    Recovery on non-ferrous metallic values from metallurgical wastes

    Get PDF
    WITH the increased tempo of industrial expansion and ever-increasing consumption of common nonferrous metals like Al, Cu, Pb, Zn, Sri in India, conservation, substitution and reclamation from waste products and substandard raw materials are of paramount importance for the country, not only to tide over the present crisis but also in the larger interests of economic growth and self-sufficiency. Self-sufficiency can be attained by developing processes for the utilization of low grade and complex ores,recovery of metals from waste products, like slags, ashes, drosses, apart from conservation of the non-ferrous metals not available in the country, by their judicious use and also by substitution wherever possible

    Energy-Conserving Lattice Boltzmann Thermal Model in Two Dimensions

    Get PDF
    A discrete velocity model is presented for lattice Boltzmann thermal fluid dynamics. This model is implemented and tested in two dimensions with a finite difference scheme. Comparison with analytical solutions shows an excellent agreement even for wide temperature differences. An alternative approximate approach is then presented for traditional lattice transport schemes

    An Euler Solver Based on Locally Adaptive Discrete Velocities

    Full text link
    A new discrete-velocity model is presented to solve the three-dimensional Euler equations. The velocities in the model are of an adaptive nature---both the origin of the discrete-velocity space and the magnitudes of the discrete-velocities are dependent on the local flow--- and are used in a finite volume context. The numerical implementation of the model follows the near-equilibrium flow method of Nadiga and Pullin [1] and results in a scheme which is second order in space (in the smooth regions and between first and second order at discontinuities) and second order in time. (The three-dimensional code is included.) For one choice of the scaling between the magnitude of the discrete-velocities and the local internal energy of the flow, the method reduces to a flux-splitting scheme based on characteristics. As a preliminary exercise, the result of the Sod shock-tube simulation is compared to the exact solution.Comment: 17 pages including 2 figures and CMFortran code listing.

    Use of CR 39 Films for Evaluation of Shielding Efficacy of Materials against Fast Neutrons

    Get PDF
    CR-39 films have been used for evaluation of neutron shielding of metal alloys, different types of rubbers, sand polymers, etc. These films have been chosen because of their ability to record fast neutrons from 200 keV-10 MeV and their insensitivity to gamma radiations. Tenth value layer (TVL) for the materials studied varies from 10.5 to 28.6 cm. In addition, the values of TVL have also been computed for standard material, such as Al, steel, etc. Using neutron removal cross-section data, the results have been compared with those of experimentally determined values. The results seem to be in agreement within approximate 10 per cent variation

    The first joint ESGAR/ ESPR consensus statement on the technical performance of cross-sectional small bowel and colonic imaging

    Get PDF
    Objectives: To develop guidelines describing a standardised approach to patient preparation and acquisition protocols for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound (US) of the small bowel and colon, with an emphasis on imaging inflammatory bowel disease. Methods: An expert consensus committee of 13 members from the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR) and European Society of Paediatric Radiology (ESPR) undertook a six-stage modified Delphi process, including a detailed literature review, to create a series of consensus statements concerning patient preparation, imaging hardware and image acquisition protocols. Results: One hundred and fifty-seven statements were scored for agreement by the panel of which 129 statements (82 %) achieved immediate consensus with a further 19 (12 %) achieving consensus after appropriate modification. Nine (6 %) statements were rejected as consensus could not be reached. Conclusions: These expert consensus recommendations can be used to help guide cross-sectional radiological practice for imaging the small bowel and colon. Key points: • Cross-sectional imaging is increasingly used to evaluate the bowel • Image quality is paramount to achieving high diagnostic accuracy • Guidelines concerning patient preparation and image acquisition protocols are provided
