Baseband Agc In An Am-Fm Telemetry System, Richard S. Simpson, William H. Tranter
Baseband Agc In An Am-Fm Telemetry System, Richard S. Simpson, William H. Tranter
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
The use of AGc loops at the input and output of the FM link in an AM-FM telemetry system allows the mean-square transmitter deviation to be maintained near maximum value, even though data may be nonstationary. However, errors result because of the inability of the receiver AGc loop to track perfectly gain variations in the transmitter loop. In this paper the general characteristics of AGc are discussed, and a theoretical analysis is performed to determine the time constant, steady-state error, and tracking error for a first-order loop. Also, tracking error for first order and second-order loops is investigated by simulation. …

Nuclear Radiation Enhancement Of Transistor Forward Gain At High Frequencies, C. A. Goben, Y. P. Han
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
This investigation has characterized the effects of fast neutron bombardment on a typical n-p-n transistor (2N914) of a common emitter amplifier operating at high-frequencies (>100 MHz) by means of s-parameter measurements from 120 MHz to 350 MHz, inclusive, every 10 MHz. The changes in the four (4) s-parameters and the trends and consequences of neutron bombardment are examined pictorially on graphs. The general effect of fast neutron bombardment is to decrease the magnitude of each s-parameter for frequencies below z. fT (where z = (O/1013)0.1). However, if the device is operating above z fT, the magnitudes of s11 (input …

Neutron Dependence Of Neutral Base Region Recombination, J. Bereisa, C. A. Goben
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A discrete, deterministic mathematical model has been developed for the bulk base region of graded base devices that accounts for both the effects of neutron-induced recombination and built-in electric field in the base region at low, intermediate, and moderate current/injection levels. Exact expressions are developed for the bulk base recombination current and the collector current as functions of neutron fluence. Exact expressions are derived for the base recombination term and the relative rates of neutron-induced base current increase and collector current decrease. These expressions involve exponential and hyperbolic functions and are well suited for numerical computations and theoretical analysis. Damage …

An Sem Surface Study Of Nucleate Pool Boiling Heat Transfer To Saturated Liquid Nitrogen Reduced Pressures From 0.1 To 0.9, David Virgil Porchey
Doctoral Dissertations
"This study constituted an examination of both nucleate boiling and maximum heat flux characteristics of liquid nitrogen boiling from characterized surfaces. Several textures of gold plated copper surfaces were studied in addition to silver and silver oxide surfaces. Data were taken over a wide range of reduced pressures. All surfaces were examined using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Data and micrograph comparison revealed that both surface chemistry and surface roughness affect the nucleate boiling characteristics of liquid nitrogen. These effects are separated from each other showing that nucleate boiling is a function of both surface chemistry and topography. Surface roughness …

An Approximate Min-Max Solution To The Identification Problem, Richard Loyd Warren
An Approximate Min-Max Solution To The Identification Problem, Richard Loyd Warren
Masters Theses
"A technique based on the min-max error criterion is proposed for identifying a dynamic system in terms of a discrete-time model from the system response to a deterministic input. A linear, single-input/single-output, lumped-parameter, time-invariant (at least during the measurement interval) system is assumed. Although the resulting problem is non-linear, it is shown that linear programming techniques are applicable if a realistic approximation is made. The technique is implemented on the digital computer and evaluated by considering a number of typical discrete-time systems. The effects of additive noise are also considered"--Abstract, page ii.
The Effect Of Solvents On The Desorption Of Phenol From Carbon, Robert Harold Pahl
The Effect Of Solvents On The Desorption Of Phenol From Carbon, Robert Harold Pahl
Masters Theses
"The desorption of phenol from active carbon was studied using cyclic and continuous flow desorbers. A wide difference in desorption capabilities was shown among nine solvents. The system employed was complex, with water being present in addition to phenol on the carbon. An attempt to correlate the desorption data with the physical properties of the phenol and solvent and Regular Solution theory are presented. A thermodynamic approach using the linear free energy-enthalpy relationship produced an apparently good correlation of the heat of formation of the phenol-solvent hydrogen bond with the desorption data. This indicates that the desorption of the phenol …

A Permeability Scaling Technique In The Numerical Simulation Of Water Coning, Virendra Kumar Dutta
Masters Theses
"A two-dimensional, two-phase, radial, horizontally layered water coning simulator was programmed for large memory digital computers. A permeability sealing technique is developed which allows the use of large size blocks as production blocks. As a result of this technique large time steps have been used without causing saturation instabilities around the well bore and the permeability scaling technique allows a more realistic simulation of a water cone. The IMPES method is used to calculate pressure and saturation in the system for each finite time step. The behaviour of the simulator is studied for various factors affecting the advance of a …

Efficiency And Loss Mechanism Of The Electro-Fluid Dynamic Momentum Transfer Process Applied To Propulsion Systems Using Atmospheric Air As The Working Fluid, Roger Coy Crites
Efficiency And Loss Mechanism Of The Electro-Fluid Dynamic Momentum Transfer Process Applied To Propulsion Systems Using Atmospheric Air As The Working Fluid, Roger Coy Crites
Masters Theses
"The general equations governing EFD (electrofluid dynamic) flow are established, simplified, and solved in closed form to provide a mathematical model of an ideal EFD propulsion system. This mathematical model, in conjunction with an analysis of ion-neutral and neutral-neutral molecular collision phenomena, indicates that the cause of inefficiency in the EFD propulsion system is the system entropy increase associated with the diffusion of ion momentum through the neutral fluid. This loss mechanism is shown to be analogous to resistive heating losses in a constant voltage linear electrical network and can be minimized by obtaining minimum ion mobility. It is shown …

