  2. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...

  3. Isohedral figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isohedral_figure

    Similarly, a k-isohedral tiling has k separate symmetry orbits (it may contain m different face shapes, for m = k, or only for some m < k). [ 6 ] ("1-isohedral" is the same as "isohedral".) A monohedral polyhedron or monohedral tiling ( m = 1) has congruent faces, either directly or reflectively, which occur in one or more symmetry positions.

  4. Pascal's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_law

    Pressure in water and air. Pascal's law applies for fluids. Pascal's principle is defined as: A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed incompressible fluid at rest is transmitted equally and undiminished to all points in all directions throughout the fluid, and the force due to the pressure acts at right angles to the enclosing walls.

  5. Gas laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_laws

    The laws describing the behaviour of gases under fixed pressure, volume, amount of gas, and absolute temperature conditions are called gas laws.The basic gas laws were discovered by the end of the 18th century when scientists found out that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.

  6. Ideal gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas

    R is the gas constant, which must be expressed in units consistent with those chosen for pressure, volume and temperature. For example, in SI units R = 8.3145 J⋅K −1 ⋅mol −1 when pressure is expressed in pascals, volume in cubic meters, and absolute temperature in kelvin. The ideal gas law is an extension of experimentally discovered ...

  7. International Standard Atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard...

    the ideal gas law in molar form, which relates pressure, density, and temperature: P = ρ R s p e c i f i c T {\displaystyle \ P=\rho R_{\rm {specific}}T} at each geopotential altitude, where g is the standard acceleration of gravity , and R specific is the specific gas constant for dry air (287.0528J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1 ).

  8. Equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_state

    At present, there is no single equation of state that accurately predicts the properties of all substances under all conditions. An example of an equation of state correlates densities of gases and liquids to temperatures and pressures, known as the ideal gas law, which is roughly accurate for weakly polar gases at low pressures and moderate temperatures.

  9. Isentropic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_process

    For an isentropic flow of a perfect gas, several relations can be derived to define the pressure, density and temperature along a streamline. Note that energy can be exchanged with the flow in an isentropic transformation, as long as it doesn't happen as heat exchange. An example of such an exchange would be an isentropic expansion or ...
