Leakage — describes an unwanted loss, or leak, of something which escapes from its proper location. In everyday usage, leakage is the gradual escape of matter through a leak hole. [ [http://www.m w.com/dictionary/leaking Merriam Webster] ] In different… … Wikipedia
Leakage inductance — is that property of an electrical transformer that causes a winding to appear to have some inductance in series with the mutually coupled transformer windings. This is due to imperfect coupling of the windings and creation of leakage flux which… … Wikipedia
Stack effect — is the movement of air into and out of buildings, chimneys, flue gas stacks, or other containers, and is driven by buoyancy. Buoyancy occurs due to a difference in indoor to outdoor air density resulting from temperature and moisture differences … Wikipedia
Magnetic flux leakage — (MFL) is a magnetic method of nondestructive testing that is used to detect corrosion and pitting in steel structures, most commonly pipelines and storage tanks. The basic principle is that a powerful magnet is used to magnetize the steel. At… … Wikipedia
Pockels effect — The Pockels effect, or Pockels electro optic effect, produces birefringence in an optical medium induced by a constant or varying electric field. It is distinguished from the Kerr effect by the fact that the birefringence is proportional to the… … Wikipedia

Spectral leakage — is an effect in the frequency analysis of signals where small amounts of signal energy are observed in frequency components that do not exist in the original waveform. The term leakage refers to the fact that it appears as if some energy has… … Wikipedia
Carbon leakage — occurs when there is an increase in carbon dioxide emissions in one country as a result of an emissions reduction by a second country with a strict climate policy.Carbon leakage may occur for a number of reasons: * if the emissions policy of a… … Wikipedia
Hall effect — For the Colombian band, see The Hall Effect (band). The Hall effect is the production of a voltage difference (the Hall voltage) across an electrical conductor, transverse to an electric current in the conductor and a magnetic field perpendicular … Wikipedia
