These techniques allow monitoring temperature within tissues without introducing a sensing element. [2] In the field of reactive flows (e.g., combustion, plasmas), laser induced fluorescence (LIF), CARS, and laser absorption spectroscopy have been exploited to measure temperature inside engines, gas-turbines, shock-tubes, synthesis reactors [3] etc
A theoretical understanding of temperature in a hard-sphere model of a gas can be obtained from the Kinetic theory. Maxwell and Boltzmann developed a kinetic theory that yields a fundamental understanding of temperature in gases. [78] This theory also explains the ideal gas law and the observed heat capacity of monatomic (or 'noble') gases. [79 ...
Quizlet was founded in October 2005 by Andrew Sutherland, who at the time was a 15-year old student, [2] and released to the public in January 2007. [3] Quizlet's primary products include digital flash cards , matching games , practice electronic assessments , and live quizzes.
[2] The dew point is affected by the air's humidity. The more moisture the air contains, the higher its dew point. [3] When the temperature is below the freezing point of water, the dew point is called the frost point, as frost is formed via deposition rather than condensation. [4] In liquids, the analog to the dew point is the cloud point.
Core temperature, also called core body temperature, is the operating temperature of an organism, specifically in deep structures of the body such as the liver, in comparison to temperatures of peripheral tissues. Core temperature is normally maintained within a narrow range so that essential enzymatic reactions can occur.
Residual magnetic flux density or B r changes with temperature and it is one of the important characteristics of magnet performance. Some applications, such as inertial gyroscopes and traveling-wave tubes (TWTs), need to have constant field over a wide temperature range. The reversible temperature coefficient (RTC) of B r is defined as:
Temperature lag, also known as thermal inertia, is an important factor in diurnal temperature variation. Peak daily temperature generally occurs after noon, as air keeps absorbing net heat for a period of time from morning through noon and some time thereafter. Similarly, minimum daily temperature generally occurs substantially after midnight ...
Thermodynamic temperature is a quantity defined in thermodynamics as distinct from kinetic theory or statistical mechanics.. Historically, thermodynamic temperature was defined by Lord Kelvin in terms of a macroscopic relation between thermodynamic work and heat transfer as defined in thermodynamics, but the kelvin was redefined by international agreement in 2019 in terms of phenomena that are ...
