Indoor Environmental Quality assessment of mixed-mode ventilation with ceiling fans in the tropics by Lei Yue, Peng Yuzhen, Chong Adrian

“…Five operating modes have been tested: fully air-conditioned (AC) mode using VAV alone, hybrid air conditioned (AC+PV) mode using VAV and PV desks, concurrent ventilation (CV) mode using PV desks with the windows partially opened, natural ventilation (NV) mode with the windows fully opened, and acoustic natural ventilation (Acoustic NV) mode with the windows partially opened. 57 subjects were invited to the experiment and asked to complete a comprehensive IEQ survey under 16 different indoor conditions, which are combinations of these operating modes and air speeds ranging from 0.10 to 1.15 m/s. …”

Microstructural Investigations of Novel High Temperature Alloys Based on NiAl-(Cr,Mo) by Camelia Gombola, Alexander Kauffmann, Golnar Geramifard, Malte Blankenburg, Martin Heilmaier

“…Compositions with at least 10.3 at.% Cr have lamellar morphology while the first tendency to fiber formation was found at 9.6 at.% Cr. There is a compositional range, where both lamellae and fibers are present in the microstructure and a further decrease in Cr to 1.8at.% Cr results in fully fibrous morphology. …”
