In the present work, surface thermometry using a method based on the spectroscopy of inorganic luminescent material was applied in the afterburner of a full-size aircraft jet engine. The technique uses laser-induced emission from thermographic phosphors for nonintrusive remote temperature diagnostics in combustion applications with high sensitivity and accuracy. A phosphor material having suitable
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens samhälle är väldigt beroende av fordon av olika slag. Aldrig förr har människor rest till olika delar av världen, så mycket som idag. Den enorma mängden resors och transporter som sker varje dag är en tung belastning för vår natur. Bilar och lastbilar, som ökar i antal varje dag, släpper ut giftiga avgaser på vägarna och flygplan förbrukar enorma mängder fossilt Urban traffic involves frequent acceleration and deceleration. During deceleration, the energy previously used to accelerate the vehicle is mainly wasted on heat generated by the friction brakes. If this energy that is wasted in traditional internal combustion engines (ICE) could be saved, the fuel economy would improve. Today there are several solutions to meet the demand for better fuel economy
In today's competitive society the difference between winning and disappearing might very well be dependent on who is first to release a new product or an update to an existing product to the market. The impact that this situation has on the design analysis department in a company is tremendous. It is a known fact, to everyone working with design analysis, that the demands on analyses from the pro
Utilities, such as steam or cooling water, have shown to play an important role within the process industry, since a malfunctioning utility is a plant-wide disturbance that can lead to large revenue losses due to reduced production quantities. This work focuses on identifying disturbances on utilities that give economical consequences. Measures of utility availability and area availability are int
The sequence of 15.7 kb from the human semenogelin gene locus has been determined. Together with previously published sequences, this gives the structure of a 28-kb region encompassing the two semenogelin genes. The two transcription units are separated by 11616 bp intergenic DNA comprising more than 40% repetitive DNA sequences, predominantly located to a 4-kb block of L1 and Alu repeats. Two mor
The International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI) is an agreement establishing a common standard for the reporting of information about aid and development funding. Signatories include nations, intergovernmental organizations (IGOs), nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), civil society organizations (CSOs) and private foundations, which together account for approximately 80 per cent of all inter
When does technological change lead to inclusive prosperity? Research suggests that shared benefits from technological progress require concurrent expansions in education and support from pro-labor institutions. We contribute to the debate by studying electricity adoption in Sweden during the first decades of the 20th century. Exploiting that proximity to hydro-power plants shaped the electricity
Three methods were developed for preparing alginate gels containing cells that are stable in phosphate containing media. In Method I preformed alginate beads containing entrapped cells were treated with polyethyl eneimine followed by glutaraldehyde. In Method II alginate sol was treated with a carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide (to form active esters), mixed with cells and extruded into calcium
This chapter presents and discusses the main findings and conclusions of the volume and puts them into a broader perspective. Taken together, the different chapters contribute to closing the gap between historical studies based on parish records and contemporary research based on full-count registers or detailed surveys. The volume thereby fleshes out the narrative of twentieth-century demographic
