In a heating process, a heat flow diagram in which the quantities of heat in the various items of a heat balance are represented by the width of a band is called the__________________?

Correct answer: C. Sankey diagram

  • A. Ostwald chart
  • B. Cox chart
  • C. Sankey diagram
  • D. None of these
