Parent topic

  • Engineering [r]: a branch of engineering that uses chemistry, biology, physics, and math to solve problems involving fuel, drugs, food, and many other products. [e]

Subtopics

  • Chemical engineering [r]: a branch of engineering that uses chemistry, biology, physics, and math to solve problems involving fuel, drugs, food, and many other products [e]
  • Thermodynamics [r]: The statistical description of the properties of molecular systems [e]

Other related topics

  • Condenser [r]: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Condenser (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
  • Enthalpy [r]: Energy function of thermodynamic system equal to internal energy plus pV (pressure times volume). [e]
  • Entropy (thermodynamics) [r]: Thermodynamic variable S appearing in the second law of thermodynamics. [e]
  • Gas [r]: One of the major states of matter (i.e., gas, liquid, solid and plasma). [e]
  • Gas compressor [r]: A machine that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. [e]
  • Expansion turbine [r]: A centrifugal or axial flow turbine through which a high pressure gas is isentropically expanded to produce work. [e]
  • Flash evaporation [r]: The partial vaporization that occurs when a saturated liquid stream undergoes a reduction in pressure by passing through a throttling valve or other throttling device. [e]
  • Joule-Thomson effect [r]: The increase or decrease in the temperature of a real gas (as differentiated from an ideal gas) when it is allowed to expand freely at constant enthalpy (meaning that no heat is transferred to or from the gas, and no external work is extracted from the gas). [e]
