Unlike any other book on the market, the 2015 INTERNATIONAL MECHANICAL CODE COMMENTARY is a powerhouse of features: a renowned author team, the entire text and tables from the 2015 International Mechanical Code (IMC), and valuable commentaries that put its technical requirements into a real-world context. Section by section, the book guides readers through the 2015 IMC, presenting clear, detailed explanations that expand on its regulations along the way. These commentaries examine the code�s implications and methods of application, as well as the potential consequences that may arise when not followed. With a focus on the effective design and installation of mechanical systems, coverage includes ventilation, exhaust systems, duct systems, hydronic heating, and more. When it comes to the 2015 IMC, there simply isn�t a better resource and reference guide available, and you won�t to be in the field without it.

This book gathers 12 outstanding contributions that reflect state-of-the-art industrial applications of fluorescence, ranging from the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries to explosives detection, aeronautics, instrumentation development, lighting, photovoltaics, water treatment and much more. In the field of fluorescence, the translation of research into important applications has expanded significantly over the past few decades. The 18th volume in the Springer Series on Fluorescence fills an important gap by focusing on selected industrial applications of fluorescence, described in contributions by both industry-based researchers and academics engaged in collaborations with industrial partners.

A computer program was written for analysis of steam flow and heat transfer in fuel elements consisting of concentric fuel tubes with several annular coolant-flow channels. Performance of both average and hot-channel fuel elements may be evaluated since, for any heat generation rate, either total coolant flow rate or over-all pressure drop may be specified. The heat split from the fueled volume, thermal coupling between coolant channels, and heat loss from the fuel element are considered. Aithough any one run investigates only a single fuel element, any number of parallel fuel elements may be analyzed in successive runs by assuming that the pressure drop across the core is equal to the pressure drop across the nominal fuel element. Although written for inlet saturated steam at 6l5 psia, the program can be easily modified for use at any inlet condition. The program may be used on any 8K core IBM 704 computer. No tapes or drums are required. Typical running time for a problem composed of three flow channels, two fueled volumes, and four heat transfer surfaces, is approximately 2.5 min.
