An experimental test rig was developed to measure the amount of grinding fluid which flows through the grinding zone in straight plunge grinding. Proportional relationships were generally obtained between the flow rate from the nozzle and the useful flow rate of fluid passing through the grinding zone. The percentage of applied fluid passing through the grinding zone was found to depend mainly on the bulk porosity of the grinding wheel and the nozzle position. Wheel dressing has only a secondary influence, which is attributed to its influence on the surface porosity of the wheel. The workspeed and wheel depth of cut have virtually no influence.

Main Factors

A theoretical model of fluid flow in grinding has been developed by an analysis of fluid flow through a porous medium. Fluid tangential velocity, radial velocity, depth of penetration into the wheel, and the useful flow rate through the grinding zone are predicted by using this model. The analysis indicates that the nozzle position, nozzle velocity (or flow rate), and the effective wheel porosity are the three main factors which most significantly influence the useful flow rate through the grinding zone. A dimensionless effective wheel porosity parameter is introduced which is the ratio of the effective wheel porosity to its bulk porosity. By fitting the theoretical analysis to available experimental results, creep feed wheels were found to have much bigger dimensionless effective porosities than conventional wheels, which enhances their ability to more effectively pump fluid through the grinding zone.

Grinding Machine

In the grinding process, grinding fluid is delivered for the purposes of chip flushing, cooling, lubrication and chemical protection of work surface. Due to high speed rotating grinding wheel, the boundary layer of air around the grinding wheel restricts most of the grinding fluid away from the grinding zone. Hence, conventional method of delivering grinding fluid that flood delivery is not believed to fully penetrate this boundary layer and, thus, the majority of the grinding fluid is deflected away from the grinding zone. The flood grinding typically delivers large volumes of grinding fluid was ineffective, especially under high speed grinding conditions. In the paper, a theoretical model is presented for flow of grinding fluid through the grinding zone. The model shows that the flow rate through the contact zone between the wheel and the work surface depends on wheel porosity and wheel speed as well as depends on nozzle volumetric flow rate and fluid jet velocity. Furthermore, the model was tested by a surface grinding machine in order to correlate between experiment and theory. Consequently, the effective flow-rate model was found to give a good description of the experimental results and the model can well forecast the effective flow-rate in flood delivery grinding.

A model is presented for flow of grinding fluid through the grinding zone. It was found that the flow rate through the contact zone between the wheel and the workpiece is a function of fluid pressure in the grinding zone, delivery flow rate, fluid density, and wheel velocity. An empirical coefficient of value less than 1 is introduced. The coefficient depends on wheel geometry, jet velocity, abrasive property, and fluid property. Air flow interfering with the delivery grinding fluid is also analyzed. A relationship was found between atmospheric pressure and the retention of fluid particles in the boundary layer on the wheel periphery. The model was tested for both porous and impervious wheels.

Reconstitution of solubilized and purified membrane proteins in the presence of phospholipids into vesicles allows their functions to be studied by simple bulk measurements (e.g. diffusion of differently sized solutes) or by conductance measurements after transformation into planar membranes. On the other hand, reconstitution into regular protein-lipid arrays, usually forming at a specific lipid-to-protein ratio, provides the basis for determining the 3-dimensional structure of membrane proteins employing the tools of electron crystallography.To refine reconstitution conditions for reproducibly inducing formation of large and highly ordered protein-lipid membranes that are suitable for both electron crystallography and patch clamping experiments aimed at their functional characterization, we built a flow-dialysis device that allows precise control of temperature and flow-rate (Fig. 1). The flow rate is generated by a peristaltic pump and can be adjusted from 1 to 500 ml/h. The dialysis buffer is brought to a preselected temperature during its travel through a meandering path before it enters the dialysis reservoir. A Z-80 based computer controls a Peltier element allowing the temperature profile to be programmed as function of time.

