Burning Velocities of Marginally Flammable Refrigerant-Air Mixtures

April 21, 2016
Author(s)
John Pagliaro, Gregory T. Linteris
Refrigerant working fluids have been predicted to be large contributors to the increase in radiative forcing of the earth. Consequently, existing compounds will soon be phased out. Low-GWP replacements exist, but they tend to be mildly flammable, and there

Estimating and Reducing Uncertainty in Reverberation-Chamber Characterization at Millimeter-Wave Frequencies

April 20, 2016
Author(s)
Damir Senic, Catherine A. Remley, Chih-Ming Wang, Dylan F. Williams, Christopher L. Holloway, Diogo Ribeiro, Ansgar T. Kirk
This contribution provides techniques for accurately characterizing the measurement uncertainty due to chamber setup for total radiated power measurements at millimeter-wave frequencies. The setup is based on the reverberation chamber as a well-known

Flame Retardant Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation

April 20, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Adam P. Blickley, Matthew Schlegel, Angelica Connor
The desire to build more energy efficient homes in the United States has led to the expansion of the residential spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation industry. Upon application of SPF, reacting chemicals form expanding polyurethane foam that fills

Geometric Decompositions of Bell Polytopes with Practical Applications

April 20, 2016
Author(s)
Peter L. Bierhorst
In the well-studied (2,2,2) Bell experiment consisting of two parties, two measurement settings per party, and two possible outcomes per setting, it is known that if the experiment obeys no- signaling constraints, then the set of admissible experimental

Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative 2014/2015 Hydrocarbon Intercalibration Experiment: Description and Results for SRM 2779 Gulf of Mexico Crude Oil and Candidate SRM 2777 Weathered Gulf of Mexico Crude Oil

April 20, 2016
Author(s)
Jacolin A. Murray, Lane C. Sander, Stephen A. Wise, Christopher M. Reddy
Following an open meeting entitled, “Hydrocarbon Chemistry QA/QC,” at the 2014 Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill and Ecosystem Science Conference in Mobile, Alabama, the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) initiated the Hydrocarbon Intercalibration
