  Effective Temperature Control for Cement Kiln Off-Gases
Effective off-gas temperature control without unwanted side effects can be achieved in many cement plants with state-of-the-art evaporative spray technology.
Gas temperatures have elevated in recent years from as low as 180°C to over 370°C. This is coincident with a higher proportion of "dry" operation kilns.
Another reason for effective temperature control is that pollution control regulations continue to be tightened.

 Effect of Thermal Contact Resistance on Effective Contact Temperature Textile Research Journal - Find Articles
Temperatures at contact interfaces in the absence of thermal contact resistance are defined as substantial ones on the boundary between the skin and the object.
The maximum non-dimensional temperature change at a receptive site decreases when thermal contact resistance becomes larger, and it corresponds exactly to the usual experience that an object's temperature is felt to be nearer to the body temperature in the presence of thermal contact resistance.
We propose calling this temperature the "effective contact temperature." It is defined by the initial temperature, thermal contact resistance, and thermal properties of the skin and the object.

As the previous chapter demonstrated, it is probably not meaningful to ascribe a single kinetic temperature to a region of a satellite, as the slopes of the IRIS spectra probably indicate the ubiquitous presence of local temperature variations with magnitudes of several tens of degrees.
Figures 13 and 14 are isotherm plots of the effective temperature as a function of latitude and time of day on the three icy satellites.
The abovementioned large scatter in effective temperatures on Callisto is perhaps due to the wide range of viewing geometries (which will enhance beaming effects) and the close spacing of the isotherms seen on Fig.

 The effective rotation temperature of the negative glow in nitrogen
These results show that the effective temperature increases slightly with the pressure and current-strength, and to a much greater extent with the temperature of the furnace surrounding the discharge tube.
At high temperatures it becomes less than the temperature of the furnance, and an explanation of this surprising behaviour is sought.
It is concluded that, in this particular case at least, the effective temperature is not identical with the gas temperature though it depends in part on this quantity; it depends also on other factors not yet accounted for in the theory.

 Ch05
Introduced by Houghton and Yaglou, this measure of heat sensation is defined as the temperature of saturated motionless air that would produce the same sensation of heat or cold as the combination of temperature, humidity, and air motion under consideration.
For optimal comfort in air-conditioned buildings, the recommended range of effective temperatures is 22.2-23.3 °C (72-74 °F), corresponding to drybulb temperatures of 25.6-26.7 °C (78-80 °F), at 50% relative humidity.
The inside effective temperature can be reduced using only evaporation in such climates, merely by ensuring a continuous air speed of 0.3 m/s (60 ft/min) over a continuously wet surface.

 McKAy - Tunneling of a String Through a Potential Barrier
effective frequency given by the product of the attack frequency and an entropy factor, which is the ratio of the product of normal mode frequencies in the pinned state to those in the activated state.
The effective temperature is given by the actual temperature above this cross—over, while below it, the effective temperature is given by the ground state energy, calculated using the effective frequency.
In this case, the lowest frequencies in the entropy factor cancel in pairs, and therefore the effective frequency is greater than that of the lowest normal mode.

 Eddington's Temperature of Space
In the first page of this chapter, Eddington computes an effective temperature of 3.18 K, but this has nothing to do with the 2.725 K flbody spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB).
the effective temperature corresponding to this density is 3.18
Thus the 3.18 K effective temperature of the interstellar radiation field is no more relevant to the CMB than the 300 K effective temperature of interplanetary space near the Earth.

 Quantum Noise & Effective Noise Temperature (Text)
This means that in the optical regime, there is more noise associated with the statistics of the arrival of a given flux of optical photons.
In microwave communication systems, it is the thermal kT noise of the receiver and sky temperature that limits the detection sensitivity.
In optical systems, it is usually (ideally) the case that it is the basic quantum shot noise that limits the detection sensitivity.

It's the temperature that would be measured by an infrared thermometer (radiometer) in outer space, pointed at the Earth.
This effective temperature of 255 K is the temperature the Earth's Surface would have if it didn't have an atmosphere.
The effective temperature we calculate in this manner is much warmer than the actual temperature of the Earth (288 K), because we made a number of simplifying assumptions.

 [No title]
When pavement temperatures are very low, the amount of deicer used must be so high to work that its use may not be very practical or effective.
For each deicing chemical, there is a temperature above which the chemicals can be expected to be effective in a practical sense — the effective temperature.
That doesn’t mean that you can’t use salt below the effective temperature, and at times it may be the smart thing to do (such as when pavement temps are expected to rise), but you do need to be aware of the reduced effectiveness.

Abstract: Effective temperatures and distances of eclipsing binaries computed through Hipparcos trigonometric parallaxes were compared with the photometric determinations.
The former were based on the radius, the apparent visual magnitude and the bolometric correction of the star, whereas the latter were obtained from standard calibrations using Stromgren or Johnson colour indices.
