  2. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    The higher heating value takes into account the latent heat of vaporization of water in the combustion products, and is useful in calculating heating values for fuels where condensation of the reaction products is practical (e.g., in a gas-fired boiler used for space heat). In other words, HHV assumes all the water component is in liquid state ...

  3. Wobbe index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobbe_index

    The Wobbe index is expressed in MJ/Nm³ (where 'Nm³' indicates'm³ in Normal conditions), or sometimes in BTU/scf.In the case of natural gas (molar mass 17 g/mol), the typical heating value is around 39 MJ/Nm³ (1,050 BTU/scf) and the specific gravity is approximately 0.59, giving a typical Wobbe index of 51 MJ/Nm³ (1,367 BTU/scf).

  4. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    The heat that is added to the gas goes only partly into heating the gas, while the rest is transformed into the mechanical work performed by the piston. In the first, constant-volume case (locked piston), there is no external motion, and thus no mechanical work is done on the atmosphere; C V is used.

    Gas prices are again on the rise, and the extreme heat being felt in the Northern Hemisphere is partly to blame. Nationally, the price of a gallon of gasoline rose by 4 cents on Tuesday, the ...

  7. Latent heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_heat

    Latent heat can be understood as hidden energy which is supplied or extracted to change the state of a substance without changing its temperature or pressure. This includes the latent heat of fusion (solid to liquid), the latent heat of vaporization (liquid to gas) and the latent heat of sublimation (solid to gas). [1] [2]

  8. Energy conversion efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_conversion_efficiency

    For a water electrolysis unit operating at a constant temperature of 25 °C without the input of any additional heat energy, electrical energy would have to be supplied at a rate equivalent of the enthalpy (heat) of reaction or 285.830 kJ (0.07940 kWh) per gram mol of water consumed. [6] It would operate at a cell voltage of 1.48 V.
