Embedding multidimensional grids into optimal hypercubes
Let and be graphs, with , and a one to one map of their vertices. Let , where is the distance
between vertices and of . Now let = , over all such maps .
The parameter is a generalization of the classic and well studied
"bandwidth" of , defined as , where is the path on
points and . Let
be the -dimensional grid graph with integer values through in
the 'th coordinate. In this paper, we study in the case when and is the hypercube
of dimension , the hypercube of
smallest dimension having at least as many points as . Our main result is
that

improves on the previous best upper bound . Our methods include
an application of Knuth's result on two-way rounding and of the existence of
spanning regular cyclic caterpillars in the hypercube.Comment: 47 pages, 8 figure
High pressure flame system for pollution studies with results for methane-air diffusion flames
A high pressure flame system was designed and constructed for studying nitrogen oxide formation in fuel air combustion. Its advantages and limitations were demonstrated by tests with a confined laminar methane air diffusion flame over the pressure range from 1 to 50 atm. The methane issued from a 3.06 mm diameter port concentrically into a stream of air contained within a 20.5 mm diameter chimney. As the combustion pressure is increased, the flame changes in shape from wide and convex to slender and concave, and there is a marked increase in the amount of luminous carbon. The height of the flame changes only moderately with pressure
Pollutant emissions from flat-flame burners at high pressures
Maximum flame temperatures and pollutant emission measurements for NOx, CO, and UHC (unburned hydrocarbons) are reported for premixed methane air flat flames at constant total mass flow rate over the pressure range from 1.9 to 30 atm and for equivalence ratios from 0.84 to 1.12. For any given pressure, maxima typically occur in both the temperature and NOx emissions curves slightly to the lean side of stoichiometric conditions. The UHC emissions show minima at roughly the same equivalence ratios. The CO emissions, however, increase continually with increasing equivalence ratio. Flame temperature and NOx emissions decrease with increasing pressure, while the opposite is true for the CO and UHC emissions. The NOx data correlate reasonably well as a function of flame temperature only. Four flameholders, differing only slightly, were used. In general, the temperature and emissions data from these four flameholders are similar, but some differences also exist. These differences appear to be related to minor variations in the condition of the flameholder surfaces

Two transducer formula for more precise determination of ultrasonic phase velocity from standing wave measurements
A two transducer correction formula valid for both solid and liquid specimens is presented. Using computer simulations of velocity measurements, the accuracy and range of validity of the results are discussed and are compared with previous approximations
