  2. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    The particle count is obtained by counting pulses. This pulse is proportional to the volume of the sensed particle. Advantages: very small sample aliquots can be examined. Disadvantages: sample must be dispersed in a liquid medium... some particles may (partially or fully) dissolve in the medium altering the size distribution. The results are ...

  3. Distribution function (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_function...

    Related distribution functions may allow bulk fluid flow, in which case the velocity origin is shifted, so that the exponent's numerator is (() + + ()), where (,,) is the bulk velocity of the fluid. Distribution functions may also feature non-isotropic temperatures, in which each term in the exponent is divided by a different temperature.

  4. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    In materials science, bulk density, also called apparent density, is a material property defined as the mass of the many particles of the material divided by the bulk volume. Bulk volume is defined as the total volume the particles occupy, including particle's own volume, inter-particle void volume, and the particles' internal pore volume.

  5. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

    q is any quark, g is a gluon, X is any charged particle, γ is a photon, f is any fermion, m is any particle with mass (with the possible exception of the neutrinos), m B is any boson with mass. In diagrams with multiple particle labels separated by / one particle label is chosen. In diagrams with particle labels separated by | the labels must ...

  6. Sieve analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_analysis

    A sieve analysis (or gradation test) is a practice or procedure used in geology, civil engineering, [1] and chemical engineering [2] to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction ...

  7. Particle mass density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_mass_density

    The particle mass density or particle density of a material (such as particulate solid or powder) is the mass density of the particles that make up the powder. Particle density is in contrast to the bulk density, which measures the average density of a large volume of the powder in a specific medium (usually air).

  8. Population balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_balance_equation

    Consider the average number of particles with particle properties denoted by a particle state vector (x,r) (where x corresponds to particle properties like size, density, etc. also known as internal coordinates and, r corresponds to spatial position or external coordinates) dispersed in a continuous phase defined by a phase vector Y(r,t) (which again is a function of all such vectors which ...

  9. Boltzmann equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_equation

    The equation arises not by analyzing the individual positions and momenta of each particle in the fluid but rather by considering a probability distribution for the position and momentum of a typical particle—that is, the probability that the particle occupies a given very small region of space (mathematically the volume element) centered at ...
