The Astro/PGBA [Astro/plant generic bioprocessing apparatus] experiment hardware is contained in a double locker that will be installed into the EXPRESS Rack after the Shuttle is in orbit. The hardware consists of a plant growth chamber with a 10-inch by 12-inch growth area that allows 10 inches of plant height and 2 inches of roots. Fluorescent or LEO lighting will simulate sunlight, and an atmospheric control system will maintain set levels of carbon dioxide and humidity while scrubbing volatile organic compounds, such as ethylene, that can accumulate and inhibit plant growth. Plant transpiration water, collected from a dehumidifier system, can be recirculated back into the root matrix. A computer system will control experiment operations and provide engineering and video data for downlink to investigators on the ground. 2, record 2, English, - astro%2Fplant%20generic%20bioprocessing%20apparatus

The gases are heated or cooled in "direct contact heat transfer" sections at the bottom of the towers. The trays are termed heat transfer trays because their function is primarily heat transfer, although some mass transfer takes place. If the trays are used to heat the gas, they are called humidifying trays and the section of the tower containing the trays is referred to as humidifier section. Dehumidifying trays and dehumidifier sections apply to gas cooling. 1, record 6, English, - direct%20contact%20heat%20transfer

Échangeurs de chaleur - On appelle ainsi, d'une manière générale, tout appareil construit et utilisé en vue de transmettre la chaleur d'un corps à un autre, le plus souvent d'un fluide à un autre fluide. [...] D'après le principe de fonctionnement, il y a trois types fondamentaux d'échangeurs de chaleur : - les échangeurs à mélange ou à contacts, dans lesquels les deux fluides sont mis en contact direct; [...] - les échangeurs où l'un des deux fluides est à l'état liquide et l'autre, à l'état gazeux; exemple : un échangeur où la chaleur de l'air comprimé sortant d'un compresseur est transmise à de l'eau froide, avant le passage de cet air, dans un deuxième compresseur, ou dans l'appareil d'utilisation. 2, record 6, French, - transfert%20de%20chaleur%20par%20contact%20direct
