The impact of roasting on the ochratoxin A content of coffee

Roasting coffee led to a drop in the ochratoxin A (OTA) concentration, as measured by the reference method, especially for dark type roasts. The way the beverage was prepared also affected the OTA content, which could paradoxically be higher than that of the initial roasted coffee. Assays on the thermal stability of pure OTA showed that it ought to be found in larger quantities in roasted coffee. This suggested that OTA was masked by reactions with the substrate during roasting. The absence of OTA in green coffee is therefore the best guarantee of safety.

A review on queueing network models with finite capacity queues for software architectures performance prediction

A review is carried out on how queueing network models with blocking have been applied so far into the performance evaluation and prediction of Software Architectures (SA). Queueing network models with finite capacity queues and blocking have recently been introduced and applied as more realistic models of systems with finite capacity resources and population constraints. Queueing network models have been often adopted as models for the evaluation of software performance. Starting from our own experience, we observe the need of a more accurate definition of the performance models of SA to capture some features of the communication systems. We consider queueing networks with finite capacity and blocking after service (BAS) to represent some synchronization constraints that cannot be easily modeled with queueing network models with infinite capacity queues. We investigate the use of queueing networks with blocking as performance models of SA with concurrent components and synchronous communication. Queueing theoretic analysis is used to solve the queueing network model and study the synchronous communication and performance of concurrent software components. Our experience is supported by other approaches that also propose the use of queueing networks with blocking. Directions for future research work in the field are included.

Cooling of cylindrical vertical tanks submitted to natural internal convection

A numerical and an experimental analysis of velocity and temperature fields inside a storage tank submitted to natural convection is presented. The analysis was performed in two stages. In the first stage, the temperature profile along the vertical axis of the storage tank was obtained experimentally and numerically, for cooling time ranging from 45 to 60 h. The numerical analysis was carried out using a transient bi-dimensional model in cylindrical co-ordinates. In the second stage, after the numerical code validation, 40 cases of cooling with four aspect ratios, five insulation thicknesses, and two different volumes were simulated. In all simulations, thermal losses for the environment in all tank walls (side, top and bottom) were considered. Two correlations for the Nusselt number, encompassing all the forty cases, were obtained with these results.
