Temperature gradient Sentence Examples
- These equations can be made to represent the state of convective equilibrium of the atmosphere, depending on the gas-equation p = pk =RA (6) where 0 denotes the absolute temperature; and then d9 d p R dz - dz (p) n+ 1' so that the temperature-gradient deldz is constant, as in convective equilibrium in (I I). 
- From the gas-equation in general, in the atmosphere n d dp _ I dp 1 de _ d0 de i de (8) z p dz-edz-p-edz-k-edz' which is positive, and the density p diminishes with the ascent, provided the temperature-gradient de/dz does not exceed elk. 
- The thermal conductivity of the substance is the constant ratio of the rate of transmission to the temperature gradient. 
- The measurement of the temperature gradient in the plate generally presents the greatest difficulties. 
- It is the most convenient method, in the case of good conductors, on account of the great facilities which it permits for the measurement of the temperature gradient at different points; but it has the disadvantage that the results depend almost entirely on a knowledge of the external heat loss or emissivity, or, in comparative experiments, on the assumption that it is the same in different cases. 
- The heat transmitted through the plane x is equal per unit area of surface to the product of k by the mean temperature gradient (de /dx) and the interval of time, T - T'. 
- The mean temperature gradient is found by plotting the curves for each day from the daily observations. 
- Since the only cause for these convection currents is the statical instability produced by radiation, and the rapid stifling of radiations within the body produces there a temperature gradient falling very slowly, they would be for the most part extremely slight. 
- The temperature gradient at the confines of the photosphere must certainly ascend sharply at first. 
- For simplicity in the diagram the temperature gradient has been taken as uniform, and the specific heat s= constant, but the total P.D. Advertisement
- One involves experimental and numerical research into the behavior of liquid gallium under the combined action of a temperature gradient and a magnetic field. 
- There also exists a temperature gradient from the bore to the rim of the disk. 
- The heat loss through the cylinder wall leads to a significant temperature gradient in the boundary layer. 
- Additionally the mean temperature gradient after cold exposure was reduced after laser irradiation, while the number of fingers showing prolonged rewarming was unaffected. 
- In either case the growing disturbances will tend to erode the gradient that is producing them, namely the temperature gradient. Advertisement
