  2. Oxygen compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_compatibility

    Oxygen cleaning is a necessary, but not always a sufficient condition for high partial pressure or high concentration oxygen service. The materials used must also be oxygen compatible at all expected service conditions. Aluminium and titanium components are specifically not suitable for oxygen service. [2]

  3. Limiting oxygen concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limiting_oxygen_concentration

    The limiting oxygen concentration (LOC), [1] also known as the minimum oxygen concentration (MOC), [2] is defined as the limiting concentration of oxygen below which combustion is not possible, independent of the concentration of fuel. It is expressed in units of volume percent of oxygen. The LOC varies with pressure and temperature.

  4. Oxygen equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_Equivalent

    Oxygen equivalent compares the relative amount of oxygen available for respiration at a variable pressure to that available at SATP.As external respiration depends on the exchange of gases due to partial pressures across a semipermeable membrane and normally occurs at SATP, an oxygen equivalent may aid in recognizing and managing variable oxygen availability during procedures such as ...

  5. Pulmonary gas pressures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_gas_pressures

    The alveolar oxygen partial pressure is lower than the atmospheric O 2 partial pressure for two reasons.. Firstly, as the air enters the lungs, it is humidified by the upper airway and thus the partial pressure of water vapour (47 mmHg) reduces the oxygen partial pressure to about 150 mmHg.

  6. Limiting oxygen index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limiting_oxygen_index

    The limiting oxygen index (LOI) is the minimum concentration of oxygen, expressed as a percentage, that will support combustion of a polymer. It is measured by passing a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen over a burning specimen, and reducing the oxygen level until a critical level is reached.

    Values are given in terms of temperature necessary to reach the specified pressure. Valid results within the quoted ranges from most equations are included in the table for comparison. A conversion factor is included into the original first coefficients of the equations to provide the pressure in pascals (CR2: 5.006, SMI: -0.875).

    Ozempic and other GLP-1 agonist medications might interfere with birth control and give certain patients a fertility boost, say doctors.

  9. Pressure coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_coefficient

    The coefficient of lift for a two-dimensional airfoil section with strictly horizontal surfaces can be calculated from the coefficient of pressure distribution by integration, or calculating the area between the lines on the distribution. This expression is not suitable for direct numeric integration using the panel method of lift approximation ...
