'''LIST OF GALLERY SUBPAGES:'''


==Some paraphrased material taken from my Sixth Edition of ''Perry's Handbook for Chemical Engineers'', published in 1984:==
*[[Air pollution emissions/Gallery]]
 
*[[Conventional coal-fired power plant/Gallery|Power plants/Gallery]]
====From "Thermodynamics" on page 4-52====
*[[Chemical plant/Gallery]]
 
*[[Flare stack/Gallery]]
The words ''system'', ''surroundings'' and ''boundary'' are first defined as:
*[[Petrochemicals/Gallery]]
 
*[[Petroleum crude oil/Gallery]]
:A ''system'' is any object, any quantity of matter, any region, etc. selected for study and mentally set apart from everything else which is then called the ''surroundings''. The imaginary envelope enclosing the ''system'' and separating it from its ''surroundings'' is called the ''boundary'' of the system.
*[[Petroleum refining processes/Gallery]]
 
*[[Process Safety Management (United States)/Gallery]]
Then ''heat'' is defined as:
*[[Smog/Gallery]]
 
*[[Los Alamos National Laboratory/Gallery|Nuclear weapons tests]]
: ''Heat'' is energy crossing that crosses a system boundary under the influence of a temperature difference or gradient between the system and its surroundings.  A quantity of heat, Q, represents an amount of energy in transit between a system and its surroundings and is not a property of the system.
*[[Apollo program/Gallery|Apollo missions photos]]
 
====From "Modes of Heat Transfer" on page 10-8 (in "Heat Transmission" chapter)====
 
There are three fundamentals types of heat transfer: '''conduction''', '''convection''' and '''radiation'''. All three types may occur at the same time, and it is advisable to consider the heat transfer by each type in any particular case.
 
==''Heat Transfer'' (1992) by Anthony F. Mills==
 
====From "Modes of Heat Transfer"====

The top one is "Modes of Heat Transfer", Section 1.3 on page 7. Click on that snippet and it becomes a full page. This is a much more complete discussion of the three modes of heat transfer.
