    where is a function of the temperature T and a typical wood dimension L and has units of time. The typical wood dimension is roughly the smallest value of (,, /) which are the radial, tangential and longitudinal dimensions respectively, in inches, with the longitudinal dimension divided by ten because water diffuses about 10 times more rapidly ...

  3. Enthalpy of sublimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_sublimation

    In thermodynamics, the enthalpy of sublimation, or heat of sublimation, is the heat required to sublimate (change from solid to gas) one mole of a substance at a given combination of temperature and pressure, usually standard temperature and pressure (STP). It is equal to the cohesive energy of the solid.

    The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Residential Wood Heaters, which came into effect on May 15, 2020.The EPA initiated wood stove emissions standards in 1988 to mitigate air pollution, setting the initial limits at 7.5 grams per hour for non-catalytic and 4.1 grams for catalytic stoves.

  5. Sublimation (phase transition) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimation_(phase_transition)

    Solid carbon dioxide sublimes rapidly along the solid-gas boundary (sublimation point) below the triple point (e.g., at the temperature of −78.5 °C, at atmospheric pressure), whereas its melting into liquid CO 2 can occur along the solid-liquid boundary (melting point) at pressures and temperatures above the triple point (i.e., 5.1 atm, − ...

    The result is a very efficient wood kiln firing one cubic metre of ceramics with one cubic meter of wood. [ citation needed ] Microwave assisted firing : this technique combines microwave energy with more conventional energy sources, such as radiant gas or electric heating, to process ceramic materials to the required high temperatures.

  7. Outgassing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outgassing

    Outgassing is a possible source of many tenuous atmospheres of terrestrial planets or moons. [6] Many materials are volatile relative to the extreme vacuum of outer space, and may evaporate or even boil at ambient temperature.

    Visions – a brand of transparent stove top cookware originally created by Corning France and released in Europe during the late 1970s and in other markets beginning a short time later. West Bend Company; Wonder Pot – an Israeli invention for baking on top of a gas stove rather than in an oven. It consists of three parts: an aluminium pot ...

  9. Pyrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolysis

    Pyrolysis liquids from slow pyrolysis of bark and hemp have been tested for their antifungal activity against wood decaying fungi, showing potential to substitute the current wood preservatives [99] while further tests are still required. However, their ecotoxicity is very variable and while some are less toxic than current wood preservatives ...
