  2. Permeation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeation

    Tires: Air pressure in tires should decrease as slowly as possible. A good tire is one that allows the least amount of gas to escape. Permeation will occur over time with the tires, so it is best to know the permeability of the material that will make up the tire with the desired gas to make the most efficient tires.

  3. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    In SI units, permeability is measured in henries per meter (H/m), or equivalently in newtons per ampere squared (N/A 2). The permeability constant μ 0, also known as the magnetic constant or the permeability of free space, is the proportionality between magnetic induction and magnetizing force when forming a magnetic field in a classical vacuum.

  4. Nicolson–Ross–Weir method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolson–Ross–Weir_method

    The method uses scattering parameters of a material sample embedded in a waveguide, namely and , to calculate permittivity and permeability data. and correspond to the cumulative reflection and transmission coefficient of the sample that are referenced to the each sample end, respectively: these parameters account for the multiple internal reflections inside the sample, which is considered to ...

  5. Permeability (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(Materials...

    A practical unit for permeability is the darcy (d), or more commonly the millidarcy (md) (1 d ≈ 10 −12 m 2). The name honors the French Engineer Henry Darcy who first described the flow of water through sand filters for potable water supply. Permeability values for most materials commonly range typically from a fraction to several thousand ...

  6. Relative permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permittivity

    The relative permittivity of air changes with temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. [25] Sensors can be constructed to detect changes in capacitance caused by changes in the relative permittivity. Most of this change is due to effects of temperature and humidity as the barometric pressure is fairly stable.

  7. Fresnel equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_equations

    As before, we are assuming the magnetic permeability, µ of both media to be equal to the permeability of free space µ 0 as is essentially true of all dielectrics at optical frequencies. Amplitude coefficients: air to glass Amplitude coefficients: glass to air. In the following equations and graphs, we adopt the following conventions.

  8. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    By definition, a perfect vacuum has a relative permittivity of exactly 1 whereas at standard temperature and pressure, air has a relative permittivity of ε r air ≡ κ air ≈ 1.0006 . Relative permittivity is directly related to electric susceptibility (χ) by = otherwise written as

  9. Permeance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeance

    In electromagnetism, permeance is the inverse of reluctance.In a magnetic circuit, permeance is a measure of the quantity of magnetic flux for a number of current-turns. A magnetic circuit almost acts as though the flux is conducted, therefore permeance is larger for large cross-sections of a material and smaller for smaller cross section lengths.
