Thermal Analysis of Liquid Argon Tank

Zhijing Tang

January 14, 2004

A cylindrical tank of 40 meters diameter and 30 meters high is filled
with liquid argon. It is know that the heat leak though bottom and side
causes the liquid to evaporate, which is 0.05% of the total volume per
day. The evaporated argon will be replaced by liquid argon. It is
desirable to know the temperature distribution inside the tank.

The total volume of the liquid is (20x20)(30) = 37699 m^3^. 0.05% of it
will be 18.85 m^3^ per day. That is 0.2182e-3 m^3^/s. The density of
liquid argon is 1393 kg/, and the latent heat of evaporation is 161
kJ/kg. Therefore the total heat leak is (0.2182)(1393(161) = 48930 w.
The surface area of side is (40)(30) = 3770 m^2^, and the surface area
of bottom is (20x20) = 1257 m^2^. So the heat flux through the leaking
surface is 48930/(1257+3770) = 9.734 w/ m^2^.

We assume that all the evaporation occurs at the top surface. Hence the
temperature of the top surface is kept at the boiling point of the
liquid argon, which is 87.3 K.

Other material properties of the liquid argon are: density = 1393 kg/
m^3^, viscosity = 0.26e-3 N-s/ m^2^, thermal conductivity *k* = 128
w/m-K, heat capacity *c* = 1117 J/kg-K. We do not have the temperature
coefficient of the density for sub-cooled liquid argon. Extrapolation of
the data for saturated liquid argon give us \[1\] = -6 kg/ m^3^-K
^\[^\*^\]^.

An axi-symmetric finite element model is built to calculate the
temperature and flow field. For free convection problem, the flow will
be lamina up to Rayleigh number about 10^9^ \[2\]. The Rayleigh number
of this problem is about 10^15^, so the flow will be turbulent. We first
apply small acceleration and heat flux, calculate the lamina flow, then
turn on the turbulent, and increase the acceleration and heat flux to
get a convergent solution.

Fig.1 is the vector plot of the flow velocity. We see that the maximum
flow velocity is about 7.7 cm/s, which is quite significant. Fig.2 is
the temperature distribution in the tank. We see that the temperature is
very uniform. The temperature difference is about 0.1 K.

**§4.40 Functional loss.**

Disability of the musculoskeletal system is primarily the inability, due
to damage or infection in parts of the system, to perform the normal
working movements of the body with normal excursion, strength, speed,
coordination and endurance. It is essential that the examination on
which ratings are based adequately portray the anatomical damage, and
the functional loss, with respect to all these elements. The functional
loss may be due to absence of part, or all, of the necessary bones,
joints and muscles, or associated structures, or to deformity,
adhesions, defective innervation, or other pathology, or it may be due
to pain, supported by adequate pathology and evidenced by the visible
behavior of the claimant undertaking the motion. Weakness is as
important as limitation of motion, and a part which becomes painful on
use must be regarded as seriously disabled. A little used part of the
musculoskeletal system may be expected to show evidence of disuse,
either through atrophy, the condition of the skin, absence of normal
callosity or the like.

**Allyl Mercaptan, a Garlic-Derived Organosulfur Compound, Inhibits
Histone Deacetylase and Enhances Sp3 Binding on the P21WAF1 Promoter**

College, Valhalla, NY

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have the potential to derepress
epigenetically silenced genes in cancer cells, leading to cell cycle
arrest and apoptosis. A preliminary *in vivo* study shows that garlic
extracts and some purified garlic compounds can induce histone
acetylation in the liver and intestine of mice. We screened several
garlic-derived small organosulfur compounds for their ability to inhibit
HDAC activity *in vitro*. Among the organosulfur compounds examined,
allyl mercaptan (AM) was the most potent HDAC inhibitor. Molecular
modeling, structure activity and enzyme kinetic studies with purified
human HDAC8 provided evidence for a competitive mechanism (Ki = 24 µM
AM). In AM-treated human colon cancer cells, HDAC inhibition was
accompanied by a rapid and sustained accumulation of acetylated histones
in total cellular chromatin. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays
confirmed the presence of hyperacetylated histone H3 on the P21WAF1 gene
promoter within 4 h of AM exposure, and there was increased binding of
the transcription factor Sp3. Induction of p21Waf1 protein expression
was detected at time points between 3 and 72 h after AM treatment and
coincided with growth arrest in G(1) of the cell cycle. The results are
discussed in the context of other anticarcinogenic mechanisms ascribed
to garlic organosulfur compounds and the metabolic conversion of such
compounds to potential HDAC inhibitors *in situ*.

