The taper rate for all NPT threads is 1â16 (3â4 inch per foot) measured by the change of diameter (of the pipe thread) over distance. The angle between the taper and the center axis of the pipe is 1Â° 47'â² 24â³ (1.7899Â°). Commonly-used sizes are 1/â8, 1/â4, 3/â8, 1â/2, 3â/4, 1, 1 1â/4, 1 1â/2, and 2 inch, appearing on pipes and fittings by most U.S. suppliers.
Ozone is a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms, often referenced as O3. Ozone is formed when heat and sunlight cause chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen (NOX) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), which are also known as Hydrocarbons. This reaction can occur both near the ground and high in the atmosphere.
Stratospheric âgoodâ ozone. Ninety percent of the ozone in the atmosphere sits in the stratosphere, the layer of atmosphere between about 10 and 50 kilometers altitude. The natural level of ozone in the stratosphere is a result of a balance between sunlight that creates ozone and chemical reactions that destroy it.zone protects life on Earth from the Sunâs ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In the lower atmosphere (the troposphere) near the Earthâs surface, ozone is created by chemical reactions between air pollutants from vehicle exhaust, gasoline vapors, and other emissions.
