Surface Temperature Measurement Of Metal Undergoing Induction Heating, Ding-Yee Nee Jan 1958

Surface Temperature Measurement Of Metal Undergoing Induction Heating, Ding-Yee Nee

Masters Theses

"It is the object of this thesis to investigate the possibility of using thermoelectric pyrometry for surface temperature measurement of metal undergoing induction heating. The temperature range under investigation, as stated before, is 400 °F to 1250 °F. This research may actually be treated by two sections.

The first section concerns the methods of using thermocouples for ordinary surface temperature measurements. The second section concerns the effect, if any, on thermocouple e.m.f. readings while it is measuring the surface temperature of a metal undergoing induction heating. The first section of the investigation has been well covered by literature and will …


Design Of Distillation Solvent Recovery System, Donald Empson Puyear Jan 1958

Design Of Distillation Solvent Recovery System, Donald Empson Puyear

Masters Theses

"With the advent or the atomic bomb during the summer of 1945 the opportunity for engineering colleges to provide an integrated course of study in the field of nuclear engineering was presented. This opportunity has been greatly enhanced by a policy of the Atomic Energy commission, granting funds to selected institutions for equipment necessary for successful instruction in this field. The Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, realizing the opportunity presented, has established a course of study in nuclear engineering in which the departments of Ceramic, Chemical, Mechanical and Metallurgical Engineering and Physics are taking an active part.

That portion …

A Learning Index For The Midget Wiggly Block Test For Mechanical Ability, James Franklin Winegarden Jan 1958

A Learning Index For The Midget Wiggly Block Test For Mechanical Ability, James Franklin Winegarden

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The writer became interested in testing mechanical ability while taking a course in the 1957 summer session at the Iowa State Teachers College dealing with the problem of teaching industrial arts. The teacher of this course was Dr. Howard O. Reed who had devised the Midget Wiggly Block Test for Mechanical Ability, which will be referred to hereafter in this report as the Midget Wiggly Block Test. During a class presentation, Reed state that there may be a learning process involved in the repeated assembling of the Midget Wiggly Block Test and presented a single formula for computing a score …

Location And Economic Study For Interstate Route Tallahassee, Wilbur Smith And Associates Nov 1957

Location And Economic Study For Interstate Route Tallahassee, Wilbur Smith And Associates

City and Regional Planning -- Florida

The basic purpose of the study was to determine the best location for the construction of an East-West section of the interstate highway. It was prescribed that the work would consist of two basic parts. One had to do with the analysis of travel data, both present and projected, in the determination of the most feasible location of a route based on conventional traffic and highway development factors. The other phase of the work was to deal with economic considerations, especially the economic impact of the proposed routes on businesses located on existing roads and on the central business district …


Ten Rural Highway Base Stabilization Projects, James H. Havens, William B. Drake Aug 1957

Ten Rural Highway Base Stabilization Projects, James H. Havens, William B. Drake

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

During the last week o£ September, 1956, the Division of Rural Highways requested assistance from the Research Division in conducting a series of ten experimental base stabilization projects which were to be geared more-or-less to a practical rural roads development program in which existing soils and local granular materials might be most advantageously treated and stabilized to provide fairly low cost base courses and surfaces, adequate for light rural traffic. The idea of actually constructing a base and bituminous surface for this type of road would represent a refinement over the traditional traffic-bound base type of construction which usually serves …

Activity Coefficients Of Gases In Binary Mixtures, John Robert Armbruster Jun 1957

Activity Coefficients Of Gases In Binary Mixtures, John Robert Armbruster

Theses

The theory of vapor phase activity coefficients for binary mixtures has been developed. The equations, calculation procedures and sample calculations are presented using two recently proposed methods of Joffe. These methods are then compared to the three methods presented by Engleman.

These two methods have been employed to calculate activity coefficients for 236 experimental points. The deviations of calculated values from experimental values were also determined. The systems considered are Argon - Ethylene, hydrogen - Nitrogen, Methane - Ethane, Methane - n - Butane evaluated over wide ranges of pressure, temperature and mol fraction.

From analysis of the time required …


Kinetics Of Chromium-Hydrogen Ion Exchange, Frank Joseph Klosowski, Alfred John Meinhardt Jun 1957

Kinetics Of Chromium-Hydrogen Ion Exchange, Frank Joseph Klosowski, Alfred John Meinhardt

Theses

In this investigation the rates of trivalent-univalent cation exchange in a stirred batch reactor for the chromic ion-Dovex 50 system have been measured. The progress of the reaction has been followed continuously by measuring the change in hydrogen ion concentration of the bulk solution as a function of time with a Beckman pH Meter having external electrodes immersed in the reaction mixture.

This work has been undertaken to determine the rate-controlling mechanism of the reaction, and the influence of agitator speed, particle size, and solution concentration on the rate of exchange. Agitator speed. studied, as limited by the equipment, are …


Measurement Of The Specific Surface Of Perlite, Richard Gordon Lamborn, Carl Henry Vogel Jun 1957

Measurement Of The Specific Surface Of Perlite, Richard Gordon Lamborn, Carl Henry Vogel

Theses

A low temperature gas adsorption apparatus was designed for the purpose of measuring the total surface area of solids using the well known B.E.T. method.

The apparatus was designed so that several different gases could be used as adsorbates without evacuating the gas reservoirs each time a different adsorbate was to be used. This was accomplished by providing three gas reservoirs of sufficient capacity to allow several determinations to be made at moderate initial reservoir pressures of from two to three pounds per square inch. A separate bulb and manometer system was supplied for determining the saturation pressures of adsorbates …


Equilibria In The Esterification Of Boric Acid, Richard William Palizay Jun 1957

Equilibria In The Esterification Of Boric Acid, Richard William Palizay

Theses

A solvent extraction method was developed to determine the equilibria in the esterification of boric acid, In this method boric acid was reacted with various alcohols. After equilibrium was reached, the ester was isolated from the reaction mixture by means of a solvent and the amount of ester determined quantitatively. The equilibrium constants were then calculated for the reaction of boric acid with several alcohols.
