	Clinker (boat building) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Clinker is a boat building technique used for constructing hulls of boats and ships by fixing wooden planks and in the early nineteenth century, iron plates to each other so that the planks overlap along their edges.
		The Clinker form of construction is linked in people's minds, with the Vikings who used this method to build their famous longships from riven timber (split wood) planks.
		Clinker is the British term, it is known as lapstrake in North America.

	Clinker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In combustion, clinker is the name of the rocky glassy material that remains after burning coal.
		In metallurgy, clinker is the term for the material remaining after the process of smelting a metal ore.
		Clinker is used in the manufacture of Portland cement.

	North Dakota's Clinker
		Clinker beds typically range from a few feet to 50 feet or so thick in western North Dakota, but much thicker beds are found in Wyoming and Montana.
		Clinker resists erosion because it is harder than nearby unbaked rocks and also because heating and subsidence during burning produce fractures that allow water to infiltrate, minimizing surface runoff.
		After the clinker cools, the spaces that resulted from collapsing of the materials are convenient places in which rattlesnakes and other animals can live.

	The High Plains (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The reddish siltstone rock that caps many ridges and buttes in the Powder River Basin is called "clinker" or "scoria." Clinker is rock that has been fused by the natural burning of underlying coal beds.
		Clinker forms a distinct part of the ecosystem in the basin.
		Because soils formed from clinker are very permeable, they absorb rain and melting snow like a sponge and protect it from evaporation.

	Process for manufacturing rapid hardening portland cement clinker - Patent 4028126
		CaO remains in the clinker obtained and further, the clinker shows the dusting phenomenon on cooling since large quantities of C.sub.2 S formed in the clinker transfers to the.gamma.-phase, powdered clinker also clogs the perforated plate of clinker cooler and disturbs the operation of a rotary kiln.
		The mineral composition of the clinker was 39.4% of C.sub.11 A.sub.7.sup..
		The clinker was ground, hemihydrate and anhydrite were added to the clinker and the resultant cement was subjected to the mortar test as described in Example 3.

		Clinker is a fused or partly fused byproduct of the combustion of coal or vitrified slag.
		Natural clinker deposits are a result of coal combustion often attributed to prairie fires, or lightning strikes.
		Natural clinker deposits are often found on the edges of drainage systems, where down cutting of streams exposed coal beds and enhanced the possibility of spontaneous combustion.

		But John Morand, chair of the Toronto Port Authority, says the clinker brought into the harbour by ship and deposited by a clamshell-type crane onto piles (where water is sprayed to maintain a hard-crust surface) is "perfectly safe." He says the operation meets all federal and provincial environmental requirements.
		Such is not the case at Toronto harbour, where the process of loading the clinker onto the dock, its storage into piles and subsequent removal onto trucks is all done in the open.
		Since clinker is a product, not a waste, she adds, "there are no regulations in how [it] is used or managed" on Port Authority docks.

		Clinker forms from the natural burning of underlying coal beds, and consists of baked (melted) and fused rocks that are commonly red or red-brown in color.
		The areas of clinker were transferred from original maps (folded paper copies) to a base stable medium (mylar) and registered using bounding control points in geographic (latitude and longitude) coordinates.
		Individual clinker polygon coverages from the different map sources and from different areas were then joined to form a single, composite polygon coverage for the clinker.

		Examining a single sample of clinker in isolation will indicate the general features of that clinker but usually it is more useful to have at least two samples.
		In the simplest case, if clinker or cement characteristics have changed from normal, a sample of typical clinker to compare with the atypical clinker should highlight the differences.
		If a series of clinkers is examined over time, a picture will emerge of what is 'normal' for that works' clinker, providing a context for subsequent examination of single samples.

		Clinker may be defined as “stony matter that has fused together due the application of heat,” in this case, heat produced when veins of lignite coal burned over periods of many years, baking the surrounding sediment to form of natural brick.
		In North Dakota, clinker is commonly referred to as “scoria,” a misnomer that reflects the notion that it formed as a result of volcanic processes.
		Clinker beds are especially striking in appearance after a shower, which intensifies their typical reddish color..

		This is followed by the clinkering process in which the calcium oxide reacts at high temperature (typically 1400-1500 °C) with silica, alumina, and ferrous oxide to form the silicates, aluminates, and ferrites of calcium which comprise the clinker.
		In clinker burning, the raw meal (or raw meal slurry in the wet process) is fed to the rotary kiln system where it is dried, pre-heated, calcined and sintered to produce cement clinker.
		Clinker transport in the reciprocating grate cooler is effected by stepwise pushing of the clinker bed by the front edges of alternate rows of plates.

		An epistolary novel, "Humphry Clinker" is no stranger in format to the eighteenth century - however, odd to me was the fact that none of the writers - Squire Bramble, his sister Tabitha, their nephew and niece Jery and Lydia Melford, and Tabitha's waiting woman Winifred - ever receives a response.
		The letters of the Bramble expedition encompass a wide range of topics, along a range of experience and sentiment, of interaction, which itself is a veritable buffet of later eighteenth century customs, coffeehouse culture, civil engineering, agriculture, speech, fashion, science, moral philosophy, art, and manners spanning Wales, England, and Scotland, both in countryside and cityscape.
		Their various perspectives on two of the novel's minor characters, the eponymous Humphry Clinker and the combative disputant Scot Obadiah Lismahago (the most cosmopolitan figure among the recurring characters), confer substance, interest, and warmth upon characters who do not themselves write letters.
