Agricultural boom sprayers are equipped with injection sprayers of mainly foreign origin. The main parameters of the injection sprayers shown in the catalogs display the consumption characteristics in cer­tain ranges without taking into account the design parameters.(Research purpose)Determination of the design and technological parameters of an injection sprayer for the introduction of pesticides.(Materials and methods)The injection sprayer belongs to the class of two­phase liquid­gas isothermal jet devices with the formation of an air­gas mixture at the outlet. It has been established that the design model of the working process of an injection sprayer is based both on the laws of the conservation of mass, energy, momentum, as well as theoretical relation­ships in the form of equations describing two­phase jet devices, and empirical relationships characterizing flow parameters, geometric transverse and longitudinal dimensions of the spray channels.(Results and discussion)The following analytical relationships have been obtained: the relative pressure difference generated by an injec­tion sprayer and the volume injection coefficient for different surface area ratios of the working nozzle to the flow section of the sprayer; the ratio between the cross­sectional area of the mixing chamber to the area of the working nozzle outlet and the injection ratio; relative pressure difference and the injection ratio; the ratio be­tween the cross­sectional area of the mixing chamber and the working nozzle and the relative pressure difference. The authors have determined a set of dimensionless pressure characteristics of the injection sprayer for different ratios between the cross­sectional areas of the working nozzle and the mixing chamber. It has been established that the ratio between the cross sections of the mixing chamber area and the working nozzle area increases as the injection ratio increases. It has been shown that for each injection coefficient, there is an achievable relative pressure difference in the injection sprayer.(Conclusions)The authors have proposed the design equations that determine the characteristics of an injection sprayer and its main design parameters – the diameters of nozzle and mixing chambers. They have calculated the main dimensions of the sprayer for aerial top­dressing by introducing working solutions of pesticides.

In a paper on this subject published four years age, Hartridge and Roughton (1927) described some preliminary experiments upon the rate of uptake of oxygen and carbon monoxide by the red blood corpuscle, the observations being made by means of their reaction velocity technique (Hartridge and Roughton, 1922–1927). The general principles of the method were as follows. Through one lead of the apparatus a suspension of reduced corpuscles in saline was forces into the mixing chamber, whilst through the other lead was forced a solution of oxygen (or carbon monoxide) in saline. The two fluids mixed in the mixing chamber within 0·001 second or less and then travelled down the observation tube. Determination of the percentage of oxyhæmoglobin (or carboxyhæmoglobin) in the moving fluid at various cross sections of the observation tube was made by means of the reversion spectroscope, these measurements, together with a knowledge of the rate of flow of the fluid down the observation tube, giving the necessary data for plotting the rate of uptake of O 2 or CO by the corpuscles against time. The most interesting feature of the results was the much slower uptake of O 2 by hæmoglobin in the intact corpuscle as compared with the of O 2 by hæmoglobin in laked solution as previously recorded by Hartridge and Roughton (1925). In the corpuscle experiments the time scale had to be expressed in hundredths of a second instead of in thousandths of a second as in the hæmoglobin solution experiments ( vide fig. 2 of Hartridge and Roghton, 1927). Confirmatory results by somewhat different technique have been obtained lately by Dirken and Mook (1931). These will be referred to again later.

The article presents the results of numerical simulations and experimental studies of a liquid-liquid ejector with a curved initial portion of the mixing chamber. The experiment was conducted on liquid-liquid ejectors, models of which are made on a 3D printer, by the method of layer-by-layer deposition. The influence of possible manufacturing errors of the ejector on its characteristics is estimated. The issues of the use of liquid ejectors designed to work in the field of various predetermined ejection coefficients are considered. The theoretical ejection coefficient and the reasons for reducing the ejection coefficient in real ejectors are determined. The obtained dependences make it possible to determine the optimal design parameters of a liquid ejector and thereby increase its ejection coefficient. The relative pressure drop is shown at a low coefficient and at a high ejection coefficient. The calculated and experimental results of determining the ejection coefficient for liquid ejectors, which are widely used in various fields of technology, are presented. The results of numerical simulation of internal processes in the ANSYS-Fluent hydro-gasdynamic application package flowing in a single-phase liquidliquid ejector based on the study of a small-sized model are presented. As a result of the simulation, a good agreement was obtained between the calculation results of the model corresponding to the real prototype and the experimental data and comparison with the results of other authors. Several conclusions can be drawn from the results of the study. For example, a region of values of the ejection coefficient was found in which the relative pressure drop created by the ejector increases with an increase in the ejection coefficient.

Studies of stress distribution across cross sections by polarization-optical method made it possible to propose a relatively simple experimental method of determining contact forces. Experimental determination of contact forces on crossbars of switches is possible by means of sensors located in places of stress concentration (at core base). Analysis of oscillations during impact-pulse loading makes it possible to determine design parameters of the path. Typically, single circuits with four to five degrees of freedom produce quite satisfactory results and may be recommended for the calculated determination of contact forces on the crossbars of the switches.

