  2. Center of pressure (fluid mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_pressure_(fluid...

    The total force vector acting at the center of pressure is the surface integral of the pressure vector field across the surface of the body. The resultant force and center of pressure location produce an equivalent force and moment on the body as the original pressure field. Pressure fields occur in both static and dynamic fluid mechanics ...

  3. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...

  4. Van der Waals equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waals_equation

    One way to write the van der Waals equation is: [8] [9] [10] = where is pressure, is temperature, and = / is molar volume. In addition is the Avogadro constant, is the volume, and is the number of molecules (the ratio / is a physical quantity with base unit mole (symbol mol) in the SI).

  5. Pressure prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_prism

    HCOP = ∫px x dx / ∫px dx, where px is the pressure at x distance from the bottom With this formula we see the height of the COP for a plane surface is H/3 from the bottom, as shown in Figure 2 (left). With two fluids of differing density in a volume, the slope of the pressure prism will not be constant over the depth. See Figure 3 (right).

  6. Hagen–Poiseuille equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagen–Poiseuille_equation

    Δp is the pressure difference between the two ends, L is the length of pipe, μ is the dynamic viscosity, Q is the volumetric flow rate, R is the pipe radius, A is the cross-sectional area of pipe. The equation does not hold close to the pipe entrance. [8]: 3 The equation fails in the limit of low viscosity, wide and/or short pipe.

  7. Thermal equation of state of solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_equation_of_state...

    At ambient pressure, P=0 GPA is known, so, the volume, pressure, and temperature are all given. Then, authors [9] predict the pressure value from the given (V, T) from pressure-dependent thermal expansion equation of state. The predicted pressures match with the known experimental value of 0 GPa, see in Figure 2.

  8. Gas laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_laws

    where P is the pressure, V is the volume, N is the number of gas molecules, k B is the Boltzmann constant (1.381×10 −23 J·K −1 in SI units) and T is the absolute temperature. These equations are exact only for an ideal gas , which neglects various intermolecular effects (see real gas ).

  9. Pressure coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_coefficient

    In fluid dynamics, the pressure coefficient is a dimensionless number which describes the relative pressures throughout a flow field. The pressure coefficient is used in aerodynamics and hydrodynamics. Every point in a fluid flow field has its own unique pressure coefficient, C p.
