This is primarily technical terminology used in scientific, engineering, and mathematical contexts in both Brazil and the USA. It is especially prevalent in chemistry, physics, electrical engineering, and thermodynamics courses and professional applications. The concept is fundamental to understanding system behavior and is universally understood within technical communities in both countries.
