The electrical experiments are the link between the early Franklin and the later Franklin — between the young striver and the Papa Savant.
To determine the effects of surface, mineral and electrolytic conductions on bulk electrical conduction, experiments were performed under dry and saturated conditions using three different fluid salinities.
Electrical conductivity experiments were carried out in a bi-ionic (chloride nitrate) electrolyte with and without a permselective anion exchange membrane (ACS of Tokuyama Soda) at variable chloride/nitrate concentration.
In order to minimise vibration and electrical noise, my experiments were conducted under austere conditions: in the middle of the night, on an air table, inside a Faraday cage, and with all non-essential equipment – including lights – turned off.
Replicate electrical resistance heating experiments were performed in a thin bench-scale apparatus, where water was boiled and pooled dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) trichloroethene (TCE) and water were co-boiled in unconsolidated silica sand.
The electrical performance experiments are performed by using the four-point probe resistance tester (FP-001), then the electrical conductivity of the printed patterns is measured.
When I first began my electrical experiments, I was told that electricity was the stuff of parlor games, and that I should not bother myself with such an unproven source of energy.
Voltammograms were analyzed using the freely available software Q-Soas.[ 46] The electrochemical cell was used in a steel mesh Faraday cage to minimize electrical noise, and all experiments were conducted under purging with argon.
In order to evaluate the influence of high-speed rotating workpieces on wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM), single discharge experiments were carried out inside a grinding machine, in a self-designed wire electrical discharge dressing device (WEDD-device).
On the same subject, recent electrical experiments have been performed on the rat olfactory receptor (OR) OR I7 and on the human OR 17-40 properly deposited on a functionalized gold substrate with the technique of molecular self-assembly.
