Conceptual design study for the HCRF direct contact heat exchanger modification
The conceptual design of sieve trays for modifying the HCRF direct contact heat exchanger was developed as follows. The models of the prior work, EG&G subcontract No. K-7752, were extended and modified so the predicted heat transfer coincided with the experimental data of the 60 KW Raft River tests conducted by EG&G. Using these models, a hole diameter of 0.25 inches and a hole velocity of 1.3 ft/sec or greater was selected to accomplish the required heat transfer while minimizing mass transferred to the geothermal fluid. Using the above information, a conceptual design for a sieve tray column was developed. It was determined that the column should operate as a working fluid filled, working fluid dispersed column. This is accomplished by level control of the geothermal fluid below the bottom tray. The dimensions and configuration of the trays and downcomers, and the number of holes and their diameters is summarized in Wahl Company drawings 84144001 and 84144003 submitted with this report. The performance of this design is expected to be 12,000 lbs/hr of geothermal fluid for single component fluids and 11,800 to 12,000 lbs/hr for mixed fluids at a working fluid flow rate of 71% of the geothermal fluid flow rate. The flow rate limit of the geothermal fluid will vary from 9800 to 13,000 lbs/hr as the ratio varies from 83% to 62%
Changes in erosion and flooding risk due to long-term and cyclic oceanographic trends
We assess temporal variations in waves and sea level, which are driving factors for beach erosion and coastal flooding in the northern Gulf of Mexico. We find that long-term trends in the relevant variables have caused an increase of ~30% in the erosion/flooding risk since the 1980s. Changes in the wave climate—which have often been ignored in earlier assessments—were at least as important as sea level rise (SLR). In the next decades, SLR will likely become the dominating driver and may in combination with ongoing changes in the wave climate (and depending on the emission scenario) escalate the erosion/flooding risk by up to 300% over the next 30 years. We also find significant changes in the seasonal cycles of sea level and significant wave height, which have in combination caused a considerable increase of the erosion/flooding risk in summer and decrease in winter relative to long-term trends

Preparation of magnetic tips for spin-polarized STM on Fe1+yTe
PW acknowledges funding by Max-Planck-Society and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.The interplay of electronic nematic modulations, magnetic order, superconductivity and structural distortions in strongly correlated electron materials calls for methods which allow characterizing them simultaneously - to allow establishing directly the relationship between these different phenomena. Spin-polarized STM enables studying both, electronic excitations as well as magnetic structure in the same measurement at the atomic scale. Here we demonstrate preparation of magnetic tips, both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic, on single crystals of FeTe. This opens up preparation of spin-polarized tips without the need for sophisticated ultra-high vacuum preparation.Peer reviewe
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
