  2. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    Sometimes specific volume is expressed in terms of the number of cubic centimeters occupied by one gram of a substance. In this case, the unit is the centimeter cubed per gram (cm 3 /g or cm 3 ·g −1). To convert m 3 /kg to cm 3 /g, multiply by 1000; conversely, multiply by 0.001. Specific volume is inversely proportional to density. If the ...

  3. Volume (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_(thermodynamics)

    In thermodynamics, the volume of a system is an important extensive parameter for describing its thermodynamic state. The specific volume, an intensive property, is the system's volume per unit mass. Volume is a function of state and is interdependent with other thermodynamic properties such as pressure and temperature.

  4. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    Density is the substance's mass per unit volume, or total mass divided by total volume. [21] Specific volume is total volume divided by mass, or the inverse of density. [22] The volumetric flow rate or discharge is the volume of fluid which passes through a given surface per unit time.

  5. Reduced properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_properties

    The reduced specific volume (or "pseudo-reduced specific volume") of a fluid is computed from the ideal gas law at the substance's critical pressure and temperature: [1]

  6. Intensive and extensive properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_and_extensive...

    All its intensive properties, such as the mass per volume (mass density) or volume per mass (specific volume), must remain the same in each half. The temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it, so temperature is an intensive quantity.

  7. List of thermodynamic properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermodynamic...

    "Specific" properties are expressed on a per mass basis. If the units were changed from per mass to, for example, per mole, the property would remain as it was (i.e., intensive or extensive ). Regarding work and heat

  8. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    Specific volume is the volume of the mixture (dry air plus the water vapor) containing one unit of mass of "dry air". The SI units are cubic meters per kilogram of dry air; other units are cubic feet per pound of dry air. The inverse of specific volume is usually confused as the density of the mixture. [11]

  9. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol −1 ⋅K −1 = 3 R per mole of atoms (see the last column of this table).
