thermal emission
1Thermal Emission Imaging System — The Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) is a camera on board the 2001 Mars Odyssey orbiter. It images Mars in the visible and infrared parts of the electromagnetic spectrum in order to determine the thermal properties of the surface and to… …
2Thermal Emission Spectrometer — The Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) is an instrument on board Mars Global Surveyor. TES collects two types of data, hyperspectral thermal infrared data from 6 to 50 micrometers (μm) and bolometric visible NIR (0.3 to 2.9 μm) measurements. TES …

6Thermal radiation — is electromagnetic radiation emitted from the surface of an object which is due to the object s temperature. Infrared radiation from a common household radiator or electric heater is an example of thermal radiation, as is the light emitted by a… …
7Thermal diode — The term thermal diode is sometimes used to describe a (possibly non electrical) device which causes heat to flow preferentially in one direction. Or, the term may be used to describe an electrical (semiconductor) diode in reference to a thermal… …
8Thermal oxidizer — A thermal oxidizer is a process unit for air pollution control in many chemical plants that decomposes hazardous gases at a high temperature and releases them into the atmosphere. It is generally in the shape of a cylindrical stack, and usually… …
9emission-control system — ▪ automotive technology in automotive engineering, means employed to limit the discharge of noxious gases from the internal combustion engine. There are four main sources of these gases: the engine exhaust, the crankcase, the fuel tank, and …
