GC: n CT: How big is a wind turbine? Industrial wind turbines are a lot bigger than ones you might see in a schoolyard or behind someone’s house. The widely used GE 1.5-megawatt model, for example, consists of 116-ft blades atop a 212-ft tower for a total height of 328
GC: n CT: Different threads were posted in order to clear up this question, but there are some points that I would need to confirm: When you become a full-node (NOT miner, you just downloaded the full blockchain with a wallet or similar), are you automatically a validator? Meaning that every
GC: n CT: A blockchain is a distributed database that keeps a continuously-growing list of records protected from revision and tampering. Basically, the blockchain technology is a public ledger that records all transactions that have ever occurred. The official blockchain public site lets any person to get these transactions in
CG: n CT: Blue hydrogen refers to hydrogen derived from natural gas, which is a fossil fuel, however, most (albeit not all) the CO2 emitted during the process would be captured and stored underground (carbon sequestration) or bound in a solid product (such as bricks) and utilized. This is called carbon

GC: n CT: In order for Bluetooth wireless technology enabled devices to communicate with one another, the Bluetooth wireless technology enabled devices must communicate in the same language also known as a profile. A Bluetooth wireless technology profile is a specification that defines the minimum requirements that the Bluetooth wireless
CG: n CT: If users reach a deep page after traveling from the homepage through all the ancestor pages of that page, they will have a fairly clear understanding of where they are in the site’s information hierarchy. But when they skip some of these levels (for example, because they
GC: n CT: Bud pruning (pinching) and leaf pruning both aim to develop small branches and leaves. These methods have the same effect as branch pruning. They are applicable when branch pruning may not apply, such as when the bonsai trees have completed shapes, or when you only want to
GC: n CT: A buffer tank is typically used when there is a variable cooling requirement. In such applications the tank is used as storage to cover peak loads or in situations when a surge in demand exceeds the capacity of the cooling system. S: GRUNDFOS – http://www.grundfos.com/service-support/encyclopedia-search/buffer-tank.html (last access:
GC: n CT: TCloud technologies and the use of layered internet dashboard interfaces continue to be developed and enhanced to improve the exchange of building automation system data. This may allow the consolidation of large data to evaluate performance, review historical and real-time trends, and the establishing of benchmarks. “Data
CG: n CT: From 1954 to 1963 the burial ground was used for some of the worst waste generated at the Hanford nuclear reservation’s 300 Area just north of Richland. At the 300 Area uranium fuel was fabricated to be irradiated at Hanford’s reactors to produce plutonium for the nation’s nuclear
GC: n CT: Conduction is another way that heat moves. Heat is a form of energy, and when it comes into contact with matter (Anything that you can touch physically) it makes the atoms and molecules move. Once atoms or molecules are moving, they collide with other atoms or molecules,
GC: n CT: Butanol is a four-carbon alcohol. Alcohols also include methanol (1-carbon), ethanol (2-carbon) and propanol (3-carbon). Butanol is used primarily as an industrial solvent. The worldwide market is about 350 million gallons per year with the U.S. market accounting for about 220 million gallons per year. Butanol currently
GC: n CT: The mathematics of chaos has been popularized through the notion of the butterfly effect: the possibility that a large storm in New England may be caused by a butterfly wing flap in China. There are problems with this simple notion. These problems are keys to recognizing the
GC: n CT: A byte is a term first coined by Werner Buchholz in 1956 and later became more of a standard thanks to Bob Bemer and others. A byte is data equal to either seven or eight bits depending if it needs error correction (parity). You can think of
GC: n CT: A cache (pronounced CASH) is a place to store something temporarily in a computing environment. In computing, active data is often cached to shorten data access times, reduce latency and improve input/output (I/O). Because almost all application workload is dependent upon I/O operations, caching is used to
CG: n CT: The fundamental and lowest frequency natural modes in a cantilever fan blade exhibit significant amounts of flexure and torsion coupled by pretwist and operation in a rotational force field. Consequently the flutter estimation of such blades requires an accurate structural description that incorporates these two effects, amongst
GC: n CT: Capacitor is an electronic component that stores electric charge. The capacitor is made of 2 close conductors (usually plates) that are separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate electric charge when connected to a power source. One plate accumulates positive charge and the other plate accumulates
GC: n CT: The capillary zone, or fringe zone, extends from the water table up to the limit of capillary rise. The thickness of the capillary fringe depends on the soil’s properties and on the homogeneity of the soil, mainly on the pore size distribution. Because of the irregularities in
GC: n CT: What is BIOMASS? Biomass is biological material derived from living, or recently living organisms. In the context of biomass for energy this is often used to mean plant based material, but biomass can equally apply to both animal and vegetable derived material. – Chemical composition Biomass is
GC: n CT: A carbon credit (often called a carbon offset) is a financial instrument that represents a tonne of CO2 (carbon dioxide) or CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent gases) removed or reduced from the atmosphere from an emission reduction project, which can be used by governments, industry or private individuals
