There are three types of power handling in loudspeaker drivers, including woofers: thermal (heat), electrical (both covered above), and mechanical.
The facility is earth friendly with local and recycled materials comprising its structure, and native plants in a xeriscaping project absorb rainfall and thermal heat.
The company began its research on concentrating solar thermal energy to produce solar steam and thermal heat for absorption chillers or industrial process heat.
Electricity generation in Sri Lanka primarily uses hydro power and thermal heat, with sources such as photovoltaics and wind power in early stages of deployment.
Heat from the Earth, or geothermal - Geo (Earth) + thermal (heat) - energy can be and already is accessed by drilling water or steam wells in a process similar to drilling for oil.
In 1976, Thermador introduced the first "Speedcooking" oven, which combined thermal heat with microwave energy to cook up to 35 percent faster than conventional ovens.
Capsaicin feels hot in the mouth because it activates sensory receptors on the tongue otherwise used to detect thermal heat.
The facility outputs electrical energy rather than thermal heat.
In hot climates where building owners are trying to reduce air-conditioning costs, low-e windows are coated on the inner surface of the outer pane, which reflects the sun's thermal heat away before it can enter the building.
High thermal emittance material radiates thermal heat back into the atmosphere more-readily than one with a low thermal emittance.
