... i) Low Pressure - A whirling mass of warm, moist air that generally brings stormy weather with strong winds. When viewed from above, winds spiral into a lowpressure center in a counterclockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere. ii) High Pressure – – A whirling mass of cool, dry air that generally ...

Chapter 5: Mass and Energy Analysis of Control Volumes
... Most energy conversion devices operate steadily over long periods of time. The rates of heat transfer and work crossing the control surface are constant with time. The states of the mass streams crossing the control surface or boundary are constant with time. Under these conditions the mass and ener ...

A thermal study of the formation of oceanic crust
... In the subsequent computations a two-dimensional rectangular-shaped lithosphere 80-km thick has been assumed. The lithosphere probably actually thins towards the ridge crest, but the results will still apply as the thermal penetration is shallow here. A liquidus temperature of To = 1125°C has been a ...

Influence of natural convection in a porous medium when producing
... BHE is producing heat, the borehole is filled with fluid having a temperature that is lower than the surrounding porous medium. The cooler borehole triggers convection currents in the subsurface as a horizontal temperature gradient always causes fluid motion [Vadasz et al., 1993]. A problem similar to ...

Atmospheric convection
Atmospheric convection is the result of a parcel-environment instability, or temperature difference, layer in the atmosphere. Different lapse rates within dry and moist air lead to instability. Mixing of air during the day which expands the height of the planetary boundary layer leads to increased winds, cumulus cloud development, and decreased surface dew points. Moist convection leads to thunderstorm development, which is often responsible for severe weather throughout the world. Special threats from thunderstorms include hail, downbursts, and tornadoes.
