In this study, the influence of various air inlet angles on the heat transfer and flow friction characteristics of a 2-row plain finned oval tube heat exchanger is analyzed by experimental and numerical methods. The experimental results show that an air inlet angle 45° provides the best heat transfer performance, and an air inlet angle 90° provides the smallest pressure drop, while an air inlet an

The ALICE collaboration performed the first rapidity-differential measurement of coherent J/ψ photoproduction in ultra-peripheral Pb–Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy sNN=5.02 TeV. The J/ψ is detected via its dimuon decay in the forward rapidity region (−4.0

During nine months, nineteen hairdressers every second/third month switched the use between a blow dryer with traditional design and one with a new design. The new blow dryer had the possibility to change between two opposite directed air flows. Every second/third month arm inclination angle and upper trapezius muscle activity were measured a whole workday, and during blow-drying in the laboratory

Sewers that constitute the main part of wastewater systems can be used as pretreatment units of wastewater treatment plants. The authors aim to increase the treatment efficiency of sewers by optimization. A hydraulic model is written and validated. A quality calculation section is added to the model according to the Wastewater Aerobic/Anaerobic Transformations in Sewers (WATS) method, and it is ca

Global warming is driving environmental change in the Arctic. However, our current understanding of this change varies strongly among different environmental disciplines and is limited by the number and distribution of field sampling locations. Here, we use a quantitative framework based on multivariate statistical modeling to present the current state of sampling across environmental disciplines

I Sverige lär sig de flesta barn cykla innan de börjar skolan och det tas mer eller mindre för givet att alla vuxna kan cykla. Men långt ifrån alla kan. År 2016 startade Cykelfrämjandet projektet ”Frihet på cykel” då intresset av att lära sig cykla och behovet av cykelkurser ökade allt mer. I artikeln, som bygger på ett fältarbete vid cykelkurser för vuxna i Malmö och Stockholm och intervjuer med

Forest ecosystems, covering over a third of land on the Earth, play a significant role in the global hydrological cycle, and influence soil erosion and climate change. However, the distribution, movements, quality of water, and hydrological processes in forested ecosystems are not well understood yet.

Ett hållbart och acceptabelt pensionssystem måste utformas utifrån personliga förutsättningar och förhållanden i arbetslivet, så att fler klarar att arbeta i högre ålder. Att enbart genom ekonomiska åtgärder höja pensionsåldern är inte långsiktigt hållbart, skriver 54 forskare.DEBATT | PENSIONForskning visar att cirka var fjärde har en diagnos eller skada orsakad av sitt arbete. Detta gör arbetsor
