  2. Maximum sustainable yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_sustainable_yield

    The maximum sustainable yield is the largest yield that can be taken from a population at equilibrium. In figure 3, if H {\displaystyle H} is higher than H 2 {\displaystyle H_{2}} , the harvesting would exceed the population's capacity to replace itself at any population size ( H 3 {\displaystyle H_{3}} in figure 3).

  3. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    The temperature approaches a linear function because that is the stable solution of the equation: wherever temperature has a nonzero second spatial derivative, the time derivative is nonzero as well. The heat equation implies that peaks ( local maxima ) of u {\displaystyle u} will be gradually eroded down, while depressions ( local minima ...

  4. Thermochemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_equation

    In thermochemistry, a thermochemical equation is a balanced chemical equation that represents the energy changes from a system to its surroundings. One such equation involves the enthalpy change, which is denoted with Δ H {\displaystyle \Delta H} In variable form, a thermochemical equation would appear similar to the following:

  5. Thermodynamic equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_equations

    Only one equation of state will not be sufficient to reconstitute the fundamental equation. All equations of state will be needed to fully characterize the thermodynamic system. Note that what is commonly called "the equation of state" is just the "mechanical" equation of state involving the Helmholtz potential and the volume:

  6. Thermal equation of state of solids - Wikipedia

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

    In physics, the thermal equation of state is a mathematical expression of pressure P, temperature T, and, volume V.The thermal equation of state for ideal gases is the ideal gas law, expressed as PV=nRT (where R is the gas constant and n the amount of substance), while the thermal equation of state for solids is expressed as:

  7. Reduced properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_properties

    The reduced temperature of a fluid is its actual temperature, divided by its critical temperature: [1] = where the actual temperature and critical temperature are expressed in absolute temperature scales (either Kelvin or Rankine). Both the reduced temperature and the reduced pressure are often used in thermodynamical formulas like the Peng ...

  8. Arrhenius equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhenius_equation

    In physical chemistry, the Arrhenius equation is a formula for the temperature dependence of reaction rates.The equation was proposed by Svante Arrhenius in 1889, based on the work of Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff who had noted in 1884 that the van 't Hoff equation for the temperature dependence of equilibrium constants suggests such a formula for the rates of both forward and ...

  9. Heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity

    Since an increment of temperature of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin, that is the same unit as J/°C. The heat capacity of an object is an amount of energy divided by a temperature change, which has the dimension L 2 ⋅M⋅T −2 ⋅Θ −1.
