  2. Slip ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ratio

    Slip ratio is a means of calculating and expressing the slipping behavior of the wheel of an automobile.It is of fundamental importance in the field of vehicle dynamics, as it allows to understand the relationship between the deformation of the tire and the longitudinal forces (i.e. the forces responsible for forward acceleration and braking) acting upon it.

  3. Slip (vehicle dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(vehicle_dynamics)

    In (automotive) vehicle dynamics, slip is the relative motion between a tire and the road surface it is moving on. This slip can be generated either by the tire's rotational speed being greater or less than the free-rolling speed (usually described as percent slip), or by the tire's plane of rotation being at an angle to its direction of motion (referred to as slip angle).

  4. Slip ratio (gas–liquid flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ratio_(gas–liquid_flow)

    There are a number of correlations for slip ratio. For homogeneous flow, S = 1 (i.e. there is no slip). The Chisholm correlation [2] [3] is: = The Chisholm correlation is based on application of the simple annular flow model and equates the frictional pressure drops in the liquid and the gas phase.

  5. Porosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porosity

    Porosity or void fraction is a measure of the void (i.e. "empty") spaces in a material, ... and to the ratio of the velocity of the two phases (called slip ratio). ...

  6. Sphere packing in a cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing_in_a_cylinder

    Thus, each line slip is related to two adjacent uniform structures, one at a higher and one at a lower diameter ratio /. [ 22 ] [ 1 ] [ 24 ] Winkelmann et al. were the first to experimentally realise such a structure using soap bubbles in a system of deformable spheres.

  7. Two-phase flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_flow

    Different modes of two-phase flows. In fluid mechanics, two-phase flow is a flow of gas and liquid — a particular example of multiphase flow.Two-phase flow can occur in various forms, such as flows transitioning from pure liquid to vapor as a result of external heating, separated flows, and dispersed two-phase flows where one phase is present in the form of particles, droplets, or bubbles in ...

  8. Slip angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_angle

    The ratios between the slip angles of the front and rear axles (a function of the slip angles of the front and rear tires respectively) will determine the vehicle's behavior in a given turn. If the ratio of front to rear slip angles is greater than 1:1, the vehicle will tend to understeer, while a ratio of less than 1:1 will produce oversteer. [2]

  9. Slip factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_factor

    Mathematically, the Slip factor denoted by 'σ' is defined as the ratio of the actual & ideal values of the whirl velocity components at the exit of the impeller. The ideal values can be calculated using an analytical approach while the actual values should be observed experimentally. = ′
