C4 pathway A pathway of carbon fixation, found most commonly in tropical plants that have high rates of growth and photosynthesis and that are adapted to high temperatures, strong light, low carbon dioxide levels, and low water supply. Its importance lies mainly in its reduction of photorespiration.
PT 100 RTD means Resistance temperature detector(RTD) of platinum with 100 ohms resistance at zero degree centigrade.
A factor called the cooling load temperature difference (CLTD) is used to account for the added heat transfer due to the sun shining on exterior walls, roofs, and windows, and the capacity of the wall and roof to store heat. The CLTD is substituted for ïT in the equation to estimate heat transfer by conduction.
