Nondimensional pump curves are obtained by expressing head, flow rate, power input, and efficiency as percentages of the corresponding values at the best efficiency point, and such curves are useful for comparing the hydraulic properties of pumps belonging to the same type and assessing the performance of pumps of different specific speeds for various applications.
The number of iterations depends on the complexity of the input and efficiency of the algorithm.
To account for variation in RNA input and efficiency of reverse transcription the calculated mRNA copy numbers were factorial normalized.
Table 5 shows a comparison of the energy inputs and energy efficiencies of the gaseous ammonia plus attritor milling process described here with processes that have been characterized with respect to energy input and efficiency in other laboratories.
To account for variation in RNA input and efficiency of reverse transcription the calculated mRNA copy numbers were normalized by dividing with a normalization factor derived from the expression of the reference gene.
Total efficiency is a combination of technical efficiency (TE), which reflects the ability of a unit to obtain maximal output from a set of inputs, and allocative efficiency, which reflect the ability of a unit to use the inputs in optimal proportions, given their respective prices.
Tapping into ecosystem services reduces the need for external inputs and improves efficiency.
Intensified food production aims for higher yields per area through an increase in inputs and operational efficiency.
A combined neural network-based predictive model was developed for the two biofilters using unit flow (X1) and inlet concentration (X2) as the model inputs and removal efficiency (Y1) as the output.
Better use of human resource management (e.g. in remote health centers or centers with less visits/workload the dentists should work without an assistant in order to reduce inputs and improve efficiency) and also measures to improve staff performance should be employed.
