  • Membrane permeability properties of human granulocytes

    Creator:
    Vian, Alexander M.
    Abstract:
    In the last decade, there has been renewed interest in the use of granulocyte transfusions to treat infections in individuals with compromised immune systems. However, granulocytes only remain functional for about a day after isolation and this short shelf life is a significant drawback. Cryopreservation would allow long term storage...

  • Experimental study of subcooled water spray cooling using flow symmetric micro-structured surfaces

    Creator:
    Tulchinsky, Alex M.
    Abstract:
    Spray impingement cooling has been shown to be a leading candidate for future high heat flux cooling applications. In general, spray cooling curves consist of three heat flux regimes; single-phase, two-phase and critical heat flux (CHF). CHF is considered the design limit for almost all two-phase cooling applications, as a...

  • Influence of temperature on the extraction of Pu(IV) by tri-n-butyl phosphate from acidic nitrate solutions

    Creator:
    Brown, M. Alex
    Abstract:
    The goal of Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative program is to efficiently separate and recover actinides in attempts to reprocess irradiated nuclear fuel and reduce the necessary storage volume. In order to facilitate large-scale industrial applications of liquid-liquid separation processes, knowledge of the thermodynamic constants associated with the distribution of metal...
