  2. Sludge volume index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sludge_volume_index

    Sludge Volume Index (SVI) is a process control parameter used to describe the settling characteristics of sludge in the aeration tank of an activated sludge process. [1] It was introduced by Mohlman in 1934 and has become one of the standard measures of the physical characteristics of activated sludge processes.

    The table values for −100 °C to 100 °C were computed by the following formulas, where T is in kelvins and vapor pressures, P w and P i, are in pascals. Over liquid water. log e (P w) = −6094.4642 T −1 + 21.1249952 − 2.724552×10 −2 T + 1.6853396×10 −5 T 2 + 2.4575506 log e (T)

  5. Primitive equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_equations

    This equation and notation works in much the same way as the temperature equation. This equation describes the motion of water from one place to another at a point without taking into account water that changes form. Inside a given system, the total change in water with time is zero. However, concentrations are allowed to move with the wind.

  6. Stream power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_power

    Where τ is the shear stress, S is the slope of the water, ρ is the density of water (1000 kg/m 3), g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s 2). [14] Shear stress can be used to compute the unit stream power using the formula = Where V is the velocity of the water in the stream. [14]

  7. Volume (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_(thermodynamics)

    P water S = Partial pressure of water in saturated air (that is, at 100% relative humidity; in this case the partial pressure is equal to the vapour pressure, which can be determined as a function of ambient temperature) P water B = Partial pressure of water in saturated air in 37 °C = 47 mmHg; T S = Standard temperature in kelvins (K) = 273 K

  8. Volumetric flow rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_flow_rate

    Volumetric flow rate is defined by the limit [3] = ˙ = =, that is, the flow of volume of fluid V through a surface per unit time t.. Since this is only the time derivative of volume, a scalar quantity, the volumetric flow rate is also a scalar quantity.

  9. Volumetric flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_flux

    In fluid dynamics, the volumetric flux is the rate of volume flow across a unit area (m 3 ·s −1 ·m −2), and has dimensions of distance/time (volume/(time*area)) - equivalent to mean velocity. The density of a particular property in a fluid's volume, multiplied with the volumetric flux of the fluid, thus defines the advective flux of that ...
