    Hygroscopy is the phenomenon of attracting and holding water molecules via either absorption or adsorption from the surrounding ... While the hilar valve is open (i.e ...

  3. Brake fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid

    Brake fluids must not corrode the metals used inside components such as calipers, wheel cylinders, master cylinders and ABS control valves. They must also protect against corrosion as moisture enters the system. Additives (corrosion inhibitors) are added to the base fluid to accomplish this.

  4. Heat and moisture exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_and_Moisture_Exchanger

    The device consists of a combination of HME and an automatic speaking valve. The valve closes automatically when exhaling air for speaking, enabling the pulmonary air to be diverted through the tracheoesophageal voice prosthesis into the esophagus. It reopens automatically when exhalation decreases.

  5. Hygrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygrometer

    A hygrometer is an instrument which measures the humidity of air or some other gas, that is, how much water vapor it contains. [1] Humidity measurement instruments usually rely on measurements of some other quantities such as temperature, pressure, mass, and mechanical or electrical changes in a substance as moisture is absorbed.

  6. Hygroscopic cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopic_cycle

    The Hygroscopic cycle is a thermodynamic cycle converting thermal energy into mechanical power by the means of a steam turbine.It is similar to the Rankine cycle using water as the motive fluid but with the novelty of introducing salts and their hygroscopic properties for the condensation.

  7. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    Although the principles of psychrometry apply to any physical system consisting of gas-vapor mixtures, the most common system of interest is the mixture of water vapor and air, because of its application in heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning and meteorology.

  9. Automatic bleeding valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_bleeding_valve

    Brass-bodied float valve. An automatic bleeding valve or air release valve (ARV) is a plumbing valve used to automatically release trapped air from a heating system. Air, or other gas, may collect within plumbing. For water delivery systems to taps and basins, particularly with good main supply pressure, this air is usually flushed through with ...
