A throttle is the mechanism by which fluid flow is managed by constriction or obstruction.

energy

The threshold limit value (TLV) of a chemical substance is believed to be a level to which a worker can be exposed day after day for a working lifetime without adverse effects.

energy

In particle physics, the threshold energy for production of a particle is the minimum kinetic energy a pair of traveling particles must have when they collide.

energy

Three-phase electric power is a common method of alternating current electric power generation, transmission, and distribution.

Third-generation photovoltaic cells are solar cells that are potentially able to overcome the Shockley–Queisser limit of 31–41% power efficiency for single bandgap solar cells.

energy

Algae can be produced in ponds or tanks on land, and out at sea.

energy

Thiols are used as odorants to assist in the detection of natural gas (which in pure form is odorless), and the "smell of natural gas" is due to the smell of the thiol used as the odorant.

energy

A thin-film solar cell is a second generation solar cell that is made by depositing one or more thin layers, or thin film of photovoltaic material on a substrate, such as glass, plastic or metal.

energy

A thin film is a layer of material ranging from fractions of a nanometer (monolayer) to several micrometers in thickness.

energy

A valve that is controlled automatically by the set temperature of the temperature sensor.
