Thermal windows are special energy efficient windows that are designed to slow the passage of heat. Thermal windows have 2-3 panes, and many of them have non-toxic gasses between the panes. Others will have special glass that blocks UV [ulraviolet] heat from the sun. Together, the panes, gas, and special glass slow heat from passing.... In summer, thermal windows block hot outside air from entering your air conditioned home. In winter, they stop heated air from escaping. 3, record 1, English, - thermal%20window

Les fenêtres thermos, parfois appelées fenêtres à vitrage thermique, sont des fenêtres composées de plusieurs panneaux de verre écoénergétique haute performance, ce qui les rend plus écoénergétiques que les fenêtres à simple vitrage standard. [...] Les fenêtres thermos ont des panneaux de verre séparés par un espace isolé rempli de gaz. Ce gaz isolant réduit la quantité de chaleur transférée entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur de votre maison ou de votre entreprise. Pendant les mois chauds d'été, les fenêtres thermos isolées empêcheront une grande partie de la chaleur extérieure d'entrer dans la maison et pendant les mois d'hiver, moins de chaleur de l'intérieur de la maison sera évacuée vers l'extérieur. 1, record 1, French, - fen%C3%AAtre%20thermique

The best base layer fabrics are synthetics such as polyester and polypropylene, as they conduct moisture away from the skin and into the protective layer or into the air.

The Ausroc 3(A3) launch vehicle has a liquid fuelled motor that burns JA-1 kerosene with liquid oxygen, and uses regenerative cooling. The motor produces 35 kN at sea level and has a burn time of 80 seconds. The motor is gimballed to facilitate pitch and yaw control. The wall of the combustion chamber, throat and expansion nozzle consists of 102 stainless steel tubes stacked side by side running parallel to the motor axis. The tubes will be brazed together and the assembly wrapped in a carbon fibre composite. The composite wrapping is used to relieve to tubes of the hoop stress generated by the combustion pressure(2 MPa), whilst the tubes contain the combustion heat(3500 K). The top end of the motor has a kerosene inlet manifolt, oxygen dome and injector block. The kerosene inlet manifold delivers kerosene to every second motor tube, where it travels down to the arse end of the motor. Here it enters the lower kerosene manifold which is a simple plenum ring. This allows the kerosene to flow into the other alternate tubes which deliver it back up to the inlet manifold. The inlet manifold then directs the kerosene to the injector block, which sprays it and the liquid oxygen into the combustion chamber. 2, record 12, English, - liquid%20fuelled%20motor

Thermal barrier through fibres with PCM incorporated microcapsules... fibres incorporating Phase Change Material(PCM) microcapsules; these are added to the polymer solution prior to spinning. The fibres block the thermal flow, accumulating heat over long periods and limit heat losses at low temperatures. This barrier effect... is far superior to compressed aerated insulators... Conceived of the NASA astronauts gloves, these fibres find naturally applications in the apparel and protective clothing sectors. 1, record 15, English, - astronauts%26rsquo%3B%20gloves
