  2. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    Once two of the three reduced properties are found, the compressibility chart can be used. In a compressibility chart, reduced pressure is on the x-axis and Z is on the y-axis. When given the reduced pressure and temperature, find the given pressure on the x-axis. From there, move up on the chart until the given reduced temperature is found.

  3. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    Compressibility is an important factor in aerodynamics. At low speeds, the compressibility of air is not significant in relation to aircraft design, but as the airflow nears and exceeds the speed of sound , a host of new aerodynamic effects become important in the design of aircraft.

  5. Real gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_gas

    Real gases are non-ideal gases whose molecules occupy space and have interactions; consequently, they do not adhere to the ideal gas law.To understand the behaviour of real gases, the following must be taken into account:

  6. Theorem of corresponding states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theorem_of_corresponding...

    According to van der Waals, the theorem of corresponding states (or principle/law of corresponding states) indicates that all fluids, when compared at the same reduced temperature and reduced pressure, have approximately the same compressibility factor and all deviate from ideal gas behavior to about the same degree. [1] [2]

  7. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    For example, terrestrial air is primarily made up of diatomic gases (around 78% nitrogen, N 2, and 21% oxygen, O 2), and at standard conditions it can be considered to be an ideal gas. The above value of 1.4 is highly consistent with the measured adiabatic indices for dry air within a temperature range of 0–200 °C, exhibiting a deviation of ...

    Take the Brooklyn Nets, for example, who are terrible but rank sixth in 3-point attempts per game (40.1), ninth in makes (14.4) and are off to a surprising 4-4 start.

  9. Non ideal compressible fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non_ideal_compressible...

    The compressibility factor is a dimensionless quantity which is equal to 1 for ideal gases and deviates from unity for increasing levels of non-ideality. [ 9 ] Several non-ideal models exist, from the simplest cubic equations of state (such as the Van der Waals [ 4 ] [ 10 ] and the Peng-Robinson [ 11 ] models) up to complex multi-parameter ones ...
