Abstract
Heat transfer through a very thin horizontal liquid layer bounded on top by a cooled glass plate and on bottom by a heated copper plate was measured. Results were correlated in terms of Nusselt number as a function of Rayleigh number. Three different liquids were used under conditions to give a range of Rayleigh number from 350 to 4100 and Prandtl number from 34 to 477. Up to a critical condition heat is transferred by conduction alone. Convection appears when Ra = 1600 ± 100. A correlation for critical Rayleigh number as a function of Prandtl number was obtained.

    On the size of PLA's required to realize binary and multiple-valued functions 

    Bender, Edward A.; Butler, Jon T. (1989-01);
    While the use of programmable logic arrays in modern logic design is common, little is known about what PLA size provides reasonable coverage in typical applications. We address this question by showing upper and ...

    Cardinality of upper average and its application to network optimization 

    Norton, Matthew; Mafusalov, Alexander; Uryasev, Stan (SIAM, 2018);
    We propose a new characteristic for counting the number of large outcomes in a data set that are considered to be large with respect to some fixed threshold x. A popular characteristic used for this purpose is the ...

    A model for minimizing numeric function generator complexity and delay 

    Knudstrup, Timothy A. (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2007-12);
    Numeric Function Generators (NFGs) have allowed computation of difficult mathematical functions in less time and with less hardware than commonly employed methods. They compute piecewise linear (or quadratic) approximations ...
