Acoustically Forced Heat Transfer from a Tube Bank
Manufacturer: Storming Media ProductGroup: Book Binding: Spiral-bound ASIN: 1423535448 |
Product Description
This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A858083. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: Experimental work was carried out on the steady state heat transfer behavior from a tube bank in a zero mean oscillatory flow. The oscillatory flow across the tube bank was created by an acoustic field inside an isolated resonant chamber. The tube bank was represented by smooth walled cylinders placed parallel to each other, with their plane normal to the direction of fluid oscillation, similar to the arrangement found in many heat exchangers. The spacing between the cylinders was varied to examine the effects of boundary layer interference on the heat transfer behavior. Heat transfer correlations were developed in the form of Nusselt number as a function of the streaming Reynolds number for each tube spacing. This experimental study is relevant to the design of heat exchangers for thermoacoustic engines.

Financial Management "TEST BANK" (Theory and Practice)
Eugene F. Brigham , and Michael C. Ehrhardt Manufacturer: Thompson ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: B000OTGOQQ |
Product Description
The "Test Bank" is designed for use with the Eleventh Edition of "Financial Management: Theory and Practice". At universites where the MBA finance course is taught to large sections, machine-gradable, multiple choice examinations are preferred. The questions must be absolutely unambiguous (or at least very close to unambiguous), because a testing system that students perceive as being even slightly unfair is unacceptable. The test questions should also require an understanding of concepts and relationships, not just a good memory, and that makes the task of test construction much more difficult. We have taught MBA finance during the years we were revising this textbook, and much of our time and that of our assistants went into the preparation of test questions. We are so satisfied with the questions in the "Test Bank" that we would still use objective exams even if we went back to a class size of 30 students.

Tudor Cookery: Recipes and History (Cooking Through the Ages)
Peter C. D. Brears Manufacturer: David Brown Book Company ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 1850748683 |
Book Description
Contains over 50 recipes from the 16th century- all of which can be reproduced in the modern kitchen. The recipes include dishes such as Savoury Tongue Pie; Smothered Rabbit; Mutton in Beer and Sweet Cubes of Jellied Milk. The book also describes the historical background and has information on food, cooking equipment, the serving of meals and the development of taste and etiquette. As well as looking at what people ate in Tudor England, it also looks at the importance of the colonization of the New World on the Elizabethan diet. For the first time rare and exotic vegetables began to arrive - tomatoes from Mexico, kidney beans from Peru and from Chile, the potato. But the most important introduction was sugar from the West Indies, which quickly led to widespread tooth decay amongst the aristocracy - its greatest users. Even Queen Elizabeth had black teeth. The book is fully illustrated with full color photographs and medieval woodcuts.Customer Reviews:

Readable and Helpful.......2004-04-08
I purchased this book because I was using TaxCut Standard, which is not very helpful at times, and I got stuck on a particular form. This book helped me to understand the Individual 1040, using language that is more clear and personable than the official IRS instructions.
Anybody who itemizes deductions, or who might do so in the future, will find _Taxes for Dummies_ extremely helpful. Plus, throughout the book, there are tips for handling personal finances. Most of these are geared toward the higher-income earner, but nearly everyone can learn from the tips about home ownership and retirement savings. The advice is sound.
I strongly recommend this book as an aid for preparing one's own 2003 taxes.

James Madison's "Advice to My Country"
James Madison Manufacturer: University of Virginia Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0813917174 |
Amazon.com
The "Father of the U.S. Constitution" and the fourth U.S. President, James Madison, left behind voluminous writings on government, human rights, and human nature. In this compendium of brief excerpts from his essays (including those of The Federalist) and speeches, Madison's thoughtful nature, humanity, and wit shine through. Designed as a ready reference to Madison's thought, the excerpted writings tend to be brief, but they are not in any way shallow. Indeed, Madison possessed the gift of saying much in succinct and thoughtful prose, and the brevity of some of the selections accentuate their power.Customer Reviews:

