  2. Surface tension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_tension

    Nayar et al. correlated the data with the following equation = (+ +) where γ sw is the surface tension of seawater in mN/m, γ w is the surface tension of water in mN/m, S is the reference salinity [41] in g/kg, and t is temperature in degrees Celsius. The average absolute percentage deviation between measurements and the correlation was 0.19% ...

  3. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Surface tension prevents the clip from submerging and the water from overflowing the glass edges. Temperature dependence of the surface tension of pure water. Water has an unusually high surface tension of 71.99 mN/m at 25 °C [64] which is caused by the strength of the hydrogen bonding between water molecules. [65] This allows insects to walk ...

  4. Young–Laplace equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young–Laplace_equation

    In physics, the Young–Laplace equation (/ l ə ˈ p l ɑː s /) is an algebraic equation that describes the capillary pressure difference sustained across the interface between two static fluids, such as water and air, due to the phenomenon of surface tension or wall tension, although use of the latter is only applicable if assuming that the wall is very thin.

  5. Water (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_(data_page)

    Data in the table above is given for water–steam equilibria at various temperatures over the entire temperature range at which liquid water can exist. Pressure of the equilibrium is given in the second column in kPa. The third column is the heat content of each gram of the liquid phase relative to water at 0 °C.

  6. Capillary length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_length

    The capillary length will vary for different liquids and different conditions. Here is a picture of a water droplet on a lotus leaf. If the temperature is 20 o then = 2.71mm . The capillary length or capillary constant is a length scaling factor that relates gravity and surface tension.

  7. Eötvös rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eötvös_rule

    The surface tension is a linear function of the temperature. This assumption is approximately fulfilled for most known liquids. When plotting the surface tension versus the temperature a fairly straight line can be seen which has a surface tension of zero at the critical temperature.

  8. Ethanol (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol_(data_page)

    Surface tension: 22.39 dyn/cm at 25 °C Thermal conductivity [2] 0.1660 W m −1 K −1 ... Density relative to 4 °C water Density at 20 °C relative to 20 °C water

  9. Szyszkowski equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szyszkowski_equation

    γ is surface tension of the mixture; γ 0 is surface tension of pure water; R is ideal gas constant 8.31 J/(mol*K) T is temperature in K; ω is cross-sectional area of the surfactant molecules at the surface; The surface tension of pure water is dependent on temperature. At room temperature (298 K), it is equal to 71.97 mN/m [4]
