  2. Estrous cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estrous_cycle

    A mare may be in heat for 4 to 10 days, followed by approximately 14 days in diestrus. Thus, a cycle may be short, totaling approximately 3 weeks. [21] Horses mate in spring and summer; autumn is a transition time, and anestrus occurs during winter.

    The ability to control the estrus cycle is much easier today because of products that safely assist in aligning heat cycles. Some examples of products are PG600 , CIDRs, Estrumate and Folltropin V. These products contain progesterone which will bring on the induction of estrus in ewes (sheep) during seasonal anestrus.

  4. Pinch analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinch_analysis

    HeatIT - Free (light) version of Pinch Analysis software that runs in Excel - developed by Pinchco, a consultancy company offering expert advice on energy related matters; Simulis Pinch - Tool from ProSim SA that can be used directly in Excel and that is dedicated to the diagnosis and the energy integration of the processes.

  5. NTU method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

    Here, is the overall heat transfer coefficient, is the total heat transfer area, and is the minimum heat capacity rate. To better understand where this definition of NTU comes from, consider the following heat transfer energy balance, which is an extension of the energy balance above:

  6. Horse breeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_breeding

    The estrous cycle (also spelled oestrous) controls when a mare is sexually receptive toward a stallion, and helps to physically prepare the mare for conception. It generally occurs during the spring and summer months, although some mares may be sexually receptive into the late fall, and is controlled by the photoperiod (length of the day), the ...

    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 ...

  8. Estrous synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estrous_synchronization

    Estrous synchronisation is the process of targeting female mammals to come to heat within a short time frame (36 to 96 hours). This is achieved through the use of one or more hormones. Methods to improve our ability to synchronize the reproductive process and result in the ‘timed insemination’ without the detection of heat have been developed.

  9. Temperature–entropy diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature–entropy_diagram

    Q H = W + Q C = heat exchanged with the hot reservoir. η = W / (Q C + Q H) = thermal efficiency of the cycle If the cycle moves in a clockwise sense, then it is a heat engine that outputs work; if the cycle moves in a counterclockwise sense, it is a heat pump that takes in work and moves heat Q H from the cold reservoir to the hot reservoir.
