AHFME Academic Member 2011 Total Annual Earnings Survey
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determine the 2011 annual earnings of hospitality financial management educators. Forty percent of AHFME's members affiliated with educational institutions responded. Annual base salaries ranged from $67,000 to $185,000. The lowest paid member is an assistant professor while the highest paid member is a full professor. Many respondents supplement their base salaries by both teaching during summer school and consulting. The total annual earnings of members ranged from $75,000 to $293,000. Hospitality financial management educators appear to be more highly compensated than the average college professor.
AHFME Academic Member 2000 Total Annual Earnings Survey
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determine the 2000 annual earnings of hospitality financial management educators. Fifty-five percent of AHFME's members affiliated with educational institutions responded. Annual base salaries ranged from $28,000 to $125,000. The lowest-paid member is an assistant professor while the highest-paid member is a full professor. Most respondents supplement their base salaries by teaching during summer school and doing consulting work. The total annual earnings of members ranged from $38,000 to $200,000. Hospitality financial management educators appear to be more highly compensated than hospitality industry financial executives.
Characterization of ceramic composite membrane filters for hot gas cleaning
Abstract Novel composite ceramic membrane filters suitable for hot gas cleaning operations have been prepared from fly ash and titania particles on stainless steel woven mesh substrates. Both membranes had a structure like a solid packed bed with a thickness of less than 100 μm. In the domain of laminar flow, significant differences in the pressure drop between experimental results and those predicted from the Kozeny-Carman relationship were found, particularly for flow through the titania membrane. Membrane filters with extremely small pores such as the titania membrane are greatly affected by slip up to 80% in permeability at elevated temperatures. Efficiencies of filtration of typical coal fired power station exhaust fly ashes were found to be greater than 909% for both titania and ash membranes, whilst there was greater variation in the pressure drops in the ash membrane than in the titania at typical gas flows.
