  2. Vertical pressure variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_pressure_variation

    where h 1 - h 0 is the vertical distance between the two points. [ 2 ] Where different fluids are layered on top of one another, the total pressure difference would be obtained by adding the two pressure differences; the first being from point 1 to the boundary, the second being from the boundary to point 2; which would just involve ...

  3. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    In other words, for an object floating on a liquid surface (like a boat) or floating submerged in a fluid (like a submarine in water or dirigible in air) the weight of the displaced liquid equals the weight of the object. Thus, only in the special case of floating does the buoyant force acting on an object equal the objects weight.

  4. Displacement (fluid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(fluid)

    The increase in weight is equal to the amount of liquid displaced by the object, which is the same as the volume of the suspended object times the density of the liquid. [ 1 ] The concept of Archimedes' principle is that an object immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. [ 2 ]

  5. Friedmann equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedmann_equations

    The first Friedmann equation is often seen in terms of the present values of the density parameters, that is [7] =, +, +, +,. Here Ω 0,R is the radiation density today (when a = 1 ), Ω 0,M is the matter ( dark plus baryonic ) density today, Ω 0, k = 1 − Ω 0 is the "spatial curvature density" today, and Ω 0,Λ is the cosmological constant ...

  6. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    In the time interval Δt fluid elements initially at the inflow cross-section A 1 move over a distance s 1 = v 1 Δt, while at the outflow cross-section the fluid moves away from cross-section A 2 over a distance s 2 = v 2 Δt. The displaced fluid volumes at the inflow and outflow are respectively A 1 s 1 and A 2 s 2.

  7. gc (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gc_(engineering)

    In unit systems where force is a derived unit, like in SI units, g c is equal to 1. In unit systems where force is a primary unit, like in imperial and US customary measurement systems , g c may or may not equal 1 depending on the units used, and value other than 1 may be required to obtain correct results. [ 2 ]

  8. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle's_law

    Here P 1 and V 1 represent the original pressure and volume, respectively, and P 2 and V 2 represent the second pressure and volume. Boyle's law, Charles's law, and Gay-Lussac's law form the combined gas law. The three gas laws in combination with Avogadro's law can be generalized by the ideal gas law.

  9. Archimedes number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes_number

    The Archimedes number is applied often in the engineering of packed beds, which are very common in the chemical processing industry. [3] A packed bed reactor, which is similar to the ideal plug flow reactor model, involves packing a tubular reactor with a solid catalyst, then passing incompressible or compressible fluids through the solid bed.
