  2. Conversion of scales of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_scales_of...

    Converting units of temperature differences (also referred to as temperature deltas) is not the same as converting absolute temperature values, and different formulae must be used. To convert a delta temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, the formula is {ΔT} °F = ⁠ 9 / 5 ⁠ {ΔT} °C.

  3. Cooling capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_capacity

    As the target temperature of the refrigerator approaches ambient temperature, without exceeding it, the refrigeration capacity increases thus increasing the refrigerator's COP. The SI unit is watt (W). Another unit common in non-metric regions or sectors is the ton of refrigeration, which describes the amount of water at freezing temperature ...

  4. Absorption refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

    The refrigerator is a small unit placed over a campfire, that can later be used to cool 15 litres (3.3 imp gal; 4.0 US gal) of water to just above freezing for 24 hours in a 30 °C (86 °F) environment. [4]

  5. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    Reducing the output temperature to around 30 °C (86 °F) which requires piped floor, wall or ceiling heating, or oversized water to air heaters. Increasing the input temperature (e.g. by using an oversized ground source or by access to a solar-assisted thermal bank [ 10 ] ).

  6. Scale of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_of_temperature

    The degree Celsius (°C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as a unit to indicate a temperature interval (a difference between two temperatures). From 1744 until 1954, 0 °C was defined as the freezing point of water and 100 °C was defined as the boiling point of water, both at a pressure of one standard atmosphere.

  8. Dilution refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_refrigerator

    A 3 He/ 4 He dilution refrigerator is a cryogenic device that provides continuous cooling to temperatures as low as 2 mK, with no moving parts in the low-temperature region. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The cooling power is provided by the heat of mixing of the helium-3 and helium-4 isotopes.