Thirty Near-Death Experiences Makes Good Reading.......1999-11-12
Syracuse Herald American, November 7, 1999...
....Young Bill Goss plunged his head into a sink full of water, hoping to get the wethead look of Elvis Presley. His head wedged between two facets as the water poured in. Bill, just 9 years old then, thought for sure he was going to drown.
"My screams dissipated into gurgling noises, since my face was immersed in the water," he recalls. "My head was too big and the basin too small. There was simply no way I could get my hands around my face to to unplug the lifesaving stopper and drain the water. That's when I knew I was going to die."
Goss survived by ripping out two hunks of scalp, denting the facet handles. It was the first of 30 near-death experiences that he says he survived over the next three decades. From mine collapses to plane wrecks, his dances with the grim reaper are recounted in his book, "The Luckiest Unlucky Man Alive."
TAKING ON CANCER. The most threatening of the retired Navy pilot's experiences began five years ago with a small pink cyst-like bump behind his ear. Navy and civilian doctors told him to get his life in order because the cyst was a rare form of malignant melanoma, a quick killer. In a desperate attempt to stay alive, Goss found a doctor who removed his left ear and 200 lymph nodes.
The stitches along the side of his head and down his neck made the dashing naval officer look like he had been put together with spare parts. Reconstructive surgery helped him look normal again, but for a while he had to glue on his silicon ear with rubber cement.
Greg O'Neil, a Cinncinnati businessman and lifelong friend of Goss who was with him on several misadventures, thought the cancer would kill Goss.
"I was devastated. I thought this was it for Bill," said O'Neil, who grew up with Goss in the Millburn, N.J. area.
Goss, 44, has been cancer-free for five years now. "I lucked out," he said. "I learned from those dark days that behind every challenge are great opportunities."
O'Neil doesn't see Goss as being unlucky.
He was always able to pull something positive out of bad circumstances," O'Neil said. "Bill Goss is like 'Forrest Gump' meets 'Terminator II."
BRUSHES WITH DISASTER. Few people, however, would wish to be quite as "lucky" as Goss.
While attending University of Arizon in 1974, he worked weekends at a nearby copper mine. He was rigging blasting caps 5,000 feet underground to clear a chute along a 40 foot hole when he heard the sound of splitting granite. When the dust cleared, he was dangling over the chasm by his safety belt.
In 1985, Goss was in Spain as a Navy pilot of a P-3 Orion, an aircraft used for tracking soviet submarines and drug runners. He was doing test landings when a crew member inadvertently shut down one of the planes four engines.
"Suddenly the aircraft snapped to the left more violently than before," he wrote in his autobiography. "It departed the left side of the runway, twisting off the landing gear and causing the number 3 propeller to touch the ground. That instantly tore the entire 4600 shaft horsepower engine propeller assembly off the aircraft. I remember seeing it out the corner of my eye as it flew over the right wing."
Damage amounted to $3.5 million. No one was injured.
In 1991, Goss stopped his car on Interstate 295 in Jacksonville to remove a box of garbage from the roadway. As he stood in the median, he was struck by a car going about 50 mph. The police report stated he flew 45 feet through the air and he had an out-of-body experience, but he escaped without serious injury.
"It felt great to be dead, still able to think but no longer constrained to my physical being," Goss wrote. "I felt my mind and spirit advance out beyond our stars. In the big picture; I mean the really big picture, time, space, distance, structure, weight, dimension -- these things have no meaning -- only human spirit does."
His cancer forced Goss to retire from the Navy. Now he spends much of his time writing and giving inspirational and motivational talks, billing himself as a "totally unique speaker" on his website: www.luckiestman.com
Bill Goss lives on historic Fleming Island, in Orange Park, southwest of Jacksonville, Florida, with his wife Peggy and their 12-year-old twins, Brian and Christie. He said the kids were his inspiration for writing the book.
"I wanted to leave something behind -- something for my kids to remember me by just in case I didn't make it -- something to let them know who their dad was," he said.
"Bill has been knocked down, but never out, and he would always rise again. The guy I married has nine lives," Peggy said. "My problem was I didn't know what number he was on."
