  2. Conversion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_(chemistry)

    Conversion and its related terms yield and selectivity are important terms in chemical reaction engineering.They are described as ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted (X — conversion, normally between zero and one), how much of a desired product was formed (Y — yield, normally also between zero and one) and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product(s) (S ...

    The other and most popular formula is the Dearden and O'Neill formula, which was adopted by IIW in 1967. [4] This formula has been found suitable for predicting hardenability in a large range of commonly used plain carbon and carbon-manganese steels, but not to microalloyed high-strength low-alloy steels or low-alloy Cr-Mo steels.

  4. Rate equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_equation

    In chemistry, the rate equation (also known as the rate law or empirical differential rate equation) is an empirical differential mathematical expression for the reaction rate of a given reaction in terms of concentrations of chemical species and constant parameters (normally rate coefficients and partial orders of reaction) only. [1]

  5. Yield (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(chemistry)

    Relation between chemical reaction conversion selectivity and yield. In chemical reaction engineering, "yield", "conversion" and "selectivity" are terms used to describe ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted—conversion, how much of a desired product was formed—yield, and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product—selectivity, represented as X, S, and Y.

  6. Rolled homogeneous armour - Wikipedia

    The softest class I rates as 260-310. The toughest Class 4 rates as 420-470. [3] (K is the revision number of the standard.) MIL-DTL-46177 is an older, now-replaced standard for a high hardness steel RHA. [4] It specifies a harder steel that is nearly identical to AR500 in terms of tensile and yield strength. [5]

  7. Chemical kinetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_kinetics

    Chemical kinetics, also known as reaction kinetics, is the branch of physical chemistry that is concerned with understanding the rates of chemical reactions. It is different from chemical thermodynamics , which deals with the direction in which a reaction occurs but in itself tells nothing about its rate.

  8. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    The parameters (,,,) obtained from a test result can be used with these formulas to calculate the equivalent true stress ´ at failure. Specimen shape effect The graph of specimen shape effect shows how the ratio of true stress to engineering stress (σ´/σ e ) varies with the aspect ratio of the test specimen ( d o / l o {\textstyle d_{o}/l ...

  9. Work hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_hardening

    The decrease in length is called the elastic recovery, and the result is a work-hardened steel bar. The fraction of length recovered (length recovered/original length) is equal to the yield-stress divided by the modulus of elasticity. (Here we discuss true stress in order to account for the drastic decrease in diameter in this tensile test ...
