Effects of broadened property fuels on radiant heat flux to gas turbine combustor liners [PDF]

The effects of fuel type, inlet air pressure, inlet air temperature, and fuel/air ratio on the combustor radiation were investigated. Combustor liner radiant heat flux measurements were made in the spectral region between 0.14 and 6.5 microns at three ...

A more‐than‐human political ecology of Indonesian songbird trade

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Since its inception, conservation science has considered wildlife trade a problem. In focusing on conservation outcomes, conservationists almost completely ignore the welfare of traded animals and plants and the harms they endure. We developed a political ecology approach that incorporates the interconnectedness of people with animals and ...

Different characteristics of char and soot in the atmosphere and their ratio as an indicator for source identification in Xi'an, China [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2010
Numerous definitions and analytical techniques for elemental (or black) carbon (EC) have been published in the scientific literature, but still no generally accepted interdisciplinary definition exists. EC is not a single chemical compound, but is mainly

Sustainable dyeing of silk with curled dock (Rumex crispus) extract for trace element removal, ultraviolet protection, antimicrobial and anti‐oxidant activity

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the dyeability and functionality of silk dyed with curled dock leaf extract. The effects of sugar content and turbidity in the extracted dye solution on dyeing were analysed, along with K/S values and colour fastness, under varying temperatures and times.

Stratospheric aerosol modification by supersonic transport operations with climate implications [PDF]

The potential effects on stratospheric aerosois of supersonic transport emissions of sulfur dioxide gas and submicron size soot granules are estimated. An interactive particle-gas model of the stratospheric aerosol is used to compute particle changes due

The effect of seawater hardness on cotton fabric dyeing using reactive blue dye

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Oceans are an abundant source of water; their economic potential has not yet been fully exploited. In this context, the current study aims to apply seawater in the dyeing of cotton fabrics, evaluating the influence that total hardness has on the process results.

Laboratory measurements in a turbulent, swirling flow [PDF]

Measurements of soot inside a flame-tube burner using a special water-flushed probe are discussed. The soot is measured at a series of points at each burner, and upon occasion gaseous constitutents NO, CO, hydrocarbons, etc., were also measured.

Social Drivers of Vocal Flexibility in Female Baboons

Ethology, EarlyView.
Female olive baboons selectively grunt when encountering females with dependent offspring. Grunting likelihood depends on rank differences and the strength of their social bond. This study adds to the evidence that nonhuman primates have evolved to use structurally‐inflexible vocalisations in population and context‐flexible ways.

Carbon deposition model for oxygen-hydrocarbon combustion. Task 6: Data analysis and formulation of an empirical model [PDF]

The formation and deposition of carbon (soot) was studied in the Carbon Deposition Model for Oxygen-Hydrocarbon Combustion Program. An empirical, 1-D model for predicting soot formation and deposition in LO2/hydrocarbon gas generators/preburners was ...

‘This Is Not Europe’: Investigating the Commission's Anti‐Populist Articulation of ‘European Values’

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Whilst ‘populism’ is often considered antithetical to ‘European values’, how this contrast shapes the very meaning of such ‘values’ remains underexplored. This article investigates the European Commission's anti‐populist articulation of ‘European values’, which constructs ‘populism’ as their constitutive outside.
