The Effect of a Low Viscosity Layer on
... In this paper we attempt to find a solution of the following problem. It appears reasonable to expect that if thermal convection occurs in the Earth’s mantle, it may also occur within the Moon and Mars. The dimensions of these latter two bodies are comparable to the thickness of the Earth’s mantle. ...

Meaning of Entropy in Classical Thermodynamics
... Another area where problems arise owing to the current view of entropy is in metrology, where it is used in defining the thermodynamic temperature scale [17]. Recommendations have been made to the international system of units to consider changing the temperature unit from kelvin to a unit based on ...

Thermal Noise Considerations of Cascaded Stages
... Standard Noise Temperature We can see from the noise factor definition equation that the noise factor F is a function of the input noise power Ni . The noise factor of a given device in a system will therefore depend on the actual input noise power it receives in the same system. In order to define ...

Influence of magmatism on mantle cooling, surface heat flow and
... usual half-space cooling solution rather than the magmatic heat loss, leading to a lower bound of 1.1 TW. Assuming a linear initial temperature profile in the oceanic crust (McKenzie et al., 2005) is half way between these bounds. In contrast, for intraplate volcanism such as flood basalts, basalt coo ...
