Influence of Particulate Matter and Carbon Dioxide on Students’ Emotions in a Smart Classroom
The effects of air quality on health and cognition are well documented, but few studies have focused on its impact on emotions, leaving this area underexplored.

Carbon dioxide as the working fluid in heating and/or cooling systems [PDF]
Despite vigorous research the use of carbon dioxide in the market is still relatively small. This is due to legislation, and technical difficulties of developing efficient, acceptable carbon dioxide ...

Surface Tension Measurement of Ti‐6Al‐4V by Falling Droplet Method in Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere
In this article, the temperature‐dependent surface tension of free falling, oscillating Ti‐6Al‐4V droplets is investigated in both argon and monosilane doped, oxygen‐free atmosphere. Droplet temperature and oscillation are captured with one single high‐speed camera, and the surface tension is calculated with Rayleigh's formula.

An overview of current Navy programs to develop thrust augmenting ejectors [PDF]
The primary objective of Navy sponsored research in thrust augmentation is the development of an improved augmenter for V/STOL application. In support of this goal, a data base is being established to provide an accurate prediction capability for use in ...

Cermets (60 vol.% AISI 316L stainless steel, 40 vol.% recycled MgO), intended for use in aluminum electrolysis, were pre‐oxidized in three furnaces with different heating technologies and subjected to a cryolite corrosion test. The different atmospheres influenced the formation of oxide layers, which in turn affected corrosion resistance and ...

Time‐Dependent Oxidation and Scale Evolution of a Wrought Co/Ni‐Based Superalloy
This study shows how a new wrought Co/Ni‐based superalloy resists oxidation at 800 ∘$^\circ$C. The oxide scale changes from rough, fast‐growing spinel to a dense, protective chromia–alumina layer. Atom probe analysis reveals tiny refractory‐rich bubbles at the interface that mark the transition to long‐term, diffusion‐controlled protection ...

Transient Simulation of Secondary Loop Mobile Air Conditioning Systems
Since the conventional refrigerant R-134a is being phased down due to its high GWP, finding a suitable replacement refrigerant with low GWP and a system design is of great importance. However, most of the alternatives are either flammable or more expensive. Therefore, to ensure the safety of passenger and reduce the refrigerant charge, a secondary loop

Energy saving potential in the New Zealand agricultural sector with emphasis on the vegetable greenhouse industry : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Natural Resource Management at Massey University [PDF]
In the last decade, the energy demand of New Zealand's horticultural and agricultural sub sectors has increased as a result of land use conversion, intensity of production, the use of irrigation and an increase in energy intensive horticulture, such as ...

Secondary aerosol formation from atmospheric reactions of aliphatic amines [PDF]
Although aliphatic amines have been detected in both urban and rural atmospheric aerosols, little is known about the chemistry leading to particle formation or the potential aerosol yields from reactions of gas-phase amines.
