  2. Capillary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_number

    Multiphase flows forms when two or more partially or immiscible fluids are brought in contact. [7] The capillary number in multiphase flow has the same definition as the single flow formulation, the ratio of viscous to surface forces but has the added(?) effect of the ratio of fluid viscosities: [clarification needed]

  3. Bubble point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_point

    In thermodynamics, the bubble point is the temperature (at a given pressure) where the first bubble of vapor is formed when heating a liquid consisting of two or more components. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Given that vapor will probably have a different composition than the liquid, the bubble point (along with the dew point ) at different compositions are ...

  4. Shewhart individuals control chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shewhart_individuals...

    In statistical quality control, the individual/moving-range chart is a type of control chart used to monitor variables data from a business or industrial process for which it is impractical to use rational subgroups. [1] The chart is necessary in the following situations: [2]: 231

  5. Gas/oil ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas/oil_ratio

    Definition of formation volume factor Bo and gas/oil ratio Rs for oil. When oil is produced to surface temperature and pressure it is usual for some natural gas to come out of solution. The gas/oil ratio (GOR) is the ratio of the volume of gas ("scf") that comes out of solution to the volume of oil — at standard conditions.

  6. Specific modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_modulus

    It is also known as the stiffness to weight ratio or specific stiffness. High specific modulus materials find wide application in aerospace applications where minimum structural weight is required. The dimensional analysis yields units of distance squared per time squared.

  7. Litre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litre

    In 1901, at the 3rd CGPM conference, the litre was redefined as the space occupied by 1 kg of pure water at the temperature of its maximum density (3.98 °C) under a pressure of 1 atm. This made the litre equal to about 1.000 028 dm 3 (earlier reference works usually put it at 1.000 027 dm 3 ).

  8. M squared - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M_squared

    M 2 is useful because it reflects how well a collimated laser beam can be focused to a small spot, or how well a divergent laser source can be collimated. It is a better guide to beam quality than Gaussian appearance because there are many cases in which a beam can look Gaussian, yet have an M 2 value far from unity. [1]

  9. Mars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars

    Atmospheric pressure on the surface today ranges from a low of 30 Pa (0.0044 psi) on Olympus Mons to over 1,155 Pa (0.1675 psi) in Hellas Planitia, with a mean pressure at the surface level of 600 Pa (0.087 psi). [116] The highest atmospheric density on Mars is equal to that found 35 kilometres (22 mi) [117] above Earth's surface. The resulting ...
