Knowledge of the hydraulic boundary conditions is a prerequisite for accurate estimates of the quench characteristics of superconducting magnets. A set of routines (Flower) has been designed and interfaced to the code Gandalf to provide a simplified model ...
Air conditioning unit for vehicle which is compact and economical, while ensuring simplification of the combination of means for controlling the temperature of different elements of the vehicle. The unit comprises a fan which supplies two conduits placed p ...
The third phase of upgrading of the superconductor test facility SULTAN into a split coil system (SULTAN III) is in progress. SULTAN III - a joint project of ENEA (Italy) and PSI (Switzerland) - consists of two coil packages, each containing three concentr ...
A 'standard', single null lower diverted discharge has been developed to enable continuous monitoring of the first wall conditions and to characterise the effectiveness and influence of wall conditioning in the TCV tokamak. Measurements over a period encom ...
Although heat pump based district heating is often an obvious solution, adapting the delivery temperature to the most exigent users is detrimental to overall system performance. This pitfall can be avoided with a centralized plant of heat pumps, cogenerati ...
The substitution of old refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles for heat recovery, request a good knowledge of heat transfer properties of substitute fluids. The test measurmements in LENI test facility (concentric tube ...
Electrically driven motor vehicle, comprising mechanical means for braking the driving wheel and at least one electric motor. System for transfering brake energy into air-conditioning device. Enhances electro brake capabilities, provides controlled dissipa ...
The effect of subcutaneous naloxone administration on the consumption of a weak ethanol solution in rats on the three consecutive days (testing days) was investigated using a behavioral paradigm which includes a first forced ethanol exposure (conditioning ...
Using control theory, apredictive thermal regulation of the "certainty equivalence" type has been developped. Stochastic models of hourly solar rediation and outdoor air temperature, based on the theory of Markov and ARMA processes, were set up for this pu ...
We studied the possible involvement of corticosteroids in the establishment and long-term expression of contextual fear conditioning and questioned whether a corticosteroid action might be dependent upon stimulus intensity at training. Experiments included ...
