Rao, Y. K. – Chemical Engineering Education, 1979
Shows that upon incorporating an irreversible step into an otherwise reversible Carnot Cyclic process there results a diminution of thermodynamic efficiency and a simultaneous augmentation of the entropy of the universe. (Author/HM)

Clay, Forrest P., Jr. – American Journal of Physics, 1979
An effective demonstration of the phase relationships in a series RLC circuit, resonance and Q, is made possible by multiplexing four signals onto a single channel, thereby converting a single-channel scope to four channels. (Author/GA)

Whitelaw, Robert L. – 1973
The purpose of the Nuclear Power Plant Modules, NPP-1, is to determine the total cost of electricity from a nuclear power plant in terms of all the components contributing to cost. The plan of analysis is in five parts: (1) general formulation of the cost equation; (2) capital cost and fixed charges thereon; (3) operational cost for labor,…

Edlund, Milton C. – 1971
The nine Reactor Statics Modules are designed to introduce students to the use of numerical methods and digital computers for calculation of neutron flux distributions in space and energy which are needed to calculate criticality, power distribution, and fuel burn-up for both slow neutron and fast neutron fission reactors. The diffusion…
