Flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate in a pipeline. Most meters are based on deriving a signal from the fluid flow and calibrating the signal against the volumetric flow rate. The calibration is done in fully-developed flow, and the same state of flow must exist at the meter's position when it is in practical use. Because the field of flow metering has been neglected by fluid mechanicists for a long time, this book addresses two major fluid mechanical problems in flow metering: the analysis of signal generation in turbulent pipe flow, which explains the function of the meter beyond a simple calibration, and the possible use of a meter in non-developed flows. These problems are investigated with reference to, and examples from, a variety of meters, e.g. ultrasound cross-correlation meters, vortex meters, and turbine meters. Studying these problems requires consideration of specific phenomena in turbulent non-developed pipe flow, as caused by installations, and finding special solutions with signal processing, both of which are included in the book.

Die rasante Entwicklung der Kornrnunikationstechnologien im letzten Jahrzehnt hat den weltweiten Austausch von Daten zu privaten und kommerziellen Zwecken ermoeglicht. Vor allem durch UEbertragung in oeffentlich zuganglichen Netzen sind sensitive Daten und Nachrichten vielfaltigen Gefahren ausgesetzt. Dies gilt sowohl fur Nachrichten, die zwischen Kornmunikations- partnern ausgetauscht werden, als auch fur Daten, die in Daten- banken und Rechnersystemen gespeichert oder verarbeitet werden. Prinzipiell sind alle derartigen Systeme physikalischen wie EDV-technischen Zugriffen ausgesetzt. Gefahrdungen bestehen z . B. in - moeglichen Zugriffen auf Informationen durch unberechtigte Personen oder Systeme - Versuchen zur Herstellung unberechtigter Verbindungen - Modifikationen der Authentizitat, Integritat und Anordnung von Nachrichtenstroemen - Wiedereinspielen authentischer Nachrichten -Versuchen zur Systemblockierung und dergleichen --- Der Ruf nach sicheren Datenschutztechniken ist zwar allent- halben zu hoeren, Schwerpunkte der oeffentlichen Diskussion sind organi atorische und juristische Datensicherungsrnassnahrnen. Die meisten Datensicherheitsprobleme gestatten mathematische Loesungen. Kryptographie ist ein Weg zu sicherer Kommunikation, zum Verbergen von Nachrichteninhalten und zur Gewahrleistung authentisierbaren Nachrichtenaustauschs. Ein weiteres schwieriges Problern taucht auf. Elektronische Kornmunikations- systeme sind fur viele Benutzer entwickelt worden. Bei der gegenseitigen Kornmunikation unter Verwendung eines krypta- graphischen Systems mussen zunachst unter den Teilnehmern Schlussel ausgetauscht werden. Ein Schlussel dient dazu, ein allgerneines Verschlusselungsverfahren zu spezialisieren. Denkt man an die vielen Kunden einer Bank und ferner daran, dass man VI in einem System wie Btx auch noch mit anderen oeffentlichen Einrichtungen (Kaufhauser, Verwaltung, etc. ) kommunizieren kann, so ist klar, welche enorme Anzahl von Schlusseln verteilt und verwaltet werden muss.

The enantiomerically pure pyrrolidine diester (Ring A) is a useful building block for the synthesis of chiral tolyporphin and other hydroporphyrin compounds. This was synthesized from enantiomerically pure lactam-lactone. Treatment of optically active aromatic amines with bislactone gave pairs of N-alkylated lactam-lactone diastereomers. These diastereomers were separated by MPL chromatography and debenzylated using ceric (IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN) to yield enantiomerically pure lactam-lactone isomers. The (-)-lactam-lactone enantiomer was treated with methanolic cyanide solution which selectively opened lactone ring to form the cyano lactam. This was further transformed into the cis- and trans-thiocyanolactam isomers. The configurations of these isomers were established by NOE experiment which was confirmed by X-ray measurement and theoretical means(ab initio calculations). Coupling of cis-thiocyanolactam with bromomalonic diester according to the sulphide contraction method gave the enantiomerically pure pyrrolidine diester.
