  2. Energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_storage

    The largest source and the greatest store of renewable energy is provided by hydroelectric dams. A large reservoir behind a dam can store enough water to average the annual flow of a river between dry and wet seasons, and a very large reservoir can store enough water to average the flow of a river between dry and wet years.

  3. Uniporter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniporter

    Facilitated diffusion may occur through three mechanisms: uniport, symport, or antiport. The difference between each mechanism depends on the direction of transport, in which uniport is the only transport not coupled to the transport of another solute. [4] Uniporter carrier proteins work by binding to one molecule or substrate at a time ...

  4. Membrane transport protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_transport_protein

    A carrier is not open simultaneously to both the extracellular and intracellular environments. Either its inner gate is open, or outer gate is open. In contrast, a channel can be open to both environments at the same time, allowing the molecules to diffuse without interruption. Carriers have binding sites, but pores and channels do not.

  5. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    If the fluid is flowing out of a reservoir, the sum of all forms of energy is the same because in a reservoir the energy per unit volume (the sum of pressure and gravitational potential ρ g h) is the same everywhere. [6]: Example 3.5 and p.116 Bernoulli's principle can also be derived directly from Isaac Newton's second Law of Motion. When ...

  6. Thermal conductivity detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity_detector

    This detector senses changes in the thermal conductivity of the column eluent and compares it to a reference flow of carrier gas. Since most compounds have a thermal conductivity much less than that of the common carrier gases of helium or hydrogen, when an analyte elutes from the column the effluent thermal conductivity is reduced, and a ...

  7. Unconventional (oil and gas) reservoir - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_(oil_and...

    Schematic unconventional reservoir classification expressed as fluid energy vs flow potential based on initials without stimulation. Unconventional (oil and gas) reservoirs, or unconventional resources (resource plays) are accumulations where oil and gas phases are tightly bound to the rock fabric by strong capillary forces, requiring specialized measures for evaluation and extraction.

    Things between Penn State and Notre Dame should be a little slower, a little more plodding and a lot more reliant on the play of two elite defenses. Penn State has allowed 24 points through two ...

  9. Facilitated diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facilitated_diffusion

    Facilitated diffusion in cell membrane, showing ion channels and carrier proteins. Facilitated diffusion (also known as facilitated transport or passive-mediated transport) is the process of spontaneous passive transport (as opposed to active transport) of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins.
