Both the standard and the modified RELAP5/MOD3.2 codes are used to simulate two kinds of vertical in-tube experiments and a horizontally stratified in-tube experiment involving the condensation phenomenon in the presence of noncondensable gases.
Two vertical in-tube experiments, Passive Containment Cooling System (PCCS) condensation and reflux condensation experiments, provide data on the steady-state behaviors with a typical flow, pressure and air mass fraction conditions likely to be seen in a condensing tube of PCCS and in a U-tube of a steam generator in a mid-loop operation.
The horizontally stratified in-tube experiment represents the direct-contact condensation phenomena in a hot leg of a nuclear reactor.
The drug, which mimics a DNA building block, is active against many viruses in test tube experiments and is in human studies to treat cytomegalovirus and adenovirus infections.
In test tube experiments, reported this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the researchers showed that the PM antibodies in the serum significantly retarded the larval growth, in a dose-dependent way.
The new virus easily copied itself in monkey cells--at least in test tube experiments.
The involvement of PPI family members in protein refolding has been established in test tube experiments.
These profiles were collected by 12 independent work groups in laminar premixed CH4 and C2H4 flames under atmospheric pressure or in shock tube experiments under elevated pressure.
In test tube experiments, he found that compound 12 did not cause platelet coagulation in the blood of patients who suffered the PF4 side-effect.
Dr. Gearhart, however, has shown in test tube experiments that his germline cells have many of the same properties as embryonic stem cells.
In test tube experiments, they discovered that a portion of this protein caused it to destroy cells that line blood vessels.
