Definition / Whakamārama

Supercritical is the condition where geothermal fluids are above the pressure and temperature conditions to exist in a state that is neither solid, liquid or gas.

Ko te tuawhiti te āhuatanga e piki ai te waiwhatu i tua atu i ngā hanga pēhanga, paemahana e riro tonu ai te hanga eharai te totoka rānei, i te wai rānei, i te hau rānei.

USAGE / Whakatauira

Supercritical geothermal liquid can’t be seen naturally on the surface as it needs an incredibly high temperature and immense pressure to stay supercritical.

Kāore te waiwhatu tuawhiti e kitea noatia i te mata o te whenua i te mea me kaha ngihangiha te wera, me taumaha rukiruki hoki te pēhanga kia mau tonu ai te hanga tuawhiti.
