This thesis examines the transient performance of packed bed heat
regenerators when very large temperature differences are involved. The
effects of gas temperature on the key gas physical properties of velocity,
density and heat capacity were studied via simulation.
Three models were developed and compared. The first model
(HRKDV) considers...
A method for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of hybrid
poplar (Populus alba x P. grandidentata) suspension cultures and
regeneration of transformed plants is described. The best protocol
was one in which suspension cultures were inoculated with
Agrobacterium tumefaciens to a density of 10⁷ cfu's/ml, cocultivated
for 48 hours, plated to cellulose acetate...
