Do you know silica, the tetrahedra of silicon and oxygen constituting the crystals of New Agers and the desiccant in a box of new shoes? It's no mere mundane mineral. As chemically reacting silicate rocks, silica set off the chain of events known as the origin of life. As biomineralized opal, it is the cell wall, skeleton, spicules, and scales of organisms ornamenting numerous lobes of the tree of life. Cryptocrystalline silica made into stone tools helped drive the evolution of our hands and our capability for complex grammar, music, and mathematics. As quartz crystals, silica is impressively electric and ubiquitous in modern technology (think sonar, radios, telephones, ultrasound, and cheap but precise watches). Silica is inescapable when we take a drink or mow the lawn and it has already started to save the Earth from the carbon dioxide we're spewing into the atmosphere. This book tells these scientific tales and more, to give dear, modest silica its due.
This all new edition is a totally updated cruising guide covering the entire Pacific coast of Mexico from The US Border, down the Baja Peninsula, around up into the Sea of Cortez all the way north to San Felipe, across to Puerto Penasco and south to Puerto Madero/Chiapas. There are 61 additional charts with extensive coverage of the Sea of Cortez, including Topolobampo and Altata on the mainland coast. The charts have valuable information on entrances, dinghy landings, marinas, dangers, ferry routes, anchorages, shore attractions and amenities, and GPS waypoints, to name a few. The introduction and appendices cover everything from entrance requirements, to sun protection, bug screens, radio frequencies, Spanish vocabulary, what to have onboard, fishing, how to deal with pets in paradise, and much more. And don't forget the QR codes, which are linked to videos, websites, marinas, city maps, and even whale watching information!
Design and Operation of heat Exchangers and Their Networks presents a comprehensive and detailed analysis on the thermal design methods for the most common types of heat exchangers, with a focus on their networks, simulation procedures for their operations, and measurement of their thermal performances. The book addresses the fundamental theories and principles of heat transfer performance of heat exchangers and their applications and then applies them to the use of modern computing technology. Topics discussed include cell methods for condensers and evaporators, dispersion models for heat exchangers, experimental methods for the evaluation of heat exchanger performance, and thermal calculation algorithms for multi-stream heat exchangers and heat exchanger networks. - Includes MATLAB codes to illustrate how the technologies and methods discussed can be easily applied and developed - Analyses a range of different models, applications, and case studies in order to reveal more advanced solutions for industrial applications - Maintains a strong focus on the fundamental theories and principles of the heat transfer performance of heat exchangers and their applications for complex flow arrangement
The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.
