Starches are modified to enhance their performance in different applications. Starches may be modified to increase their stability against excessive heat, acid, shear, time, cooling, or freezing, to change their texture, to decrease or increase their viscosity, to lengthen or shorten gelatinization time or to increase their visco-stability.
Without a regenerative cooling jacket, the use of pure oxygen would rapidly destroy the engine with excess heat. Following live testing which began in 1933, the Type 93 Mod 1 was adopted in 1936. After the war, the Type 93 torpedo series was nicknamed the "Long Lance", a reference to the Nagae Yari used during the Sengoku period. The Japanese ...
- Hollow-stem sodium outlet valves - Low-temperature cooling-water circulation system with separate expansion reservoir. [6] With these modifications and the addition of Mercedes-Benz's 7G-Tronic transmission on the V12 models, it is estimated that fuel economy will rise about 21% on the European cycle for the large-bodied Mercedes vehicles ...
The upgraded 'MOD 1' torpedoes will enter service between 2020 and 2024. [11] In February 2021 HMS Talent test fired 3 upgraded 'MOD 1' specification Spearfish torpedoes as part of their final testing before entry into service with the Royal Navy, [ 12 ] whilst Vanguard-class trials were carried out in 2024.
NASICON is an acronym for sodium (Na) super ionic conductor, which usually refers to a family of solids with the chemical formula Na 1+x Zr 2 Si x P 3−x O 12, 0 < x < 3. In a broader sense, it is also used for similar compounds where Na, Zr and/or Si are replaced by isovalent elements.
The MOD II project in 1980 produced one of the most efficient automotive engines ever made. The engine reached a peak thermal efficiency of 38.5%, compared to a modern spark-ignition (gasoline) engine, which has a peak efficiency of 20–25%. The Mod II project replaced the normal spark-ignition engine in a 1985 4-door Chevrolet Celebrity ...
Uthlaut said many soldiers come in with “some level of addiction to their phones” and “don't know how to interact with one another because they're so used to being in digital-type forums.”
The outcome of this process was the adoption of Adam Langley's proposal for a variant of the original ChaCha20 algorithm (using 32-bit counter and 96-bit nonce) and a variant of the original Poly1305 (authenticating 2 strings) being combined in an IETF draft [5] [6] to be used in TLS and DTLS, [7] and chosen, for security and performance ...
