Sentence examples for isothermal from inspiring English sources

Below this nearly isothermal layer 10 to 20 metres (33 to 66 feet) thick, the temperature decreases rapidly with depth, forming a shallow seasonal thermocline (i.e., layer of sharp vertical temperature change).

SustainX, a company spun out of Dartmouth University's engineering school and supported by America's Department of Energy (DOE) and GE, among others, has developed what it calls "isothermal CAES", which removes heat from the compressed air by injecting water vapour.

General Compression, a Massachusetts-based company also backed by the DOE, has developed an isothermal CAES system focused on providing support to wind farms.

However, T remains constant, and so one can use the equation of state to substitute P = nRT/V in equation (22) to obtain          (25) or, because PiVi = nRT = PfVf         (26) for an (ideal gas) isothermal process,         (27) WII is thus the work done in the reversible isothermal expansion of an ideal gas.

With further cooling, the top water becomes even denser and plunges, mixing with the water below, so that the lake continues to be isothermal but at ever colder temperatures.

Its P-T-t path would show a phase of nearly isothermal decompression (uplift at approximately constant temperature), reflecting the fact that uplift rates were more rapid than those of heat transfer.

It is replaced by a layer that is essentially isothermal (of equal temperature).

The thermopause, defined as the level of transition to a more or less isothermal temperature profile at the top of the thermosphere, occurs at heights of around 250 km (150 miles) during quiet Sun periods and almost 500 km (300 miles) when the Sun is active.

After it has cooled and has reached the same density as the water below, the water column becomes isothermal (i.e., there is a uniform temperature at all depths).

During winter cooling and increased wind mixing at the ocean surface, convective overturning and mixing erase this shallow thermocline and deepen the isothermal layer.

Meanwhile, General Compression in Newton, Massachusetts, is working on a near-isothermal system using salt cavern storage, like the early diabatic systems.
