  2. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  3. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

    The block would still weigh 3 kilograms on dry land (ignoring the weight of air in the cavity) but it would now displace 2 liters of water so its immersed weight would be only 1 kilogram (at 4 °C). In either of the examples above, the correct density can be calculated by the following equation: [ 2 ]

  5. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    The density of quartz is around 2.65 g/cm 3 but the (dry) bulk density of a mineral soil is normally about half that density, between 1.0 and 1.6 g/cm 3. In contrast, soils rich in soil organic carbon and some friable clays tend to have lower bulk densities ( <1.0 g/cm 3 ) due to a combination of the low-density of the organic materials ...

  6. Minimum design metal temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_Design_Metal...

    (MDMT) M is the lowest temperature permitted according to the metallurgy of the vessel fabrication materials and the thickness of the vessel component, that is, according to the low temperature embrittlement range and the charpy impact test requirements per temperature and thickness, for each one of the vessel's components.

  7. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    For example, in the brewing industry, the Plato table lists sucrose concentration by weight against true SG, and was originally (20 °C/4 °C) [7] i.e. based on measurements of the density of sucrose solutions made at laboratory temperature (20 °C) but referenced to the density of water at 4 °C which is very close to the temperature at which ...

  8. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    Since API gravity is an inverse measure of a liquid's density relative to that of water, it can be calculated by first dividing the liquid's density by the density of water at a base temperature (usually 60 °F) to compute Specific Gravity (SG), then converting the Specific Gravity to Degrees API as follows: = =

  9. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    Away from the design point the middle stages of an axial compressor continue to operate at about the optimum angle of attack but the front stages deviate one way, towards stall, and the rear stages in the opposite direction towards choke. [6] The deviation was acceptable up to a design pressure ratio of about 5:1, producing only a loss in ...
