Sentence examples for parcel of water from inspiring English sources

Colder and more saline conditions in a surface parcel of water, for example, make it more likely for that parcel to sink spontaneously and thus become part of the process of free convection.

In practice, each parcel of water may have a unique residence time affected by physical properties (e.g., water density), flow type (e.g., inlet momentum) and geometric parameters (e.g., water depth) of a tank.

Therefore, estimation of residence time distribution (RTD) of each parcel of water is important, because they are used to calculate expected hydraulic and water quality efficiencies for specific designs.

where f is the distribution of travel time that can be computed by dividing the path length that a parcel of water needs to travel to reach each location by a characteristic velocity of the flow (see examples in Figure 2).

In the Lagrangian method individual parcels of water are tracked using floats or buoys.

By providing three-dimensional images resembling CAT scans, the tomography technique has already proved able to depict ocean areas as independently moving parcels of water.

Because the screen length is long (252 m) and much of the groundwater in the study area was predominantly old, it was expected that measured C concentrations represent the mean concentration of many parcels of water entering the well encompassing a broad set of travel times.

The ultimate objective was to track a parcel of DS water with known DIC concentration and elucidate the main processes affecting the DIC and δCDIC values when the DS water enters the aquifer.

Even though dissolved and particulate lignin ultimately come from the same vegetation sources, comparison of dissolved and particulate lignin parameters within the two Puerto Rican rivers indicate that the pathways by which they end up in the same parcel of river water are largely decoupled.

As the particles were very small, their velocity was equal to that of the surrounding water parcels, or groups of water molecules.

The simulations were initialized under saturated conditions (relative humidity of 100% with respect to liquid water) at a temperature of −5°C and the parcel lifted along a saturated adiabat; the parcel therefore contained a population of water droplets soon after the simulation started.
