Sentences with phrase «thermal equilbrium»

You're quoting stuff I can't find, you've ditched his scenario and put your own in its place, and changing energetic equilibrium for thermal equilbrium you then spend your whole time arguing that he can't get an adiabatic lapse rate from a thermal equilibrium which he never said he could, and, you bring in conduction, the wire, when he is explicitly talking about gases.

The algebra needed to do the calculation is straightforward, if local thermal equilbrium has been reached.
