Abstract:
This paper reports an experimental investigation on the effects of interfin spacing, shroud clearance, and missing pin on the heat transfer from cylindrical pin fins arranged in staggered and in-line arrays. The interfin spacing in the span wise direction was so small that the pins were almost touching each other. It was found that the optimum interfin spacing in both spanwise and streamwise directions is 2.5 D regardless of both type of array and shroud clearance used. The effect of missing pin for various interfin spacing arrays was found to be negligible for the in-line array but more signi

The effect of introducing tip clearance to a liquid cooled array of shrouded pins fins is examined. Three arrays of height to diameter ratio ranging from 0.5 to 1.1 were evaluated experimentally. The arrays were exposed to a uniform heat flux of 0.02 to 0.26 W/mm2 and cooled with water through a nominal Reynolds number range of 200 to 10,000. Tip clearance of 0 to 25% of pin height was assessed. Mean heat transfer rates and adiabatic pressure drop across the array were determined and empirical correlations are proposed. The introduction of clearance was seen to increase overall heat transfer i

The role of specific zona pellucida (ZP) glycoproteins in gamete interaction has not yet been elucidated in many species. A recently developed 3D model based on magnetic sepharose beads (B) conjugated to recombinant ZP glycoproteins (BZP) and cumulus cells (CBZP) allows the study of isolated ZP proteins in gamete recognition studies. The objective of this work was to study the role of porcine ZP2, ZP3 and ZP4 proteins in sperm binding, cumulus cell adhesion and acrosome reaction triggering. ZP protein-bound beads were incubated with fresh ejaculated boar spermatozoa and isolated cumulus cells

SUMMARYThe mainstream forestry policy in many European countries is to convert coniferous plantations into (semi-natural) deciduous woodlands. However, woodlands are the main habitat forIxodes ricinusticks. Therefore, assessing to what extent tick abundance and infection withBorreliaspirochetes are affected by forest composition and structure is a prerequisite for effective prevention of Lyme borreliosis. We selected a total of 25 pine and oak stands, both with and without an abundant shrub layer, in northern Belgium and estimated tick abundance between April and October 2008–2010. Additionall

Abstract:
Shrub layer diversity is an essential component of the forest ecosystem diversity, that contributes significantly to structuring the community and maintaining diversity, especially in plantation forests. In previous studies, researchers have reported the strong relationship among various factors (i.e., soil composition, mean annual temperature, etc.) and shrub diversity. However, how these factors jointly influence shrub diversity and which factors could be considered the key factors is still unknown. In this study, we attempted to quantify the effect among environmental factors, soil factors

Deposition of tree and tall shrub pollen was examined along a 5.5-km transect in mixed boreal forest in west-central Manitoba, Canada. Annual pollen deposition averaged ca. 6850 grains/cm2 in 1992, with jack pine contributing 67.3% and spruce 24.5% of the total. In general, flowering plant species released their pollen in early to late May, while conifer (spruce and pine) pollen release occurred in early to mid-June. Pollen deposition was poorly correlated with relative species abundance in the community, with some species (e.g., jack pine) being over-represented in the pollen rain and others
