  2. Collar (animal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collar_(animal)

    These collars are predominantly used as a training mechanism. There are a few different types of mechanisms which can be incorporated into anti-bark collars: Citronella The citronella collar releases a spray of citronella-scented liquid when the wearer barks. Most dogs find this scent unpleasant and will resist further barking. [4] Static shock

  3. Recirculating aquaculture system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recirculating_aquaculture...

    In aeration air is pumped through an air stone or similar device that creates small bubbles in the water column, this results in a high surface area where oxygen can dissolve into the water. In general due to slow gas dissolution rates and the high air pressure needed to create small bubbles this method is considered inefficient and the water ...

  4. Citronellol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citronellol

    Citronellol is used in perfumes and as a fragrance in cleaning products. In many applications, one of the enantiomers is preferred. It is a component of citronella oil, an insect repellant. [2] Citronellol is used as a raw material for the production of rose oxide.

  5. Cymbopogon nardus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cymbopogon_nardus

    Cymbopogon nardus, common name citronella grass, is a species of perennial aromatic plant from the family Poaceae, originating in tropical Asia. C. nardus cannot be eaten because of its unpalatable nature and is an invasive species that renders pastureland useless, since cattle will starve even in its abundance.

  6. Coandă effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coandă_effect

    While the flow looks very similar to the air flow over the ping pong ball above (if one could see the air flow), the cause is not really the Coandă effect. Here, because it is a flow of water into air, there is little entrainment of the surrounding fluid (the air) into the jet (the stream of water).

  7. Breathability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathability

    Therefore, warm, moist air will flow towards cold, dry air until there is an equilibrium. Due to body heat and moisture there is almost always higher heat and humidity inside a clothing system. This creates a differential pressure forcing the heat and humidity toward the outside. The greater the difference between the heat and humidity inside ...

  8. Cymbopogon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cymbopogon

    Citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus and Cymbopogon winterianus) grow to about 2 metres (6 + 1 ⁄ 2 ft) and have magenta-colored base stems. These species are used for the production of citronella oil , which is used in soaps, as an insect repellent (especially mosquitoes and houseflies) in insect sprays and candles, and aromatherapy.

  9. Mechanically aided scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_aided_scrubber

    Figure 2 - Induced spray scrubber. There are fewer mechanically aided scrubber designs available than liquid- and gas-phase contacting collector designs. Two are more common: centrifugal fan scrubbers and mechanically induced spray scrubbers. A centrifugal-fan scrubber can serve as both an air mover and a collection device. Figure 1 shows such ...
