Sentences with phrase «terms of the heat transfer»

I was only thinking in terms of the heat transfer and temperature changes, and have not thought through the implications for sea level rise.

Not exact matches

My PangeaBed pillow ($ 125)(infused with copper for better heat transfer, too) is noticeably cooler than most, and one of my all - time favorites thanks to its unparalleled bounce and antimicrobial benefits, but it doesn't come within a swinging distance of the Helix Cool Pillow in terms of temperature control.

Compression clothing may inhibit this natural process of heat transfer even more, which would IMPAIR performance in the short term (during exercise), even while potentially improving muscle repair and recovery times (post-exercise).

But so far I've read nothing that actually addresses the problem at hand, only descriptions of heat transfer in technical terms.

Most of the responses I'm seeing here are attempts to explain, very literally, and largely in technical terms, how heat is transferred to or from the ocean.

All of the other energy transfer terms (sensible and latent heat fluxes, advection, conduction, etc) require some medium and are not operative as space - to - planet energy transfer terms.

even if there were a period of predominantly positive PDO over the long - term, the oceans would cool as a consequence of the transfer of heat to the overlying air.

It is an oscillation which simply moves heat from oceans to air and vice-versa, so even if there were a period of predominantly positive PDO over the long - term, the oceans would cool as a consequence of the transfer of heat to the overlying air.

In this case you have the diffusion transfer equation, which similarly has a differential of hot and cold terms describing the heat flow, as does the radiation transfer equation, and we all understand that heat does not physically diffuse from cold to hot and that physical contact between a cold object and warm object does not make the warmer object warmer still.

As you rightly point out, the influence of oceanic heat - sinks is potentially a large factor and I don't really know how the transfer of energy within it is modelled in terms of difusion, layer mixing and bulk transport.

The most natural type of long term variability is in my view based on slowly varying changes in ocean circulation, which doesn't necessarily involve major transfer of heat from one place to another but influences cloudiness and other large scale weather patterns and through that the net energy flux of the Earth system.

Since to me (and many scientists, although some wanted a lot more corroborative evidence, which they've also gotten) it makes absolutely no sense to presume that the earth would just go about its merry way and keep the climate nice and relatively stable for us (though this rare actual climate scientist pseudo skeptic seems to think it would, based upon some non scientific belief — see second half of this piece), when the earth changes climate easily as it is, climate is ultimately an expression of energy, it is stabilized (right now) by the oceans and ice sheets, and increasing the number of long term thermal radiation / heat energy absorbing and re radiating molecules to levels not seen on earth in several million years would add an enormous influx of energy to the lower atmosphere earth system, which would mildly warm the air and increasingly transfer energy to the earth over time, which in turn would start to alter those stabilizing systems (and which, with increasing ocean energy retention and accelerating polar ice sheet melting at both ends of the globe, is exactly what we've been seeing) and start to reinforce the same process until a new stases would be reached well after the atmospheric levels of ghg has stabilized.

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!

Backradiation is a silly term used to explain half of the radiative heat transfer system between the Earth's surface and the atmosphere.

So you can't show where I have said Held states there has been a long term trend in heat transport to support the self - propelling climate I never claimed was self - propelling from the transfer of heat from the deep oceans that I never claimed was transfered.

Tim Folkerts says: May 9, 2011 at 6:08 pm The transfer of heat by collisions between the surface and the atmosphere is the «thermals» term.
