An engineering model for creeping flame spread over idealized electrical wires in microgravity by Coimbra, Alain, Li, Yutao, Guibaud, Augustin, Citerne, Jean-Marie, Legros, Guillaume, Consalvi, Jean-Louis

“…This assumption is supported by more detailed numerical simulations and the model reduces then to solving the heat transfer equations for both NiCr and LDPE in the pyrolysis region and in the region ahead of the flame front along with a simple degradation model for LDPE, an Oseen approximation of opposed oxidizer flow and an infinitely fast gas-phase chemistry. The flame spread rate (FSR) is controlled by two model parameters, which are measurable from intrinsic material and ambient gas properties: the convective flame heat flux transferred to the solid ahead from the flame front and the gaseous thermal heat length near the flame front. …”

Cowpea cropping systems, traits preference and production constraints in the upper west region of Ghana: farmers' consultation and implications for breeding by Benjamin Karikari, Margaret Delle Maale, Ebenezer Anning, Daniel Brain Akakpo, Afishata Mohammed Abujaja, Isaac Kwahene Addai

“…Farmers preferred cowpea varieties with the following traits: high yield, drought tolerance, early maturing, pest resistance, improve soil fertility, high price, high demand, better taste, less cooking time, storage quality, palatability and fast growing. Farmers indicated that susceptibility to storage pests, high pest incidence, late maturity, difficulty in harvesting, high input cost, small grain size, low yield, high disease incidence, poor colour, lack of improved variety, and drought are some constraints that hinder cowpea production. …”
