    Abstract : In this research new RF/microwave-based sensor solutions were developed for the monitoring of biological cells and human beings to obtain a better understanding of their activity or state in a quick, cheap, easy and continuous way. The effect of different substances on cell behaviour can be monitored by measuring the electrical environment where changes are observed as cells react to a stimulus. READ MORE

  5. 13. Clothing Evaporative Resistance: Its Measurements and Application in Prediction of Heat Strain

    Author : Faming Wang; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal manikin; clothing ensemble; evaporative resistance; localised evaporative resistance; thermophysiological response; heat stress; heat strain; the Predicted Heat Strain PHS model;

    Abstract : Clothing evaporative resistance is one of the most important inputs for both the modelling and for standards dealing with thermal comfort and heat stress. It might be determined on guarded hotplates, on sweating manikins or even on human subjects. READ MORE

  6. 14. Studies on skin blood flow and evaporative water loss : a bioengineering approach

    Author : Lena Nilsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Skin blood flow (SBF), temperature, evaporative water loss (EWL) and skin conductance (SC) measured during stimulus-response experiments reveal valuable information regarding the skin's regulatory capacity. SBF and EWL play powerful roles in keeping the human body within an adequate temperature range. READ MORE

  7. 15. Char conversion kinetics and aerosol characterization in biomass gasification

    Author : Leteng Lin; Michael Strand; Alberto Gómez-Barea; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biomass gasification; fluidized bed; char; kinetics; aerosol; APS; TEOM; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology;

    Abstract : Biomass gasification is a thermochemical conversion by partial oxidation at elevated temperature of solid biomass into a gaseous energy carrier. The product gas contains the major components CO, H2, CO2, CH4, as well as some tar and inorganic impurities and solid particles such as ash, bed material, soot and char. READ MORE
