Extract Information

Information about the conditions and reactions in a foundry cupola is essential to understand the thermochemistry of a cupola and thus improve its efficiency. A potential source of such information is coke taken from inside an operating cupola. In the region of the cupola that extends from the melt zone to the taphole, coke is directly involved in important chemical processes such as combustion, gasification, slag formation, iron sulfurization, carbon pickup, and oxide reduction. Coke is also suspected of being involved in the transport of silicon to the liquid iron. Each of these processes produces characteristic physical and/or chemical changes in the coke, making it possible to extract information about the processes from an examination of coke pieces taken from within an operating cupola. A program to study such coke samples is in progress. To effectively interpret these data it is necessary to know the temperature history of the coke being examined, especially the maximum temperature attained by the coke piece in the cupola.

Inverse Analysis Method

Transient thermal stresses develop in pipes during start-up and shut-down. In previous papers the present authors [1–4] proposed an inverse method for determining the optimum thermal inlet liquid temperature history which reduced the maximum transient thermal stress in pipes. The papers considered multiphysics including heat conduction, heat transfer, and elastic deformation. The inverse method used the relationship between inner surface temperature history, transient temperature distribution and transient thermal stresses. The coefficient of heat transfer plays an important role in the evaluation of thermal stress. In this study an inverse method was developed for estimating heat flux and temperature-dependence of the coefficient of heat transfer from the history of the outer surface temperature and the liquid temperature. The method used the relationship between the outer surface temperature and the inner surface temperature. For the regularization of solution the function expansion method was applied in expressing the history of flux on the inner surface. Numerical simulations demonstrated the usefulness of the proposed inverse analysis method. By examining the effect of measurement errors of temperature on the estimation, the robustness of the method was shown.

The calculating of reached ageing based on the history of loading according of International Electrotechnical Commission standard algorithm is the first task. In order to verify the obtained results, measurements of polymerization index were made on 28 paper samples taken directly from low voltage terminals (winding ends) and bus connections of the transformer under test rated 380 MVA, 2?15,75 kV/420 kV. The complete procedure of paper sample locations and taking off is described, thereby providing a manner of how this should be done, determined by specific conditions of the transformer under test. Furthermore, the determination of limit viscosity and using its relationship function with polymerization index are explained together. Comparison is made with those of liquid chromatography of oil. The results of particle sort and size analysis are shown. Finally, an estimation of the transformer life remainder is made, which is of paramount importance when defining the steps that have to be made either in revitalization process or in transformer replacement planning.

Abstract This article presents a history of the origins and development of the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides), from the publication of an article titled “A Guide to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment of the Extremities and Back” (1958) until a compendium of thirteen guides was published in book form in 1971. The most recent, sixth edition, appeared in 2008. Over time, the AMA Guides has been widely used by US states for workers’ compensation and also by the Federal Employees Compensation Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act, as well as by Canadian provinces and other jurisdictions around the world. In the United States, almost twenty states have developed some form of their own impairment rating system, but some have a narrow range and scope and advise evaluators to consult the AMA Guides for a final determination of permanent disability. An evaluator's impairment evaluation report should clearly document the rater's review of prior medical and treatment records, clinical evaluation, analysis of the findings, and a discussion of how the final impairment rating was calculated. The resulting report is the rating physician's expert testimony to help adjudicate the claim. A table shows the edition of the AMA Guides used in each state and the enabling statute/code, with comments.

Component Parallel

A method has been formulated for the determination of thermal stresses in materials which harden in the presence of an exothermic chemical reaction. Hardening is described by the transformation of the material from an inviscid liquid-like state into an elastic solid, where intermediate states consist of a mixture of the two, in a ratio which is determined by the degree of chemical reaction. The method is illustrated in terms of an infinite slab cast between two rigid mold surfaces. It is found that the stress component normal to the slab surfaces vanishes in the residual state, so that removal of the slab from the mold leaves the remaining residual stress unchanged. On the other hand, the residual stress component parallel to the slab surfaces does not vanish. Its distribution is described as a function of the parameters of the hardening process.

AbstractRemote sensing observations suffer significant limitations when used to study the bulk atmospheric composition of the giant planets of our Solar System. This impacts our knowledge of the formation of these planets and the physics of their atmospheres. A remarkable example of the superiority of in situ probe measurements was illustrated by the exploration of Jupiter, where key measurements such as the determination of the noble gases’ abundances and the precise measurement of the helium mixing ratio were only made available through in situ measurements by the Galileo probe. Here we describe the main scientific goals to be addressed by the future in situ exploration of Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, placing the Galileo probe exploration of Jupiter in a broader context. An atmospheric entry probe targeting the 10-bar level would yield insight into two broad themes: i) the formation history of the giant planets and that of the Solar System, and ii) the processes at play in planetary atmospheres. The probe would descend under parachute to measure composition, structure, and dynamics, with data returned to Earth using a Carrier Relay Spacecraft as a relay station. An atmospheric probe could represent a significant ESA contribution to a future NASA New Frontiers or flagship mission to be launched toward Saturn, Uranus, and/or Neptune.
