  2. Gas pycnometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_pycnometer

    Gas expansion pycnometer is also known as constant volume gas pycnometer. The simplest type of gas pycnometer (due to its relative lack of moving parts) consists of two chambers, one (with a removable gas-tight lid) to hold the sample and a second chamber of fixed, known (via calibration) internal volume – referred to as the reference volume or added volume.

  3. Eddy covariance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_covariance

    Eddy covariance system consisting of an ultrasonic anemometer and infrared gas analyser.. The eddy covariance (also known as eddy correlation and eddy flux) is a key atmospheric measurement technique to measure and calculate vertical turbulent fluxes within atmospheric boundary layers.

  4. Gas constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

    In any case, the context and/or unit of the gas constant should make it clear as to whether the universal or specific gas constant is being referred to. [ 10 ] In case of air, using the perfect gas law and the standard sea-level conditions (SSL) (air density ρ 0 = 1.225 kg/m 3 , temperature T 0 = 288.15 K and pressure p 0 = 101 325 Pa ), we ...

  5. Base conditions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_conditions

    The density of a gas at a specific pressure can be estimated by using the ideal gas law. Doubling absolute pressure doubles the density of a gas, and doubling absolute temperature halves the density. The number of molecules in a given gas volume depends on the pressure and temperature. This is why the pressure and temperature must be stated in ...

  6. Standard temperature and pressure - Wikipedia

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

    The molar volume of gases around STP and at atmospheric pressure can be calculated with an accuracy that is usually sufficient by using the ideal gas law. The molar volume of any ideal gas may be calculated at various standard reference conditions as shown below: V m = 8.3145 × 273.15 / 101.325 = 22.414 dm 3 /mol at 0 °C and 101.325 kPa

  7. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    Furthermore, a direct measure of the density of the fluid is obtained. Coriolis measurement can be very accurate irrespective of the type of gas or liquid that is measured; the same measurement tube can be used for hydrogen gas and bitumen without recalibration. [citation needed] Coriolis flowmeters can be used for the measurement of natural ...

  8. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

    Hydrostatic weighing, also referred to as underwater weighing, hydrostatic body composition analysis and hydrodensitometry, is a technique for measuring the density of a living person's body. It is a direct application of Archimedes' principle , that an object displaces its own volume of water.

  9. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A stream hydrograph is commonly determining the influence of different hydrologic processes on discharge from the subject catchment. Because the timing, magnitude, and duration of groundwater return flow differs so greatly from that of direct runoff, separating and understanding the influence of these distinct processes is key to analyzing and simulating the likely hydrologic effects of ...
