Water Conservation On The Farm, John W. Lewis Jan 1961

Water Conservation On The Farm, John W. Lewis

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

SMALL scale conservation of water for agricultural use is becoming increasingly important throughout Australia.

As land development intensifies, it is natural that farmers turn to more dams and earthen tanks for stock water and irrigation.

Adequate water is essential to supply the carrying capacities made possible by improved pastures, and where greater quantities of water can be stored, fodder crops, pastures, orchards and vegetables can be irrigated.


Automatic Waterers For Day Old Chickens, P Smetana, W. Ward Jan 1961

Automatic Waterers For Day Old Chickens, P Smetana, W. Ward

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

ONE of the most tedious and time consuming tasks on a poultry farm is the provision of water to chicks from day old up to the age of three or four weeks.

Most poultry farmers use half-gallon glass fonts with metal bases for the first few weeks, until the chicks are old enough to use the automatic watering system usually situated along one wall of the brooder house.

This cumbersome glass font system can be replaced by the cheap and easily installed automatic watering system described below. This system has already been adopted by several local poultry farmers.


Temperature Distribution In An Infinite Plate As A Function Of The Input Heat Flux, George Franklin Wright Jan 1961

Temperature Distribution In An Infinite Plate As A Function Of The Input Heat Flux, George Franklin Wright

Masters Theses

"It is the purpose of this thesis to investigate the effects of a variable input heat flux impinging equally on both sides, on the temperature distribution within an infinite plate. An infinite plate may be defined as one in which the dimensions are infinite in two directions and finite in thickness. For practical purposes such a plate could be thought of as one in which the thickness was small enough, compared to the other two dimensions, so that a temperature gradient exists only normal to the surfaces of the plate. This assumption will be made to establish one-dimensional heat flow …


Transpiration Cooling Of A Plane Porous Plate, Raymond George Posgay Jan 1961

Transpiration Cooling Of A Plane Porous Plate, Raymond George Posgay

Masters Theses

"The transient temperatures were determined in a porous plate for one dimensional heat flow and one dimensional counter coolant flow. One surface of the porous plate was heated by a hot gas by convective heat transfer. A general discussion of the problem is considered and the procedure described for working all such problems dealing with transpiration cooling.

The solution of such problems is illustrated by two examples employing a ceramic plate one inch thick and cooled by a uniform flow of air in a direction counter to the flow of heat, while one surface of the ceramic plate was heated …


Transient Temperature Distribution In Solid Sphere Subjected To Radiation Heat Exchange, William H. Stocklin Jan 1961

Transient Temperature Distribution In Solid Sphere Subjected To Radiation Heat Exchange, William H. Stocklin

Masters Theses

"The author believes that numerical analysis is the most feasible approach to calculating the transient temperature distribution in a solid sphere subjected to various surface conditions; heat flow within the sphere is radial.

Numerical analysis is employed to arrive at a series of equations for calculating the transient temperature at selected points of a solid sphere. A study is made to determine a method for calculating temperatures with these equations; a computing device is found to be the most practical method for this purpose. The equations for temperatures at internal points of the solid sphere are general.

The equations have …

Preliminary Study Of An Optimum Vibration Absorber For A Multi-Mass System With Multiple Excitation, John Raymond Burrows Jan 1961

Preliminary Study Of An Optimum Vibration Absorber For A Multi-Mass System With Multiple Excitation, John Raymond Burrows

Masters Theses

"The object of this thesis is to demonstrate, by the use of a modern digital computer, a fast, efficient method to eliminate or minimize undesirable stress conditions in a multimass vibrating system with multiple excitation. The condition desired is obtained by the addition of an optimum tuned and damped dynamic vibration absorber, for one critical speed only.

Maximum stress is the criteria used for design here and not amplitude as has been used previously by all other authors.

This solution requires the applied torque to be reevaluated as an average torque and a number of half integer harmonics. This method …


Transpiration Cooling, Herbert S. Brahinsky Jan 1961

Transpiration Cooling, Herbert S. Brahinsky

Masters Theses

"In the investigation of the problem, it is shown that the process of transpiration cooling is an effective method of cooling. This process may be applied to heat screens or heat shields, as was done in the sample problems worked out here. A porous plate with coolant flowing counter to the flow of heat was used.

The plate temperature is determined by the amount of heat flux, coolant flow, thermal conductivity of the material used as a plate, the specific heat of the fluid, the specific heat of the plate material, the density of the plate material and its porosity. …
