These effects of differential vapor pressures on isotope ratios are important for gases and liquids at near-ambient temperatures. As temperature rises, the differences for volatile materials become less and less. However, diffusion processes are also important, and these increase in importance as temperature rises, particularly in rocks and similar natural materials. Minerals can exchange oxygen with the atmosphere, or rocks can affect each other by diffusion of ions from one type into another and vice versa. Such changes can be used to interpret the temperatures to which rocks have been subjected during or after their formation. 

In our sample calculations (Example 3 1.1) we have chosen the colour of the outdoors surface as light grey and taking the vveathering effect into account, have considered the coefficient of both absorption and emission as 0.65. The manufacturer, depending on the colour and site conditions, may choose a suitable coefficient. It is, however, advisable to be conservative when deciding the temperature rise due to solar radiation to be on the safe side. 

The inverters are either voltage source or current source (see Figure 7-7a and b). There are other variations, but they apply to drivers smaller than the ones used with compressors. However, pulse-width-modulated (PWM) (see Figure 7-7c), transistorized units are less complicated and are relatively maintenance-free with reliable units available to at least 500 hp. For all but the smaller compressors, the current source inverter is the one typically used. With a six-step voltage source, a rule of thumb has been to size the motor at two-thirds of its rating so as not to exceed the insulation temperature rise. For current source motors, the output torque is not constant with decreased speed, which fortunately is compatible with most compressors, as torque tends to follow speed. For current source drives, one needs to upsize the motor captive transformer by approximately 15% to account for harmonic heating effects. 

Whilst temperature rises at constant pressure cause a decrease in viscosity, pressure rises at constant temperature cause an increase in viscosity since this causes a decrease in free volume. It is in fact found that within the normal processing temperature range for a polymer it is possible to consider an increase in pressure as equivalent, in its effect on viscosity, to a decrease in temperature.
