Heat Transfer Coefficients Of Non-Newtonian Slurries In Laminar Flow, Robert Frederick Roth, David B. Swanson

Theses

A total of 51 heat transfer runs were made in the first 25 runs, slurries of half micron and finer kaolin at 3.0, 5.6, 9.6 and 12.9% solids were used. Slurries of two microns and finer kaolin at 10.1, 13.7, 20.4 and 23.1% solids were used in the remaining 26 runs.

The Reynolds Numbers ranged from 0.9 to 2,020 for the 51 runs.

The data was correlated by the following equation:

H_f/C_bV_bP_b C_bR_b/K_b ^2/3 = 0.70 DV_bP_b/R_b ^-2/3

for an L/D ratio of …

The Effect Of Velocity On The Electrical Conductivity Of Blood, Judea Pearl

Theses

Although the change in the conductance of blood resulting from changes in its velocity has been noted by several investigators working with electrical impedance techniques, this parameter of measurement has heretofore not been investigated from the viewpoint of practical application to blood flow measurement.

In certain regions of the body such as the tooth pulp and the cranial cavity, the volume of the contained blood cannot fluctuate during a cardiac cycle because of the rigid wall of the chamber. Therefore, impedance pulses which have been obtained in studies on the tooth pulp, must be attributed to the rhythmical fluctuation of …

Thermodynamic Properties Of Formaldehyde, Raymond H. Koo

Theses

The thermodynamic properties of saturated and superheated formaldehyde were evaluated at ten degree temperature intervals from -19°C. to 400°C. and at various pressures up to 150 atmospheres.

Lydersen's correlations were used to estimate the critical constants.

Vapor pressure data were calculated using Riedel's method.

The generalized thermodynamic correlations of Hougen, Lydersen,'and Greenkorn were employed to obtain values of the thermodynamic properties in the saturated and superheated regions.

The values for temperature, pressure, specific volume, enthalpy, and entropy for saturated and super-heated formaldehyde are presented in the form of tables and graphs.

Effect Of Cleaning Methods Upon Electrochemical Behavior Of High-Carbon Steel Cathodes In A Chromic Acid Electrolyte, George Chaplenko

Theses

The quality of electrodeposited coatings is to a great ex- tent determined by cleaning or surface-conditioning methods employed in preparing the basis metal for plating. Cleaning pro- cedures are usually established empirically, by trial and error. Little or no experimental work was devoted to a quantitative stu- dy of measurable parameters that are influenced by the relative effectiveness of individual cleaning processes. The present ex- periment was designed in an attempt to establish a correlation between one such parameter (namely, the single-electrode poten- tial of polarized cathode) and the quality of subsequent plating.

High-carbon steel cathodes, -a material that is …

An Investigation Into Halftone Density Variation With Pre-Screened Graphic Emulsions, Robert Chaffee

Theses

Information relating to the variation that can be expected in utilizing Graphic Arts emulsions has been of some interest in the past several years. A test was formulated utilizing a Pre-screened graphic emulsion and was conducted each day for a period of two weeks. Test results indicate that the density level is of definate significance. The variability that can be expected at higher levels of density is outside the relm of desired conformance.

Concepts Of Form And Content In Painting, Reuben Aldridge Hale Jr.

Theses

This thesis is presented in conjunction with an exhibition of non-objective paintings. The exhibition, held in the Allen Gallery from July 15 to August 4, 1961, was a selection of paintings from those produced during graduate study at Southern Illinois University. It is the purpose of this thesis to illuminate, in some respects, the paintings of the artist.
To gain insight into the totality of the work of any particular artist, it is helpful to look into the influences and concepts behind the paintings. In the case of autonomous painting, the conscious ideas of an artist cannot completely explain the …

Ceramic Murals, Candeger Furtun

Theses

In my Thesis I propose to study the Ceramic Murals at its beginning and at the present Age. Since it is a very wide and long topic to be handled by one person within a limited time, I shall confine myself to the first attempts of Mankind in the making of Murals in clay in Prehistoric times, in Mesopotamia and murals that are done very recently , mainly in the United States.
