LED lights / incandescent / fluorescent lights, who is the most difficult to recruit mosquitoes?

A new study by scientists at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom has shown that household LED lights are much less attractive to polluting insects (such as ticks) than traditional incandescent lamps. The team also highlighted the urgency of further research on other heat-borne flies that transmit diseases, including mosquitoes that are carriers of pathogens that cause harmful diseases such as malaria and zika Fever. The study was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council and the British lighting manufacturer Integral LED, which conducted field trials at 18 locations in the southwestern United Kingdom, using custom traps, using LED lights, incandescent and fluorescent lighting to provide more than 4,000 Only insects were carefully identified. The results show that the number of insects attracted by LEDs is four times lower than that of conventional incandescent lamps, which is only half that of compact fluorescent lamps. It is worth noting that for ticks (Citrus mosquitoes, some of which are carriers of wildlife diseases), 80% are attracted by incandescent lamps, 15% are attracted by compact fluorescent lamps, and two different LED luminaires only attract 2 %-3%. Dr. Andy Wakefield conducted field research on projects led by Professor Gareth Jones and Stephen Harris at the University of Biosciences. Dr. Wakefield said: We are amazed at the number of flies caught by traditional tungsten lamps. We don't know why this is happening, but we understand that some insects use hot clues to find warm-blooded hosts at night, so maybe they are heated by incandescent lamps. attract. As a co-sponsor of the study, Integral LED played an important role in the commissioning of the project and provided technical and financial support. Integral LED Marketing Director Sanjiv Kotecha said: As a lighting manufacturer, the low attractiveness of LED luminaires to insects has been confirmed, which we are happy to see. The energy-saving advantages of solid-state lighting are well known, but the health benefits are just beginning to be revealed. .

Floating Head Heat Exchanger

Floating head heat exchanger is a common heat transfer equipment, it uses the heat conduction principle, the heat transfer from one medium to another medium. The main components of floating heat exchanger include shell, tube bundle, floating head, tube plate, support parts, seals and so on. Among them, the floating head is a part floating in the tube bundle, used to separate two media in the tube bundle, and transfer heat to another medium. Floating head heat exchanger is widely used in chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, food and other industries in the heating, cooling, evaporation, condensation and other processes, with high heat exchange efficiency, small occupation area, convenient operation and maintenance.
