B How much heat energy can give out put by ionization gas?

AI Thread Summary
Ionized gas, or plasma, can transfer significant energy, particularly when accelerated electrons and ions interact at high energy levels. The maximum temperature achievable through ionization depends on various factors, including the type of gas and the energy applied. Ionization creates positive ions and free electrons, with an average energy requirement of 30–40 eV to form an ion pair. The discussion highlights the complexity of quantifying heat energy output from ionized gases, suggesting that the original question may be too vague for a precise answer. Understanding these dynamics is essential for applications involving ionized gases.

Flame is ionized gas. You can transfer a lot of energy by setting something on fire.

What you wrote is not a sentence, and I don't understand it. I suspect, however, the question is too vague to answer.
 

Thread 'Detection of hot spots with a thermal (non-radiometric) camera'

Hello, We have a thermal camera and its purpose is to detect hot spots at different distances. We made an experiment with a JPEG picture and we noticed the following: At the same distance, one object at 600 degrees and an object at 38 degrees (human body) have the same pixel intensity (255 in grayscale). The image adjusted when the 600 degrees object exited the scene (parts of the human body and background became brighter). We will make a detection algorithm and we need to make sure only...

Thread 'Basic thermal energy transfer physics: Insulation value in open airways vs sealed airways'

Been around 40 years since I took basic physics in college and while I remember doing some examples of insulation values / energy conduction, I doubt I could to the math now even if I could find the formulas. I have some some corrugated plastic sheet (think of the plastic signs you see on the side of the road) that is used in bee hives. Also have some used in a green house though a bit different in dimensions than this example but the general approach should still apply. Typically, both...

Thread 'Using battery energy to heat a battery…'

Problem: You’re an Uber driver with a Tesla Model 3. Today’s low: 30F, high: 65F. You want to reach a USD$ profit target in the least number of hours, but your choices could have added cost. Do you preheat the battery only when you are headed to the charging station (to increase the charging rate by warming the battery — however the battery might not be “warm enough” when your reach the charger and thus slower charging rates), or do you always “navigate to the charger” the entire day (which...