Acid Anhydrides

Embedding media based upon an epoxy resin of choice and the acid anhydrides dodecenyl succinic anhydride (DDSA), nadic methyl anhydride (NMA), and catalyzed by the tertiary amine 2,4,6-Tri(dimethylaminomethyl) phenol (DMP-30) are widely used in biological electron microscopy. These media possess a viscosity character that can impair tissue infiltration, particularly if original Epon 812 is utilized as the base resin. Other resins that are considerably less viscous than Epon 812 now are available as replacements. Likewise, nonenyl succinic anhydride (NSA) and dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) are more fluid than their counterparts DDSA and DMP- 30 commonly used in earlier formulations. This work utilizes novel epoxy and anhydride combinations in order to produce embedding media with desirable flow rate and viscosity parameters that, in turn, would allow the medium to optimally infiltrate tissues. Specifically, embeding media based on EmBed 812 or LX 112 with NSA (in place of DDSA) and DMAE (replacing DMP-30), with NMA remaining constant, are formulated and offered as alternatives for routine biological work.Individual epoxy resins (Table I) or complete embedding media (Tables II-III) were tested for flow rate and viscosity. The novel media were further examined for their ability to infilftrate tissues, polymerize, sectioning and staining character, as well as strength and stability to the electron beam and column vacuum. For physical comparisons, a volume (9 ml) of either resin or media was aspirated into a capillary viscocimeter oriented vertically. The material was then allowed to flow out freely under the influence of gravity and the flow time necessary for the volume to exit was recored (Col B,C; Tables). In addition, the volume flow rate (ml flowing/second; Col D, Tables) was measured. Viscosity (n) could then be determined by using the Hagen-Poiseville relation for laminar flow, n = c.p/Q, where c = a geometric constant from an instrument calibration with water, p = mass density, and Q = volume flow rate. Mass weight and density of the materials were determined as well (Col F,G; Tables). Infiltration schedules utilized were short (1/2 hr 1:1, 3 hrs full resin), intermediate (1/2 hr 1:1, 6 hrs full resin) , or long (1/2 hr 1:1, 6 hrs full resin) in total time. Polymerization schedules ranging from 15 hrs (overnight) through 24, 36, or 48 hrs were tested. Sections demonstrating gold interference colors were collected on unsupported 200- 300 mesh grids and stained sequentially with uranyl acetate and lead citrate.

Severe drooling is associated with discomfort and psychosocial problems and may constitute a health risk. A variety of different surgical and non-surgical treatments have been used to diminish drooling, some of them with little or uncertain effect and others more effective but irreversible or with side effects. Based on clinical evidence, injection with botulinum toxin (BTX) into the parotid and submandibular glands is a useful treatment option, because it is local, reversible, and with few side effects, although it has to be repeated. The mechanism of BTX is a local inhibition of acetylcholine release, which diminishes receptor-coupled secretion and results in a flow rate reduction of 25–50% for 2–7 months.

Obesity has become one of the major health issues in India. WHO defines obesity as “A condition with excessive fat accumulation in the body to the extent that the health and wellbeing are adversely affected”. Obesity results from a complex interaction of genetic, behavioral, environmental and socioeconomic factors causing an imbalance in energy production and expenditure. Peak expiratory flow rate is the maximum rate of airflow that can be generated during forced expiratory manoeuvre starting from total lung capacity. The simplicity of the method is its main advantage. It is measured by using a standard Wright Peak Flow Meter or mini Wright Meter. The aim of the study is to see the effect of body mass index on Peak Expiratory Flow Rate values in young adults. The place of a study was done tertiary health care centre, in India for the period of 6 months. Study was performed on 80 subjects age group 20 -30 years, categorised as normal weight BMI =18.5 -24.99 kg/m2 and overweight BMI =25-29.99 kg/m2. There were 40 normal weight BMI (Group A) and 40 over weight BMI (Group B). BMI affects PEFR. Increase in BMI decreases PEFR. Early identification of risk individuals prior to the onset of disease is imperative in our developing country. Keywords: BMI, PEFR.
