  2. Enthalpy–entropy chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy–entropy_chart

    A horizontal line in the diagram represents an isenthalpic process. A vertical line in the h–s chart represents an isentropic process. The process 3–4 in a Rankine cycle is isentropic when the steam turbine is said to be an ideal one. So the expansion process in a turbine can be easily calculated using the h–s chart when the process is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    The underlying psychrometric parameter data for the psychrometric chart and the Mollier diagram are identical. At first glance there is little resemblance between the charts, but if the chart is rotated by ninety degrees and looked at in a mirror the resemblance becomes apparent. The Mollier diagram coordinates are enthalpy and humidity ratio.

  4. Attic ladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attic_ladder

    An attic ladder (US) or loft ladder (UK) is a retractable ladder that is installed into an attic door/access panel. They are used as an inexpensive and compact alternative to having a stairway that ascends to the attic of a building. They are useful in areas with space constraints that would hinder the installation of a standard staircase.

  6. Moisture sorption isotherm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_sorption_isotherm

    Moisture sorption isotherm. The relationship between water content and equilibrium relative humidity of a material can be displayed graphically by a curve, the so-called moisture sorption isotherm. For each humidity value, a sorption isotherm indicates the corresponding water content value at a given temperature. If the composition or quality ...

    This Process Path is a straight horizontal line from state one to state two on a P-V diagram. Figure 2. It is often valuable to calculate the work done in a process. The work done in a process is the area beneath the process path on a P-V diagram. Figure 2 If the process is isobaric, then the work done on the piston is easily calculated.

  8. Stack effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_effect

    The stack effect or chimney effect is the movement of air into and out of buildings through unsealed openings, chimneys, flue-gas stacks, or other purposefully designed openings or containers, resulting from air buoyancy.

  9. Equilibrium moisture content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_moisture_content

    The moisture content of grains is an essential property in food storage. The moisture content that is safe for long-term storage is 12% for corn, sorghum, rice and wheat and 11% for soybean [1] At a constant relative humidity of air, the EMC will drop by about 0.5% for every increase of 10 °C air temperature.
