Recent studies by Weston and Stack had indicated that a turbine aerator could be added to an oxidation pond to increase the rate of oxygen transfer.

The oxygen uptake rate in the mixed liquor averaged 0.8 mg/l/hr during the first four months of this study.

A series of eight special tests were conducted at different rotor speeds to determine the oxygen transfer rate.

The maximum rate of oxygen transfer at 1.0 mg/l dissolved oxygen was calculated as 220 lb/day at a maximum rate of 9.3 Aj.

The polyethylene cover reduced the oxygen transfer rate by 10 per cent, indicating that the maximum oxygen transfer is at the rotor rather than through the surface.

The lungs in amphibians are primitive compared to those of amniotes, possessing few internal septa and large alveoli and consequently having a comparatively slow diffusion rate for oxygen entering the blood.

To enable sufficient cutaneous respiration, the surface of their highly vascularized skin must remain moist in order to allow the oxygen to diffuse at a sufficiently high rate.

Antioxidant activity could be measured simply by placing the fat in a closed container with oxygen and measuring the rate of oxygen consumption.

Vital signs in medicine are temperature ( rectal is most accurate ), blood pressure, heart rate ( pulse ), respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation.

When in contact with one of the electrodes in a fuel cell, this platinum increases the rate of oxygen reduction to water, either to hydroxide or hydrogen peroxide.

Cetaceans also obey Kleiber's law, which states that mass and metabolic rate are inversely related, i. e., larger animals consume less oxygen than smaller animals per unit mass.

The higher the water content of a soil, the lower the oxygen content and consequently, the lower the rate of decomposition.

Experimentally, oxygen diffusion becomes rate limiting ( and lethal ) when arterial oxygen partial pressure falls to 40 mmHg ( 5. 3 kPa ) or below.

Monatomic oxygen is electrically neutral and although it does recombine during the channeling, it does so at a slower rate than the positively or negatively charged free radicals, which attract one another.

Moreover, in an ESPN segment from 2005, researchers from Indiana State University placed devices on Drum Corps members that recorded metabolic rates during performances and practices, utilizing measurements of oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and heart rate.

A respirometer is a device used to measure the rate of respiration of a living organism by measuring its rate of exchange of oxygen and / or carbon dioxide.

As implemented on the VIC-20 and Commodore 64, CBM DOS could transfer only about 300 bytes per second-compare the 300 baud data rate of the Commodore cassette storage system-which translated to about 20 minutes to copy one disk — 10 minutes of reading time, and 10 minutes of writing time.

The temperature of the steam is easier to control than the surface of a heating element, and allows a high rate of heat transfer without heating at a very high temperature.

As with the basic equation of heat transfer, indicates that the rate of force is directly proportional to the driving force, which is the concentration gradient.

Compared to single data rate ( SDR ) SDRAM, the DDR SDRAM interface makes higher transfer rates possible by more strict control of the timing of the electrical data and clock signals.

With data being transferred 64 bits at a time, DDR SDRAM gives a transfer rate of ( memory bus clock rate ) × 2 ( for dual rate ) × 64 ( number of bits transferred ) / 8 ( number of bits / byte ).

Thus, with a bus frequency of 100 MHz, DDR SDRAM gives a maximum transfer rate of 1600 MB / s.

The transfer rate is 1 Ghana Cedi for every 10, 000 Cedis.

* one kilobaud is a rate of transfer used primarily in telecommunications

PIP with a very low baud rate ( because it had no built-in error correction ) could be used to transfer a small simple version of Kermit from one machine to another over a null modem cable, or failing that, a very very simple version of the Kermit protocol could be hand coded in binary in less than 2K using DDT, the CP / M Dynamic Debugging Tool.

This horizontal gene transfer, coupled with a high mutation rate and many other means of genetic variation, allows microorganisms to swiftly evolve ( via natural selection ) to survive in new environments and respond to environmental stresses.

The momentum density is proportional to the Poynting vector which gives the directional rate of energy transfer per unit area:

While thermodynamic equilibrium determines the theoretical extent of a given mass transfer operation, the actual rate of mass transfer will depend on additional factors including the flow patterns within the system and the diffusivities of the species in each phase.

This rate can be quantified through the calculation and application of mass transfer coefficients for an overall process.

The combination of a high mutation rate and a horizontal gene transfer ability makes them highly adaptable, and able to survive in new environments, including outer space.

Energy transfer can be used to do work, so power is also the rate at which this work is performed.

Not tonight, at any rate.

This desire, I went on, growing voluble as my conviction was aroused, had mounted at such a rate recently that I now found its realization necessary not only to my physical but also to my spiritual wellbeing.

That, at any rate, is what happens at the Khaju bridge.

at any rate, heat grew so intense in the main part of the house that it melted the window panes, and fused the K'ang-si pottery to cinders.

It is scheduled to go forward at a rate which will steadily add to our strength.

`` They straggle at such a rate '', he told the commander-in-chief, `` that if the enemy were enterprising, they might get two from us, when we would take one of them, which makes me wish General Howe would go on, lest any incident happen to us ''.

Certainly all can applaud passage of an auto title law, the school bills, the increase in teacher pensions, the ban on drag racing, acceptance by the state of responsibility for maintenance of state roads in municipalities at the same rate as outside city limits, repeal of the college age limit law and the road maintenance bond issue.

Mr. Richard Preston, executive director of the New Hampshire State Planning and Development Commission, in his remarks to the Governors Conference on Industrial Development at Providence on October 8, 1960, warned against the fallacy of attempting to attract industry solely to reduce the tax rate or to underwrite municipal services such as schools when he said: `` If this is the fundamental reason for a community's interest or if this is the basic approach, success if any will be difficult to obtain ''.

R. H. S. Crossman, M.P., writing in The Manchester Guardian, states that departures from West Berlin are now running at the rate not of 700, but of 1,700 a week, and applications to leave have risen to 1,900 a week.

Business loans generally are repayable in regular installments -- usually monthly, including interest at the rate of 5-1/2 percent per annum on the unpaid balance -- and have a maximum maturity of 10 years ; ;

The forced sale of the General Motors stock owned by or allocable to Christiana, Delaware, and the stockholders of Delaware, and deposited with the trustee, would result in a tax to those parties at the capital gains rate.

The cost of developing a major weapon system is now so enormous that the greatest care must be exercised in selecting new systems for development, in determining the most satisfactory rate of development, and in deciding the proper time at which either to place a system into production or to abandon it.

The deposit of rupees to the account of the Government of the United States of America in payment for the commodities and for ocean transportation costs financed by the Government of the United States of America ( except excess costs resulting from the requirement that United States flag vessels be used ) shall be made at the rate of exchange for United States dollars generally applicable to import transactions ( excluding imports granted a preferential rate ) in effect on the dates of dollar disbursement by United States banks, or by the Government of the United States of America, as provided in the purchase authorizations.

Interest at the rate of 6% a year must be paid on taxes that are not paid on or before their due date.

In spite of the fact that our largest market, the textile industry, was affected substantially by the current decline in business activity, we have been able to produce and deliver our machines throughout the year 1960 at a rate materially higher than during 1959.

I look for TV sales and production to be approximately equal at 5.7 million sets for the year, but I look for some decline in radios from the high rate in 1961 to more nearly the 1959 level of 15.0 - 15.5 million sets.

The market for computers and other data-handling continues to expand at the rate of about 30% annually, reaching some $450 million in 1960.

The best results will be obtained by matching the correct speed with a steady feed pressure that lets the tool cut easily at an even rate.
