An energy recovery device for small-scale seawater reverse osmosis desalination by Alfredo S. Bermudez-Contreras

“…The analysis was used in the design and modelling of the energy recovery device. A first prototype was built and subsequently demonstrated in a system desalinating seawater over a wide range of electrical input power stretching between 286 and 1196 W, producing up to 286 L/h of freshwater with specific energy consumptions in the range of 3.5 to 4.5 kWh/m^3. …”

Frost heave in colloidal soils by Stephen Peppin, Apala Majumdar, Robert Style, Graham Sander

“…The theory accounts for heave and consolidation while not requiring a frozen fringe assumption. Two solidification regimes occur: a compaction regime in which the soil consolidates to accommodate the ice lenses, and a heave regime during which liquid is sucked into the consolidated soil from an external reservoir, and the added volume causes the soil to heave. …”

Interaction effects of radiation and convection measured by a thermal manikin wearing protective clothing with different radiant properties by George Havenith, X. Wang, Emiel A. den Hartog, Barbara Griefahn, Ingvar Holmer, Harriet Meinander, Mark Richards

“…Lamps were set at a distance of 1.5metres away from the manikin for high radiation level (±450 W/m2) and 2.0 meters for medium level (±325 W/m2). …”
