Company Profile:
The cutting of a grid pattern of grooves in a semiconductor material, generally for the purpose of making interconnections.
Industry:Energy
The damping of interior temperature fluctuations by massive construction.
Industry:Energy
The decomposition of organic material to alcohol, methane, etc., by organisms, such as yeast or bacteria, usually in the absence of oxygen.
Industry:Energy
The deferment of certain loads to limit electrical power demand, or the production of energy during off-peak periods for storage and use during peak demand periods.
Industry:Energy
The demand of a consumer of electricity at the time of a power supplier's peak system demand.
Industry:Energy
The demand on, or the power output of, an electrical system or any of its parts over an interval of time, as determined by the total number of kilowatt-hours divided by the units of time in the interval.
Industry:Energy
The deposition of thin films of semiconductor material by the evaporation of elemental sources in a vacuum.
Industry:Energy
The device in an air conditioner or heat pump in which the refrigerant condenses from a gas to a liquid when it is depressurized or cooled.
Industry:Energy
The device in an air conditioner or heat pump through which the refrigerant is circulated and releases heat to the surroundings when a fan blows outside air over the coils. This will return the hot vapor that entered the coil into a hot liquid upon exiting the coil.
Industry:Energy
The device in an air conditioner that distributes the filtered air from the return duct over the cooling coil/heat exchanger. This circulated air is cooled/heated and then sent through the supply duct, past dampers, and through supply diffusers to the living/working space.
