What is an piston cooling oil nozzle?
It is a little nozzle which is pointed towards the beneath of a piston in an internal combustion engine. It is linked to the pressurised side of the oil system, so cool oil coming directly from the oilcooler will spray onto the piston and cooling it instead of just cooling around the cylinder. This enables the engine to run a much more efficient combustion without the chance of melting a piston or overheating the engine which could lead to engine failure.
Are turbines more efficient than gasoline engines?
By a generous estimate, they can be about 30% more efficient than a gasoline engine. I assume you mean "are turbines more efficient than piston engines". Depends on the running conditions. At full load, steady running conditions, turbines are better than piston Engines. At varying loads, turbines often do quite poorly.
What is the effect of surface area on cooling?
Increasing surface area allows for more efficient heat dissipation, as it provides more contact with the surrounding environment for heat transfer. This ultimately results in faster cooling rates and lower temperatures for the object. On the contrary, reducing surface area can lead to slower cooling rates due to limited contact with the surrounding environment.
How is the inside of a frog's stomach different to the outside?
increased surface area which allows for more efficient digestion
What improvement to the steam engine made it more efficient?
The additon of a condenser, which allowed condensation without the loss of heat in the piston

How does a fan shroud aid in cooling?
It collects and directs the air flow for a more efficient heat transfer.
How does the Peltier effect work and what is its significance in thermoelectric cooling technology?
The Peltier effect is a phenomenon where an electric current flowing through two different materials creates a temperature difference between them. This effect is significant in thermoelectric cooling technology because it allows for the creation of cooling devices that do not require moving parts or refrigerants, making them more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Why does the US military like to use gas turbines instead of diesel piston engines in tanks and ships?
Because a gas turbine is more efficient. A piston engine is better for acceleration but that's about the only advantage.
Does slower cooling result in bigger cystals?
Yes, slower cooling results in larger crystals because it allows for more time for the molecules to arrange themselves into a more ordered structure. This slower process allows the crystals to grow more slowly and can lead to bigger crystal formations.
What are the differences between a window AC unit and a wall AC unit in terms of installation, efficiency, and cooling capacity?
A window AC unit is typically easier to install and more affordable, but may be less efficient and have lower cooling capacity compared to a wall AC unit. Wall AC units are usually more efficient and have higher cooling capacity, but they are more complex to install and generally more expensive.
