Most of the commercially available wireless power transmitters or chargers use short range magnetic coupling. Non resonant coupling is usable only within a few centimeter range. The resonant coupling results in a little longer range. As the distance grows in-between the transmitter and receiver, the efficiency drops.
Numerous methods have been developed to enhance transdermal drug permeation, e.g., iontophoresis, electroporation, ultrasound, ablation, along with chemical enhancers like, alcohols, terpenes, azones and, more recently, solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Traditional delivery methods based on passive diffusion of drug molecules into the skin are unable to deliver macromolecules,
AQUA mist nozzle is an affordable cheap nozzle that saves 98% of the tap water by cutting down the flow rate below 400 ml per minute. This water is more than enough for the basic applications like washing our hands or even doing the dishes.
Recently the regulation of engine exhaust gas is more and more tight and in electricity generation industry gas engine is more and more promising instead of turbine using liquid fuel and diesel engine. Because gas engine using natural gas has advantage of stable supply and low exhaust harmful gas,
