  2. Orbit phasing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_phasing

    To find some of the phasing orbital parameters, first one must find the required period time of the phasing orbit using the following equation. = where T 1 is defined as period of original orbit; T 2 is defined as period of phasing orbit; t is defined as time elapsed to cover phase angle in original orbit

  3. Pourbaix diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pourbaix_diagram

    Pourbaix diagram of iron. [1] The Y axis corresponds to voltage potential. In electrochemistry, and more generally in solution chemistry, a Pourbaix diagram, also known as a potential/pH diagram, E H –pH diagram or a pE/pH diagram, is a plot of possible thermodynamically stable phases (i.e., at chemical equilibrium) of an aqueous electrochemical system.

  4. Thermodynamic databases for pure substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_databases...

    Most computerized databases will create a table of thermodynamic values using the values from the datafile. For MgCl 2 (c,l,g) at 1 atm pressure: Thermodynamic properties table for MgCl 2 (c,l,g), from the FREED datafile. Some values have truncated significant figures for display purposes. The table format is a common way to display ...

  5. Contact angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_angle

    Cloth, treated to be hydrophobic, shows a high contact angle. The theoretical description of contact angle arises from the consideration of a thermodynamic equilibrium between the three phases: the liquid phase (L), the solid phase (S), and the gas or vapor phase (G) (which could be a mixture of ambient atmosphere and an equilibrium concentration of the liquid vapor).

  6. Phase angle (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_angle_(astronomy)

    The brightness of an object is a function of the phase angle, which is generally smooth, except for the so-called opposition spike near 0°, which does not affect gas giants or bodies with pronounced atmospheres, and when the object becomes fainter as the angle approaches 180°. This relationship is referred to as the phase curve.

  7. Phase angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_angle

    Phase angle may refer to: Phase (waves), the angular displacement of a sinusoid from a reference point or time; Phasor angle, angular component of the complex number representation of a sinusoid; Analytic representation phase, instantaneous phase of an analytic signal representation; Phase angle (astronomy), the angle between the incident light ...

  8. Phase curve (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_curve_(astronomy)

    In astronomy, a phase curve describes the brightness of a reflecting body as a function of its phase angle (the arc subtended by the observer and the Sun as measured at the body). The brightness usually refers the object's absolute magnitude , which, in turn, is its apparent magnitude at a distance of one astronomical unit from the Earth and Sun.

  9. CALPHAD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CALPHAD

    [4] [5] [6] The CALPHAD approach is based on the fact that a phase diagram is a manifestation of the equilibrium thermodynamic properties of the system, which are the sum of the properties of the individual phases. [7] It is thus possible to calculate a phase diagram by first assessing the thermodynamic properties of all the phases in a system.
