  2. Tyndall's bar breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyndall's_bar_breaker

    During the heating phase the thermal expansion of the rod (b) is compensated by tightly fastening the nut (a). Taking away the flame starts the cooling phase. Typically the bar (c) breaks within a few minutes with a loud bang or it is at least deformed significantly. Performing Tyndall's bar breaker experiment

  3. Dilution refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_refrigerator

    Inside the chamber, the 3 He is diluted as it flows from the concentrated phase through the phase boundary into the dilute phase. The heat necessary for the dilution is the useful cooling power of the refrigerator, as the process of moving the 3 He through the phase boundary is endothermic and removes heat from the mixing chamber environment.

  4. Cooling curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_curve

    A cooling curve of naphthalene from liquid to solid. A cooling curve is a line graph that represents the change of phase of matter, typically from a gas to a solid or a liquid to a solid. The independent variable (X-axis) is time and the dependent variable (Y-axis) is temperature. [1] Below is an example of a cooling curve used in castings.

  5. Phase rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_rule

    In thermodynamics, the phase rule is a general principle governing multi-component, multi-phase systems in thermodynamic equilibrium.For a system without chemical reactions, it relates the number of freely varying intensive properties (F) to the number of components (C), the number of phases (P), and number of ways of performing work on the system (N): [1] [2] [3]: 123–125

  6. QCD matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QCD_matter

    Laboratory experiments suggests that the inevitable interaction with heavy noble gas nuclei in the upper atmosphere would lead to quark–gluon plasma formation. Quark matter with baryon number over about 300 may be more stable than nuclear matter. This form of baryonic matter could possibly form a continent of stability. [10]

  7. Magnetic refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_refrigeration

    Since the system is now insulated when the magnetic field is switched off, the process is adiabatic, i.e., the system can no longer exchange energy with its surroundings (the heat sink), and its temperature decreases below its initial value, that of the heat sink. The operation of a standard ADR proceeds roughly as follows.

    Cooling down the body is a crucial part of any workout routine, as it helps the body transition from an active state back to a resting state. After intense physical activity, the heart rate is ...

  9. Helium cryogenics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium_cryogenics

    Experiments involving neutron bombardment correlate with the existence of BEC’s, thereby confirming the source of liquid helium’s unique properties such as super-fluidity and heat transfer. [6] [7] A schematic of a helium cooling system; heat flow is represented by red arrows and helium flow is by black arrows.