The Anodic Dissolution Of Tungsten, Ching-Lun Wu
The Anodic Dissolution Of Tungsten, Ching-Lun Wu
Masters Theses
"The anodic dissolution of tungsten was studied in H₂SO₄-K₂SO₄ solutions (pH= -2 to 2.5) andK₂SO₄-K₂CO₃-KOH solutions (pH = 11.5 to 14.5) at 25ºC. Faradaic efficiency studies in basic solutions showed that the metal was oxidized to the +6 state. In acid solutions, a thick protective film of yellow WO₃ was formed. Polarization measurements showed linear Tafel behavior (slope ~ 2.3RT/F) in the potential region slightly more positive than the rest potentials. An anodic dissolution mechanism is proposed which involves a surface film of W₂O₅ that is further oxidized to WO₃ and dissolves by hydrolyzation"--Abstract, page 1.

Digital Simulation Of A Signal Conditioner/Bit Synchronizer, Quentin Reed Webb
Digital Simulation Of A Signal Conditioner/Bit Synchronizer, Quentin Reed Webb
Masters Theses
"A bit rate filter type signal conditioner/bit synchronizer used in a split-phase PCM system is modeled digitally in three stages to determine overall system performance. General computer algorithms are developed to approximate independent operation of each major segment within the device. Bit rate effects and signal time-base error are investigated yielding the characteristic G-curves for the phase detector. These characteristics facilitate subsequent analysis of a linear equivalent digital-data-transition tracking phase-locked loop under several typical time-base error input conditions. Using bit error probabilities as performance criteria, the conditioner/synchronizer is found to perform adequately at signal-to-noise ratios exceeding +10dB. For inputs below …
Probe Detection Of Microwave Perturbation In A Magnetoplasma, Show-Ran Peter Wang
Probe Detection Of Microwave Perturbation In A Magnetoplasma, Show-Ran Peter Wang
Masters Theses
"When a microwave signal with a frequency near the electron upper hybrid resonance is applied to a magnetoplasma, it will excite the plasma. The perturbation of plasma can be detected by using Langmuir probes. The particular plasma used in this experiment is an argon discharge type and the density is relatively low (n~10⁸ cm⁻³). The electron temperature is about 7000º K. Because a magnetic field is applied to the plasma, it is necessary to use the probe theory in a magnetic field to calculate the electron number density from the electron temperature. In order to determine the electron upper hybrid …

The Influence Of A Carbon Ablation Layer On Radiation From A Hydrogen Shock Layer, Birbal Singh
Masters Theses
"The effect of ablation heat shields on the radiative heat transfer to vehicles entering hydrogen atmospheres at thermo-dynamic conditions similar to those expected in Jovian atmospheres is investigated. The shock layer is assumed to consist of two plane parallel layers, one consisting of pure hydrogen species, and the other consisting of carbon species only. Each layer is assumed to be in local thermodynamic equilibrium at its respective temperature. The thermodynamic conditions in the hydrogen layer are arrived at by solving the Rankine-Hugoniot Equations across the shock. The temperature of carbon layer is taken as (3000, 5000, and 7000ºK) to cover …
Mutually Dependent Heat And Mass Transfer In Laminar Tube Flow, Gary Alfred Scheffel
Mutually Dependent Heat And Mass Transfer In Laminar Tube Flow, Gary Alfred Scheffel
Masters Theses
"An investigation is performed of the mutually dependent heat and mass transfer in laminar and hydrodynamically fully developed gas flow in a tube. Sublimation of mass occurs at the tube wall so that heat and mass transfer take place between the wall and the flowing gas stream. The wall of the tube is thermally insulated from the external environment with the result that the heat of sublimation is supplied by convective transport from the gas. The solution of this problem requires the simultaneous consideration of the energy and diffusion equations, with coupling provided by the boundary conditions. Mathematical expressions are …
Heat Transfer Through A Spherical Gas Shell, Adel Nassif Saad
Heat Transfer Through A Spherical Gas Shell, Adel Nassif Saad
Masters Theses
"The radiative transfer through an absorbing-emitting gas shell contained within black concentric spheres at uniform but different temperatures was investigated. A close form exact solution and an approximate solution were derived for the case of isothermal gas layer. The two solutions appear to compare well specially at low diameter ratios, and both agree with the radiative equilibrium solution in the thin limit. An approximate method was developed for the radiative equilibrium, non-isothermal gas layer, of the above problem. The method is based on the assumption of a hyperbolic emissive power distribution through the gas shell. The jump boundary conditions were …

Investigation Of The System Al₂O₃-Teo₂-O₂, Vera Zelenkova Sestak
Investigation Of The System Al₂O₃-Teo₂-O₂, Vera Zelenkova Sestak
Masters Theses
"The system Al₂O₃-TeO₂-O₂ has been investigated by X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis in air and in sealed silica ampoules. The tellurate, Al₂TeO₆, with tellurium in the +6 valence state, forms in air but not in vacuum at 1 mm pressure. A second phase, a tellurite, possibly Al₂Te₂O₇, forms in air or vacuum by devitrification. The glass-forming region is wider than previously stated and is more extensive in vacuum--from 50% to 98% TeO₂. Tentative phase boundaries have been placed for the system in air and vacuum"--Abstract, page ii.
