  2. Thermodynamic databases for pure substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_databases...

    Thermodynamic data is usually presented as a table or chart of function values for one mole of a substance (or in the case of the steam tables, one kg). A thermodynamic datafile is a set of equation parameters from which the numerical data values can be calculated.

  3. Ampacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

    The ampacity of a conductor depends on its ability to dissipate heat without damage to the conductor or its insulation. This is a function of the insulation temperature rating, the electrical resistance of the conductor material, the ambient temperature, and the ability of the insulated conductor to dissipate heat to the surroundings.

  4. Neher–McGrath method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neher–McGrath_method

    By estimating the temperature of the cables, the safe long-term current-carrying capacity of the cables can be calculated. J. H. Neher and M. H. McGrath were two electrical engineers who wrote a paper in 1957 about how to calculate the capacity of current (ampacity) of cables. [1]

  5. Arrhenius plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhenius_plot

    In consequence, the reaction rate constant increases rapidly with temperature , as shown in the direct plot of against . (Mathematically, at very high temperatures so that E a ≪ R T {\displaystyle E_{\text{a}}\ll RT} , k {\displaystyle k} would level off and approach A {\displaystyle A} as a limit, but this case does not occur under practical ...

  6. Sheet resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_resistance

    This is an advantage, because sheet resistance of 1 Ω could be taken out of context and misinterpreted as bulk resistance of 1 ohm, whereas sheet resistance of 1 Ω/sq cannot thus be misinterpreted. The reason for the name "ohms per square" is that a square sheet with sheet resistance 10 ohm/square has an actual resistance of 10 ohm ...

  7. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    An orthographic projection of the 3D p–v–T graph showing pressure and temperature as the vertical and horizontal axes collapses the 3D plot into the standard 2D pressure–temperature diagram. When this is done, the solid–vapor, solid–liquid, and liquid–vapor surfaces collapse into three corresponding curved lines meeting at the ...

  8. Heisler chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisler_Chart

    These first Heisler–Gröber charts were based upon the first term of the exact Fourier series solution for an infinite plane wall: (,) = = [⁡ + ⁡ ⁡], [1]where T i is the initial uniform temperature of the slab, T ∞ is the constant environmental temperature imposed at the boundary, x is the location in the plane wall, λ is the root of λ * tan λ = Bi, and α is thermal diffusivity.

  9. U.S. Standard Atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Standard_Atmosphere

    Comparison of the 1962 US Standard Atmosphere graph of geometric altitude against air density, pressure, the speed of sound and temperature with approximate altitudes of various objects. [ 1 ] The U.S. Standard Atmosphere is a static atmospheric model of how the pressure , temperature , density , and viscosity of the Earth's atmosphere change ...
