The respiratory system is a vital factor of gas exchange due to its structures. The structure provides an efficiency to the process. Gas exchange requires an efficient system because it is a process through which blood circulates around the body‚ collects oxygen‚ delivers the oxygen to the organs that require it and releases carbon dioxide. oxygen and carbon dioxide enter and exit the body in opposite directions across a respiratory surface area that supplies enough oxygen to allow the process to

Process fundamentals The cutting process is illustrated in Fig. 1. Basically‚ a mixture of oxygen and the fuel gas is used to preheat the metal to its ’ignition’ temperature which‚ for steel‚ is 700°C - 900°C (bright red heat) but well below its melting

Gas exchange or respiration in humans is the means by which getting oxygen from air into the blood and carbon dioxide out of the blood into the air. Humans must exchange these gases with the environment because oxygen is essential for cells‚ which use this vital substance to release the energy needed for cellular activities. In addition to supplying oxygen‚ carbon dioxide needs to be removed in order to prevent the buildup of this waste product in the body tissues. As breathing is the act or process

efficient distribution and transmission network. High voltage gas insulated switchgear (GIS) is ideal for such applications. The range of application of SF₆ Gas Insulated Switchgear extends from voltage ratings of 72.5 kV up to 800 kV with breaking currents of up to 63 kA‚ and in special cases up to 80 kA. Both small transformer substations and large load- centre substations can be designed with GIS technology. The distinctive advantages of SF₆ Gas Insulated Switchgear are: compact‚ low weight‚ high reliability
