  • A Concurrent PASCAL Compiler for Minicomputers
    512 Appendix A DIFFERENCES BETWEEN UCSD'S PASCAL AND STANDARD PASCAL The PASCAL language used in this book contains most of the features described by K. Jensen and N. Wirth in PASCAL User Manual and Report, Springer Verlag, 1975. We refer to the PASCAL defined by Jensen and Wirth as "Standard" PASCAL, because of its widespread acceptance even though no international standard for the language has yet been established. The PASCAL used in this book has been implemented at University of California San Diego (UCSD) in a complete software system for use on a variety of small stand-alone microcomputers. This will be referred to as "UCSD PASCAL", which differs from the standard by a small number of omissions, a very small number of alterations, and several extensions. This appendix provides a very brief summary Of these differences. Only the PASCAL constructs used within this book will be mentioned herein. Documents are available from the author's group at UCSD describing UCSD PASCAL in detail. 1. CASE Statements Jensen & Wirth state that if there is no label equal to the value of the case statement selector, then the result of the case statement is undefined. UCSD PASCAL treats this situation by leaving the case statement normally with no action being taken. 2. Comments In UCSD PASCAL, a comment appears between the delimiting symbols "(*" and "*)". If the opening delimiter is followed immediately by a dollar sign, as in "(*$", then the remainder of the comment is treated as a directive to the compiler. The only compiler directive mentioned in this book is (*$G+*), which tells the compiler to allow the use of GOTO statements.

  • Application Note to the Field Pumping Non-Newtonian Fluids with Liquiflo Gear Pumps
    Pumping Non-Newtonian Fluids Application Note to the Field with Liquiflo Gear Pumps Application Note Number: 0104-2 Date: April 10, 2001; Revised Jan. 2016 Newtonian vs. non-Newtonian Fluids: Fluids fall into one of two categories: Newtonian or non-Newtonian. A Newtonian fluid has a constant viscosity at a particular temperature and pressure and is independent of shear rate. A non-Newtonian fluid has viscosity that varies with shear rate. The apparent viscosity is a measure of the resistance to flow of a non-Newtonian fluid at a given temperature, pressure and shear rate. Newton’s Law states that shear stress () is equal the dynamic viscosity () multiplied by the shear rate (): = . A fluid which obeys this relationship, where is constant, is called a Newtonian fluid. Therefore, for a Newtonian fluid, shear stress is directly proportional to shear rate. If however, varies as a function of shear rate, the fluid is non-Newtonian. In the SI system, the unit of shear stress is pascals (Pa = N/m2), the unit of shear rate is hertz or reciprocal seconds (Hz = 1/s), and the unit of dynamic viscosity is pascal-seconds (Pa-s). In the cgs system, the unit of shear stress is dynes per square centimeter (dyn/cm2), the unit of shear rate is again hertz or reciprocal seconds, and the unit of dynamic viscosity is poises (P = dyn-s-cm-2). To convert the viscosity units from one system to another, the following relationship is used: 1 cP = 1 mPa-s. Pump shaft speed is normally measured in RPM (rev/min).

(2014), WikiCiências, 5(09):0811 Autor: Daniel Ribeiro Editor: Eduardo Lage Henry Cavendish (1731 – 1810) foi um físico e químico que investigou isoladamente de acordo com a tradição de Sir Isaac Newton. Cavendish entrou no seminário em 1742 e frequentou a Universidade de Cambridge (1749 – 1753) sem se graduar em nenhum curso. Mesmo antes de ter herdado uma fortuna, a maior parte das suas despesas eram gastas em montagem experimental e livros. Em 1760, foi eleito Fellow da Royal Society e, em 1803, um dos dezoito associados estrangeiros do Institut de France. Entre outras investigações e descobertas de Cavendish, a maior ocorreu em 1781, quando compreendeu que a água é uma substância composta por hidrogénio e oxigénio, uma reformulação da opinião de há milénios de que a água é um elemento químico básico. O químico inglês John Warltire (1725/6 – 1810) realizou uma Figura 1 Henry Cavendish (1731 – 1810). experiência em que explodiu uma mistura de ar e hidrogénio, descobrindo que a massa dos gases residuais era menor do que a da mistura original. Ele atribuiu a perda de massa ao calor emitido na reação. Cavendish concluiu que algum erro substancial estava envolvido visto que não acreditava que, dentro da teoria do calórico, o calor tivesse massa suficiente, à escala em análise.

