Tests Of The Woolley Valve For The James H. Campbell Plant, Unit No. 3
No full textThe innovative use of fixed screens to reject solids in condenser
cooling water drawn from Lake Michigan has been considered a practical
solution for the lake withdrawal system proposed at the James H. Campbell,
Unit No.3 Of the Consumer Power Company. The withdrawal point, which is
3,500 feet offshore and approximately 30 feet below the lake surface, is
considered relatively free of screen-plugging.solids under normal conditions,
but during winter, frazil ice plugging is possible. To assure continued
operation under these unusual conditions it was considered necessary to
provide the system with an opened water (non-screened) auxiliary intake.
This auxiliary function is to be provided by installing a relief valve at
the outer or stub end of two of the four header pipes which are to constitu.te
the intake system as shown in Fig. 1. These valves are to open and provide
.auxiliary intake water whenever screen plugging resulted in a selected level
of pressure reduction within the header. The selected level proposed for
the valve operation was 12 inches additional headloss. The valve deemed
most appropriate for use was a modified version of a Synchro-chek valve made
by the W. J. Woolley Company of River Forest, Illinois.
The Woolley valve has been marketed for many years as a pump discharge
check valve, but its performance under Wave conditions, including 100 year
storms, at the proposed site were unknown. In order to clarify the valve
.performance it was decided to conduct tests of a 1:4 scale-model valve at
the St. Anthony Falls Hydraulic Laboratory of the University of Minnesota.
The material which follows describes the Woolley valve, the three part test
program (static, steady state flow, and dynamic flow), the test facilities,
the test results, and the conclusions and recommendations resulting from
the tests.Consumer Power Company; Commonwealth Associates

Anthony Grooms, 21st Annual ODU Literary Festival
No full textAnthony Grooms is the author of Ice Poems (Poetry Atlanta Press) and Trouble No More: Stories (LaQuesta Press). Shorter works have appeared in Callaloo, African American Review, and other journals. He has received awards from the City of Atlanta, the State of Georgia, Breadloaf Writers Workshop and the National Endowment for the Arts. In 1996, Trouble No More won the Lillian Smith Award from the Southern Regional Council. Novelist Marita Golden noted that “Grooms writes about the South, civil rights, home folks, black and white people and anything he wants to with more love, humor and finely-honed skill than I have seen in a long time.” The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said, “Groom’s stories take us to the center of the phenomenon (civil rights movement) with an honesty and courage long overdue.” Grooms is an Associate Professor of Creative Writing at Kennesaw State University in Georgia

An introduction to the curvature of surfaces
No full textCurvature is fundamental to the study of differential geometry. It describes different geometrical and topological properties of a surface in R3. Two types of curvature are discussed in this paper: intrinsic and extrinsic. Numerous examples are given which motivate definitions, properties and theorems concerning curvature.M.S.Includes bibliographical references (p. 56)by Philip Anthony Baril
The Influence of Gas Nuclei Size Distribution on Transient Cavitation Near Inception
No full textThis report concerns research on the problem of transient cavitation
on hydrodynamic bodies near inception conditions. A probabilistic
model of the process is presented. The experimental apparatus for providing the bubble size distribution, which is a necessary input to the probabilistic model, is described. An acoustic cavitation occurrence
counting system that can be used to check on the output of the probabilistic model is also described. Experiments conducted on a half body in a 6-inch water tunnel test system achieved fair agreement between the predictions of the probabilistic model and the measurements by the occurrence counting technique in some cases.Naval Ship Research and Development CenterSchiebe, Frank R..

Hormones / Anthony W. Norman, Helen L. Henry.
No full textPrevious edition by Anthony W. Norman and Gerald Litwack. 1997.Includes bibliographical references and index.xv, 413 pages :The 3rd edition of Hormones offers a comprehensive treatment of the hormones of humans all viewed from the context of current theories of their action in the framework of our current understanding their physiological actions as well as their molecular structures, and those of their receptors. This new edition of Hormones is intended to be used by advanced undergraduates and graduate students in the biological sciences. It will also provide useful background information for first year medical students as they engage in studies which are increasingly problem-based rather than discipline-focused. As the field of endocrinology itself has expanded so much in the past two decades, the up to date presentation of the basics presented in this book will be a solid foundation on which more specialized considerations can be based.
New to this Edition: Hormones, 3rd Edition is organized with two introductory chapters followed by 15 chapters on selected topics of the molecular biology of the major endocrine systems operative in humans. Coverage, for the first time of the following hormones; ghrelin, oxyntomodulin, kisspeptin, adrenomedullin, FGF23, erythropoietin, VIP and extended coverage of NO. Coverage of the hypothalamus has been integrated with the anterior pituitary because of the intimate functional and relationship between the two. Consideration of the role of hormones in cancer has been integrated into the chapters on the relevant hormones. Each of these areas occupies a unique niche in our understanding of the biological world and is part of the universality of signaling systems and how they govern biological systems
