Empirical evaluation of different groove feed screw geometries
Plasticization rates can be greatly increased with the use of grooved feed extrusion. Grooved feed extruders can be used in a wide range of extrusion processes for higher output rates. This technology has doubled plasticization rates for some resins and processes as compared to smooth bore extruders.
This paper will compare the performance of three different screw geometries while processing fractional melt HDPE. One of the main methods of evaluation will be the comparison of internal pressure profiles over the entire length of the screw at eleven different locations down the length of the barrel at two L/D apart.

Ron frisardsprofessionalpresenations.ppt
Ron Frisard presented several conference papers from 1998 to 2006 on topics related to gasket and valve packing performance. Some of the key points discussed in the papers include:
- Evaluating factors that influence gasket life such as belleville spring configuration, gasket material, thickness, and stress levels.
- Discussing new low-friction packing technologies that allow valves to operate within parameters without compromising sealability.
- Emphasizing the importance of proper maintenance procedures and technician training for successful valve packing programs.
Re-torquing valves and it's effect on gland load
The document discusses re-torquing valves versus using spring assemblies to maintain gland load. It notes that re-torquing is not reliable because thread lubricants like anti-seize dry out over time, changing their coefficient of friction. Testing showed dried anti-seize can seize or gall threads. Chesterton's spring assemblies help maintain consistent gland load through thermal cycling. The document promotes live loading valves to directly measure gland load changes.
Packing Newsletter November 07
The document summarizes the November 2007 packing newsletter from Ron Frisard at Global Training. The newsletter highlights: 1) A US Department of Energy report on costs for fossil power plants that provides performance data to help understand plant decision drivers and ROI analysis. 2) Chesterton's Supersets replacement kits that allow customers to stock pre-cut packing rings instead of full boxes for easier replacement. 3) A case history of a tailings pump in remote oil sands that was repacked with a modified Chesterton Superset to reduce replacement from every 4 days to longer intervals in extreme climate.
Top 5 Signs Of A Quality Pump Packing
The document outlines 5 signs of a quality pump packing company:
1) Experience manufacturing quality products and delivering them on time with field experts to solve hard applications and customize solutions.
2) A customer-focused manufacturing process that creates consistent products through controlled documentation and a focus on easier installation.
3) Using the best technology and testing products in real environments to address customer needs.
4) Properly sizing yarn before braiding to prevent weak packing and using lubricated yarn.
5) Encapsulating yarn strands with blocking agents that fully coat each strand to prevent leakage.
China Presenation
The document compares facts about China, the United States, and Groton, Connecticut. It states that while China has a larger size and population than the United States, the town of Groton, Connecticut is much smaller at 33.72 square miles with a population of 9,547 people. It also provides some brief background information on the Great Wall of China, noting that it is over 2,000 years old and stretches 4,500 miles, originally built to protect China from northern invaders.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
