  2. Atwater system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atwater_system

    The Atwater system, [1] named after Wilbur Olin Atwater, or derivatives of this system are used for the calculation of the available energy of foods.The system was developed largely from the experimental studies of Atwater and his colleagues in the later part of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut.

  3. Hydrophobicity scales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobicity_scales

    The mobility of water molecules in the "cage" (or solvation shell) is strongly restricted. This leads to significant losses in translational and rotational entropy of water molecules and makes the process unfavorable in terms of free energy of the system.

  4. Water heat recycling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heat_recycling

    Installation of a double-walled copper-on-copper heat exchanger in a vertical section of the master drain line in a Canadian home (2007) Water heat recycling (also known as drain water heat recovery, waste water heat recovery, greywater heat recovery, [citation needed] or sometimes shower water heat recovery [citation needed]) is the use of a heat exchanger to recover energy and reuse heat ...

  5. NTU method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

    Here, is the molecular weight of water (vapor), is the average molecular weight of air, is the partial pressure of air (not including the partial pressure of water vapor in an air mixture) and can be approximated by knowing the partial pressure of water vapor at the inlet, before dehumidification occurs, ,. From here, all of the previously ...

  6. Equilibrium unfolding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_unfolding

    where is the stability of the protein in water and [D] is the denaturant concentration. Thus the analysis of denaturation data with this model requires 7 parameters: Δ G w {\displaystyle \Delta G_{w}} , Δ n {\displaystyle \Delta n} , k , and the slopes and intercepts of the folded and unfolded state baselines.

  7. Biological value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_value

    A ratio of nitrogen incorporated into the body over nitrogen absorbed gives a measure of protein "usability" – the BV. Unlike some measures of protein usability, biological value does not take into account how readily the protein can be digested and absorbed (largely by the small intestine). This is reflected in the experimental methods used ...

  8. BMI vs. Body Fat: What's More Important? - AOL

    www.aol.com/bmi-vs-body-fat-whats-105700871.html

    BMI. BMI measures a person’s weight compared to their height. It’s a simple division equation. Since it’s such a quick and easy way to get a rough idea of whether you have a healthy weight ...

  9. Energy conversion efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_conversion_efficiency

    For a water electrolysis unit operating at a constant temperature of 25 °C without the input of any additional heat energy, electrical energy would have to be supplied at a rate equivalent of the enthalpy (heat) of reaction or 285.830 kJ (0.07940 kWh) per gram mol of water consumed. [6] It would operate at a cell voltage of 1.48 V.
