Experimental Study of Onset of Nucleate Boiling in Vertical Rectangular Channels with Different Flow Path Heights by Ning Cheng, Shuwen Yu, Jun Xiao, Chang-Hong Peng

“…The results also indicate that although the bubble size and behaviors in the narrow channel are different from that in the nonnarrow channel at the ONB site, the heat transfer has not been influenced evidently. In addition, ΔTONB in both channels can be predicted by the correlation proposed by Thom within the error range of ±30%.…”

Responses of Ammonia-Oxidising Bacterial Communities to Nitrogen, Lime, and Plant Species in Upland Grassland Soil by Deirdre C. Rooney, Nabla M. Kennedy, Deirdre B. Gleeson, Nicholas J. W. Clipson

“…AOB community structure was largely altered by NH4NO3 addition, rather than liming, although interactions between nitrogen addition and plant species were also evident. Results indicate that nitrogen addition drives shifts in the structure of key microbial communities in upland grassland soils, and that plant species may play a significant role in determining AOB community structure.…”
