  2. Charles's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles's_law

    Charles's law (also known as the law of volumes) is an experimental gas law that describes how gases tend to expand when heated. A modern statement of Charles's law is: When the pressure on a sample of a dry gas is held constant, the Kelvin temperature and the volume will be in direct proportion. [1] This relationship of direct proportion can ...

  3. Gas laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_laws

    Charles' law, or the law of volumes, was founded in 1787 by Jacques Charles. It states that, for a given mass of an ideal gas at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, assuming in a closed system. The statement of Charles' law is as follows: the volume (V) of a given mass of a gas, at constant ...

  4. Gay-Lussac's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay-Lussac's_law

    Regarding the volume-temperature relationship, Gay-Lussac attributed his findings to Jacques Charles because he used much of Charles's unpublished data from 1787 – hence, the law became known as Charles's law or the Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac. [11] Amontons's, Charles', and Boyle's law form the combined gas law.

  5. Gas thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_thermometer

    This thermometer functions by Charles's Law. Charles's Law states that when the temperature of a gas increases, so does the volume. [2] Using Charles's Law, the temperature can be measured by knowing the volume of gas at a certain temperature by using the formula, written below. Translating it to the correct levels of the device that is holding ...

  6. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle's_law

    Here P 1 and V 1 represent the original pressure and volume, respectively, and P 2 and V 2 represent the second pressure and volume. Boyle's law, Charles's law, and Gay-Lussac's law form the combined gas law. The three gas laws in combination with Avogadro's law can be generalized by the ideal gas law.

  7. Fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_dynamics

    The conservation laws may be applied to a region of the flow called a control volume. A control volume is a discrete volume in space through which fluid is assumed to flow. The integral formulations of the conservation laws are used to describe the change of mass, momentum, or energy within the control volume.

  8. Equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_state

    In 1834, Émile Clapeyron combined Boyle's law and Charles' law into the first statement of the ideal gas law. Initially, the law was formulated as pV m = R(T C + 267) (with temperature expressed in degrees Celsius), where R is the gas constant.

  9. Volume-Control Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume-Control_Model

    The Volume-Control Model [1] is an analytical framework to describe the conditions that allow the transition of information into power. It requires controlling and regulating the connections between a large volume of information and people. This could be achieved by maintaining a balance between popular and personal information.