# A Systematic Approach to Tackling Blight in Small-Town America

Mary Helen Smith; MPH, CPH, REHS, RS

About 2.2 million vacant and abandoned homes exist in the United States.
Blighted homes pose dangerous environmental (lead, asbestos, toxic
wastes) and public health (trash, rodents) problems and provide havens
for drug use and violence.

Campbell, Ohio, has a population of 8,537. High levels of unemployment
and poverty combined with insufficient government funding have allowed
approximately 80 vacant and abandoned homes to exist. Despite best
efforts, traditional code enforcement used by Campbell and the county
health department has not removed most of the 80 condemned homes.
Currently, the city spends limited resources (time, money, personnel) to
tear down houses within the constraints of cumbersome asbestos
regulations without a redevelopment plan.

The Shifting the Burden and Drifting Goals archetypes illustrate why
abandoned homes will continue to increase at an unhealthy rate in
Campbell, Ohio, unless new strategies are developed. The archetypes
provide insight about where resources can be best applied to have the
greatest impact and leverage to address the regulatory quagmire and in
tackling underlying assumptions.

This project focused on developing new solutions and a vision to engage
stakeholders in finding non-traditional methods of dealing with blighted
properties. The project outlines a process to move stakeholders from the
current reality to a new vision. The project will engage stakeholders
and community focus groups, identify funding sources, and involve
regional land-use planning to maximize green space and minimize
environmental hazards.

The processes and ideas employed in this project could be extended to
any community dealing with blighted property so that stakeholders in
other areas of the country can develop long-term strategies to
accomplish their vision and create healthier communities. This project
fits into the national performance model for environmental indices and
Healthy People 2010 to increase the quality and years of healthful
living.

***Economic Injury Loans for Small Businesses***

SBA Disaster Assistance--Field Operations Center East-One Baltimore
Place, Suite 300-Atlanta, GA 30308

**Release Date:** October 12, 2007 **Contact:** Michael Lampton

**Release Number:** 08-033, NC 11038 **Phone:** 404-347-3771

**SBA DISASTER LOANS AVAILABLE IN TENNESSEE FOLLOWING**

**SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE DISASTER DECLARATION**

**ATLANTA -** The U.S. Small Business Administration announces that
federal disaster loans are available to small businesses located in the
counties of Blount, Carter, Cocke, Greene, Johnson, Monroe, Polk, Sevier
and Unicoi in the State of Tennessee as a result of drought and high
temperatures that occurred January 1, 2007 and continuing.

"These counties are eligible because they are contiguous to one or more
primary counties in the State of North Carolina. The Small Business
Administration recognizes that disasters do not usually stop at county
or state lines. For that reason, counties adjacent to primary counties
named in the declaration are included," according to Frank Skaggs,
Director of SBA Field Operations Center East.

"When the Secretary of Agriculture issues a disaster declaration to help
farmers recover from damages and losses to crops, SBA issues a
declaration to assist small businesses affected by the same disaster,"
said Skaggs.

Under this declaration, the SBA's Economic Injury Disaster Loan program
is available to farm-related and nonfarm-related small business concerns
and small agricultural cooperatives that suffered financial losses as a
direct result of this disaster. Farmers and ranchers are not eligible to
apply to the SBA, but nurseries are eligible to apply for economic
injury disaster loans for losses caused by drought conditions.

Eligible small businesses may qualify for loans up to \$1.5 million.
These loans are available at a 4 percent interest rate with loan terms
up to 30 years. The SBA determines eligibility for the program based on
the size and type of business and its financial resources. Loan amounts
and terms are set by the SBA and are based upon each applicant's
financial condition. Under this disaster declaration, the SBA cannot
provide loans to agricultural producers.

