What happens to the temperature during a temperature plateau?
Decreases
Increases
Stays constant
During melting, thermal energy is stored as:
Potential
Kinetic
Electrical
PCM stands for:
Phase Change Mechanism
Phase Change Material
Potential Change Material
Long plateaus in PCMs help to:
Keep the babies warm for a long period of time
Cool the babies quickly
Heat the babies fast
During melting, PCM molecules:
Stop moving
Move more
Move less
During freezing, stored energy release as:
Potential
Kinetic
Thermal
PCMs with long plateaus:
Cool quickly
Heat longer
Reheat fast
The flat part of the heating graph shows:
Temperature Plateau
Max temperature
Cooling
During the temperature plateau, kinetic energy:
Decreases
Will remain constant
Increases
Which property of PCMs is NOT mentioned as a consideration for use in incubators?
Melting and freezing temperatures
Temperature plateau length
Electrical conductivity
