An experimental study has been made of the local natural convective
heat transfer coefficient around the circumference of a heated
horizontal cylinder oscillating vertically in water. The heat transfer
surface consisted of a 1 3/8-inch diameter cylinder with a small test
section imbedded in its surface. This enabled data to...
This investigation was undertaken to determine, from a dietetic
standpoint, the amounts and proportions of dextrose, levulose and
sucrose present in Bosc pears, and to furnish information that might
be of value in the development of by-products from the off-grade

The attempt was made to carry...
A study was made on the effect of CCC (2-chloroethyl)-trimethyl-ammonium
chloride), a plant growth retardant, on the RNA (ribonucleic
acid) content of wheat plants, It was found that the RNA content of
wheat leaves generally decreased with increasing levels of CCC up to
1x10⁻⁵M. Thereafter, the RNA content again increased...
