In terms of bringing our worlds closer together the author wrote, The ethnocentric fallacy that everyone wants our way of life just because they desire our consumer goods has led to the untenable conclusion that goods like the internet, cell phones, and satellite TV are capable of transforming fundamental values and ideas.
An atmospheric temperature inversion, also known as stable conditions, may occur due to ground surface radiation thermal loss to the night sky on clear nights. The air near the ground is then cooler and cannot rise into the warmer air above. Hence the term stable.
Cooling example: Itâs a scorcher, itâs 100F outside and a day when the air conditioner is needed the most. Itâs 150F in the attic with 200 feet of poorly insulated supply ducting. The temperature drop over the coil is 20F. The supply plenum temperature measures 60F with the average supply register testing out at 70F.Thus we see a duct temperature loss of 10F. Divide the 10F loss into the 20F temperature drop over the coil: the system is losing 50% of its capacity. That just turned the systemâs efficiency from 14 SEER to 7 SEER.he supply plenum temperature measures 60F with the average supply register testing out at 70F. Thus we see a duct temperature loss of 10F. Divide the 10F loss into the 20F temperature drop over the coil: the system is losing 50% of its capacity.
