Basic Thermodynamic Processes

The word 'thermodynamics' can be divided into two words, 'thermo' and 'dynamics'. The word thermo deals with the heat and thermal phenomenon, whereas dynamics deals with forces or external agent that drives the heat flow or aids in the motion of heat.

What is the tolerance zone (and Material Boundary) for a non-cylindrical feature such as a slot or groove?

What is rectification explanation

Answer the following questions based on scaling arguments, i.e., by applying “the variable X must be proportional to the Zth power of variable Y because of some relevant physical principle”-type reasoning. A. In a surface passivation process for Si wafers, the required processing time to create a 0.1 micron thick SiO2 layer on a pure Si wafer was 2 hours. Estimate the process time required to create an SiO2 layer of thickness 0.15 microns on a pure Si wafer under identical processing conditions. B. A puddle of volatile liquid of initial thickness of 1 cm was found to evaporate to form a thinner 0.5 cm layer in 1 day. How much longer would it take for the liquid layer to evaporate completely?
