Amazon.com: Books: Starfish (Rifters Trilogy) (#)

„Channer Vent is a zone of freezing darkness that belongs to shellfish the size of boulders and crimson worms three meters long. It's the temporary home of the maintenance crew of a geothermal energy plant--a crew made up of the damaged and dysfunctional flotsam of an overpopulated near-future earth. The crew's reluctant leader, basket case Lenie Clarke, can barely survive in the upper world, but she quickly falls under the rift's spell, just as Watts's magical descriptions of it enchant the reader: "Steam never gets a chance to form at three hundred atmospheres, but thermal distortion turns the water into a column of writhing liquid prisms, hotter than molten glass."“

They divide the nano realm into nanomeasurement and nanomanipulation, and the latter into nanofabrication (or nanoscale engineering) and self-assembly then explain why the scale of the technology can affect potentially just about every product and industry including health care, materials, energy, inventory management, computers, agriculture, sensors - anything whose products and processes will be changed by the ability to made precise atomic manipulations that affect physical properties of strength, conductivity, and optical, magnetic, and thermal properties.“

Mexico: Hybrid Solar Thermal Power Project (#)

„Project Description: The proposed project would involve the construction of a solar thermal/natural gas-fired hybrid power plant in Baja California Norte with a total net installed capacity of about 300 MW, including about 30 MW for the solar component. The plant would be part of Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE) system expansion plan under which up to 500 MW each of combined cycle gas turbine systems would come online in year 2004 in the sites of Laguna or Hermosillo, and in 2005 in Cerro Prieto. The proposed hybrid power plant would be developed by an IPP through a Build Own Operate (BOO) contract with CFE, which will purchase capacity and energy under an appropriate Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).“

How an Elctric Rice Cooker Works (#)

„When rice and water is placed into the inner cooking pan and then put into the main body of the rice cooker, the weight of the inner cooking pan depresses the thermal sensor. With the rice cooker plugged in and the cooking switch turned on, the heating plate begins to heat up bringing the liquid in the cooking pan to a boil. Water boils at 212 degrees F and no higher, so as long as there is water in the pan the rice cooker will continue to cook.“

Chemical Reactions Occurring in the Roasting Process (#)

„Establishing the thermal environment protocol for theideal roast is a balancing act. While it is desirable to maintain the BRRtemperature and energy levels until the target reactions are achieved,the BRR temperature is well above the carmelization temperature of sucrose.Because many roasting systems exhibit thermal hysterysis using simple temperatureregulating schemes, care must be taken not to allow the coffee mass toexotherm. Additionally, limiting the maximum environment temperature, MET,is also important. As previously mentioned, maintaining structural integrityof the cellulose matrix is of great importance.“

„(Do not over-fill or over-tamp a steam-pressure device. This mistaken attempt to cheat physics by hampering the function of the safety pressure relief valve can put your kitchen decor -- if not your very life -- at severe risk.)     There are two popular styles of pump-driven machines: Those that heat water in a pressurized tank resembling a small boiler and those that use some type of fast-acting heat exchanger, often referred to as a thermal block.     There are good and bad features of both styles. Each family of machine has its diehard fans.“

Despite a lower minimum Tc during cooling, the maximum intensities of the vasoconstriction (P = 0.03) and heat production (P = 0.006) responses were less in the older compared with the younger subjects, whereas subjective thermal comfort scores were similar. Plasma NE concentrations increased fourfold in the younger but only twofold in the older subjects at maximal Tc cooling. The vasomotor response for a given change in plasma NE concentration was decreased in the older group (P = 0.01).“

The Fine Art of Composting In Coffee Plantations (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„When the centre of the pit reaches a high temperature, some microorganisms migrate to the cooler regions or the periphery of the pit and recolonise once the heating subsides. At this final stage, microbial activity is decreased due to thermal kill. In the final analysis, one gets rich compost which can be immediately applied or further stored without much loss of nutrients due to restricted decomposition by microorganisms. In aerobic decomposition carbon dioxide is released.“
