The present study explains a steady-state method of measuring convective heat transfer coefficient on the casing of an axial flow turbine. The goal is to develop an accurate steadystate heat transfer method for the comparison of various casing surface and tip designs used for turbine performance improvements. The free-stream reference temperature, especially in the tip gap region of the casing ...

casing soil is one of the most important indicators of button mushroom production, which has a direct impact on the size and performance. due to the easy availability of resources for the production of vermicompost this mix can be used alternative of peat to button mushroom production. this study was conducted with nine treatments and three replications in¬¬ a completely randomized design at th...

The virtual-casing principle is used in plasma physics to convert a Biot–Savart integration over a current distribution into a surface integral over a surface that encloses the current. In many circumstances, use of virtual casing can significantly speed up the computation of magnetic fields. In this paper, a virtual-casing principle is derived for a general vector field with arbitrary divergen...

Casing coupling location signals provided by the magnetic localizer in retractors are typically used to ascertain the position of casing couplings in horizontal wells. However, the casing coupling location signal is usually submerged in noise, which will result in the failure of casing coupling detection under the harsh logging environment conditions. The limitation of Shannon wavelet time entr...

Despite evaluation of large number of agroindustrial wastes for their use as casing material for Agaricus bisporus (Lange) Imbach cultivation, scant attention has been given to the importance of biological properties of casing materials. In the present study, an attempt was made to characterize the bacterial flora in casing layer, namely, Farm Yard Manure (FYM) and Spent Mushroom Substrate/spen...

Dry bubble disease is a major problem in the commercial cultivation of the white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus and is caused by the ascomycete Lecanicillium fungicola. In the casing layer, germination of L. fungicola spores is inhibited by the microflora, a phenomenon known as fungistasis. Fungistasis is annulled when the casing is colonized by A. bisporus hyphae. We demonstrated that addit...

This paper presents a case study on the mechanical design and fabrication of the Pico Radio Test Bed: a wireless networking node produced from off–the-shelf components for experimentation with applications, networking, media access layer design, and position locating algorithms. Particular focus is placed on the systematic design process and resolving coupling design constraints between the mec...

one of the most important steps of agaricus bisporus production is casing. in this step a layer of soil is added on top of compost. peat is the most suitable casing soil for a. bisporus production. the lack of peat in iran is one of the major problems in a. bisporus production for mushroom producers. it seems that peat can be replaced by spent mushroom compost (smc). in order to study the possi...

a good knowledge of the parameters causing casing damage is critically important due to vital role of casing during the life of a well. cement sheath, which fills in the gap between the casing and wellbore wall, has a profound effect on the resistance of the casing against applied loads. most of the empirical equations proposed to estimate the collapse resistance of casing ignore the effects of...
