evaporation pump
1Evaporation (deposition) — Evaporation machine used for metallization at LAAS technological facility in Toulouse, France. Evaporation is a common method of thin film deposition. The source material is evaporated in a vacuum. The vacuum allows vapor particles to travel… …
2Vacuum pump — A vacuum pump is a device that removes gas molecules from a sealed volume in order to leave behind a partial vacuum. The vacuum pump was invented in 1650 by Otto von Guericke. Types Pumps can be broadly categorized according to three… …
3Heat pump — A heat pump is a machine or device that moves heat from one location (the source ) to another location (the sink or heat sink ), using work. Most heat pump technology moves heat from a low temperature heat source to a higher temperature heat sink …
4Barton Evaporation Engine — The Barton Evaporation Engine (BEE) is a heat engine developed by Sunoba Pty Ltd.PrincipleThe principle of the BEE is based on (1) adiabatic expansion of unsaturated air, (2) evaporative cooling at reduced pressure, and (3) re compression back to …
5Heat pump and refrigeration cycle — Thermodynamic heat pump and refrigeration cycles are the models for heat pumps and refrigerators. The difference between a heat pump and a normal air conditioner is that a heat pump can be used to heat a home as well as cool it. Even though the… …
6Continental shelf pump — In oceanic biogeochemistry, the continental shelf pump is proposed to operate in the shallow waters of the continental shelves, acting as a mechanism to transport carbon (as either dissolved or particulate material) from surface waters to the… …
7Sahara pump theory — The Sahara Pump Theory explains how flora and fauna left Africa to penetrate the Middle East and beyond to Europe and Asia. African pluvial periods are associated with a wet Sahara phase during which larger lakes and more rivers exist. [cite… …
8Brine pump — Brine Brine, n. [AS. bryne a burning, salt liquor, brine, fr. brinnan, brynnan, to burn. See {Burn}.] 1. Water saturated or strongly impregnated with salt; pickle; hence, any strong saline solution; also, the saline residue or strong mother… …
9Vacuum pump — Vacuum Vac u*um, n.; pl. E. {Vacuums}, L. {Vacua}. [L., fr. vacuus empty. See {Vacuous}.] 1. (Physics) A space entirely devoid of matter (called also, by way of distinction, absolute vacuum); hence, in a more general sense, a space, as the… …
10dosing pump — a pump which can supply a very slow drip used to add trace elements or make up water lost from evaporation in aquaria. The most common type is a peristaltic pump …
