  2. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_point...

    In thermodynamics, a critical point (or critical state) is the end point of a phase equilibrium curve. One example is the liquid–vapor critical point, the end point of the pressure–temperature curve that designates conditions under which a liquid and its vapor can coexist.

    Roblox (/ ˈ r oʊ b l ɒ k s / ⓘ, ROH-bloks) is an online game platform and game creation system developed by Roblox Corporation that allows users to program and play games created by themselves or other users. It was created by David Baszucki and Erik Cassel in 2004, and released to the public in 2006. As of August 2020, the platform has ...

  4. Supercritical carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_carbon_dioxide

    Environmentally beneficial, low-cost substitutes for rigid thermoplastic and fired ceramic are made using s CO 2 as a chemical reagent.The s CO 2 in these processes is reacted with the alkaline components of fully hardened hydraulic cement or gypsum plaster to form various carbonates. [12]

  5. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    The difference between the two heating values depends on the chemical composition of the fuel. In the case of pure carbon or carbon monoxide, the two heating values are almost identical, the difference being the sensible heat content of carbon dioxide between 150 °C and 25 °C ( sensible heat exchange causes a change of temperature, while ...

    Vanilla sex is also a term for whatever is stereotypically normal in any given period of time or social circle.” So if you don't have a drawer (or closet) full of toys or a Samantha Jones-type ...

  7. Transcritical cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcritical_cycle

    A transcritical cycle is a closed thermodynamic cycle where the working fluid goes through both subcritical and supercritical states. In particular, for power cycles the working fluid is kept in the liquid region during the compression phase and in vapour and/or supercritical conditions during the expansion phase.

  8. Residual entropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_entropy

    Residual entropy is the difference in entropy between a non-equilibrium state and crystal state of a substance close to absolute zero.This term is used in condensed matter physics to describe the entropy at zero kelvin of a glass or plastic crystal referred to the crystal state, whose entropy is zero according to the third law of thermodynamics.

    Best rational approximants for π (green circle), e (blue diamond), ϕ (pink oblong), (√3)/2 (grey hexagon), 1/√2 (red octagon) and 1/√3 (orange triangle) calculated from their continued fraction expansions, plotted as slopes y/x with errors from their true values (black dashes)
