1 When the last tube is filling, remove the tourniquet. 2  Remove the needle from the patient's arm using a swift backward motion. 3  Place gauze immediately on the puncture site. 4  Apply and hold adequate pressure to avoid formation of a hematoma.
Thermal Diffusivity. a physical parameter of a substance that characterizes the rate of change of its temperature in transient thermal processes. Thermal diffusivity is a measure of the thermal-inertia properties of a substance. It is numerically equal to the ratio of the substanceâs thermal conductivity and the product of its specific heat (at constant pressure) and density. Thermal diffusivity is expressed in m 2 /sec.
1 Hydraulic conductivity, a property of a porous material's ability to transmit water. 2  Thermal conductivity, the intensive property of a material that indicates its ability to conduct heat.  Rayleigh conductivity, describing the behavior of apertures concerning the flow of a liquid or gas.
