  2. Oxygen storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_storage

    Recently developed materials suitable for TSA applications are hexagonal LnMnO 3+d (Ln: Lanthanides and Y) materials. [8] Oxygen stoichiometric phases ( δ = 0), denoted as Hex0, crystallize in the hexagonal P 6 3 cm symmetry which can be described as a layered structure in which layers of R + 3 cations in eight-fold coordination are separated ...

  3. Moody chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody_chart

    where is the density of the fluid, is the average velocity in the pipe, is the friction factor from the Moody chart, is the length of the pipe and is the pipe diameter. The chart plots Darcy–Weisbach friction factor f D {\displaystyle f_{D}} against Reynolds number Re for a variety of relative roughnesses, the ratio of the mean height of ...

  4. Rayleigh number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_number

    The Rayleigh number describes the behaviour of fluids (such as water or air) when the mass density of the fluid is non-uniform. The mass density differences are usually caused by temperature differences. Typically a fluid expands and becomes less dense as it is heated. Gravity causes denser parts of the fluid to sink, which is called convection.

  5. Gas blending for scuba diving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_blending_for_scuba_diving

    [5] [6] When cylinders are filled with gas quickly, typically in 10 to 60 minutes at a dive filling station, the gas inside gets hot, which increases the pressure of the gas relative to its mass. When the cylinder cools, the gas pressure falls resulting in a reduced volume of breathable gas available to the diver.

  6. Tax horsepower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_horsepower

    The tax horsepower rating was computed not from actual engine power but by a mathematical formula based on cylinder dimensions. At the beginning of the twentieth century, tax power was reasonably close to real power; as the internal combustion engine developed, real power became larger than nominal taxable power by a factor of ten or more.

  7. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

    A gas cylinder quad, also known as a gas cylinder bundle, is a group of high pressure cylinders mounted on a transport and storage frame. There are commonly 16 cylinders, each of about 50 litres capacity mounted upright in four rows of four, on a square base with a square plan frame with lifting points on top and may have fork-lift slots in the ...

  8. Strouhal number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strouhal_number

    The dual-medium motion demonstrates how alcids had two different flight patterns based on the stroke velocities as it moved through each fluid. [13] However, as the bird travels through a different medium, it has to face the influence of the fluid’s density and viscosity.

  9. Reynolds number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynolds_number

    The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid that is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.
