AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between vacuum levels and the condensation of water when using a vacuum pump at high temperatures, specifically 150 degrees Celsius. It questions how vacuum deviation in the test container correlates with the quantity of water extracted, suggesting a connection to the Ideal Gas Law (PV=nRT). Additionally, it explores whether low pressure and vacuum are synonymous and seeks clarification on the distinction between vacuum level and pressure level. Understanding these relationships is crucial for optimizing vacuum pump performance and water extraction efficiency. The conversation highlights the importance of thermodynamic principles in vacuum applications.

Hi

If a vacuum pump is operated on a test container (say at 150 degree C) and as a result at the outlet,water is condensed and collected. What would be the relation between Vacuum deviation in the test container and quatity of water extracted. Is it to do with Ideal gas equation, PV=nRT?

Thanks

Hi
Low pressure and vacuum are one and the same no? Is there any difference between vacuum level and pressure level?

Thread 'Is there a white hole inside every black hole?'

This is what I am thinking. How much feasible is it? There is a white hole inside every black hole The white hole spits mass/energy out continuously The mass/energy that is spit out of a white hole drops back into it eventually. This is because of extreme space time curvature around the white hole Ironically this extreme space time curvature of the space around a white hole is caused by the huge mass/energy packed in the white hole Because of continuously spitting mass/energy which keeps...

Thread 'Is Gravity an entropic property like Surface Tension'

Why do two separately floating objects in a liquid "attract" each other ?? What if gravity is an emergent property like surface tension ? What if they both are essentially trying to *minimize disorder at the interfaces — where non-aligned polarized particles are forced to mix with each other* What if gravity is an emergent property that is trying to optimize the entropy emerging out of spin aligned quantum bits
