properties of lime mudstone, conventional triaxial compression tests under different confining pressures (0, 5, 15 and 20 MPa) are performed on lime mudstone samples. The test results show that, from the overall perspective of variation law, the axial peak stress, axial peak strain and elastic modulus of lime mudstone tend to gradually increase with increa...

In this paper we argue that the notion of transiently shared tuple space, originally introduced by the Lime model and middleware to support application development in mobile ad hoc networks, can be successfully applied also to wireless sensor networks (WSNs). While the two scenarios are similar, the peculiar constraints posed by the WSNs (e.g., in terms of resources and energy) require non-triv...

Lime granule quality inspection is an important task in the pulp and paper industry. In this paper a new method, build-up on a neural network and a path search method, is introduced for lime granule automatic visual inspection. Several correction steps to Landau’s method are also introduced.

Internal Turn-Turn faults (TTF) are the most common failures in power transformers, which could seriously reduce their life expectancy. Although common protection schemes such as current-baseddifferential protection are able to detect some of the internal faults, some other minor ones (such as TTFs andshort circuit near the neutral point) cannot be detected by such schemes. Likewise, these rela...

This paper proposes the virtual flux based direct power control for Vienna rectifier. No need for the input voltage sensors, the current regulation loop and PWM voltage modulation block along with the active and reactive power decoupling are some of the salient advantages of this method that make it suitable for controlling the conventional active rectifiers. However, due to the three-level nat...

Background: Lime juice is a nutritious drink, which is generally consumed for its' refreshing properties, nutritive value, vitamin content, and health benefits. Therefore, the chemical and microbiological quality of the traditional and industrial lime juice produced in Kashan city was assessed. Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, a total of 106 samples were collected and screene...

The efficiency of the carbon dioxide absorption by soda lime was determined in the following way. (1) " Circle " breathing. In six experiments, a subject breathing through a Waters canister fully packed with 425 g of fresh soda lime was connected to a closed circuit spirometer as described by Erikson et al. (1951). The expired air then passed the canister before entering the spirometer where th...

the effect of four citrus rootstocks {sour orange (citrus aurantium), bakraeii (c. reticulata × c. limetta, mexican lime (c. aurantifolia) and volkamerlemon (c. volkameriana)} were evaluated on sweet lime leaf chlorophyll content and mineral concentrations (n, p, k, ca, na, mg, fe, zn, mn, cl, cu, and b) in a completely randomized design of four replications. budded sweet lime on the above root...
