Microtron for Smog Particles Photo Ionization [PDF]
The article discusses a possibility of removing smog particles from a boiler smoke. To do this, the boiler smoke is passed through a flow of gamma radiation, formed by interaction of the microtron beam with a heavy target. The energy of the microtron electrons twenty five megaelectronvolts, the beam current one hundred microamperes.

A Computer Model for Comparison of Flat Plate and Focusing Collectors for Solar Air Conditioning [PDF]
Two types of solar collecting systems are frequently employed--flat plate collectors with spectrally selective windows which trap sunlight with the greenhouse effect and focusing systems with curved mirrors which concentrate the sun\u27s rays on an ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Corona Discharge Induced Flow on a Flat Plate [PDF]
Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow induced by planar corona discharge in the wall boundary layer region is investigated experimentally and via a multiphysics computational model. The EHD phenomena has many potential engineering applications, its optimization requires a mechanistic understanding of the ion and flow transport.

VO 2 -based radiative thermal transistor in the static regime [PDF]
We study a near-field radiative thermal transistor analogous to an electronic one made of a VO 2 base placed between two silica semi-infinite plates playing the roles of the transistor collector and emitter. The fact that VO 2 exhibits an insulator to metal transition is exploited to modulate and/or amplify heat fluxes between the emitter and the ...
