Sentences with phrase «frictional dissipation»

If your room is isolated from the environment, frictional dissipation of kinetic energy of wind (ultimately to internal energy of the air) will lead to a rise in room temperature.

Incidentally, this work coincides with the amount of frictional dissipation related to precipitation.

In this steady - state the fan creates as much kinetic energy of wind per unit time as the frictional dissipation destroys.

SecularAnimist (# 376) «An increase in friction caused by the presence of the turbines is likely to be compensated by a decrease in frictional dissipation elsewhere.

Not exact matches

When the tip of the microscope oscillates over certain surfaces, in this case over NbSe2 (niobium selenide), peaks of «dissipation» (i.e., loss of energy) can be seen when the tip is at specific distances from the surface, as if it were held back, at certain locations, by some frictional force.

Turbulence in both the ocean and the inviscid mantle (the part that flows freely like a liquid), as well as frictional drag at the core - mantle and mantle - crust boundaries where the mantle starts to solidify due respectively to increasing pressure and decreasing temperature, should account for most of this dissipation.
