A study of adiabatic and diabatic flow boiling in parallel microchannels and fractal-like branching microchannels

Creator:

Daniels, Brian J.

Abstract:

A one-dimensional numerical model has been developed to study diabatic and adiabatic flow boiling in microchannels. This model accounts for developing flow effects and variable property effects. The model uses correlations for void fraction and two-phase multipliers found in the literature. The model has been used to study the performance...

How the animals found their places : pattern detection, experimentation, and epistemology in a high desert stream fish assemblage

Creator:

White, Seth Michael

Abstract:

I examined the relative roles of biotic and abiotic factors in structuring redband trout Oncorhynchus mykiss distributions in the South Fork John Day. I first examined the relationship between the biological traits of the fish assemblage and riparian-geomorphic features in context of prevailing theories of stream ecology stemming from the...
