  2. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    Since API gravity is an inverse measure of a liquid's density relative to that of water, it can be calculated by first dividing the liquid's density by the density of water at a base temperature (usually 60 °F) to compute Specific Gravity (SG), then converting the Specific Gravity to Degrees API as follows: = =

  3. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater

    Boiler feedwater is the water which is supplied to a boiler. The feed water is put into the steam drum from a feed pump. In the steam drum the feed water is then turned into steam from the heat. After the steam is used, it is then dumped to the main condenser. From the condenser, it is then pumped to the deaerated feed tank.

  4. Standard temperature and pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_temperature_and...

    In aeronautics and fluid dynamics the "International Standard Atmosphere" (ISA) is a specification of pressure, temperature, density, and speed of sound at each altitude. At standard mean sea level it specifies a temperature of 15 °C (59 °F), pressure of 101,325 pascals (14.6959 psi) (1 atm ), and a density of 1.2250 kilograms per cubic meter ...

  5. Centimetre or millimetre of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimetre_or_millimetre...

    A centimetre of water [1] is a unit of pressure. It may be defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 cm in height at 4 °C (temperature of maximum density) at the standard acceleration of gravity, so that 1 cmH 2 O (4°C) = 999.9720 kg/m 3 × 9.80665 m/s 2 × 1 cm = 98.063754138 Pa ≈ 98.0638 Pa, but conventionally a nominal maximum water density of 1000 kg/m 3 is used, giving ...

  6. Ultrapure water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrapure_water

    Ultrapure water (UPW), high-purity water or highly purified water (HPW) is water that has been purified to uncommonly stringent specifications. Ultrapure water is a term commonly used in manufacturing to emphasize the fact that the water is treated to the highest levels of purity for all contaminant types, including organic and inorganic compounds, dissolved and particulate matter, and ...

  7. Self-ionization of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-ionization_of_water

    The dependence of the water ionization on temperature and pressure has been investigated thoroughly. [5] The value of p K w decreases as temperature increases from the melting point of ice to a minimum at c. 250 °C, after which it increases up to the critical point of water c. 374 °C.

  8. Debye length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye_length

    For deionized water at room temperature, at pH=7, λ B ≈ 1μm. At room temperature (20 °C or 70 °F), one can consider in water the relation: [15] = where κ −1 is expressed in nanometres (nm) I is the ionic strength expressed in molar (M or mol/L)

  9. Diesel exhaust fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust_fluid

    When it is injected into the hot exhaust gas stream, the water evaporates and the urea thermally decomposes [13] to form ammonia (NH 3) and isocyanic acid (HNCO): (NH 2) 2 CO → NH 3 + HNCO. The isocyanic acid reacts with the water vapor and hydrolyses to carbon dioxide and ammonia: HNCO + H 2 O → CO 2 + NH 3. Overall, thus far: (NH 2) 2 CO ...
