In fire protection engineering, the K-factor formula is used to calculate the volumetric flow rate from a nozzle. Spray nozzles can for example be fire sprinklers or water mist nozzles, hose reel nozzles, water monitors and deluge fire system nozzles.
The K-factor is the bending capacity of sheet metal, and by extension the forumulae used to calculate this. [1] [2] [3] Mathematically it is an engineering aspect of geometry. [4] Such is its intricacy in precision sheet metal bending [5] (with press brakes in particular) that its proper application in engineering has been termed an art. [4] [5]
In transportation engineering, the K factor is defined as the proportion of annual average daily traffic occurring in an hour. [1] This factor is used for designing and analyzing the flow of traffic on highways. K factors must be calculated at a continuous count station, usually an "automatic traffic recorder", for a year before being determined.
K-factor (Elo rating system), a constant used in Elo rating system; K-factor (marketing), the growth rate of websites, apps, or a customer base; K-factor (sheet metal), the ratio of location of the neutral line to the material thickness; The K Factor, a fictional TV show within Harry Hill's TV Burp; Bondi k-factor, the "k" in Bondi k-calculus
Pressure and temperature sensors providing pulses can be used to determine mass flow, with division of the pulses by the K-factor, or multiplication with the inverse of the K-factor providing factored totalization, and rate indication. Furthermore, by dividing the pulse rate by the K-Factor, the volumetric throughput per unit time of the rate ...

A video on safety when using explosives in the workplace. Explosives safety refers to the practices taken during the use of explosives to prevent injury or death. Explosives include chemicals such as TNT or dynamite as well as other kinds of explosives, such as land mines, C-4s, and IEDs.
Where is the time to pellet in one rotor, and is the K-factor of that rotor. is the K-factor of the other rotor, and , the time to pellet in the other rotor, can be calculated. In this manner, one does not need access to the exact rotor cited in a protocol, as long as the K-factor can be calculated.
