Best Answer

Moisture in the air in a waveguide can scatter the microwave energy the waveguide is designed to transport. This translates into signal loss or attenuation. The VSWR drops, and that is not a good thing.

How do you prevent water dripping at split type air conditioners?

The water coming out of the air conditioner is condensation from the air as it is dehumidified. It cannot be stopped (nor do you want to). Either collect it and dispose of it or set up a drain line to dispose of it.


Why do your eyes get dry during an airplane flight?

The air in airplane is especially dry because it is dehumidified. With several hundred people breathing, the air would soon be saturated. The dehumidification leads to dry eyes.


Is it more beneficial to place a dehumidifier close to an air return you have an air return in your hall closet with a louvered door so the dehumidifier fits nicely in there rather than out in the ope?

That would be pointless seeing as the air return would just pull the dehumidified air out of the room.


What exactly is compressed air?

Air that is held inside one of several types of special containers at a decreased volume is known as compressed air. For the air to be compressed, its pressure inside the container must be at a higher pressure than that of the atmospheric air outside of it.


Why must all you birthday balloons pop?

The air inside the balloons eventually escapes out of it so the balloon becomes empty of air.


What exactly is a window air conditioning unit and would be considered as a cooling system?

A window air conditioning unit is designed to fit into a window opening. these can normally be fit into a hole made into the wall as well. They are definitely a cooling system and blow dehumidified cold air and in the case of reverse cycle hot air.

When running a fan to push hot air out of a window but the air outside is hotter will the inside temperature increase?

When air is pushed out, air MUST come in somewhere to replace what you pushed out. If the air that is drawn in is hotter, the room will get hotter.


Where can find a plentum?

A plenum is a space, usually an enlarged space in air handler ductwork (forced hot air heating systems). In the plenum the air can be heated, cooled, humidified or dehumidified before being redirected down smaller ducts for the final endusers. It is often the first space through which air, being drawn in through the filters, passes into the system.


Is terracotta fragile?

Terracotta is fragile, because it must be made thin. It is made as thin as possible to prevent an artist leaving air bubbles inside of the clay. If there is air inside of the clay it will expand and break the clay while it is being fired.


What is guided wavelength?

Wavelength of electromagnetic energy conducted in a waveguide; guide wavelength for all air-filled guides is always longer than the corresponding free-space wavelength. AZB
