The thermal properties of biomass over a range pyrolysis temperatures have been measured using Transient Plane Source (TPS) instrument and differential analyzer (DTA). In this study, property measurements were made on six softwoods: subalpine fir, Douglas Engelmann spruce, loblolly pine, lodgepole ponderosa pine. Results from method show that the average conductivity for these softwoods decreases by almost factor 3, 0.198 to 0.091 W/(m K), as wood goes ambient conditions temperature 453 °C....

AbstractAbstractThere will be a continued requirement for iron and steel products in the world market. However, industry subject to intense commercial pressure from competing products, such as other metals, materials composites, together with economic growth of China, India Russia. This competition felt particularly transport, packaging, construction, domestic appliance heavy engineering industries. A detailed proposal meet these challenges form 15 Mt capacity mega-plant business strategy...

Recent survey work at Melton Constable Hall in Norfolk has revealed the presence of fibrous crystals on walls some rooms. Scrapings loose material taken from these have been subjected to chemical analysis and found consist expected gypsum, together with needle-like biocide pentachlorophenol. The latter was established by two independent instrumental techniques.Pentachlorophenol its derivative sodium pentachlorophenate are compounds that were formerly very widely used as preservatives for...

Graphite is an important component to the design of high-temperature gas-cooled reactors.Many these reactors use graphite as a neutron moderator and/or structural such fuel-and gascoolant channels [1], [2], [3].Graphite desirable material because its low absorption cross-section and strength [4].During operation, properties dimensions can change function irradiation dose temperature.Gradients in both temperature lead significant stress distortion components.Over time stresses distortions, if...
