Thermodynamic losses in prds
2008-03-14 11:29:00 I am trying to depressurise and desuperheat steam from 176bar, 540deg C of approx flow 180t/h to 105bar, 515deg C. This is done to condition the steam parameter suitable for the inlet of a Steam Turbine. I need to evaluate the loss as a result of this depressurising and desuperheating. How is it don
Another Round on Thermodynamics [EvolutionBlog]
2007-12-03 04:36:00 Every once in a while the ID folks get into their heads to set-up an actual academic journal. You know, a place where they can lay out all that cutting-edge research kept out of the real journals by dogmatic Darwinian stormtroopers. These journals invariably founder on their inability to find any scientists willing to write for them. Remember Proceedings in Complexity, Information and Design? It’s been moribund since November 2005. Or how about Origins and Design? That one went belly-up around the turn of the century. The latest representative of the genre is Anti-Matters. It bills itself as “A quarterly open-access journal addressing issues in science and the humanities from non-materialistic perspectives.” Somehow I’m not optimistic that this journal will make any splash among scientists. You see, the current issue features an article which — are you sitting down? — revives the second law of thermodynamics argument against evolution. ...
Your Personal Energy: A Thermodynamic View
2007-11-11 14:01:00 In some circles, the advice you’re given is always the same. For all types of troubles, both big and small, we are told to pray or meditate, engage in positive thinking, examine our beliefs… The person who is depressed is told to “think positively!” “cheer up!” or “pray about it!”. Likewise for someone who ...

Economics and thermodynamics
2007-10-16 07:27:00 Doing a perfunctory search on google about Economics and Thermodynamics I found a bunch of articles about the second and third laws of thermodynamics as they apply to economics. Don’t worry, I will not talk about chaos or entropy, I will talk about the first law of thermodynamics: “The increase in the internal energy of ...
Akasa announces the Revo thermodynamic CPU cooler
2007-09-21 17:51:00 After a little teasing time Akasa has finally unveiled its newest CPU cooler, the Revo. Powered by thermodynamic ‘bubble-pump’ technology the Revo promises noiseless cooling and high thermal performance.“We saw the potential in this new technology right away”, says Adrian Young, Marketing Director of Akasa. “It’s quieter than heatpipe coolers, cooler than conventional heatsinks, and easier to fit—and safer—than watercoolers. This technology could revolutionize CPU cooling”With Revo's system heat is transported rapidly by a dual-component fluid along a hermetically sealed circuit to an aluminum radiator with hundreds of fine-fins. Eight multiports, each with eight capillary tubes, evenly distributes heat throughout the radiator where it is dispersed by cool air from a 92mm fan operating at 600 to 2200 RPM.The Revo weights only 330g, and can be easily fitted tool-free on Intel LGA775, AMD socket 939, 940, 754 and AM2. Retail availability is yet to be announced.Sourc...

Thermodynamics in Track and Field and Other Geeky Stuff
2007-07-14 20:03:00 I like to explore the depths of track and field websites. Geeky, huh? The IAAF website, for instance, has some 62,200 pages (62,400 pages, just 4 hours later) over which I can obsess. While exploring the web pages of our sport's international governing body, I ran across a section titled New Studies in Athletics that I had previously overlooked for some reason.While exploring it I found some easily-digestible summaries of some fascinating track and field research studies. These summaries are so short that even the complex scientific information they contain can be absorbed within a minute or two. Here's one that is so short, I'll just quote it in its entirety:The effects of warm-up and pre-cooling on endurance performance in high ambient temperaturesWednesday 18 April 2007By Sandra Ückert and Winfried JochIt is well established that warm conditions have a detrimental effect on endurance performance. If skin temperature is exceeded by the ambient temperature, heat dissipation is...
Infinite-energy proof challenges materialist thermodynamics dogma
2007-07-11 06:01:00 Ask a materialist if an infinitely powerful entity is possible, and they will reply with a “No!”, without even bothering to consider your question for a moment. The materialist’s understanding of the laws of thermodynamics exclude any knowledge of systems that have infinite energy. Unfortunately for materialists, their understanding of these basic scientific principles ...
food thermodynamics: place your bets
2007-07-09 01:23:00 QuestionHow long will it take to thaw a 40 pound turkey in a small refrigerator that is set to 36-38F? Additional data points It is one of those dorm/hotel room sized refrigerators and the turkey occupies ~80% of it. We took out all the shelving and there is a little freezer section. It is in my garage, which is warm, probably upper 70s, in the daytime and cools down to ~mid-60s at night. It's been about 36 hours so far and I can press down on the breast maybe 1/2 inch before hitting stuff that is solidly frozen. Maybe. (Did I mention this sucker is HUGE?) There's bragging rights, if not much else, at stake here. I'll post a guess later - I think we've got a few days to contemplate this question before it gets much closer to thawed. Then I have to figure out what to do with it...
