Reducing the Lubricating Oil Consumption (LOC) has been a critical focus for engine manufacturers. LOC not only depends on operating condition but also history of variations. This work seeks to understand oil transport in ring pack during low load high transient through experimental investigations. An optical with 2D Laser Induced Fluorescence (2D-LIF) technique, equipped modern low-tension Thr...

Besides its great potential in controlling water pollution from different sources, waste water treatment system generates significant amount of greenhouse gases. Hence, reducing the emission of greenhouse gases from the wastewater treatment plants is the major concern. The correct understanding and estimation of the greenhouse gases emitted from different points of the plan is essential to tack...

Results from air pollution exposure assessment studies suggest that ambient fine particles [particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter<or=2.5 microg (PM2.5)], but not ambient gases, are strong proxies of corresponding personal exposures. For particles, the strength of the personal-ambient association can differ by particle component and level of home ventilation. For gases, however, such as o...

Submitted for the MAR08 Meeting of The American Physical Society Interference between atomic Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer gases TUN WANG, Austrian Academy of Science, SUSANNE YELIN, Univ. of Connecticut — We study the interference between two atomic Bardeen-CooperSchrieffer (BCS) gases using noise correlations. Fringes as seen in the interference between two Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs) do not...

Ideal gases are gases in which the particles of the gas only interact through elastic collisions; there are no intermolecular forces between the particles. Real gases can approximate ideal gases at conditions of low pressure and high temperature where the intermolecular forces are negligible. Under those conditions the equation of state for an ideal gas holds: PV=nRT (1) where the pressure (P) ...

Remote plasma activated chemical vapor deposition (RPACVD) is an attractive fabrication technique owing to the increased selectivity of radical generation which can be obtained compared to deposition techniques in which the substrate is immersed in the plasma. This selectivity can be compromised if the deposition gases, which are typically injected downstream of the plasma zone, back-diffuse in...

We have investigated the catalytic layer in zirconium-doped cerium oxide, Ce0.9Zr0.1O2 (CeZr10) resistive oxygen sensors for reducing the effects of flammable gases, namely hydrogen and carbon monoxide. When the concentration of flammable gases is comparable to that of oxygen, the resistance of CeZr10 is affected by the presence of these gases. We have developed layered thick films, which consi...

We use thermochemical equilibrium and kinetic calculations to model sulfur and phosphorus chemistry in the atmospheres of giant planets, brown dwarfs, low-mass stars, and extrasolar giant planets (EGPs). The chemical behavior of individual Sand P-bearing gases and condensates is determined as a function of pressure, temperature, and metallicity. Our results are independent of any particular mod...
