  2. Dynamic frequency scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_frequency_scaling

    Dynamic frequency scaling (also known as CPU throttling) is a power management technique in computer architecture whereby the frequency of a microprocessor can be automatically adjusted "on the fly" depending on the actual needs, to conserve power and reduce the amount of heat generated by the chip.

  3. Flash evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_evaporation

    If the throttling valve or device is located at the entry into a pressure vessel so that the flash evaporation occurs within the vessel, then the vessel is often referred to as a flash drum. [1] [2] If the saturated liquid is a single-component liquid (for example, propane or liquid ammonia), a part of the liquid immediately "flashes" into vapor.

  4. Science fair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_fair

    A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.

  5. Throttle (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle_(disambiguation)

    CPU throttling, computer hardware speed control, also known as dynamic frequency scaling; Bandwidth throttling, used to control the bandwidth that a network application can use; Throttling process (computing), software speed control

  6. List of fusion experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fusion_experiments

    Toroidal machines can be axially symmetric, like the tokamak and the reversed field pinch (RFP), or asymmetric, like the stellarator.The additional degree of freedom gained by giving up toroidal symmetry might ultimately be usable to produce better confinement, but the cost is complexity in the engineering, the theory, and the experimental diagnostics.

  7. Joule–Thomson effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule–Thomson_effect

    In thermodynamics, the Joule–Thomson effect (also known as the Joule–Kelvin effect or Kelvin–Joule effect) describes the temperature change of a real gas or liquid (as differentiated from an ideal gas) when it is expanding; typically caused by the pressure loss from flow through a valve or porous plug while keeping it insulated so that no heat is exchanged with the environment.

  8. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    The difference is that bandwidth throttling regulates a bandwidth intensive device (such as a server) by limiting how much data that device can receive from each node / client or can output or can send for each response. Bandwidth capping on the other hand limits the total transfer capacity, upstream or downstream, of data over a medium.

  9. Google Science Fair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Science_Fair

    The Google Science Fair was a worldwide (excluding Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Myanmar/Burma, Syria, Zimbabwe and any other U.S. sanctioned country [1]) online science competition sponsored by Google, Lego, Virgin Galactic, National Geographic and Scientific American. [2] [3] [4] It was an annual event spanning the years 2011 through 2018.
