  2. Wolfe cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfe_Cycle

    Wolfe cycle. The Wolfe Cycle is a methanogenic pathway used by archaea; the archaeon takes H 2 and CO 2 and cycles them through a various intermediates to create methane. [1] The Wolfe Cycle is modified in different orders and classes of archaea as per the resource availability and requirements for each species, but it retains the same basic pathway. [1]

    Johann Rudolf Wolf (7 July 1816 – 6 December 1893) was a Swiss astronomer and mathematician best known for his research on sunspots. Wolf was born in Fällanden , near Zurich. He studied at the universities of Zurich, Vienna, and Berlin.

  4. Thermodynamic cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_cycle

    In the process of passing through a cycle, the working fluid (system) may convert heat from a warm source into useful work, and dispose of the remaining heat to a cold sink, thereby acting as a heat engine. Conversely, the cycle may be reversed and use work to move heat from a cold source and transfer it to a warm sink thereby acting as a heat ...

  5. The amount of water needed varies by person, weight, diet, activity level, clothing, and the ambient heat and humidity. Water does not actually need to be drunk in pure form, and can be derived from liquids such as juices, tea, milk, soups, etc., and from foods including fruits and vegetables. [347] [348]

  6. Gas mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_mark

    The earliest printed evidence of use of "gas mark" (with no other terms between the two words) appears to date from 1958. [1] However, the manufacturers of the "New World" gas ranges in the mid-1930s gave away recipe books for use with their cooker, and the "Regulo" was the gas regulator. [2] The book has no reference to degrees.

  7. Organic Rankine cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_Rankine_cycle

    T-s diagram for the ideal/real ORC. The working principle of the organic Rankine cycle is the same as that of the Rankine cycle: the working fluid is pumped to a boiler where it is evaporated, passed through an expansion device (turbine, [3] screw, [4] scroll, [5] or other expander), and then through a condenser heat exchanger where it is finally re-condensed.

  8. Wolf - Wikipedia

    The wolf is the largest wild extant member of the family Canidae, and is further distinguished from other Canis species by its less pointed ears and muzzle, as well as a shorter torso and a longer tail. The wolf is nonetheless related closely enough to smaller Canis species, such as the coyote and the golden jackal, to produce fertile hybrids ...
