Free reed instruments have a reed that does not come in direct contact with the player. The reed is a blade of wood, metal, or other man-made material attached at one end only to a frame so that the blade is free to vibrate when activated by a stream of air passing over it. 3, record 1, English, - free%2Dreed%20instrument

The distillation of coal for the production of gas, coke and the tarry materials used for the manufacture of dyes and organic chemicals results in a watery waste known as ammoniacal gas liquor, and the disposal of this is a cause of pollution. Ammoniacal gas liquor contains free ammonia, ammonium salts, cyanide, sulphide, thiocyanate, and a variety of aromatic compounds including pyridine, phenols, cresols and xylenols.... Gas liquor, discharged untreated to a stream, has an extremely high oxygen demand, many times greater than that of sewage. 1, record 2, English, - ammoniacal%20gas%20liquor

Free products and dissolved petroleum components from the surface of the contaminated aquifer are captured and treated via multi-phase extraction & treatment. Bioslurping induces a horizontal vacuum gradient on the targeted monitor/recovery wells through a slurp tube which is inserted into each well. Product and groundwater are entrained in droplet form in a high velocity air stream and brought to the surface for treatment. Following air/liquid separation the liquid phase is treated by a combination of oil/water separation, air stripping, and liquid phase carbon treatment before being discharged. The off-gas is treated(if necessary) by vapour phase carbon treatment. The advantages of multi-phase extraction & treatment include : a high product to groundwater extraction ratio; aeration of the vadose zone which enhances natural biodegradation of the hydrocarbon contaminants; all treatment components may be housed in a turn-key mobile remedial unit; a simple product recovery technology which can be transferred to conventional remedial applications such as pump and treat, sparging and vapour extraction system(VES) applications.

Les fractions pétrolières à l'état libre ou dissoutes à la surface des ormations aquifères contaminées sont capturées et traitées par le système d'extraction et de traitement multiphase. La bioaspiration crée un gradient horizontal d'aspiration centré sur les puits de surveillance/récupération au moyen d'une seringue insérée dans chacun des puits. Les produits pétroliers et l'eau souterraine sont entraînés jusqu'à la surface, sous forme de gouttelettes dans un flux d'air à vitesse élevée, où ils sont traités. Une fois accomplie la séparation air/liquide, la phase liquide est soumise à des traitements séquentiels de séparation pétrole/eau, de stripage à l'air et d'absorption en phase liquide sur du carbone avant le rejet.

Heat transfer coefficients are shown as functions of downstream and transverse plate coordinates as determined experimentally for different blowing ratios near one and for levels of free stream turbulence from 1 percent to 17 percent of the free stream velocity. Heat transfer between the plate and the free stream is reduced by the film cooling at higher levels of free stream turbulence. Heat transfer is increased on the plate in the region between the film cooling jets at all levels of blowing ratio for one percent free stream turbulence. This undesirable augmentation of the heat transfer is modeled analytically and related to the axial vortices generated near the film cooling jet inlets. The strength of these vortices and the subsequent heat transfer increases are related to the blowing ration. 1, record 10, English, - film%20cooling
