Absorption Coefficient — In reference to a solar energy conversion devices, the degree to which a substance will absorb solar energy. In a solar photovoltaic device, the factor by which photons are absorbed as they travel a unit distance through a material … Energy terms
Absorption Chiller — A type of air cooling device that uses absorption cooling to cool interior spaces … Energy terms
Absorption Refrigeration — A system in which a secondary fluid absorbs the refrigerant, releasing heat, then releases the refrigerant and reabsorbs the heat. Ammonia or water is used as the vapor in commercial absorption cycle systems, and water or lithium bromide is the … Energy terms
Absorption (acoustics) — Absorption refers to the absorption of sound waves by a material. The absorption is the missing piece , when comparing the total reflected and transmitted energy with the incident energy. It is the property of a material that changes acoustic… … Wikipedia
Absorption cross section — is a measure for the probability of an absorption process. More generally, the term cross section is used in physics to quantify the probability of a certain particle particle interaction, e.g., scattering, photoabsorption, etc. (Note that light… … Wikipedia
Energy 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… … Wikipedia
Energy filtered transmission electron microscopy — (EFTEM) is a technique used in Transmission electron microscopy, in which only electrons of particular kinetic energies are used to form the image or diffraction pattern. The technique can be used to aid chemical analysis of the sample in… … Wikipedia
