Subject field(s)
  • Space Physics
CONT

The method of enhanced microwave scattering is based on the measurement of the signal, which is Back Scattered(BS) in the Upper Hybrid Resonance(UHR) vicinity. At first this technique was applied to small-scale oscillations and waves investigations in quiet plasma of linear laboratory devices. But now this method is introduced for a study of plasma small-scale turbulence and wave propagation in the tokamak plasma.

Subject field(s)
  • Paper Manufacturing Processes
CONT

Other methods of paper drying(besides steam cylinder drying) are used for certain applications.... Microwave or dielectric drying would appear to have application at the dry end of the machine. Free water(as opposed to bound water) preferentially absorbs the microwave energy to provide self-compensating profile correction.... However, this technique has not caught on, perhaps because the economics are not favorable.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fabrication du papier
CONT

On utilise bien d'autres techniques de séchage du papier (en plus du séchage sur cylindres) pour des applications particulières. [...] Le séchage par micro-ondes ou diélectrique s'applique en fin de machine en particulier pour régler les problèmes endémiques de profils irréguliers. L'eau libre (par opposition à l'eau liée) absorbe préférentiellement l'énergie des micro-ondes, ce qui corrige automatiquement le profil [...]
