  2. Countercurrent exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countercurrent_exchange

    Counter Current Decantation (CCD) is used in some facilities to extract water, totally clear of Uranium. Exchange current decantation depicted in centrifugal extractors as 1st stage Zippe-type centrifuges use countercurrent multiplication between rising and falling convection currents to reduce the number of stages needed in a cascade.

  3. Countercurrent distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countercurrent_distribution

    Countercurrent distribution is a separation process that is founded on the principles of liquid–liquid extraction where a chemical compound is distributed (partitioned) between two immiscible liquid phases (oil and water for example) according to its relative solubility in the two phases.

  4. NTU method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

    The number of transfer units (NTU) method is used to calculate the rate of heat transfer in heat exchangers (especially parallel flow, counter current, and cross-flow exchangers) when there is insufficient information to calculate the log mean temperature difference (LMTD). Alternatively, this method is useful for determining the expected heat ...

  5. Countercurrent chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countercurrent_chromatography

    A high-performance countercurrent chromatography system. Countercurrent chromatography (CCC, also counter-current chromatography) is a form of liquid–liquid chromatography that uses a liquid stationary phase that is held in place by inertia of the molecules composing the stationary phase accelerating toward the center of a centrifuge due to centripetal force [1] and is used to separate ...

  6. Exchange interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_interaction

    In chemistry and physics, the exchange interaction is a quantum mechanical constraint on the states of indistinguishable particles.While sometimes called an exchange force, or, in the case of fermions, Pauli repulsion, its consequences cannot always be predicted based on classical ideas of force. [1]

  7. Charged current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charged_current

    Because exchange of W bosons involves a transfer of electric charge (as well as a transfer of weak isospin, while weak hypercharge is not transferred), it is known as "charged current". By contrast, exchanges of Z bosons involve no transfer of electrical charge, so it is referred to as a "neutral current". In the latter case, the word "current ...

  8. Pair production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_production

    Pair production is the creation of a subatomic particle and its antiparticle from a neutral boson.Examples include creating an electron and a positron, a muon and an antimuon, or a proton and an antiproton.

  9. Reference electrode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_electrode

    Standard hydrogen electrode scheme: 1) Platinized platinum electrode, 2) Hydrogen gas, 3) Acid solution with an activity of H + = 1 mol/L, 4) Hydroseal for prevention of oxygen interference, 5) Reservoir via which the second half-element of the galvanic cell should be attached.
