That is a heated O2 sensor.
the wavelength of emission becomes shorter
They are Emission control measures to reduce smog. SFI siequential fuel injection, EGR exaust gas recirculation, TWC three-way-catalyst, HO2S Heated O2 Sensor
HEGO stands for heated oxygen sensor.
The 1996 Ford Taurus heated oxygen sensor can be found behind the dashboard on the passenger side of the passenger compartment. The oxygen sensor should be labeled as such.
The name of the range of colors emitted by a heated (energized, excited, etc...) atom is called an emission spectrum.
On a 2005 Ford Taurus with the 3.0 liter Vulcan , V6 engine : The PCV valve is heated ( in the power distribution box , which is " live " , located at the front of the engine compartment near the battery , mini fuse # 22 is a 5 amp fuse for the heated PCV valve on the Vulcan engine )
thermionic emission occurs when the filaments are heated to a certain degree, causing the electrons to boil off and form a space charge or electron cloud.
Every element can produce an emission spectrum, if it is sufficiently heated. Of the 4 elements that you mention, neon is the most useful, in terms of its emission spectrum, and it is used in a certain type of lighting.
The color depends on the lines of the emission spectrum of each different element.
no it is created by electrons moving down in orbitals producing energy packets of photons
It depends on what you added to the methanol before you put the heated copper wire into the methanol. The heated copper wire acted as a catalyst to speed up the reaction between the methanol and the other substance. Copper itself does not react with methanol.
It's a self diagnostic feature of the heated seat system. If the switch high and low indicator lamps are both flashing indicates the heated seat element is shorted. If the switch high lamp is flashing and the low is off then the heated seat element is open. This diagnostic feature only lasts for about 1 minute, that's why it goes out.
