  2. Evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporation

    Evaporation is an essential part of the water cycle. The sun (solar energy) drives evaporation of water from oceans, lakes, moisture in the soil, and other sources of water. In hydrology, evaporation and transpiration (which involves evaporation within plant stomata) are collectively termed evapotranspiration. Evaporation of water occurs when ...

  3. Jōhatsu - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jōhatsu

    "evaporation") or jouhatsu refers to the people in Japan who purposely vanish from their established lives without a trace. [1] This phenomenon can be seen all over the world, such as the United States, China, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and Germany. [1] [2] However, it is likely more prevalent in Japan, given certain cultural factors. [2] [3]

  4. Pan evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_evaporation

    Pan evaporation is a measurement that combines or integrates the effects of several climate elements: temperature, humidity, rain fall, drought dispersion, solar radiation, and wind. Evaporation is greatest on hot, windy, dry, sunny days; and is greatly reduced when clouds block the sun and when air is cool, calm, and humid. [ 1 ]

  5. Evapotranspiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evapotranspiration

    Evaporation: the movement of water directly to the air from sources such as the soil and water bodies. It can be affected by factors including heat, humidity, solar radiation and wind speed. [6]: Ch. 1, "Evaporation" Transpiration: the movement of water from root systems, through a plant, and exit into the air as water vapor.

  6. Clip art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_art

    Examples of computer clip art, from Openclipart. Clip art (also clipart, clip-art) is a type of graphic art. Pieces are pre-made images used to illustrate any medium. Today, clip art is used extensively and comes in many forms, both electronic and printed. However, most clip art today is created, distributed, and used in a digital form.

  7. Transpiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transpiration

    Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. It is a passive process that requires no energy expense by the plant. [ 1 ]

  8. Multiple-effect evaporator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple-effect_evaporator

    Multiple-effect evaporation commonly uses sensible heat in the condensate to preheat liquor to be flashed. In practice the design liquid flow paths can be somewhat complicated in order to extract the most recoverable heat and to obtain the highest evaporation rates from the equipment.

  9. Vacuum evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_evaporation

    The vacuum evaporation treatment process consists of reducing the interior pressure of the evaporation chamber below atmospheric pressure. This reduces the boiling point of the liquid to be evaporated, thereby reducing or eliminating the need for heat in both the boiling and condensation processes.
