Creator:: Hockman, Jeffrey Nathan
Abstract:: The literature cites several examples of investigations made concerning the size of bubbles rising in small particle fluidized beds at room temperature. In many practical applications, however, fluidized beds require the use of large particles at very high temperatures. Despite this fact, little information has been reported on bubble size...

Creator:: Sitthiphong, Norkun
Abstract:: The object of this research study is to investigate and provide some fundamental information about bed slumping in a partially defluidized bed combustor. Due to the difficulty in making measurements and observations at high temperature, a dynamically similar cold phase fluidized bed was used to model the high temperature case....

Creator:: Wang, De-qian
Abstract:: Freezing is one of the important technologies for preservation of foods. In this project, using surimi as a food model, thermophysical properties of frozen foods were evaluated and the freezing process was simulated using a finite element package. To measure temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, a line-source probe system was used. Effects...

Creator:: Hong, Seung-Ho
Abstract:: Heat transfer and fluid mechanical behavior of water flowing horizontally in vertically-narrow rectangular channels was studied in this work. Friction factor and Nusselt number variations were determined experimentally for four different wall heating conditions, and for aspect ratios(height to width) of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. Wall heating conditions...

Creator:: Rompho, Nopadol
Abstract:: The importance of two sources of NO formation, nitrogen in combustion air and nitrogen in the fuel, during black liquor combustion was studied using a laminar entrained flow reactor. Pyrolysis and combustion experiments were conducted in nitrogen atmosphere and in a mixture of argon and helium in the composition 99%...

Creator:: Cerbone, G. (Giuseppe)
Abstract:: Many important application problems in engineering can be formalized as nonlinear optimization tasks. However, numerical methods for solving such problems are brittle and do not scale well. For example, these methods depend critically on choosing a good starting point from which to perform the optimization search. In high-dimensional spaces, numerical...

Creator:: Omoto, Holly
Abstract:: Post-mortem examinations were performed on 29 deceased Persian kittens from 13 different litters, and 30 deceased Devon Rex kittens from 18 different litters in order to identify gross anatomical abnormalities. Fifteen kittens were stillborn (8 Devon Rex, 7 Persian), 17 kittens died during the first day of life (16 Devon...
