Thermochemical properties of small open-shell systems: experimental and high-levelab initioresults for NH2and
2006
The first adiabatic ionization energy and the first singlet–triplet splitting of the amidogen radical (NH2) have been determined by high-level ab initio quantum chemistry based on the coupled-cluster approach (90 041 and 10 319 cm−1, respectively) and by high-resolution pulsed-field-ionization zero-kinetic-energy (PFI-ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy (90 083.8 ± 1.0 and 10 222.0 ± 1.3 cm−1, respectively). A comparison between the theoretical and experimental values demonstrates the predictive powers of high-level ab initio theory in the derivation of the thermochemical properties of small molecular systems. The absolute accuracy of better than 100 cm−1 alleviates the experimental search for…
A semi-empirical multipurpose steady-state model of a fuel cell for household appliances
2013
In this paper, a multipurpose model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell for household appliances is proposed. According to a conventional mathematical approach, the proposed model is derived from the physical and electro-chemical equations that rule the fuel cell behaviour. Differently from existing models, a parametric analysis is carried out and a few tunable parameters are accurately selected and identified. Furthermore, this paper proposes an innovative technique of unique model architecture which enables the designer to solve by himself the trade-off between complexity and accuracy on the basis of the specific applications. Three different choices could be performed by the designer…
Ein kalorimeter für hochenergetische elektronenstrahlen
1968
Abstract Construction details and experimental data are given for a total absorption calorimeter used for electron beams of several hundred MeV and for beam power up to 15 kW. In order to obtain high precision, precautions were taken to obtain very high heat insulation, specially by using a temperature controlled radiation shield. The heat loss of the 700 kg copper block corresponds to less than 10 −3 °C/h. Due to design calculations and confirmed by preliminary comparison tests with other beam monitors we consider the absolute accuracy to be 1% or probably better.
A high-precision Ferrite-induction beam-current monitoring system
1975
Abstract The construction and performance of a Ferrite-induction current monitoring system for charged-particle beams with pulse lengths less than 3 μs and pulse repetition rates up to 1 kHz is described. An absolute accuracy of better than 0.2% has been achieved for average currents between 0.01 and 30 μA and a pulse repetition rate of 100 Hz. Particular emphasis has been placed on a detailed analysis of the design parameters, which limit the ultimate accuracy of the current monitoring system.
Feasibility of Coulomb blockade thermometry in metrology
2000
Abstract Coulomb blockade thermometer (CBT) is a simple, magnetic-field-independent primary thermometer for everyday use at cryogenic temperatures. Its properties are well understood by now. The absolute accuracy at present is about ±0.5%. Recently, we have started studying the possibility of using CBT in metrological applications. We have especially in mind the future extension of the international temperature scale below 0.65 K, which is the lower end of ITS-90. Experiments with arrays containing more than 100 tunnel junctions in series are in progress in order to decrease the effects of electromagnetic environment and of co-tunnelling even below the present level.
One and two dimensional tunnel junction arrays in weak Coulomb blockade regime-absolute accuracy in thermometry
1999
We have investigated one and two dimensional (1D and 2D) arrays of tunnel junctions in partial Coulomb blockade regime. The absolute accuracy of the Coulomb blockade thermometer is influenced by the external impedance of the array, which is not the same in the different topologies of 1D and 2D arrays. We demonstrate, both by experiment and by theoretical calculations in simple geometries, that the 1D structures are better in this respect. Yet in both 1D and 2D, the influence of the environment can be made arbitrarily small by making the array sufficiently large.
