heat loss factor
1Building Heat-Loss Factor — A measure of the heating requirements of a building expressed in Btu per degree day …
2Heat transfer — is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the exchange of thermal energy from one physical system to another. Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation, and phase change …

4Fanning friction factor — The Fanning friction factor is a dimensionless number used in fluid flow calculations. It is related to the Shear stress at the wall as:: au = frac{ f ho v^2}{2}where:* au is the shear stress at the wall *f is the Fanning friction factor of the… …
5Dissipation factor — In physics, the dissipation factor (DF) is a measure of loss rate of energy of a mode of oscillation (mechanical, electrical, or electromechanical) in a dissipative system. It is the reciprocal of Quality factor, which represents the quality of… …
6Fusion energy gain factor — The fusion energy gain factor, usually expressed with the symbol Q, is the ratio of fusion power produced in a nuclear fusion reactor to the power required to maintain the plasma in steady state.In a fusion power reactor a plasma must be… …

8Dynamic scraped surface heat exchanger — The dynamic scraped surface heat exchanger (DSSHE) was designed to face some problems found in other types of heat exchangers. They increase heat transfer by: removing the fouling layers, increasing turbulence in case of high viscosity flow,… …
9Dynamic scraped surface heat exchangers — Introduction The most important technologies for indirect heat transfer use tubes (shell and tube exchangers) or flat surfaces (plate exchangers). Their goal is to exchange the maximum amount of heat per unit area by generating as much turbulence …
101995 Chicago heat wave — The 1995 Chicago heat wave was a heat wave which led to approximately 750 heat related deaths in Chicago over a period of five days.[1] Eric Klinenberg, author of the 2002 book Heat Wave: A Social Autopsy of Disaster in Chicago, has noted that in …
