    Midsouth Chamber of Commerce (MSCC) was created to benefit of businesses within the Midsouth area. By the late 1980s, MSCC became the most powerful business advocacy organization within the area, with Jack Walingford as president. As they started using more and more computer technology, they recognized the need to use computer technology to harness the power of information they had. This case study outlines what MSCC went through when they acquired a new system to handle their operations.…

    Increased humidity put a great level of strain on the circulatory system. Humidity makes our bodies feel as if the temperature is higher. This is the result of a slower evaporation process because the air is filled with water and cannot hold much more. As a result, our bodies will produce sweat in order to cool off, but it will take longer to evaporate making the body only hotter and wet with sweat. An increase in temperature & humidity would mean a greater cardiac output to the skin to remove heat from the body. Conversely, this decreases the oxygenated blood being sent to the muscles . Once the body is introduced to heat stress due to the high humidity levels; the heart rate increases and the heart pumps more blood to the skin so it can sweat…

    The Urban Heat Island effect is known as the zone of hot air that develops over the urban areas and consequently higher temperatures than the surrounding rural area. Temperatures progressively decline as you move further from the urban areas; an example of this can be seen between Central London and the surrounding area, as there is a temperature difference of 6 degrees. However, even small urban areas can have urban heat island effects.…

    Air Pressure

    • 451 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Air is composed of molecules. Air is matter. It has mass and takes up space. Air is composed of different gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases. Air molecules are in constant motion. As they move, they come in contact with surfaces. Air molecules push and press on the surfaces they contact. The amount of force per unit area that air molecules exert on a surface is called air pressure. (What is Air Pressure 6) Air pressure is caused by all of the air molecules in the Earth's atmosphere pressing down on the Earth's surfaces. We can measure air pressure to help us predict weather conditions around the world. Temperature also affects air pressure because air contracts when it cools and expands when it is heated. So if air above a region of Earth cools, it does not extend to as high an altitude as the surrounding air. In this case, its pressure at higher temperature is lower than in the surroundings even when the pressure at the surface is the same as in surrounding areas. Then air flows into the cooler region at high altitude, making the total weight of air above the region greater than in the surroundings. This is a "high". The cool air descends to the earth's surface. Near the surface, the falling air spreads out,…

    Plate Heat Exchangers

    Rising demand for tenant space in commercial buildings and an ever-increasing focus on reducing energy consumption have created numerous challenges for designers and contractors. These challenges include the requirement for mechanical room optimisation and energy recovery or free cooling systems such as water-side economisers, geothermal heating/cooling and deep-lake water cooling. There is now, more than ever, a growing demand for compact heat exchangers capable of transferring heat at low approach temperatures to achieve greater temperature crossing, which saves energy. In addition, factors such as global warming, high frequency of building conversions, and tighter plant rooms have led to a demand for heat exchangers that can be maintained easily and are flexible with regards to future expansion.…

    Greenhouses

    • 1751 Words

    A greenhouse is a structural building with different types of covering materials, such as a glass or plastic roof and frequently glass or plastic walls; it heats up because incoming visible solar radiation (for which the glass is transparent) from the sun is absorbed by plants,soil, and other things inside the building. Air warmed by the heat from hot interior surfaces is retained in the building by the roof and wall. In addition, the warmed structures and plants inside the greenhouse re-radiate some of their thermal energy in the infrared spectrum, to which glass is partly opaque, so some of this energy is also trapped inside the glasshouse. However, this latter process is a minor player compared with the former (convective) process. Thus, the primary heating mechanism of a greenhouse is convection. This can be demonstrated by opening a small window near the roof of a greenhouse: the temperature drops considerably. This principle is the basis of the autovent automatic cooling system. Thus, the glass used for a greenhouse works as a barrier to air flow, and its effect is to trap energy within the greenhouse. The air that is warmed near the ground is prevented from rising indefinitely and flowing away.…
