  2. Inch of mercury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_mercury

    Inch of mercury (inHg and ″Hg) is a non-SI unit of measurement for pressure. It is used for barometric pressure in weather reports , refrigeration and aviation in the United States . It is the pressure exerted by a column of mercury 1 inch (25.4 mm) in height at the standard acceleration of gravity .

  3. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    The heat equation is also widely used in image analysis (Perona & Malik 1990) and in machine learning as the driving theory behind scale-space or graph Laplacian methods. The heat equation can be efficiently solved numerically using the implicit Crank–Nicolson method of (Crank & Nicolson 1947).

  4. Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure

    Atmospheric pressure, also known as air pressure or barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars, [1] 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi. [2]

  5. Atmospheric model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_model

    The first model used for operational forecasts, the single-layer barotropic model, used a single pressure coordinate at the 500-millibar (15 inHg) level, [6] and thus was essentially two-dimensional. High-resolution models—also called mesoscale models —such as the Weather Research and Forecasting model tend to use normalized pressure ...

  6. Barometric formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barometric_formula

    The reference value for P b for b = 0 is the defined sea level value, P 0 = 101 325 Pa or 29.92126 inHg. Values of P b of b = 1 through b = 6 are obtained from the application of the appropriate member of the pair equations 1 and 2 for the case when h = h b+1. [2]

  7. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    This equation uses the overall heat transfer coefficient of an unfouled heat exchanger and the fouling resistance to calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient of a fouled heat exchanger. The equation takes into account that the perimeter of the heat exchanger is different on the hot and cold sides.

  8. Heat transfer physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_physics

    The macroscopic energy equation for infinitesimal volume used in heat transfer analysis is [6] = +, ˙, where q is heat flux vector, −ρc p (∂T/∂t) is temporal change of internal energy (ρ is density, c p is specific heat capacity at constant pressure, T is temperature and t is time), and ˙ is the energy conversion to and from thermal ...

  9. Heat kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_kernel

    In the mathematical study of heat conduction and diffusion, a heat kernel is the fundamental solution to the heat equation on a specified domain with appropriate boundary conditions. It is also one of the main tools in the study of the spectrum of the Laplace operator , and is thus of some auxiliary importance throughout mathematical physics .
