Example sentencesExamples
- All you need to do is look for layers in which the atmosphere is superadiabatic, which is where the lapse rate is steeper than the dry adiabats.
- Thus, this error may not necessarily be as evident in the temperature measurements, explaining why superadiabatic temperature gradients are not always measured for all instances of dry layers.
- Therefore, combustion in the superadiabatic regime significantly extends conventional flammability limits well into the ultra-lean zone.
- I use the Schwartzchild gradient to find the superadiabatic gradient, because if I use the Ledoux gradient, then the superad. gradient is always negative.
- The theory of the superadiabatic compression BP was developed and the experimental installation was created.
