A device which converts the translational energy of the fluid into rotational energy of the axis or vice versa is called a "'Rankine disk actuator " '.

:: : The translational energy is of course K = mv ^ 2 / 2, and the rotational kinetic energy is U = I \ omega ^ 2 / 2.
13.
The rotational energy of a cylinder varies from one half of the translational energy ( if it is massive ) to the same as the translational energy ( if it is hollow ).

The rotational energy of a cylinder varies from one half of the translational energy ( if it is massive ) to the same as the translational energy ( if it is hollow ).
15.
Higher temperature causes fluid atoms and molecules to move faster increasing their translational energy, and thermally excites molecules to higher average amplitudes of vibrational and rotational modes ( excites the molecules to higher internal energy levels ).

Bolometers detect tiny heat input ( with noise on the order of 10 " 14 watts per square root hertz ) and had previously been developed as detectors of Infrared Radiation but here they are used to measure the internal and translational energy of a beam of atoms or molecules.
