  2. Trace heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

    Electric heat tracing, heat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels using heat tracing cables. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe.

  3. Differential scanning calorimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_scanning...

    With Heat-flux DSC, the changes in heat flow are calculated by integrating the ΔT ref - curve. For this kind of experiment, a sample and a reference crucible are placed on a sample holder with integrated temperature sensors for temperature measurement of the crucibles. This arrangement is located in a temperature-controlled oven.

  4. Trace diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_diagram

    A framed trace diagram is a trace diagram together with a partition of the degree-1 vertices V 1 into two disjoint ordered collections called the inputs and the outputs. The "graph" underlying a trace diagram may have the following special features, which are not always included in the standard definition of a graph:

  5. Skin effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

    Refer to the diagram below showing the inner and outer conductors of a coaxial cable. Since skin effect causes a current at high frequencies to flow mainly at the surface of a conductor, it can be seen that this will reduce the magnetic field inside the wire, that is, beneath the depth at which the bulk of the current flows.

  6. Thermodynamic diagrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_diagrams

    The three diagrams are constructed from the P–alpha diagram by using appropriate coordinate transformations. Not a thermodynamic diagram in a strict sense, since it does not display the energy–area equivalence, is the Stüve diagram; But due to its simpler construction it is preferred in education.

  7. Pinch analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinch_analysis

    Temperature vs. heat load diagram of hot stream (H 2 O entering at 20 bar, 473.15 K, and 4 kg/s) and cold stream (R-11 entering at 18 bar, 303.15 K, and 5 kg/s) in a counter-flow heat exchanger. "Pinch" is the point of closest approach between the hot and cold streams in the T vs. H diagram.

  8. Thermodynamic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_process

    The PV diagram is a particularly useful visualization of a quasi-static process, because the area under the curve of a process is the amount of work done by the system during that process. Thus work is considered to be a process variable , as its exact value depends on the particular path taken between the start and end points of the process.

  9. Thermodynamic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_system

    The presence of reactants in an open beaker is an example of an open system. Here the boundary is an imaginary surface enclosing the beaker and reactants. It is named closed, if borders are impenetrable for substance, but allow transit of energy in the form of heat, and isolated, if there is no exchange of heat and substances. The open system ...
