Frictional heating effects

This consideration on frictional heat effects is only applicable in this simple form, if the thermostatting of the column follows the so-called isothermal concept, in other words the thermostat attempts to keep the column at a defined temperature by removing the frictional heat. The larger the column diameter the more difficult it is to complete heat dissipation. Alternative to the removal of frictional heat is the adiabatic column thermostatting [4] where in the ideal case the column would be thermally insulated and all frictional heat remains in the column. Thermostats without a fan for heat circulation come closer to this adiabatic mode...
