  2. Adiabatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_process

    so the adiabatic constant for this example is about 6.31 Pa m 4.2. The gas is now compressed to a 0.1 L (0.0001 m 3) volume, which we assume happens quickly enough that no heat enters or leaves the gas through the walls. The adiabatic constant remains the same, but with the resulting pressure unknown

  3. Logarithmic mean temperature difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_mean...

    Q is the exchanged heat duty , U is the heat transfer coefficient (watts per kelvin per square meter), A is the exchange area. Note that estimating the heat transfer coefficient may be quite complicated. This holds both for cocurrent flow, where the streams enter from the same end, and for countercurrent flow, where they enter from different ends.

  4. Circulation evaporator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulation_evaporator

    Whilst the single effect design employs a condenser unit to stimulate a condensation action subsequent to vapour inflow from the heat exchanger, the double effect design does a similar duty however the extra component acts to reduce the overall pressure in the system.

  5. Condenser (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(heat_transfer)

    A condenser is designed to transfer heat from a working fluid (e.g. water in a steam power plant) to a secondary fluid or the surrounding air. The condenser relies on the efficient heat transfer that occurs during phase changes, in this case during the condensation of a vapor into a liquid. The vapor typically enters the condenser at a ...

  6. Antoine equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoine_equation

    The Antoine equation is ⁡ = +. where p is the vapor pressure, T is temperature (in °C or in K according to the value of C) and A, B and C are component-specific constants.. The simplified form with C set to zero:

  7. Working fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_fluid

    For fluid power, a working fluid is a gas or liquid that primarily transfers force, motion, or mechanical energy.In hydraulics, water or hydraulic fluid transfers force between hydraulic components such as hydraulic pumps, hydraulic cylinders, and hydraulic motors that are assembled into hydraulic machinery, hydraulic drive systems, etc.

    Some troops leave the battlefield injured. Others return from war with mental wounds. Yet many of the 2 million Iraq and Afghanistan veterans suffer from a condition the Defense Department refuses to acknowledge: Moral injury.