  • The Decibel Scale R.C
    The Decibel Scale R.C. Maher Fall 2014 It is often convenient to compare two quantities in an audio system using a proportionality ratio. For example, if a linear amplifier produces 2 volts (V) output amplitude when its input amplitude is 100 millivolts (mV), the voltage gain is expressed as the ratio of output/input: 2V/100mV = 20. As long as the two quantities being compared have the same units--volts in this case--the proportionality ratio is dimensionless. If the proportionality ratios of interest end up being very large or very small, such as 2x105 and 2.5x10-4, manipulating and interpreting the results can become rather unwieldy. In this situation it can be helpful to compress the numerical range by taking the logarithm of the ratio. It is customary to use a base-10 logarithm for this purpose. For example, 5 log10(2x10 ) = 5 + log10(2) = 5.301 and -4 log10(2.5x10 ) = -4 + log10(2.5) = -3.602 If the quantities in the proportionality ratio both have the units of power (e.g., 2 watts), or intensity (watts/m ), then the base-10 logarithm log10(power1/power0) is expressed with the unit bel (symbol: B), in honor of Alexander Graham Bell (1847 -1922). The decibel is a unit representing one tenth (deci-) of a bel. Therefore, a figure reported in decibels is ten times the value reported in bels. The expression for a proportionality ratio expressed in decibel units (symbol dB) is: 10 푝표푤푒푟1 10 Common Usage 푑퐵 ≡ ∙ 푙표푔 �푝표푤푒푟0� The power dissipated in a resistance R ohms can be expressed as V2/R, where V is the voltage across the resistor.

  • S.I. and Cgs Units
    Some Notes on SI vs. cgs Units by Jason Harlow Last updated Feb. 8, 2011 by Jason Harlow. Introduction Within “The Metric System”, there are actually two separate self-consistent systems. One is the Systme International or SI system, which uses Metres, Kilograms and Seconds for length, mass and time. For this reason it is sometimes called the MKS system. The other system uses centimetres, grams and seconds for length, mass and time. It is most often called the cgs system, and sometimes it is called the Gaussian system or the electrostatic system. Each system has its own set of derived units for force, energy, electric current, etc. Surprisingly, there are important differences in the basic equations of electrodynamics depending on which system you are using! Important textbooks such as Classical Electrodynamics 3e by J.D. Jackson ©1998 by Wiley and Classical Electrodynamics 2e by Hans C. Ohanian ©2006 by Jones & Bartlett use the cgs system in all their presentation and derivations of basic electric and magnetic equations. I think many theorists prefer this system because the equations look “cleaner”. Introduction to Electrodynamics 3e by David J. Griffiths ©1999 by Benjamin Cummings uses the SI system. Here are some examples of units you may encounter, the relevant facts about them, and how they relate to the SI and cgs systems: Force The SI unit for force comes from Newton’s 2nd law, F = ma, and is the Newton or N. 1 N = 1 kg·m/s2. The cgs unit for force comes from the same equation and is called the dyne, or dyn.

  • Basic Vacuum Theory
    MIDWEST TUNGSTEN Tips SERVICE BASIC VACUUM THEORY Published, now and again by MIDWEST TUNGSTEN SERVICE Vacuum means “emptiness” in Latin. It is defi ned as a space from which all air and other gases have been removed. This is an ideal condition. The perfect vacuum does not exist so far as we know. Even in the depths of outer space there is roughly one particle (atom or molecule) per cubic centimeter of space. Vacuum can be used in many different ways. It can be used as a force to hold things in place - suction cups. It can be used to move things, as vacuum cleaners, drinking straws, and siphons do. At one time, part of the train system of England was run using vacuum technology. The term “vacuum” is also used to describe pressures that are subatmospheric. These subatmospheric pressures range over 19 orders of magnitude. Vacuum Ranges Ultra high vacuum Very high High Medium Low _________________________|_________|_____________|__________________|____________ _ 10-16 10-14 10-12 10-10 10-8 10-6 10-4 10-3 10-2 10-1 1 10 102 103 (pressure in torr) There is air pressure, or atmospheric pressure, all around and within us. We use a barometer to measure this pressure. Torricelli built the fi rst mercury barometer in 1644. He chose the pressure exerted by one millimeter of mercury at 0ºC in the tube of the barometer to be his unit of measure. For many years millimeters of mercury (mmHg) have been used as a standard unit of pressure. One millimeter of mercury is known as one Torr in honor of Torricelli.
