  2. Noise temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_temperature

    The noise factor (a linear term) is more often expressed as the noise figure (in decibels) using the conversion: = ⁡ The noise figure can also be seen as the decrease in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) caused by passing a signal through a system if the original signal had a noise temperature of 290 K. This is a common way of expressing the noise ...

  3. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR or S/N) is a measure used in science and engineering that compares the level of a desired signal to the level of background noise. SNR is defined as the ratio of signal power to noise power, often expressed in decibels. A ratio higher than 1:1 (greater than 0 dB) indicates more signal than noise.

  4. Sound power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_power

    1 dB = ⁠ 1 / 20 ⁠ ln 10 is the decibel. The commonly used reference sound power in air is [11] = . The proper notations for sound power level using this reference are L W/(1 pW) or L W (re 1 pW), but the suffix notations dB SWL, dB(SWL), dBSWL, or dB SWL are very common, even if they are not accepted by the SI. [12]

  5. Heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

    An international milestone is the heat pump built by Escher Wyss in 1937/38 to replace the wood stoves in the City Hall of Zurich. To avoid noise and vibrations, a recently developed rotary piston compressor was used. This historic heat pump heated the town hall for 63 years until 2001. Only then was it replaced by a new, more efficient heat ...

  6. Sound pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_pressure

    In other media, such as underwater, a reference level of 1 μPa is used. [9] These references are defined in ANSI S1.1-2013. [10] The main instrument for measuring sound levels in the environment is the sound level meter. Most sound level meters provide readings in A, C, and Z-weighted decibels and must meet international standards such as IEC ...

  7. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    The heat pump itself can be improved by increasing the size of the internal heat exchangers, which in turn increases the efficiency (and the cost) relative to the power of the compressor, and also by reducing the system's internal temperature gap over the compressor. Obviously, this latter measure makes some heat pumps unsuitable to produce ...

  8. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    A 0.1% open area will reduce the transmission loss from 40 dB to 30 dB, which is typical of walls where caulking has not been applied effectively [26] Partitions that are inadequately sealed and contain back-to-back electrical boxes, untreated recessed lighting and unsealed pipes offer flanking paths for sound and significant leakage.

  9. Thermoacoustic heat engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoacoustic_heat_engine

    A Rijke tube converts heat into acoustic energy, [3] using natural convection. In about 1887, Lord Rayleigh discussed the possibility of pumping heat with sound. In 1969, Rott reopened the topic. [4] Using the Navier-Stokes equations for fluids, he derived equations specific for thermoacoustics. [5]