Interested business owners should contact the SBA's Customer Service
Center by calling 1-800-659-2955\
(1-800-877-8339 for the hearing-impaired) Monday through Friday from 8
a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday from\
9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. EDT. Loan applications can be downloaded from
[www.sba.gov/services/disasterassistance](http://www.sba.gov/services/disasterassistance).
Completed applications should be mailed to U.S. Small Business
Administration, Processing and Disbursement Center, 14925 Kingsport
Road, Fort Worth, TX 76155.

**Completed loan applications must be returned to SBA no later than [May
12, 2008.]{.underline}**

Mr. John Sepela

Columbia Shipping Inc.

201 Hangar Road

Avoca, PA 18641

RE: The tariff classification of a bath mitt, bath sponge and washcloth
from Indonesia.

Dear Mr. Sepela:

In your letter dated June 4, 1996 you requested a classification ruling
on behalf of WMS Trade Group Incorporated.

The submitted bath mitt and washcloth are made of 100 percent polyester
loop pile fabric. The bath sponge is comprised of a rectangular piece of
polyurethane foam covered with a 100 percent polyester loop pile fabric.
The washcloth measures approximately 10 inches square and the edges are
finished with a thin strip of woven fabric. The mitt measures
approximately 5-1/2 by 8 inches. The fabric is folded over and sewn on
two sides. There is an opening at one end of the mitt used to facilitate
the insertion of a hand. The edges of the open portion are finished with
a thin strip of woven fabric. The bath sponge measurers approximately
4-1/2 by 6 inches. All three items are hunter green in color.

The applicable subheading for the bath mitt, washcloth and bath sponge
will be 6302.93.1000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for bed linen, table linen, toilet linen and
kitchen linen: other: of man-made fibers: pile or tufted construction.
The duty rate will be 6.8 percent ad valorem.

The above items fall within textile category designation 666. Based upon
international textile trade agreements products of Indonesia are subject
to quota and the requirement of a visa.

The designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into
parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject
merchandise may be affected. Part categories are the result of
international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent
renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current information
available, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the
Status Report on Current Import Quotas (Restraint Levels), an internal
issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available for inspection
at your local Customs office.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the
Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be
provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is
imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact
National Import Specialist John Hansen at 212-466-5854.

# ORDER

**Adopted: May 15, 2000 Released: May 16, 2000**

By the Acting Chief, Financial Analysis and Compliance Division, Cable
Services Bureau:

1\. In this Order, we consider a motion for extension of time to file a
response (\"Motion\"), filed by Energy Northwest, Inc.,
(\"Respondent\"), to a complaint (\"Complaint\") filed by TCI
Cablevision of Montana d/b/a AT&T Cable Services (\"Complainant\") on
April 14, 2000 pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 224. Under the Commission's
rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.1407 (a), a response is due by May 15, 2000. The
Motion was filed as an emergency motion pursuant to 47 C.F.R. § 1.46 on
May 12, 2000. The Respondent requests that the time for responding to
the Complaint be extended to May 24, 2000. In support of its Motion,
Respondent argues that its counsel discovered a conflict of interest
requiring Respondent to obtain new counsel as of May 11, 2000.
Respondent also argues that it may be a person who is cooperatively
organized and the extension will allow Respondent time to ascertain the
facts necessary to determine whether the Commission has jurisdiction to
resolve the Complaint. Respondent states that the Complainant does not
oppose its Motion.

2\. It is the policy of the Commission that extensions of time shall not
be routinely granted.[^1] However, Respondent has provided us with a
compelling reason that warrants an extension of time. Indeed, an
extension in this case will allow Respondent to verify facts pertaining
to the Commission's jurisdiction to resolve the complaint.

3\. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Sections 0.321, 1.46 and
1.1407 of the Commission\'s rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.321, 1.46 and 1.1407,
that Respondent's Motion for Extension of Time IS GRANTED.

