  2. Effective temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_temperature

    The effective temperature of the Sun (5778 kelvins) is the temperature a black body of the same size must have to yield the same total emissive power.. The effective temperature of a star is the temperature of a black body with the same luminosity per surface area (F Bol) as the star and is defined according to the Stefan–Boltzmann law F Bol = σT eff 4.

  3. Operative temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operative_temperature

    Operative temperature is used in heat transfer and thermal comfort analysis in transportation and buildings. [10] Most psychrometric charts used in HVAC design only show the dry bulb temperature on the x-axis(abscissa), however, it is the operative temperature which is specified on the x-axis of the psychrometric chart illustrated in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55 – Thermal Environmental Conditions ...

  4. Planetary equilibrium temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_equilibrium...

    For example, on Saturn, the effective temperature is approximately 95 K, compared to an equilibrium temperature of about 63 K. [25] [26] This corresponds to a ratio between power emitted and solar power received of ~2.4, indicating a significant internal energy source. [26]

  5. Stefan–Boltzmann law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan–Boltzmann_law

    The temperature Stefan obtained was a median value of previous ones, 1950 °C and the absolute thermodynamic one 2200 K. As 2.57 4 = 43.5, it follows from the law that the temperature of the Sun is 2.57 times greater than the temperature of the lamella, so Stefan got a value of 5430 °C or 5700 K. This was the first sensible value for the ...

  6. Brightness temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brightness_temperature

    Brightness temperature or radiance temperature is a measure of the intensity of electromagnetic energy coming from a source. [1] In particular, it is the temperature at which a black body would have to be in order to duplicate the observed intensity of a grey body object at a frequency ν {\displaystyle \nu } . [ 2 ]

  7. How to Calculate Your Effective Tax Rate - AOL

    The difference between your effective tax rate and your marginal tax rate -- and how they are both calculated -- are questions that many people have come tax time. With tax season well underway ...

  8. NTU method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

    The number of transfer units (NTU) method is used to calculate the rate of heat transfer in heat exchangers (especially parallel flow, counter current, and cross-flow exchangers) when there is insufficient information to calculate the log mean temperature difference (LMTD). Alternatively, this method is useful for determining the expected heat ...

  9. What You Didn't Learn In Sex Ed

    projects.huffingtonpost.com/cliteracy/education?...

    From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
