  2. Particle size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_size

    Particle size is a notion introduced for comparing dimensions of solid particles (), liquid particles (), or gaseous particles ().The notion of particle size applies to particles in colloids, in ecology, in granular material (whether airborne or not), and to particles that form a granular material (see also grain size).

  3. 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 ...

  4. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    The Weibull distribution or Rosin–Rammler distribution is a useful distribution for representing particle size distributions generated by grinding, milling and crushing operations. The log-hyperbolic distribution was proposed by Bagnold and Barndorff-Nielsen [9] to model the particle-size distribution of naturally occurring sediments. This ...

  5. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    is the mean size of the ordered (crystalline) domains, which may be smaller or equal to the grain size, which may be smaller or equal to the particle size; is a dimensionless shape factor, with a value close to unity. The shape factor has a typical value of about 0.9, but varies with the actual shape of the crystallite;

  6. Grain size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_size

    Grain size (or particle size) is the diameter of individual grains of sediment, or the lithified particles in clastic rocks. The term may also be applied to other granular materials . This is different from the crystallite size, which refers to the size of a single crystal inside a particle or grain.

  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.

  8. Particle size analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_size_analysis

    Particle size analysis, particle size measurement, or simply particle sizing, is the collective name of the technical procedures, or laboratory techniques which determines the size range, and/or the average, or mean size of the particles in a powder or liquid sample.

  9. 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 ...
