  2. Equilibrium constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_constant

    Indeed, for ideal-gas reactions K p is independent of pressure. [17] Pressure dependence of the water ionization constant at 25 °C. In general, ionization in aqueous solutions tends to increase with increasing pressure. In a condensed phase, the pressure dependence of the equilibrium constant is associated with the reaction volume. [18] For ...

  3. Kelvin equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_equation

    The vapour pressure above the curved interface is then higher than that for the planar interface. This picture provides a simple conceptual basis for the Kelvin equation. The change in vapor pressure can be attributed to changes in the Laplace pressure. When the Laplace pressure rises in a droplet, the droplet tends to evaporate more easily.

  4. Henry's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry's_law

    However, a "salting in" effect has also been observed, for example for the effective Henry's law constant of glyoxal. The effect can be described with the Sechenov equation, named after the Russian physiologist Ivan Sechenov (sometimes the German transliteration "Setschenow" of the Cyrillic name Се́ченов is used). There are many ...

  5. Pressure coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_coefficient

    This pressure distribution is simply the pressure at all points around an airfoil. Typically, graphs of these distributions are drawn so that negative numbers are higher on the graph, as the C p {\displaystyle C_{p}} for the upper surface of the airfoil will usually be farther below zero and will hence be the top line on the graph.

  6. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, density, speed and height. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a parcel of fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in either the pressure or the height above a datum. [1]:

  7. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    As temperature and pressure increase along the coexistence curve, the gas becomes more like a liquid and the liquid becomes more like a gas. At the critical point, the two are the same. So for temperatures above the critical temperature (126.2 K), there is no phase transition; as pressure increases the gas gradually transforms into something ...

    The proportion of cases caused by KP.2 and now KP.3 is increasing, while the proportion caused by other variants is decreasing, which suggests the FLiRT variants have features that give it an ...

  9. Adverse pressure gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adverse_pressure_gradient

    Increasing the fluid pressure is akin to increasing the potential energy of the fluid, leading to a reduced kinetic energy and a deceleration of the fluid. Since the fluid in the inner part of the boundary layer is slower, it is more greatly affected by the increasing pressure gradient.
