  2. 7-demicubic honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7-demicubic_honeycomb

    The vertex arrangement of the 7-demicubic honeycomb is the D 7 lattice. [1] The 84 vertices of the rectified 7-orthoplex vertex figure of the 7-demicubic honeycomb reflect the kissing number 84 of this lattice. [2] The best known is 126, from the E 7 lattice and the 3 31 honeycomb. The D + 7 packing (also called D 2 7) can be constructed by the ...

  3. Honey extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey_extraction

    Honey extraction is the central process in beekeeping of removing honey from honeycomb so that it is isolated in a pure liquid form. Normally, the honey is stored by honey bees in their beeswax honeycomb; in framed bee hives, the honey is stored on a wooden structure called a frame.

  4. Leidenfrost effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leidenfrost_effect

    Leidenfrost droplet Demonstration of the Leidenfrost effect Leidenfrost effect of a single drop of water. The Leidenfrost effect is a physical phenomenon in which a liquid, close to a solid surface of another body that is significantly hotter than the liquid's boiling point, produces an insulating vapor layer that keeps the liquid from boiling rapidly.

  5. Honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeycomb

    Honeycomb in the "supers" that are not used for brood (e.g. by the placement of a queen excluder) stays light-colored. Numerous wasps , especially Polistinae and Vespinae , construct hexagonal prism-packed combs made of paper instead of wax; in some species (such as Brachygastra mellifica ), honey is stored in the nest, thus technically forming ...

  6. 7-cubic honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7-cubic_honeycomb

    The 7-cubic honeycomb or hepteractic honeycomb is the only regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 7-space. It is analogous to the square tiling of the plane and to the cubic honeycomb of 3-space. There are many different Wythoff constructions of this honeycomb.

  7. Endothermic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endothermic_process

    An endothermic process is a chemical or physical process that absorbs heat from its surroundings. [1] In terms of thermodynamics, it is a thermodynamic process with an increase in the enthalpy H (or internal energy U) of the system. [2] In an endothermic process, the heat that a system absorbs is thermal energy transfer into the

  8. Heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat

    An example is this 1720 quote from the English philosopher John Locke: Heat, is a very brisk agitation of the insensible parts of the object, which produces in us that sensation from whence we denominate the object hot; so what in our sensation is heat, in the object is nothing but motion. This appears by the way, whereby heat is produc’d ...

  9. Cyclotruncated 7-simplex honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotruncated_7-simplex...

    In seven-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 7-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). The tessellation fills space by 7-simplex, truncated 7-simplex, bitruncated 7-simplex, and tritruncated 7-simplex facets. These facet types occur in proportions of 1:1:1:1 respectively in the whole honeycomb.
