Early thermal weapons

The use of napalm Napalm has been one of the most controversial and destructive war weapons that has been used in modern times, with little international political restriction, although the use of napalm is morally wrong in many people 's minds. The use of this weapon dates back to World War ll, with its development in a highly classified lab at Harvard University. Napalm saw its first widespread use in the burning of Japanese cities during the end of the war in the Pacific. This chemical was rather a multifunctional weapon, with it being able to be dropped from air, or used on the ground by tanks and flamethrower troops. Napalm is basically a flammable liquid that is most often restricted to warfare use. It is a mixture of a chemical gelling agent and a petroleum based fuel. Napalm was first an incendiary device used to burn down building, later it was primarily used as an anti-personnel weapon, as it sticks to skin and causes severe burns when on…

What do your results tell you? Are there any relationships, patterns or trends in your results? From our [processed] results, we can conclude that the polystyrene cup served as the least effective conductor of heat, the tin mug coming in at a close second. The most effective material for heat conduction was the plastic mug. At the beginning of the tests, all of the water in the cup declined in temperature at a steady, even rate, but once one minute had passed, they had all started to cool down…

Introduction: Alcohols are used in everyday life and as a result they are of great interest to chemists, specifically in regards to energy output. Energy output is extremely important when it comes to classifying a compound’s uses. For example, a compound with an explosive energy output can be implemented as a fuel for cars or other vehicles. This is the very reason that accurate information about the heat and/or energy output of alcohols are in high demand in many industries. Fuels release…

rectangular heat sink with through holes It is to be noted that because of provision of through holes, passage of air takes place via these holes and the overall effect may result in more heat transfer rate. IV. GEOMETRY The rectangular heatsinks used for electronic devices are arranged up in inline positions as shown in all the figures. According to length and number of fins, the dimensions of base on which the fins rest, is decided. However, the dimensions decided in this study is as…

The sun creates solar energy when nuclear fusion reactions occur in the sun’s core; then the solar power has to be collected to convert it into different types of energy. Countries that use solar energy have two ways to get; one is by solar thermal Power Plants and it works is by using the sun’s radiation to heat fluid then transfer its heat to water to produce steam, then that steam is converted into mechanical energy that powers a generator to generate electricity. The second way to collect…
