Sentences with phrase «outgoing heat energy»

The process amounts to a heat pump with a frequency cycle of 52 full cycles per annum producing a continuous flow of outgoing heat energy.
But there is this much physics behind it: both the melting of glaciers and the warming of ocean water is driven by the imbalance between incoming and outgoing heat energy.

Not exact matches

This creates an imbalance between incoming solar energy and outgoing heat.
The amount of water in the tank is the heat in the Earth system and the input and output valves are incoming and outgoing energy.
You might say energy is retained, but it is the vastly more numerous O2 and N2 molecules that are warmed and retain the heat, even though they can not directly absorb outgoing infrared energy themselves.
In other words, greenhouse gases don't retain heat themselves, but rather redirect outgoing energy radiated by the surface and lower in the atmosphere, thereby delaying it's ultimate escape to space.
Due to the increased greenhouse effect «trapping» more heat, there's more incoming than outgoing energy at the top of the Earth's atmosphere.
A heat recovery ventilator reduces energy use by transferring the heat or cold from the outgoing stale air and using it to condition the incoming fresh air.
To determine how fast Earth's systems are accumulating heat, scientists focus on Earth's energy imbalance (EEI): the difference between incoming solar radiation and outgoing longwave (thermal) radiation.
The evolution of global mean surface temperatures, zonal means and fields of sea surface temperatures, land surface temperatures, precipitation, outgoing longwave radiation, vertically integrated diabatic heating and divergence of atmospheric energy transports, and ocean heat content in the Pacific is documented using correlation and regression analysis.
An atmosphere that is perfectly transparent to incoming and outgoing radiation can not radiate and all its heat content comes from conduction from the surface and is transported through the atmosphere solely by convection with no loss of energy to space except for the tiny fraction of atoms at the top of the atmosphere that exceed escape velocity.
Assume a fixed rate of energy per unit time is being absorbed by and / or generated within an object; and at temperature T the object is in «heat transfer» equilbrium — i.e., the amount of outgoing energy per unit time is equal to the incoming radiation per unit time.
Any system where energy is being accumulated in the form of ordering will by definition have a discrepancy between incoming «low - entropy» energy (visible photons) and outgoing «higher entropy» energy (heat).
A temporary reduction in OLR means the incoming exceeds the outgoing radiation, which causes heat energy in the climate system to rise until the surface and troposphere temperature increases enough to restore the top - of - atmosphere radiation balance by increasing the OLR to the previous value.
To be energy or more properly, heat transferred, the one - way upwelling radiation from the surface absorbed by the air should be reduced by subtraction of the down - welling radiation of the air absorbed by the surface Note that by subtraction of the (about 20 W / m ² in global average) flow surface to cosmos of both terms of GH, GH expression becomes GH = (radiation from the surface absorbed by the air) minus (outgoing longwave radiation from the air) which has absolutely no physical sense!
Where there is outgoing energy defecit, the atmosphere heats, lowering the height of the Tropopause.
The greenhouse effect heats the earth because greenhouse gases absorb outgoing radiative energy and re-emit some of it back towards earth.
In other words, * we can observe the increase of CO2 in atmosphere above the ocean, * CO2 absorbs some part of the outgoing radiation from the surface of the ocean which increases somewhat the temperature of the air * The increasing of temperature causes the (slight) increase of the (already existing) back radiation * This (now increased) back radiation is absorbed by the surface skin layer of the ocean which means that the energy delivered by the back radiation to the surface skin layer is now slightly higher * This additional energy will now be distributed over the channels that are participating in the heat transfer from the absorbing surface skin layer to both the air above the skin layer and the bulk of the ocean.
I get upset when I see «The greenhouse effect heats the earth because greenhouse gases absorb outgoing radiative energy and re-emit some of it back towards earth.»
The influence of atmospheric CO2 on the balance between incoming energy from the Sun and outgoing heat from Earth (also called the planet's energy balance) is well established.
The influence of atmospheric CO2 on the balance between incoming energy from the Sun and outgoing heat from the Earth (also called the planet's energy balance) is well established.
Maps of the long - term monthly and annual means of the net surface energy flux together with the four components of the total flux (latent heat flux, sensible heat flux, incoming radiation, and outgoing radiation) for the global oceans are presented.
Secondly, the Solar energy which the cartoon claims converts to heat to produce this outgoing Thermal IR is composed of UV, Visible and Near IR, none of which are actual thermal IR, heat on the move, we can not feel them, and there is no attempt made to prove that these energies convert to enough heat of land and sea to raise the temperature of the Earth.
But what makes me uneasy is that in order to calculate the outgoing energy, I need a temperature, which I get by dividing the heat capacity into the accumulated energy.
[38] Greenhouse gases absorb and emit some of the outgoing energy radiated from Earth's surface, causing that heat to be retained in the lower atmosphere.
A real greenhouse primarily restricts heat escape by preventing convection while the «greenhouse effect» heats the Earth because «greenhouse gases» (GHG) absorb outgoing radiative energy and re-emit some of it back towards Earth.
The data is ocean heat — and incoming energy less outgoing.
