  2. Van der Waals equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waals_equation

    This "law" is just a special case of dimensional analysis in which an equation containing 6 dimensional quantities, ⁠,,,,, ⁠, and 3 independent dimensions, [p], [v], [T] (independent means that "none of the dimensions of these quantities can be represented as a product of powers of the dimensions of the remaining quantities", [45] and ...

  3. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    Under these conditions, p 1 V 1 γ = p 2 V 2 γ, where γ is defined as the heat capacity ratio, which is constant for a calorifically perfect gas. The value used for γ is typically 1.4 for diatomic gases like nitrogen (N 2) and oxygen (O 2), (and air, which is 99% diatomic).

  4. 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). However, the ideal gas law is a good approximation for ...

  5. Fundamental thermodynamic relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_thermodynamic...

    Here, U is internal energy, T is absolute temperature, S is entropy, P is pressure, and V is volume. This is only one expression of the fundamental thermodynamic relation. It may be expressed in other ways, using different variables (e.g. using thermodynamic potentials). For example, the fundamental relation may be expressed in terms of the ...

  6. Present value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Present_value

    In economics and finance, present value (PV), also known as present discounted value(PDV), is the value of an expected income stream determined as of the date of valuation.

  7. Redlich–Kwong equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redlich–Kwong_equation_of...

    p is the gas pressure; R is the gas constant, T is temperature, V m is the molar volume (V/n), a is a constant that corrects for attractive potential of molecules, and; b is a constant that corrects for volume. The constants are different depending on which gas is being analyzed. The constants can be calculated from the critical point data of ...

  8. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    Dynamic pressure is the kinetic energy per unit volume of a fluid. Dynamic pressure is one of the terms of Bernoulli's equation, which can be derived from the conservation of energy for a fluid in motion.

  9. Thermodynamic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_potential

    where T = temperature, S = entropy, p = pressure, V = volume. N i is the number of particles of type i in the system and μ i is the chemical potential for an i-type particle.The set of all N i are also included as natural variables but may be ignored when no chemical reactions are occurring which cause them to change.
