Production Of Standard-Grade Ferromanganese In An Electric Arc Furnace, John P. Hager

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The original purpose of this thesis was to determine the feasibility of producing standard-grade ferromanganese from the Cuban concentrates using an electric arc furnace. This purpose was later changed since it became necessary to study the adequacy of a laboratory electric arc furnace for comparability with commercial operations.

Since the original purpose of the investigation had been changed while the area of investigation had not, the research work was then continued with the purpose of collecting information on ferromanganese production as a background for anticipated future work in pyrochemical research at the Montana School of Mines.

An Engineering Soil Survey Of Fayette County, Kentucky, Robert C. Deen

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The need for soils data in the site selection, design, construction and maintenance of any major structure is generally appreciated by the engineer. The "rule of thumb" methods often used in developing smaller structures can prove unsatisfactory, or even disastrous, when applied to larger projects.

Performance Parameters Of Low-Density Ammonium Nitrate Base Explosives; Experimental Results And J. Taylor's Method, Mohammad Azhari Warga-Dalem

Masters Theses

"Ammonium nitrate has been known to the explosive industry for a long time. Compelled by the ever increasing mining costs, in 1954 "Akremite" was introduced to the market. It is a simple carbonaceous ammonium nitrate mixture and is the cheapest explosive available to the open-pit operators.

During the following years considerable amount of research was done, resulting among others with the introduction of ammonium nitrate-hydrocarbon mixtures as an explosive. During the Second World War research was done toward the refinement of the hydrodynamic theory. Several methods of calculating the detonation velocities of the explosives were introduced: Brown (1942), Kistiakowski and …

ABOUT THE TEST REPORT AND USE OF THE DATA The test data contained in this report are a tabulation of the results of a series of tests. Due to the restricted format of these pages, only a limited amount of data and not all of the tractor specifications are included. The full OECD report contains usually about 30 pages of data and specifications. The test data were obtained for each tractor under similar conditions and therefore, provide a means of comparison of performance based on a limited set of reported data. EXPLANATION OF THE TEST PROCEDURES Purpose The purpose of …

Performance Characteristics Of A Tubular Regenerative Heat Exchanger, Harry J. Sauer Jr.

Masters Theses

"The term regenerator is widely used to define any type of heat exchanger in which the heat is alternately stored and removed...The present investigation is concerned with the calculation of the characteristics of the "single-blow", tubular regenerative heater, its dimensions and performance. In the analysis in this thesis, the heat is considered to be stored in bundles of tubes initially preheated by hot gases flowing through the heater and subsequently cooled by the flow of air. This paper makes no attempt to deal with the effects of radiation from the outer row of tubes to the heater shell"--Introduction, page 1-3.

Reconstruction Of A Model L Podbielniak Fractional Distillation Apparatus, Raymond Bauer

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this thesis was to reconstruct a Model L Podbielniak Fractional Distillation Apparatus to provide equipment suitable for the study of batch multicomponent distillation. The apparatus will also serve as an analytical instrument. The equipment was instrumented to automatically control the distillation, but an operator is needed to select fractions and insure the proper functioning of the controls.

Samples of hydrocarbon mixtures of known composition were analyzed to prove the successful operation of the reconstructed apparatus"--Introduction, pages 2-3.

A Statistical Approach To The Zonation Of A Petroleum Reservoir, Leroy Allan Beghtol

Masters Theses

"The problem of dividing a reservoir into distinct permeability zones, in order to predict fluid flow and thereby the production history of the field, has long troubled the petroleum engineer. As a solution to this problem a new statistical method for zoning a reservoir was developed, using a modification of the analysis of variance technique. The application of the statistical zonation procedure to permeability data obtained from eight closely spaced wells substantiated the validity and effectiveness of the new method in determining distinct permeability zones"--Abstract, page iii.

Structural Analysis By Minimum Strain Energy Methods, John B. Heagler

Professional Degree Theses

"Analysis of structure has its conception for the engineer early in his formal education and follows a set sequency from solving for equilibrium in simple beams and free bodies to more complicated solutions for stresses and deflections in multiply redundant structures.

Difficulty arises for the engineer when he loses the sequence of the subject and finds himself memorizing formulas and methods of solution without a clear and concise understanding of the underlying fundamental principles involved in arriving at these formulae and methods of solution.

The Aircraft Structural Analyst finds himself in a relatively new field of engineering structural design. Here …
