The difference between the high pressure in the front stagnation regionand the low pressure in the rear separated region causes a large drag contribution called pressuredrag. This is added to the integrated shear stress or friction drag of the body, which it oftenexceeds. The relative contributions of the friction drag and the pressure drag depend on thebody’s shape, especially its thickness

This processor must therefore, be fast and powerful enough, but not toocapable, since this will eventually drive up the component’s cost.A straight forward comparison of traditional communication system design and aUSRP/LabVIEW-based design follows. The USRP performs the traditional analog signalconditioning functions required of almost any radio, the required signal conversion (ADC andDAC), and then performs the rate conversion necessary to provide in-phase and quadrature (I &Q) signal samples, both to and from, the processor.

The laboratory study is conducted as follows:in sterilized serum bottles, methanotrophic bacteria in the exponential growth phase areinoculated in a Milli-Q water-based medium containing nitrate, other key nutrients (P, K, Na,Mg, Ca, etc.), and selected trace metals. The primary substrates, methane and oxygen, are thenintroduced and each bottle is placed on a shaker-table for incubation. Gas samples areperiodically withdrawn from the headspace of each bottle and manually injected into a gaschromatograph to measure the concentrations of methane, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. Thisallows students to monitor the amount of substrates consumed and the amount of end productproduced at different time points. Students
