CORPUSNOUN► conductivity · The most obvious differences are the lower density and thermal conductivity of plastics compared with glass.· The relatively static lattice in a diamond ensures that the scattering is at a minimum and the thermal conductivity is exceptionally good.· In fact, at room temperature a diamond has a thermal conductivity about six times higher than a piece of copper.· This high thermal conductivity gives diamond a small but useful role in the semiconductor industry. ► energy · The thermal energy extracted from the reactor would boil a propellant liquid.· High-temperature electrolysis uses a large amount of electrical and thermal energy.· Near absolute zero, however, molecules have much less thermal energy.· Such molecules are in general less abundant than ground state molecules, because of the Boltzmann distribution of thermal energy.· For example, when coal is burned, chemical energy is transformed into thermal energy.· Rocket engineers speak loosely of thermal energy being converted into kinetic energy in the engine bell.· Consequently, more thermal energy is required before the crystal becomes unstable, and T m is raised.· Any thermal energy is shared by the whole lattice rather than a single nucleus. ► expansion · It could make or break with vibration or thermal expansion as the machine warmed up.· So it is difficult to estimate thermal expansion as a result of surface warming.· In the latter case, thermal expansion of the wire proportional to the heating is sensed by mechanical means.· The occurrence of scrub and forest fires provides another mechanism whereby rocks can be subjected to significant thermal expansion and contraction.· Some of the illustrations of shattered pebbles attributed to thermal expansion and contraction are of flint and quartzites.· The importance of thermal expansion, the third mechanism of salt weathering, has yet to be fully evaluated. ► insulation · Softboard has a spongy texture, which gives it good sound and thermal insulation properties.· If extra thermal insulation is required flat insulation panels can be laid underneath the profiled Rockwell insulation panels.· Grants may also be available for thermal insulation, or repairs to properties in clearance areas.· The detailed design of the thermal insulation and of the technical elements of the house will be described in the following chapters.· In any case, high-vacuum equipment is needed to ensure adequate thermal insulation.· The ability to operate at these temperatures is advantageous, because liquid nitrogen is cheap and the devices need less thermal insulation.· The remaining third covered anything from thermal insulation and heating through to fire safety and maintenance problems.· The biggest item would be thermal insulation - £5 billion. 1relating to or caused by heat:  thermal energy2thermal clothing is made from special material to keep you warm in very cold weather:  thermal underwear3thermal water is heated naturally under the earth:  thermal springs thermal1 adjectivethermal2 noun thermalthermal2 noun Examples EXAMPLES FROM THE CORPUS Great granite fortresses sprang up in the misty vales and from them Dragon Princes rode the thermals over sullen volcanoes. In general, the same clothing was used underneath - Rhoval/Modal thermals and Polartec 200 fleece. In this way it is possible to use the lift low down with safety, provided that the thermals are not too turbulent. Soon the kites were circling the thermals, a great helix of wide-winged birds sailing the vectors in sweeping corkscrew spirals. The former occurs both within the thermals and in the slowly downward drifting cold fluid between the thermals. This creates a breathing space between inner clothes and the waterproof outer skin; important when only thermals are being worn underneath. word sets WORD SETS► Meteorology anticyclone, nounarid, adjectivebarometer, nouncirrus, nounclimate, nounclimatic, adjectivecloudbank, nouncold front, nouncontrary, adjectivecumulus, nouncyclone, noundeluge, noundepression, nounduster, noundust storm, nounequatorial, adjectivefront, nounfrontal system, nounheadwind, nounhumidity, nounhurricane, nouninversion, nounisobar, nounisotherm, nounjet stream, nounleeward, adjectivelow, nounlow-pressure, nounmaelstrom, nounmirage, nounmonsoon, nounnimbus, nounnorth, adjectivenortheast, adjectivenortheaster, nounnortheasterly, adjectivenortherly, adjectivenorthwest, adjectivenorthwester, nounnorthwesterly, adjectiveonshore, adjectivepeasouper, nounpowder, nounprecipitation, nounrainfall, nounrain gauge, nounrainstorm, nounsandstorm, nounsea breeze, nounsemitropical, adjectivesheet lightning, nounshipping forecast, nounshower, nounshowery, adjectivesirocco, nounsleet, nounslush, nounsmog, nounsouth, adjectivesoutheast, adjectivesoutheasterly, adjectivesoutherly, adjectivesouthwest, adjectivesouthwesterly, adjectivesprinkle, nounsquall, nounsqually, adjectivestill, adjectivestorm, nounstorm cloud, nounstormy, adjectivestrength, nounsubside, verbsubtropical, adjectivesub-zero, adjectivetailwind, nountempest, nounthaw, verbthaw, nounthermal, nounthermometer, nounthunder, nounthunder, verbthunderbolt, nounthunderclap, nounthundercloud, nounthunderstorm, nounthundery, adjectivetidal, adjectivetidal wave, nountornado, nountorrid, adjectivetrade wind, nountropical, adjectivetrough, nountsunami, nounturbulence, nounturbulent, adjectivetwister, nountyphoon, nounwarm front, nounwaterspout, nounweather, nounweatherman, nounweather vane, nounwest, adjectivewesterly, adjectivewhirlwind, nounwhiteout, noun 1[countable] a rising current of warm air used by birds2thermals [plural] British English informal special warm clothing, especially underwear, worn under your other clothes
