Hello Wikingers

I became interested in the subject Thermofluid after I took my first Thermography in Frankfurt University. Thermography is basically the same as a XRay of picture is taken. And the difference is that It is not with thermo (heat-cold) related.

Thermography is taken after you drink a fluid mixture to bring contrast to your inner organs so that it is better to see and analization is better. The drink covers basically the first layers of your organs.

The second part of taking a Thermography is when you become a injection of a Thermofluid which is injected a few seconds into your body (like getting a vaccine) before the actualle pictures are taken. This enjection is to bring out contrast in the artery areas of the inner organs. You can even feel at the momment of injection how your body becomes for a few seconds temperator change. Mostly Hot. Then the graphic would at these momments be taken.

Thermography is used in some cases of Stomach, Liver, Nieren, Intestence, problems were they can not be analized in a more conventional way.

[edit] Liquids are incompressible

Deleted this sentence:

Generally fluids are incompressible and so thermofluids is the study of fluids when they are being applied in applications.

Fluids includes gases, which are quite compressible.

This seems redundant to me: "being applied in applications".

It seems to me that the word is a contraction of "thermodynamics and fluid mechanics", the latter of which encompasses fluid dynamics and fluid statics.

Added mention that phase-change, etc., can be important, too. -- Ac44ck 22:35, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
