This volume comprises the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute held in Geilo, Norway, between 4 - 14 April 1989. This Institute was the tenth in a series held at Geilo on the subject of phase transitions. It was the first to be concerned with the growing area of soft condensed matter, which is neither ordinary solids nor ordinary liquids, but somewhere in between. The Institute brought together many lecturers, students and active researchers in the field from a wide range of NATO and some non-NATO countries, with financial support principally from the NATO Scientific Affairs Division but also from Institutt for energiteknikk, the Nor wegian Research Council for Science and the Huma...
Cooling systems are a fundamental technology to ensure adequate living conditions in the interior spaces of buildings. As climate change is increasing the outside temperature, cooling systems are experiencing greater use, which can affect the decarbonization objectives established for the built environment. Thus, aspects such as efficient technologies in cooling systems, user operating patterns, and user thermal expectations have a significant impact. In addition, the use of new refrigerants can have repercussions both on the operation of the installation and on the environment. This book is a compendium of research, studies, reviews, and case studies related to refrigeration system design and technology and energy efficiency and thermal comfort.
Three guides for the systematic diagnosis of the insects directly along the rivers and streams. For the first time, the fly-fishing world has a perfect tool available to identify in a few minutes, or instantly, the aquatic insects belonging to the orders of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera. The guides are intended primarily for fly fishermen and for scientists working in the qualification of rivers, such as hydrobiologists, veterinarians and ichthyologists, who must frequently improvise if they aren't doing so already, even entomologists. The work consists of three guides (Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera and Plecoptera) designed to systematically determine the insects of these three orde...
