  3. Specific energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_energy

    Kinetic energy per unit mass: ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ v 2, where v is the speed (giving J/kg when v is in m/s). See also kinetic energy per unit mass of projectiles . Potential energy with respect to gravity, close to Earth, per unit mass: gh , where g is the acceleration due to gravity ( standardized as ≈9.8 m/s 2 ) and h is the height above the ...

  4. Burnup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnup

    In nuclear power technology, burnup is a measure of how much energy is extracted from a given amount of nuclear fuel [1].It may be measured as the fraction of fuel atoms that underwent fission in %FIMA (fissions per initial heavy metal atom) [2] or %FIFA (fissions per initial fissile atom) [3] as well as the actual energy released per mass of initial fuel in gigawatt-days/metric ton of heavy ...

  5. Energy density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_density

    The density of thermal energy contained in the core of a light-water reactor (pressurized water reactor (PWR) or boiling water reactor (BWR)) of typically 1 GW (1000 MW electrical corresponding to ≈ 3000 MW thermal) is in the range of 10 to 100 MW of thermal energy per cubic meter of cooling water depending on the location considered in the ...

    The water was flowing past the inner pipe at circa 4 ms −1 and the cladding was subjected to heating at 2200 to 4900 °C s −1 to simulate an RIA. It was found that as the temperature of the cladding increased the rate of heat transfer from the surface of the cladding increased at first as the water boiled at nucleation sites.

  7. Earth's energy budget - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_energy_budget

    Earth's energy budget (in W/m 2) determines the climate. It is the balance of incoming and outgoing radiation and can be measured by satellites. The Earth's energy imbalance is the "net absorbed" energy amount and grew from +0.6 W/m 2 (2009 est. [8]) to above +1.0 W/m 2 in 2019. [23

  8. Molar ionization energies of the elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_ionization_energies...

    These tables list values of molar ionization energies, measured in kJ⋅mol −1. This is the energy per mole necessary to remove electrons from gaseous atoms or atomic ions. The first molar ionization energy applies to the neutral atoms.

  9. Nuclear weapon yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_weapon_yield

    The paper is moved 2.5 meters by the wave, so the effect of the Trinity device is to displace a hemispherical shell of air of volume 2.5 m × 2π(16 km) 2. Multiply by 1 atm to get an energy of 4.1 × 10 14 J ~ 100 kT TNT. [quantify] This photograph of the Trinity blast, captured by Berlyn Brixner, was used by G. I. Taylor to estimate its yield.
