  2. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    In oceanography a common unit to measure volume transport (volume of water transported by a current for example) is a sverdrup (Sv) equivalent to 10 6 m 3 /s. Viscosity of the particular liquid a person is looking to meter is important, as not all technologies work well.

  3. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    In thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, the compressibility (also known as the coefficient of compressibility [1] or, if the temperature is held constant, the isothermal compressibility [2]) is a measure of the instantaneous relative volume change of a fluid or solid as a response to a pressure (or mean stress) change.

  4. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's rate-dependent resistance to a change in shape or to movement of its neighboring portions relative to one another. [1] For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of thickness; for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water. [2]

  5. Plethysmograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plethysmograph

    First, the change in volume of the chest is computed. The initial pressure of the box times its volume is considered equal to the known pressure after expansion times the unknown new volume. Once the new volume is found, the original volume minus the new volume is the change in volume in the box and also the change in volume in the chest.

  6. Reynolds number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynolds_number

    The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid that is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.

  9. Particle size analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_size_analysis

    Particle size analysis, particle size measurement, or simply particle sizing, is the collective name of the technical procedures, or laboratory techniques which determines the size range, and/or the average, or mean size of the particles in a powder or liquid sample.
