The consequences of the inappropriate use of ventilation systems operating in indoor swimming pool conditions - analysis
2018
Increasingly more leisure facilities, such as water parks or indoor swimming pools are being built in Poland nowadays. In order to ensure the air quality required by standards for such leisure facilities it is necessary to fit them with effectively functioning ventilation. For the removal of excess humidity, as well as chlorine ions occurring as a result of the disinfection of water as well as the carbon dioxide emitted by people using the facility, the ventilation system needs to be appropriately designed and efficient. For this reason, studies into the air quality in such facilities were undertaken. The paper presents the causes and consequences of the inappropriate operation and maintena…
Analisi della tendenza climatica dell'evapotraspirazione nel territorio siciliano
2009
Long effective evapotranspiration (E) series was derived from the longest temperature series available in Sicily. The regional trend analysis performed has shown a slight upward trend of E.
Salt exploitation, communication routes and territory during the Iron Age around the Cabriel river valley
2020
La sal era un recurso fundamental en la economía de las sociedades antiguas y cada vez tenemos más datos sobre su aprovechamiento y explotación durante la Edad del Hierro en ámbito peninsular. La comarca de Requena-Utiel, en el interior de la provincia de Valencia, presenta la mayor abundancia de salinas continentales históricas del territorio valenciano. Por otro lado, en La Manchuela conquense se localiza la importante mina de sal de Minglanilla-La Pesquera. El hallazgo de material arqueológico ibérico en algunas de estas explotaciones sirve como punto de partida para analizar sus características y ver cómo pudieron quedar integradas en el patrón de asentamiento, así como en una densa red…
Tube transport of water vapor with condensation and desorption
2013
Attenuation and delay of active tracers in tube transport is an important current problem, but its full explanation is still lacking. To this end a model is introduced, where part of a tracer undergoes condensation and evaporation, treated as a diffusion-type process, in addition to Taylor dispersion. Condensation of water was verified by high-speed imaging, and the model solution fitted the breakthrough curves of laboratory measurements with pulses of water vapor of varying relative humidity. The model provides a transfer function whose performance was verified against field measurements. peerReviewed
Applications and non-idealities of submicron Al–AlOx–Nb tunnel junctions
2016
We have developed a technique to fabricate sub-micron, 0.6µm×0.6µm Al-AlOx-Nb tunnel junctions using a standard e-beam resist, angle evaporation and double oxidation of the tunneling barrier, resulting in high quality niobium, as determined by the the high measured values of the critical temperature TC ∼ 7.5 K and the gap ∆ ∼ 1.3 meV. The devices show great promise for local nanoscale thermometry in the temperature range 1 - 7.5 K. Electrical characterization of the junctions was performed at sub-Kelvin temperatures both with and without an external magnetic field, which was used to suppress superconductivity in Al and thus bring the junction into a normal-metal-insulator-superconductor (NI…
