Difference between Atmospheric circulation and Thermal efficiency

Atmospheric circulation vs. Thermal efficiency

Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air, and together with ocean circulation is the means by which thermal energy is redistributed on the surface of the Earth. In thermodynamics, the thermal efficiency (\eta_ \) is a dimensionless performance measure of a device that uses thermal energy, such as an internal combustion engine, a steam turbine or a steam engine, a boiler, furnace, or a refrigerator for example.

Similarities between Atmospheric circulation and Thermal efficiency

Atmospheric circulation and Thermal efficiency have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Heat pump, Thermal energy, Thermodynamics.

Heat pump

A heat pump is a device that transfers heat energy from a source of heat to what is called a "heat sink".

Thermal energy

Thermal energy is a term used loosely as a synonym for more rigorously-defined thermodynamic quantities such as the internal energy of a system; heat or sensible heat, which are defined as types of transfer of energy (as is work); or for the characteristic energy of a degree of freedom in a thermal system kT, where T is temperature and k is the Boltzmann constant.

Atmospheric circulation and Thermal efficiency Comparison

Atmospheric circulation has 54 relations, while Thermal efficiency has 82. As they have in common 3, the Jaccard index is 2.21% = 3 / (54 + 82).
