Bubbles in water-gas system and three-phase system were measured. The results indicate that with the current setup the bubbles as small as 10 μm can be easily distinguished. The average size of the bubbles generated under the given conditions in two-phase system is 410 μm at frother concentration of 0.004%, which is in good correspondence with the results of other works. The effect of frother on bubble size was probed. Increasing frother concentration from 0 to 0.004% causes a reduction of bubble size from 700 to 400 μm. The bubble loading efficiency was reported. The result indicates that the fine particle is more easily entrapped than the coarse particle. Some factors, which have effect on measurement accuracy were discussed. The aeration speed has a significant effect on the accuracy of results, if it surpasses 30 mL/s, and the image becomes unclear due to the entrapment of fine particle. Another factor, which can affect observing results, is the sampling position. At a wrong sampling position, the images become unclear.展开更多

Article concerns the importance of analyzing IT acceptance, while describing IT in organization and points out that inadequate variable choice may influence validity of IT analysis. First part of the article describes both variables analyzed in presented research--IT dissemination and IT acceptance. It also presents how in theory IT can influence organizational structure. The main part of the article describes empirical studies conducted in order to verify if the influence of IT on the organizational structure exists. First, the main goal and methodology of the empirical studies are presented. Variables used to assess IT and organizational structure in organizations are discussed. Then, there is a description of research results--statistical correlation between analyzed variables and regression models is shown. Conclusion of the article is that IT can influence organizational structure, but the most important factor ensuring this influence is the actual use of IT by employees of the organization--their access to IT is not enough.展开更多
