ionising and non-ionising radiation there are many side effects‚ risks and limitations. In ionising radiation‚ there is a risk of cell mutation which can result in developing cancer if there is overexposure of the radiation to the patient’s. In the worst state this radiation can result in death. This type of radiation is not recommended to the groups of people like children‚ pregnant women or the elderly as it will expose them to higher radiation than non-ionising radiation. On the other hand‚ non-ionising

study the conduction of heat along a composite bar and evaluate the overall heat transfer coefficient. INTRODUCTION Conduction is defined as the transfer of energy from more energetic particles to adjacent less energetic particles as a result of interactions between the particles. In solids‚ conduction is the combined result of molecular vibrations and free electron mobility. Metals typically have high free electron mobility‚ which explains why they are good conductors. Conduction can be easily

Impact of Aerosols on Solar Ultraviolet Radiation and Photochemical Smog R. R. Dickerson*‚ S. Kondragunta‚ G. Stenchikov‚ K. L. Civerolo‚ B. G. Doddridge‚ B. N. Holben ABSTRACT Photochemical smog‚ or ground-level ozone‚ has been the most recalcitrant of air pollution problems‚ but reductions in emissions of sulfur and hydrocarbons may yield unanticipated benefits in air quality. While sulfate and some organic aerosol particles scatter solar radiation back into space and can cool Earth ’s surface

OBJECTIVE: 1. To demonstrate the isentropic expansion process. INTRODUCTION: In thermodynamics‚ an isentropic process is one in which for purposes of engineering analysis and calculation‚ one may assume that the process takes place from initiation to completion without an increase or decrease in the entropy of the system .If a compression or expansion of a gas takes place with no flow of heat energy either into or out of the gas - the process is said to be isentropic or adiabatic. The isentropic

does natural UVB radiation impact on the marine life? Ultraviolet-B radiation‚ also known as UVB‚ is a type of ultraviolet radiation forming a part of the electromagnetic spectrum (6). It is produced by high temperature surfaces in a continuous spectrum with the primary natural source being the sun. UVB radiation is harmful to living organisms and is only partially absorbed by the ozone layer of lower stratosphere(6). And due to ozone depletion in the recent decades‚ more UVB radiation reaches the surface
