    Many people argue that history makes a special difference to the subjects of biology and psychology, and that history does not make this special difference to other parts of the world. This paper will show that historical properties make no more or less of a difference to biology or psychology than to chemistry, physics, or other sciences. Although historical properties indeed make a certain kind of difference to biology and psychology, this paper will show that historical properties make the same kind of difference to geology, sociology, astronomy, and other sciences. Similarly, many people argue that nonhistorical properties make a special difference to the nonbiological and the nonpsychological world. This paper will show that nonhistorical properties make the same difference to all things in the world when it comes to their causal behavior and that historical properties make the same difference to all things in the world when it comes to their distributions. Although history is special, it is special in the same way to all parts of the worl

    The gas induction characteristics of a stator-rotor-type self-inducing impeller were investigated in the cases without and with gas line resistance. To understand the hydrodynamics near the impeller, and to characterize the mechanism of gas induction, the local liquid velocity was measured with a laser Doppler anemometer. The effect of impeller speed, impeller submergence, and gas line resistance on the volumetric flow rate of liquid, as well as the rate of gas induction, was investigated. The dominant role of local gas holdup was identified and the mechanism of gas induction was established, with the help of an energy balance
