Flotation
... Mechanism of Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) • Solid particles in liquid suspension become attached to microscopic air bubbles. • Waste flow or a portion of clarified effluent is pressurized to 3.4 – 4.8 atm in the presence of sufficient air to approach saturation. • When pressurized air-liquid mixtu ...

... We noticed that FLY-THROUGHs tended to occur with very small or very large polygons. We suggest two possible explanations for the small polygon FLY-THROUGHs. Edge detection and / or the downwind extension may simply over-extend the CWAP for storms that are small enough that the pilot can see the ful ...

Thermodynamics of a Tire Pump - Physics Department, Princeton
... Although a tire pump is a “simple” device, making a satisfactory, simple thermodynamic model of its behavior is challenging. Suppose the tire has volume V that remains constant as its (absolute) pressure is increased by the tire pump from P0 ≥ PA , where PA = atmospheric pressure, to a final pressure ...

Atmospheric convection
Atmospheric convection is the result of a parcel-environment instability, or temperature difference, layer in the atmosphere. Different lapse rates within dry and moist air lead to instability. Mixing of air during the day which expands the height of the planetary boundary layer leads to increased winds, cumulus cloud development, and decreased surface dew points. Moist convection leads to thunderstorm development, which is often responsible for severe weather throughout the world. Special threats from thunderstorms include hail, downbursts, and tornadoes.
