In addition, researchers obtained great insights into the PMD behavior from the video footage provided, and discovered new considerations for future PMD designs that would not have been seen without this flight test.Ģ5 CFR 142.8 - Is economy of operation a requirement for the Alaska Resupply Operation? Recovery from a thruster firing, which moved the liquid to the opposite end of the tank from the PMD, was achieved in 30 sec, showing that liquid rewicked more quickly into the PMD after thruster firing than pretest projections had predicted. Liquid-free vents were achieved for two different tanks, although the flow rate was higher for the spherical tank (0.1591 cu ft/min) than for the tank with a short barrel section (0.0400 cu ft/min). Liquid was retained successfully at the highest flow rate tested (2.73 gal/min), demonstrating that rapid fills could be achieved. Transfers were more stable than drop tower testing indicated. The Vented Tank Resupply Experiment (VTRE) flown on STS-77 confirmed the design approaches presently used in the development of vane-type propellant management devices (PMD) for use in resupply and tank-venting situations, and it provided the first practical demonstration of an autonomous fluid transfer system.
Vented Tank Resupply Experiment Demonstrated Vane Propellant Management Device for Fluid Transfer This paper describes, in detail, the specific steps necessary and the issues to consider in achieving a successful contract with a vendor for full-service disease management. Given the large investment an organization may make in each disease management program (many cost 1 million dollars or more in annual fees for a moderately sized population), careful consideration must be given in selecting a disease management partner. As a relatively new field, the disease management vendor landscape is continually changing, uncovering the many uncertainties about demonstrating outcomes, corporate stability, or successful business models. One strategy is the "buy" approach, utilizing one or more of the many vendors to provide disease management services for the purchasing organization. Linden, Ariel Roberts, Nancy Keck, Kevinĭecision-makers in health plans, large medical groups, and self-insured employers face many challenges in selecting and implementing disease management programs. The complete "how to" guide for selecting a disease management vendor. Growth is achieved by adding modular subcarriers. Subcarrier approach allows multiple manifest combinations. Efficiency and flexibility are major design considerations. ECLSS contingency fluids (O2 and N2) are supplied and stored on station in a gaseous state. Resupply fluids are stored in the subcarriers on station between resupply cycles and transferred to the users as required. Space Station Freedom is resupplied with supercritical O2 and N2 for the ECLSS and USL on a 180 day resupply cycle.
Viewgraphs on space station fluid resupply are presented. The considerations to be evaluated when making a vendor selection are also discussed. The current market penetration based on the information provided by these vendors is presented and the rationale for the purchase of AIMS is discussed. This article addresses the brief history of anesthesia information management systems (AIMS) and discusses the vendors that currently market AIMS. Anesthesia information management systems marketplace and current vendors.
