  2. Phasor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasor

    Phasor notation (also known as angle notation) is a mathematical notation used in electronics engineering and electrical engineering.A vector whose polar coordinates are magnitude and angle is written . [13] can represent either the vector (⁡, ⁡) or the complex number ⁡ + ⁡ =, according to Euler's formula with =, both of which have magnitudes of 1.

  3. Lever rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lever_rule

    In chemistry, the lever rule is a formula used to determine the mole fraction (x i) or the mass fraction (w i) of each phase of a binary equilibrium phase diagram.It can be used to determine the fraction of liquid and solid phases for a given binary composition and temperature that is between the liquidus and solidus line.

  4. Partition coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_coefficient

    In the chemical and pharmaceutical sciences, both phases usually are solvents. [2] Most commonly, one of the solvents is water, while the second is hydrophobic, such as 1-octanol. [3] Hence the partition coefficient measures how hydrophilic ("water-loving") or hydrophobic ("water-fearing") a chemical substance is

  5. Phase factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_factor

    For any complex number written in polar form (such as r e iθ), the phase factor is the complex exponential (e iθ), where the variable θ is the phase of a wave or other periodic function. The phase factor is a unit complex number, i.e. a complex number of absolute value 1. It is commonly used in quantum mechanics and optics.

  6. Phasor approach to fluorescence lifetime and spectral imaging

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasor_approach_to...

    The amplitude and the phase of the waveform is transformed into a vector where the phase is translated to the angle between the phasor vector and X-axis and the amplitude is translated to vector length or magnitude. In this concept the representation and the analysis becomes very simple and the addition of two wave forms is realized by their ...

  7. Symmetrical components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetrical_components

    Set of three unbalanced phasors, and the necessary symmetrical components that sum up to the resulting plot at the bottom. In 1918 Charles Legeyt Fortescue presented a paper [4] which demonstrated that any set of N unbalanced phasors (that is, any such polyphase signal) could be expressed as the sum of N symmetrical sets of balanced phasors, for values of N that are prime.

  8. Phasor measurement unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasor_measurement_unit

    Using a PMU, it is simple to detect abnormal waveform shapes. A waveform shape described mathematically is called a phasor.. A phasor measurement unit (PMU) is a device used to estimate the magnitude and phase angle of an electrical phasor quantity (such as voltage or current) in the electricity grid using a common time source for synchronization.

  9. Non-random two-liquid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-random_two-liquid_model

    The non-random two-liquid model [1] (abbreviated NRTL model) is an activity coefficient model introduced by Renon and Prausnitz in 1968 that correlates the activity coefficients of a compound with its mole fractions in the liquid phase concerned. It is frequently applied in the field of chemical engineering to calculate phase equilibria.
