nokones Posted November 19, 2025 Posted November 19, 2025 I assume this would be considered as a GMRS Athletic Exercise Ball being a 65 cm in size that matches the 462 MHz wave length which is 64.9 cm. I supposed one would expect this be a circular radiation pattern as opposed to being directional. SteveShannon, AdmiralCochrane, Raybestos and 2 others 2 3 Quote

That made me fall down a rabbit hole of describing something at work. Here is the related HVAC super trivia rabbit hole: You may have noticed that HVAC drain lines are sized massively larger than the water that runs out of them. As dictated by International Plumbing Code, condensate drain lines are sized for gravity flow drainage, as if the full BTU capacity of the machine removed water from the air flowing thru the machine without doing any sensible heat temperature change. Air would enter at some very high humidity (possibly greater than 100% RH or perhaps at a greater CFM flow rate than the fan could actually move it) at, let's say 90° and leave at 0% RH at 90°. The drain size must allow gravity flow exit of that calculated volume of water flow. This would not be isenthalpic/isoenthalpic, but the opposite, perhaps "endoenthalpic". SteveShannon 1 Quote
