Joule-Thomson effect

This principle was then known as the Joule-Thomson effect.

This liquefaction takes place by the Joule-Thomson effect.

After expanding through the nozzle, the air's temperature would drop greatly (due to the Joule-Thomson effect).

Recent advances in technology have allowed for the use of argon gas to drive ice formation using a principle known as the Joule-Thomson effect.

This temperature change is known as the Joule-Thomson effect, and is exploited in the liquefaction of gases.

The Joule-Thomson effect cannot be described in the theory of ideal gases, in which interactions between particles are ignored.

With that in mind, the following table explains when the Joule-Thomson effect cools or warms a real gas:

To achieve the required low distillation temperatures an air separation unit uses a refrigeration cycle that operates by means of the Joule-Thomson effect.

The Joule-Thomson effect (during Joule expansion), the temperature change of a gas (usually cooling) when it is allowed to expand freely.

The most common process for the preparation of liquid air is the two-column Hampson-Linde cycle using the Joule-Thomson effect.

The Hampson-Linde cycle is based on the Joule-Thomson effect and is used in the liquefaction of gases.

The temperature reduction is obtained by the Joule-Thomson effect of expanding well fluid as it flows through the pressure-reducing choke or valve into the separator.

Carl von Linde and William Hampson, both commercial researchers, nearly at the same time filed for patents on the Joule-Thomson effect.

The expanding air cools greatly (the Joule-Thomson effect), and oxygen, nitrogen, and argon are separated by further stages of expansion and distillation.

In 1965, Amoils refined the cryoextraction method of cataract surgery by developing a cryoprobe that was cooled through the Joule-Thomson effect of gas expansion.

In 1852, Joule and Thomson demonstrated that a rapidly expanding gas cools, later named the Joule-Thomson effect or Joule-Kelvin effect.

On July 10, 1908, he was the first to liquify helium, using a number of precooling stages and the Hampson-Linde cycle based on the Joule-Thomson effect.

In a throttling process, the Joule-Thomson effect means that an adiabatic device uses energy equal to the decrease in the enthalpy of the fluid flowing through the device.

The collaboration lasted from 1852 to 1856, its discoveries including the Joule-Thomson effect, and the published results did much to bring about general acceptance of Joule's work and the kinetic theory.

When it expands, it also cools the tank, due to the Joule-Thomson effect, but at a far lower rate than liquid CO because it does not have to change from liquid to gas.

In practice, the Joule-Thomson effect is achieved by allowing the gas to expand through a throttling device (usually a valve) which must be very well insulated to prevent any heat transfer to or from the gas.

This is known as the Joule-Thomson effect, and when Superman does this, it is usually referred to as Freeze Breath, and can cool objects to sub-zero temperatures and freeze air moisture solid.

He next experimented with a high pressure hydrogen jet by which low temperatures were realized through the Joule-Thomson effect, and the successful results he obtained led him to build at the Royal Institution a large regenerative cooling refrigerating machine.

This led to the Joule-Thomson effect cryoprobe in 1965, using carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide to cool the probe, which could then be reheated electrically, or by warm gas to release the probe if the resulting iceball also adhered to the iris; this dramatically changed cataract and retinal surgery.
