This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Measurement of Gases Where Density Changes On the particular 'question of gas measurement, where the density changes, we receive a great many inquiries, and in defense of this article, can best illustrate by quoting extracts of letters actually received as follows: For information you will please advise me on a few points in regard to your meters. Would a meter working under a pressure of less than fifty pounds, say twenty pounds, give the true amount of gas registered, or would the meter reading have to be multiplied by some number to arrive at the true amount of gas passing through it? Say that the dial of the meter shows cu. Ft., and the average pressure was 15 pounds for the twenty-four hours, what should the reading be if not taken as shown by the meter? We have on our gas lease a meter delivering gas to a farmer, and my understanding is that under the pressure at the wells, viz., 45 pounds, we are delivering more gas than the meter shows. Will you kindly advise me what multiplier table should be used with the meter as shown above? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Measuring the Flow of Gases The problem of measuring and recording the volume of gases flow ing in pipes and ducts is one that is engaging the attention of engineers more and more every day. In the various industries where gas is used or produced, such as steel plants, producer plants, chemical factories, mines, etc., the manage ment realizes that accurate information concerning the volume of gas used or produced is not only exceedingly valuable in checking operation but in many cases absolutely necessary. The greatest difficulty with volumetric measurement of gases is that the laws governing the flow of elastic fluids are not generally under stood by many engineers and when they are understood, the calcula tions involved are so long and tedious that they are discouraging, The object of this pamphlet is to present to those interested, a few of the fundamental principles of the flow of elastic fluids, to facilitate the calculations by means of curves, to show and explain several of the most approved methods of making volumetric measurements and to point out the precautions that must be taken to insure accurate results.

Download or read book Methods of Gas Analysis Classic Reprint written by Walther Hempel and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods of Gas Analysis IN publishing my New Methods for the Analysis of Gases, it was not my intention to write a manual of gas analysis, but merely to describe my own re searches and the construction of apparatus. My present plan, however, after ten years' experience and the most varied work with gases and their analysis, is to describe all of the operations which are involved in the analysis of gases with my appa ratus. I have thought to give the book especial value by limiting myself to the description of those methods which, in my opinion, are at the present time the most practical. I have hot endeavoured to give a complete description of all known methods, because the book would then become too bulky to be used as the laboratory guide which it is intended to be. The apparatus devised by Pettersson has been described, because a wholly new principle in the measurement of gases is there brought into use. In the following pages I hope to give a guide to gas analysis by the help of which the various examina tions, even the most difficult, can be carried out.

Download or read book The Free Expansion of Gases written by Joseph Sweetman Ames and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Free Expansion of Gases: Memoirs by Gay-Lussac, Joule and Joule and Thomson The experiments on the changes Of temperature which gases experience when they are allowed to expand under such conditions as to do no external work are of great importance from two standpoints: 1. Owing to the minuteness of the change of temperature, it may be assumed that the intrinsic energy of a gas is almost entirely kinetic; and so conclusions may be drawn between the mechanical work done in compress ing a gas and the rise of temperature produced 2. Measure ments Of the minute changes lead to a method of comparing temperatures as registered on a gas-thermometer and those which are given on Thomson's Absolute Scale. Robert Mayer assumed that there was no internal work done in compressing a gas, and so made a calculation for what is now called the mechanical equivalent of heat. The question as to whether Mayer was acquainted with the experiments of gay-lussac at the time he made his calculation or not has long been an open one but it is generally acknowledged now that he was familiar with the results obtained by gay-lussac. And so was justified in his theoretical work. Gay-lussac per formed his experiments ou the free expansion of gases in the year 1807; and a translation of his memoir is given in this volume.

This book was released on 2003-07-28 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces physics students and teachers to the historical development of the kinetic theory of gases, by providing a collection of the most important contributions by Clausius, Maxwell and Boltzmann, with introductory surveys explaining their significance. In addition, extracts from the works of Boyle, Newton, Mayer, Joule, Helmholtz, Kelvin and others show the historical context of ideas about gases, energy and irreversibility. In addition to five thematic essays connecting the classical kinetic theory with 20th century topics such as indeterminism and interatomic forces, there is an extensive international bibliography of historical commentaries on kinetic theory, thermodynamics, etc. published in the past four decades.The book will be useful to historians of science who need primary and secondary sources to be conveniently available for their own research and interpretation, along with the bibliography which makes it easier to learn what other historians have already done on this subject.
Download or read book Fundamental Aspects of Inert Gases in Solids written by S.E. Donnelly and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1991-11-30 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Fundamental Aspects of Inert Gases in Solids, held at Bonas, France from 16-22 September 1990, was the fifth in a series of meetings that have been held in this topic area since 1979. The Consultants' Meeting in that year at Harwell on Rare Gas Behaviour in Metals and Ionic Solids was followed in 1982 by the Jiilich Inter national Symposium on Fundamental Aspects of Helium in Metals. Two smaller meetings have followed-a CECAM organised workshop on Helium Bubbles in Metals was held at Orsay, France in 1986 while in February 1989, a Topical Symposium on Noble Gases in Metals was held in Las Vegas as part of the large TMS/AIME Spring Meeting. As is well known, the dominating feature of inert gas atoms in most solids is their high heat of solution, leading in most situations to an essentially zero solubility and gas-atom precipita tion. In organising the workshop, one particular aim was to target the researchers in the field of inert-gas/solid interactions from three different areas--namely metals, tritides and nuclear fuels-in order to encourage and foster the cross-fertilisation of approaches and ideas. In these three material classes, the behaviour of inert gases in metals has probably been most studied, partly from technological considerations-the effects of helium production via (n, a) reac tions during neutron irradiation are of importance, particularly in a fusion reactor environ ment-and partly from a more fundamental viewpoint.