This article analyzes the possibility of increasing the efficiency of using downhole jet pumps by swirling the injected flow. To analyze the peculiarities of the local swirling of injected flow, design and technological parameters in the form of the inclination angle of guiding elements, the diameter of the helical trajectory described by the fluid particles, and the flow rates of the swirling flow are studied. Based on the application of the conservation law of fluid momentum in adjacent jets with a parabolic pressure distribution, equations to determine the pressure characteristic of a jet pump are obtained, taking into account the additional dynamic pressure made by swirling the injected flow. In the process of analyzing the obtained relations, has been set the dependence of the relative pressure growth and the efficiency of the ejection system under the conditions of injected flow swirling on the relative flow rate of a jet pump, and an inversely proportional dependence of the above parameters on its main geometric parameter in the form of the ratio of cross-sectional areas of the mixing chamber and the nozzle.

Insufficient energy performance of ejection equipment and a high probability of non-operating modes of its operation reduce the efficiency of downhole jet pumps. The method of determining the design and operating parameters of the well ejection system, which provide the maximum efficiency of the jet pump, is presented.  The proposed algorithm for determining the optimal values of the geometric dimensions of the flowing part of the jet pump involves the construction of a series of pressure characteristics for different values of its geometric parameter, the calculation of the efficiency and the determination of the injection ratio and the relative pressure corresponding to its maximum values.  During the studies, the main geometric parameter of the jet pump varied in the range from 2 to 6, given that these geometric dimensions are used in jet devices common in the oil industry. The optimal dimensions of the current part of the jet pump are obtained in the process of studying its pressure characteristics, and the optimal dimensions of the washing system of the bit - in the process of studying the characteristics of the hydraulic system. The design of an at-bit ejection system, which allows to increase the mechanical drilling speed, the passage of the bit, to stabilize the moment on the bit, to reduce its level of vibration and to control the antiaircraft angles of the well is considered. The efficiency of using at-bit jet pumps is in the following: an increase in the mechanical drilling speed up to 18.7%, the passage of the bit up to 50.8%. The research established the optimal diameters of the working nozzle, mixing chamber and bit nozzles, the distance between the working nozzle and the mixing chamber, the injection ratio and the relative pressure of the at-bit jet pump. The obtained values ​​of design and mode parameters exclude the occurrence of cavitation modes of operation of the ejection system and allow the operation of jet pumps with maximum efficiency.

The theory of multiple scattering has been worked out by Groves and comparisons have been made between predicted and observed signals for thick specimens observed in a STEM under conditions where phase contrast effects are unimportant. Independent measurements of the collection efficiencies of the two STEM detectors, calculations of the ratio σe/σi = R, where σe, σi are the total cross sections for elastic and inelastic scattering respectively, and a model of the unknown mass distribution are needed for these comparisons. In this paper an extension of this work will be described which allows the determination of the required efficiencies, R, and the unknown mass distribution from the data without additional measurements or models. Essential to the analysis is the fact that in a STEM two or more signal measurements can be made simultaneously at each image point.

Microanalysis by EELS has been developing rapidly and though the general form of the spectrum is now understood there is a need to put the technique on a more quantitative basis (1,2). Certain aspects important for microanalysis include: (i) accurate determination of the partial cross sections, σx(α,ΔE) for core excitation when scattering lies inside collection angle a and energy range ΔE above the edge, (ii) behavior of the background intensity due to excitation of less strongly bound electrons, necessary for extrapolation beneath the signal of interest, (iii) departures from the simple hydrogenic K-edge seen in L and M losses, effecting σx and complicating microanalysis. Such problems might be approached empirically but here we describe how computation can elucidate the spectrum shape.The inelastic cross section differential with respect to energy transfer E and momentum transfer q for electrons of energy E0 and velocity v can be written as

Fabrics recovered from archaeological sites often are so badly degraded that fiber identification based on physical morphology is difficult. Although diagenetic changes may be viewed as destructive to factors necessary for the discernment of fiber information, changes occurring during any stage of a fiber's lifetime leave a record within the fiber's chemical and physical structure. These alterations may offer valuable clues to understanding the conditions of the fiber's growth, fiber preparation and fabric processing technology and conditions of burial or long term storage (1).Energy dispersive spectrometry has been reported to be suitable for determination of mordant treatment on historic fibers (2,3) and has been used to characterize metal wrapping of combination yarns (4,5). In this study, a technique is developed which provides fractured cross sections of fibers for x-ray analysis and elemental mapping. In addition, backscattered electron imaging (BSI) and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDS) are utilized to correlate elements to their distribution in fibers.

It has been demonstrated that cross sections of bundles of hair can be effectively studied using image analysis. These studies can help to elucidate morphological differences of hair from one region of the body to another. The purpose of the present investigation was to use image analysis to determine whether morphological differences could be demonstrated between male and female human Caucasian terminal scalp hair.Hair samples were taken from the back of the head from 18 caucasoid males and 13 caucasoid females (Figs. 1-2). Bundles of 50 hairs were processed for cross-sectional examination and then analyzed using Prism Image Analysis software on a Macintosh llci computer. Twenty morphological parameters of size and shape were evaluated for each hair cross-section. The size parameters evaluated were area, convex area, perimeter, convex perimeter, length, breadth, fiber length, width, equivalent diameter, and inscribed radius. The shape parameters considered were formfactor, roundness, convexity, solidity, compactness, aspect ratio, elongation, curl, and fractal dimension.
