There is no conversion process, no other inputs or outputs, and no loss. There's also space efficient - heat output/cm3. Space efficiency, material efficiency, cost efficiency etc. But this thread is about efficiency, which is heat out over heat in. NT |

You obviously subscribe to the Humpty Dumpty principle:- When I use a word, Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, it means just what I choose it to mean neither more nor less. The question is, said Alice, whether you can make words mean so many different things.
