Sentence examples for a thermal wave from inspiring English sources

The new sensor operation is based on a thin-film pyroelectric transducer excited by a thermal wave.

It is shown that there exist three plane waves, namely a thermal wave, a P-wave and an SV-wave.

A 2D coupled heat and mass transfer model is used to analyze both finless and finned tube-type adsorbent bed for a thermal wave adsorption cooling cycle.

From the measurements of a thermal wave advancing in the column the adsorption equilibrium constant, heat of adsorption and overall heat transfer coefficient were determined.

The initialisation of the simulation and the application of the hot wall on a 'cold' system induce a large perturbation, which then propagates through the system as a thermal wave.

We present a model for acoustic wave propagation in a porous material which also allows for propagation of a thermal wave.

Even though, the formation of a pure thermal wave is well known, it does not lead to the above roll-up without a multilayered bed packing.

In this work, we report the existence of a peculiar type of roll-up caused by thermal effect solely in our multicomponent non-isothermal breakthrough experiments where the light component CO2 was swept off by a pure thermal wave developed from water vapour adsorption.

Another significant conclusion is that the presence of pressure drop can either deflate or inflate the plateau zones of both concentration and temperature waves, depending on the values of certain bed parameters, and in all cases will facilitate the formation of a "pure" thermal wave.

This effect can be amplified by the poor thermal conductivity of air: the increased void volume may have impeded the conductive loss rate, thereby sustaining a stronger thermal wave field within the trabecular pores.

The motivation for this research was to eliminate the paradox of an infinite thermal wave speed.
