  2. Thermal wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_Wheel

    The system operates by working as a thermal storage mass whereby the heat from the air is temporarily stored within the wheel matrix until it is transferred to the cooler air stream. [1] Two types of rotary thermal wheels exist: heat wheels and enthalpy wheels. Though there is a geometrical similarity between heat and enthalpy wheels, there are ...

    The system operates by working as a thermal storage mass whereby the heat from the air is temporarily stored within the wheel matrix until it is transferred to the cooler air stream. [7] Two types of rotary thermal wheels exist: heat wheels and enthalpy wheels. Though there is a geometrical similarity between heat and enthalpy wheels, there are ...

    C p is therefore the slope of a plot of temperature vs. isobaric heat content (or the derivative of a temperature/heat content equation). The SI units for heat capacity are J/(mol·K). Molar heat content of four substances in their designated states above 298.15 K and at 1 atm pressure. CaO(c) and Rh(c) are in their normal standard state of ...

  5. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    The process of heat transfer from one place to another place without the movement of particles is called conduction, such as when placing a hand on a cold glass of water—heat is conducted from the warm skin to the cold glass, but if the hand is held a few inches from the glass, little conduction would occur since air is a poor conductor of heat.

  6. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    Specific enthalpy, symbolized by h, is the sum of the internal (heat) energy of the moist air in question, including the heat of the air and water vapor within. Also called heat content per unit mass. In the approximation of ideal gases, lines of constant enthalpy are parallel to lines of constant WBT. Enthalpy is given in (SI) joules per ...

  7. Thermodynamic equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_equations

    The first and second law of thermodynamics are the most fundamental equations of thermodynamics. They may be combined into what is known as fundamental thermodynamic relation which describes all of the changes of thermodynamic state functions of a system of uniform temperature and pressure.

  8. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    energy/mass of fuel; energy/volume of the fuel; There are two kinds of enthalpy of combustion, called high(er) and low(er) heat(ing) value, depending on how much the products are allowed to cool and whether compounds like H 2 O are allowed to condense. The high heat values are conventionally measured with a bomb calorimeter. Low heat values are ...

  9. Sensible heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensible_heat

    The sensible heat of a thermodynamic process may be calculated as the product of the body's mass (m) with its specific heat capacity (c) and the change in temperature (): =. Joule described sensible heat as the energy measured by a thermometer. Sensible heat and latent heat are not special forms of energy. Rather, they describe exchanges of ...
