  2. Joule–Thomson effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule–Thomson_effect

    The gas-cooling throttling process is commonly exploited in refrigeration processes such as liquefiers in air separation industrial process. [7] [8] In hydraulics, the warming effect from Joule–Thomson throttling can be used to find internally leaking valves as these will produce heat which can be detected by thermocouple or thermal-imaging ...

  3. Isenthalpic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isenthalpic_process

    The throttling process is a good example of an isoenthalpic process in which significant changes in pressure and temperature can occur to the fluid, and yet the net sum the associated terms in the energy balance is null, thus rendering the transformation isoenthalpic. The lifting of a relief (or safety) valve on a pressure vessel is an example ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy

    Schematic diagram of a throttling in the steady state. Fluid enters the system (dotted rectangle) at point 1 and leaves it at point 2. The mass flow is ṁ . One of the simple applications of the concept of enthalpy is the so-called throttling process, also known as Joule–Thomson expansion. It concerns a steady adiabatic flow of a fluid ...

  5. 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

  6. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    Bandwidth throttling works by limiting (throttling) the speed at which a bandwidth intensive device (a server) receives data or the speed (i.e. bytes or kilobytes per second) of each data response. If these limits are not in place, the device can overload its processing capacity.

  8. Throttle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle

    Examples include the balanced "double beat" type used on Gresley A3 Pacifics. Throttling of a rocket engine means varying the thrust level in-flight. This is not always a requirement; in fact, the thrust of a solid-fuel rocket is not controllable after ignition, and is instead pre-planned by varying the shape of the void down the center of the ...

  9. Isentropic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_process

    A process during which the entropy remains constant is called an isentropic process, written = or =. [12] Some examples of theoretically isentropic thermodynamic devices are pumps, gas compressors, turbines, nozzles, and diffusers.
