An automatic, continuous analyzer has been developed which
is suitable for estimating the level of spent sulfite liquors (SSL) in
laboratory samples. The analyzer makes use of a version of the
Pearl-Benson, or nitroso method, and, in its present form, is
useful for samples whose actual SSL solids concentrations are...
Voltage scanning coulometry was used to study the effects of
electrode surfaces and metals on the electrochemistry of the ferric-ferrous couple and the silver ion-silver metal couple. The analytical
technique called voltage scanning coulometry is very similar to controlled
potential coulometry. The main difference is that in voltage
scanning coulometry...
An instrument was developed which performs analysis of the
oxygen content of air by means of a commercial polarographic oxygen
electrode. The oxygen analyzer is part of a portable instrument
which converts the current from the oxygen electrode into a pulse
whose width is proportional to the oxygen concentration. This...
A continuous amperometric monitor for aqueous sulfite solutions
has been developed employing the electro-oxidation of sulfur (IV)
in 0. 1 M sulfuric acid at a glassy carbon test electrode. The monitor
employs a hydrodynamic flow cell, in which the solution stream
enters the cell through an orifice impinging on the...
A new pulse method for measuring differential double layer
capacitances has been developed in this work. The technique is based
on the determination of the cell time constant which, for an ideally
polarized test electrode-solution interface, is composed of the double
layer capacitance and solution resistance. By applying small step...
The purpose of this research was to study the impact
phenomena of a tennis ball striking a hard surface.
Stroboscopic photography was used to collect the ball's
impact images from seven angles of incidence, ranging from
-23 degrees to -70 degrees with zero, top and back initial
spin respectively.
Through...
The lack of availability of a single, complete paper on the
analysis of a digital data acquisition system for in situ oceanographic
measurements brought about the present work. In order to compile
an accurate technical paper on such a complex system, it was necessary
to design, construct, and calibrate a...