Download or read book Twilight in the Desert written by Matthew R. Simmons and published by Wiley + ORM. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twilight in the Desert reveals a Saudi oil and production industry that could soon approach a serious, irreversible decline. In this exhaustively researched book, veteran oil industry analyst Matthew Simmons draws on his three-plus decades of insider experience and more than 200 independently produced reports about Saudi petroleum resources and production operations. He uncovers a story about Saudi Arabias troubled oil industry, not to mention its political and societal instability, which differs sharply from the globally accepted Saudi version. Its a story that is provocative and disturbing, based on undeniable facts, but until now never told in its entirety. Twilight in the Desert answers all readers questions about Saudi oil and production industries with keen examination instead of unsubstantiated posturing, and takes its place as one of the most important books of this still-young century.

Download or read book Clinical Exercise Testing written by Idelle M. Weisman and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last several years, Clinical Exercise Testing has become an increasingly important tool for patient evaluation in clinical medicine due to a growing awareness of the limitations of traditional resting cardiopulmonary measurements. Emphasizing scientific and technological advances and focusing on clinical applications for patient diagnosis and management, this volume provides a comprehensive interdisciplinary review of clinical exercise testing, concentrating on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET). 25 reader-friendly chapters discuss important topics, including the physiologic responses to exercise in normal subjects, in the aged and in various disease states; the set-up of an exercise lab; the methodology and protocols used for clinical exercise testing; and an integrative approach to the interpretation of CPET results. CPET in heart failure, deconditioning, COPD, ILD, pulmonary vascular disease, neuromuscular disease, and asthma is thoroughly discussed. Clinical applications including pulmonary and cardiac rehabilitation, heart and lung transplantation evaluation, unexplained exertional dyspnea assessment, evaluation for lung resection and lung volume reduction surgery, and impairment-disability evaluation are also covered in detail. Additional chapters on clinical exercise testing in children, during pregnancy and the postpartum, and in other systemic disorders complete this extensive publication. Written by well-respected experts, this volume will be a valuable resource for a wide audience including pulmonologists, cardiologists, pediatricians, exercise physiologists, rehabilitation specialists, nurse clinician specialists, and respiratory therapists.
Download or read book Optical Trapping And Manipulation Of Neutral Particles Using Lasers A Reprint Volume With Commentaries written by Arthur Ashkin and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-12-29 with total page 941 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important volume contains selected papers and extensive commentaries on laser trapping and manipulation of neutral particles using radiation pressure forces. Such techniques apply to a variety of small particles, such as atoms, molecules, macroscopic dielectric particles, living cells, and organelles within cells. These optical methods have had a revolutionary impact on the fields of atomic and molecular physics, biophysics, and many aspects of nanotechnology.In atomic physics, the trapping and cooling of atoms down to nanokelvins and even picokelvin temperatures are possible. These are the lowest temperatures in the universe. This made possible the first demonstration of Bose-Einstein condensation of atomic and molecular vapors. Some of the applications are high precision atomic clocks, gyroscopes, the measurement of gravity, cryptology, atomic computers, cavity quantum electrodynamics and coherent atom lasers.A major application in biophysics is the study of the mechanical properties of the many types of motor molecules, mechanoenzymes, and other macromolecules responsible for the motion of organelles within cells and the locomotion of entire cells. Unique in vitro and in vivo assays study the driving forces, stepping motion, kinetics, and efficiency of these motors as they move along the cell's cytoskeleton. Positional and temporal resolutions have been achieved, making possible the study of RNA and DNA polymerases, as they undergo their various copying, backtracking, and error correcting functions on a single base pair basis.Many applications in nanotechnology involve particle and cell sorting, particle rotation, microfabrication of simple machines, microfluidics, and other micrometer devices. The number of applications continues to grow at a rapid rate.The author is the discoverer of optical trapping and optical tweezers. With his colleagues, he first demonstrated optical levitation, the trapping of atoms, and tweezer trapping and manipulation of living cells and biological particles.This is the only review volume covering the many fields of optical trapping and manipulation. The intention is to provide a selective guide to the literature and to teach how optical traps really work.
