  2. Stemflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stemflow

    Stem flow measurement on a silver birch. There are a variety of ways stemflow volume is measured in the field. The most common direct measurement currently used is the bonding of bisected PVC or other plastic tubing around the circumference of the tree trunk, connected and funneled into a graduated cylinder for manual or a tipping bucket rain gauge for automatic collection.

Thévenin theorem A theorem which states that any network of current sources, voltage sources and resistors can be simplified to an equivalent network with only a voltage source and series impedance; the dual of Norton's Theorem. third rail

  4. Losses in steam turbines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Losses_in_steam_turbines

    The steam passing through the last stage of turbine has a high velocity and a large moisture content. The liquid particles have lesser velocity than that of vapor particles; hence, the liquid particles obstruct the flow of vapor particles in the last stage of the turbine, and therefore, a part of kinetic energy of the steam is lost.

  7. Plume (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plume_(fluid_dynamics)

    Plume shapes can be influenced by flow in the ambient fluid (for example, if local wind blowing in the same direction as the plume results in a co-flowing jet). This usually causes a plume which has initially been 'buoyancy-dominated' to become 'momentum-dominated' (this transition is usually predicted by a dimensionless number called the ...

  9. Mist lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mist_lift

    The Mist lift, Mist flow or Steam lift pump is a gas lift technique of lifting water used in a form of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) where water falls to operate a hydro-electric turbine. The water is pumped from the level it drops to using rising steam which is combined into a multiphase flow. [ 1 ]
