Mortality from ship emissions: A Global assessment
(American Chemical Society, 2007-11)Epidemiological studies consistently link ambient concentrations of particulate matter (PM) to negative health impacts, including asthma, heart attacks, hospital admissions, and premature mortality. We model ambient PM ... -
Instabilities in an R-11 thermosiphon loop with applications in microelectronic chip cooling
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1989-12)A literature review on the recent applications and developments of thermosiphon loop is conducted. In particular, systems suitable for cooling of microelectronic chips are reviewed in greater detail. The advantages of ... -
Asymptotic effectiveness – NTU formulas for multipass plate heat exchangers
(Journal of heat transfer - ASME, 1989)The effectiveness of a plate heat exchanger with finite number of plates is affected by the end channels, and the channels between two adjacent passes. these effects become less significant as the number of plates becomes ... -
A Mechanistic model for flow boiling heat transfer
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1990-11)A mechanistic model is presented for heat transfer in the wet wall region of saturated flow boiling inside circular tubes. Saturated flow boiling is postulated to be essentially -similar to partial subcooled boiling with ... -
Flow boiling maps for water, R-22 and R-134a in the saturated region
(International heat transfer conference, 1990-08)The development of a flow boiling map applicable to different fluids was reported by Kandlikar (1989). In the present paper, specific maps are presented for water, R-22 and R-134a in the saturated boiling region to serve ... -
A Model for flow boiling heat transfer in augmented tubes and compact evaporators
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1990-11)The additive model of the convective and the nucleate boiling components employed in the Kandlikar correlation (1990a) for flow boiling in smooth tubes is extended to augmented tubes and compact evaporators. Two augmentation ... -
Correlating heat transfer data in binary systems
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1991)A correlating scheme is presented to predict the heat transfer coefficient during flow boiling of mixture refrigerants in circular tubes. It is developed by modifying the Kandlikar (1990a) correlation for pure components ... -
Bubble behavior and departure bubble diameter of bubbles generated over nucleating cavities in flow boiling
(Engineering Foundation Conference, 1992-03)This paper presents the results of an experimental study of bubbles nucleating over cavities on a localized heater surface under a flow of subcooled water at low bubble frequencies. The experimental apparatus consists ... -
A photographic study of nucleation characteristics of cavities in flow boiling
(Taylor & Francis, 1995)In the present investigation, the effects of wall superheat and flow velocity on the nucleation characteristics of cavities of different radii have been experimentally determined for flow boiling of subcooled water near ... -
Investigation of bubble departure mechanism in subcooled flow boiling of water using high-speed photography
(Taylor & Francis, 1995)The bubble growth rates under flow boiling conditions are obtained experimentally for subcooled flow of water in a rectangular channel 3 mm x 50 mm wide and over a 10 mm diameter heater surface in the bulk temperature ... -
Use of high-temperature and high humidity to test the adhesion of sputtered copper to a polyimide surface-modified by an AC Nitrogen Glow-Discharge
(Brill (VSP): Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 1995)We have used an extreme environmental stress test to study the adhesion of a thin sputtered copper film (0.5 mu m) to flexible polyimide (PI) substrates between 25 and 125 mu m thick. The polyimide types include Kapton ... -
A large, uniform sample of X-ray emitting AGN: selection approach and an initial catalog from the ROSAT All-Sky and Sloan Digital Sky Surveys
(American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2003-11)Many open questions in X-ray astronomy are limited by the relatively small number of objects in uniform optically-identified and observed samples, especially when rare subclasses are considered, or when subsets are ... -
Ultracompact AM CVn Binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: three candidates plus the first confirmed Eclipsing System
(American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2005-11)AM CVn systems are a rare (about a dozen previously known) class of cataclysmic variables, arguably encompassing the shortest orbital periods (down to about 10 minutes) of any known binaries. Both binary components are ... -
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Monitor Telescope Pipeline
(Wiley InterScience: Astronomische Nachrichten, 2006-11)The photometric calibration of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is a multi-step process which involves data from three different telescopes: the 1.0-m telescope at the US Naval Observatory (USNO), Flagstaff Station, ... -
A large, uniform sample of X-ray emitting AGN from the ROSAT All-Sky and Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: the Data Release 5 Sample
(American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2003-11)We describe further results of a program aimed to yield ∼104 fully characterized optical identifications of ROSAT X-ray sources. Our program employs X-ray data from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS), and both optical imaging ... -
Exploring the variable sky with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
(American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2007-12)We quantify the variability of faint unresolved optical sources using a catalog based on multiple SDSS imaging observations. The catalog covers SDSS Stripe 82, which lies along the celestial equator in the Southern ... -

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey: technical summary
(American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2008-01)The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) has embarked on a multi-year project to identify and measure light curves for intermediate-redshift (0.05 < z < 0.35) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) using repeated five-band (ugriz) ...
