I first heard about Richard Feynman
in the video, "Last Journey of a Genius" on PBS. Since
then I have read "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman"
and "What Do You Care What Other People Think?"
His humor and style of presenting ideas appeals to me. Read the
first chapter of his book The Meaning of It
All (the entire chapter is viewable online) to see if you
also find him entertaining as well as enlightening! |

"You cannot understand science
and its relation to anything else unless you understand and appreciate
the great adventure of our time. You do not live in your time
unless you understand that this is a tremendous adventure and
a wild and exciting thing."

To a 2-L jacketed round reactor vessel (reactor #1) with an overall
heat transfer coefficient of about 100 Btu/F-ft2-hr, add ingredients
one, two and three with constant agitation.
In a second 2-L reactor vessel with a radial flow impeller operating
at 100 rpm, add ingredients four, five, six, and seven until the
mixture is homogenous.
To reactor #2, add ingredient eight, followed by three equal volumes
of the homogenous mixture in reactor #1.
Additionally, add ingredient nine and ten slowly, with constant
agitation. Care must be taken at this point in the reaction to
control any temperature rise that may be the result of an exothermic
reaction.
Using a screw extrude attached to a #4 nodulizer, place the mixture
piece-meal on a 316SS sheet (300 x 600 mm).
Heat in a 460K oven for a period of time that is in agreement
with Frank &Johnston's first order rate expression (see JACOS,
21, 55), or until golden brown.
Once the reaction is complete, place the sheet on a 25C heat-transfer
table, allowing the product to come to equilibrium. |
