Industry:Energy
The meter-kilogram-second unit of work orenergy, equal to the work done by a force of one newton when its point of application moves through a distance of one meter in the direction ofthe force; equivalent to 107 ergs and one watt-second.
Industry:Energy
Heat energy residing in impermeable, crystalline rock. Hydraulic fracturing may be used to create permeability to enable circulation of water and removal of the heat.
Industry:Energy
This is determined by the interval in which the 60-minute integrated demand is the greatest.
Industry:Energy
The rate of heat production by a steady current in any part of an electrical circuit that is proportional to the resistance and to the square of the current, or, the internal energy of an ideal gas depends only on its temperature.
Industry:Energy
Water-filled wood, plastic, or ceramic container in which up to 12 people can lounge. Normally equipped with a heater that heats the water from 80 degrees to 106 degrees Fahrenheit. It may also have jets to bubble the water. The water is not drained after each use. An average-size hot tub holds 200 to 400 gallons of water. All reported hot tubs are assumed to include an electric pump.These are also called spas or jacuzzis.
