  2. Gurney equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurney_equations

    Uniformly initiated spherical charge imploding an inner mass - spherical shell explosive charge of mass C, outer tamper layer of mass N, and inner imploding spherical flyer shell of mass M A special case is a hollow sphere of explosives, initiated evenly around its surface, with an outer tamper and inner hollow shell which is then accelerated ...

  3. Spherical shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_shell

    An approximation for the volume of a thin spherical shell is the surface area of the inner sphere multiplied by the thickness t of the shell: [2] V ≈ 4 π r 2 t , {\displaystyle V\approx 4\pi r^{2}t,}

  4. De Brouckere mean diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Brouckere_mean_diameter

    The De Brouckere mean diameter is the mean of a particle size distribution weighted by the volume (also called volume-weighted mean diameter, volume moment mean diameter. [1] or volume-weighted mean size [2]). It is the mean diameter, which is directly obtained in particle size measurements, where the measured signal is proportional to the ...

  5. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    D 50: Mass-median-diameter (MMD). The log-normal distribution mass median diameter. The MMD is considered to be the average particle diameter by mass. σ g: Geometric standard deviation. This value is determined mathematically by the equation: σ g = D 84.13 /D 50 = D 50 /D 15.87. The value of σ g determines the slope of the least-squares ...

  6. Spherical cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cap

    An example of a spherical cap in blue (and another in red) In geometry, a spherical cap or spherical dome is a portion of a sphere or of a ball cut off by a plane.It is also a spherical segment of one base, i.e., bounded by a single plane.

  7. Sauter mean diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauter_mean_diameter

    In fluid dynamics, Sauter mean diameter (SMD) is an average measure of particle size. It was originally developed by German scientist Josef Sauter in the late 1920s. [1] [2] It is defined as the diameter of a sphere that has the same volume/surface area ratio as a particle of interest. Several methods have been devised to obtain a good estimate ...

  8. Kinetic diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_diameter

    The kinetic diameter is not the same as atomic diameter defined in terms of the size of the atom's electron shell, which is generally a lot smaller, depending on the exact definition used. Rather, it is the size of the sphere of influence that can lead to a scattering event. [1] Kinetic diameter is related to the mean free path of molecules in ...

  9. Equivalent spherical diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_spherical_diameter

    Strictly speaking, the laser diffraction equivalent diameter is the diameter of a sphere yielding, on the same detector geometry, the same diffraction pattern as the particle. In the size regimen where the Fraunhofer approximation is valid, this diameter corresponds to the projected area diameter of the particle in random orientation. For ...
