energy-transfer process
1Energy transfer upconversion — or ETU is a physical principle (most commonly encountered in solid state laser physics) that involves the excitation of a laser active ion to a level above that which would be achieved by simple absorption of a pump photon, the required… …
2Energy transfer — In physics, energy transfer describes the process of transferring energy from one body to another. In other words if you were to drop a book into a pool, the kinetic energy from this book will transfer into the water causing it to make a splash… …
3Wireless energy transfer — or wireless power is the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without artificial interconnecting conductors. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous,… …
4Energy current — is a flow of energy defined by the Poynting vector (E×H), as opposed to normal current (flow of charge). It was originally postulated by Oliver Heaviside. Explanation Energy current is a somewhat informal term that is used, on occasion, to… …
5Energy recovery ventilation — is the process of exchanging the energy contained in normally exhausted building or space air and using it to treat the incoming outdoor ventilation air in residential and commercial HVAC systems. The benefit of using energy recovery is the… …
6Energy quality — the contrast between different forms of energy, the different trophic levels in ecological systems and the propensity of energy to convert from one form to another. The concept refers to our empirical experience of the characteristics, or qualia …
7Energy recovery — includes any technique or method of minimizing the input of energy to an overall system by the exchange of energy from one sub system of the overall system with another. The energy can be in any form in either subsystem, but most energy recovery… …
8Energy harvesting — (also known as Power harvesting or energy scavenging ) is the process by which energy is captured and stored. Frequently this term is applied when speaking about small autonomous devices, like those used in sensor networks. A variety of different …
9fluorescence resonance energy transfer — (FRET) a process used to study protein protein interactions in living cells when two proteins are in extremely close proximity. Light energy emitted by a fluorochrome is absorbed by an adjacent acceptor fluorochrome, which then emits light at a… …
10Energy — This article is about the scalar physical quantity. For other uses, see Energy (disambiguation). Energetic redirects here. For other uses, see Energetic (disambiguation) …
