equivalent temperature

At equivalent temperatures it is buoyant with respect to dry air.

"Black body equivalent temperature of Lewis's hull, six thousand degrees."

Equivalent temperature was not universally used in North America until the 21st century.

This led to more realistic (warmer-sounding) values of equivalent temperature.

One is that although the wind chill really measures heat loss, it is described in the form of an equivalent temperature.

Their equivalent temperatures were measured in the thousands of degrees, and there lay the necessity for life to harvest this bounty.

This led to equivalent temperatures that were obviously exaggerations of the severity of the weather.

During strong Arctic air outbreaks the "windchill equivalent temperature" is typically in the -25 to -35 C range on the island.

"I really don't like equivalent temperature as a way of expressing wind chill," Mr. Osczevski said.

Equivalent temperature is the temperature of an air parcel from which all the water vapor has been extracted by an adiabatic process.

Some references also use the terms 'equivalent temperature" or 'effective temperature' to describe combined effects of convective and radiant heat transfer.

We refer to the temperature as an equivalent temperature, since actual firing conditions may vary somewhat from those in which the cones were originally standardized.

The achieved noise equivalent temperature difference of ferroelectric detectors with F-number optics and 320x240 sensors is 70-80 mK.

In the 1960s, wind chill began to be reported as a wind chill equivalent temperature (WCET), which is theoretically less useful.

The "heat index" (HI, also "humiture") is a measurement which combines air temperature and relative humidity as being the human-perceived equivalent temperature - how hot it feels.

Over the ensuing years, the BIPM developed and maintained cross-correlations relating various measuring devices such as thermocouples, light spectra and the like to the equivalent temperatures.

The microwave signal Dr. Penzias and Dr. Wilson discovered had an equivalent temperature of 2.7 degrees Kelvin, astonishingly close to the 1940 prediction.

MRT also has a strong influence on thermophysiological comfort indexes such as physiological equivalent temperature (PET) or predicted mean vote (PMV).

The "wind-chill factor" then gives an equivalent temperature that it would have to be outside in still air for the same rate of heat loss that you get in still air with the current wind.

Therefore, the electrons can be maintained at very high equivalent temperatures - tens of thousands of kelvins, equivalent to several electronvolts average energy-while the neutral atoms remain at the ambient temperature.

Infrared radiation in the spectral distribution of a black body is usually considered a form of heat, since it has an equivalent temperature, and is associated with an entropy change per unit of thermal energy.

In 2001, shortly after the introduction of RealFeel, the United States and Canada introduced a revision of the wind chill equivalent temperature, making the temperatures significantly warmer than they had been in the old calculations, from 1945.

Wind makes a body or a beaker lose heat faster than it otherwise would, but if the air temperature is 35 and the wind is 60 miles an hour, creating an equivalent temperature of 18, water will still not freeze, and frostbite is not possible.