#### Thune Cosponsors ESA Reform Bill

*Legislation Requires Accurate Species Count, Involves Local Landowners*

**Washington, DC --** Congressman John Thune joined House lawmakers
today to push legislation to require the US Fish and Wildlife Service
(FWS) to use sound science and data prior to listing species on a
special protection list, such as the Black-Tailed Prairie Dog.

Thune is a cosponsor of the legislation which would reform the 29-year
old Endangered Species Act and is being considered in the House
Resources Committee today.

"Too often people's lives and livelihoods are disrupted or ruined
because of a decision based on sloppy science," Thune said. "In South
Dakota, if the FWS lists the Black-Tailed Prairie Dog, they'll also have
to list South Dakota ranchers on the Endangered Species list."

H.R. 4840 requires that FWS's decisions on listing species be based on
sound science that is field-tested and peer-reviewed. Today, the federal
government can list species based on population estimates with no
outside review.

"The federal government should base its decisions on facts not
estimates, because these decisions can profoundly impact the livelihoods
of farmers, ranchers and other South Dakotans," Thune said. "This
legislation brings reliable and proven science into the Endangered
Species Act (ESA) process. It restores credibility to the ESA by
creating a system of peer-review for federal listing decisions."

Earlier this year, Thune responded to this ongoing problem by
introducing H.R. 3920, the Rancher Preservation Act. This legislation
would reform the listing process for the Black-tailed Prairie Dog to
include sound science and more landowner input. Some of the same
principles in Thune's H.R. 3920 are included in H.R. 4840.

"Many agricultural groups in South Dakota, such as the Cattlemen,
Stockgrowers, Farm Bureau and Farmer's Union, oppose the listing of the
prairie dog, because they know there is a lack of hard data on
populations," said Thune. "This bill will require actual population
counts of prairie dogs and local landowner input before any animal is
listed as threatened or endangered. The people closest to the land and
living with the destructive effects of the prairie dogs should have a
say in the process."

In South Dakota, there are several species that are candidates to be
listed as either threatened or endangered -- the Pallid Sturgeon (fish),
Topeka Shiner (fish), Piping Plover (bird), Least Tern (bird), and the
Dakota Skipper (butterfly) and the Black-tailed Prairie Dog.

Docket No. 2005N-0279

Division of Dockets Management

5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061

Rockville, MD 20852

It is important that the words "Gluten-Free" appear on food labels in
order to identify any **Wheat, Rye, Barley or Oats and any of their
derivatives** within the food. This is necessary in order for people
like myself to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

In order to identify foods that do not have gluten, I have to spend a
large amount of time reading labels every time I have to go to the
grocery store. If food manufactures were required to label their
gluten-free products with the words "Gluten-Free", my life (and many
others with Celiac Sprue Disease) would not have to suffer from the ill
effects of digesting gluten.

At this time, a very small percentage of foods are marked "Gluten-Free",
which limits our choices drastically. Any type of canned, boxed, or
packaged food should contain the words "Gluten-Free" if in fact they
are.

Having "Gluten-Free" printed on a product label greatly influences my
decision to purchase products. It is only via this way that I can rest
assured that I am not inadvertently digesting gluten. For example, if
there are two cans of Chicken Noodle Soup on the shelf and one was
marked "Gluten-Free", I would [always]{.underline} choose the can of
soup labeled "Gluten-Free" versus the other one that is not.

I would not consider a two or more level definition of "Gluten-Free" as
being helpful. For my health, it is extremely important to know the
basics. It either contains gluten or it does not. It does not matter
whether it contains trace or small amounts of gluten, the point is my
body does not digest gluten in any way and I become ill every time I eat
it.

Unfortunately, this is a struggle I face every single day of my life.
Unless labeling laws are changed to reflect the above request, I will
continue to suffer the ill effects of inadvertently contaminating myself
on a regular basis. Please consider the labeling of "Gluten-Free" foods
(identifying Wheat, Rye, Barley or Oats and any of their derivatives) so
the lives of many can rest assured they are doing everything possible to
stay healthy.

Your consideration of this matter is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Kimberly D. Kackman
