  2. particleIllusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ParticleIllusion

    Featuring the super emitter which is usually applied in emitters of firework and explosion effects. particleIllusion (pIllusion for short) is a stand-alone computer graphics application based on the particle system technique which allows users to create graphical animations, e.g. fire, explosions, smoke, fireworks, and various abstract visual ...

  3. Air shower (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_shower_(physics)

    Air shower formation in the atmosphere. First proton collides with a particle in the air creating pions, protons and neutrons. The air shower is formed by interaction of the primary cosmic ray with the atmosphere, and then by subsequent interaction of the secondary particles, and so on.

  4. Particle shower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_shower

    In particle physics, a shower is a cascade of secondary particles produced as the result of a high-energy particle interacting with dense matter. The incoming particle interacts, producing multiple new particles with lesser energy; each of these then interacts, in the same way, a process that continues until many thousands, millions, or even billions of low-energy particles are produced.

  5. Particle-laden flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-laden_flow

    The starting point for a mathematical description of almost any type of fluid flow is the classical set of Navier–Stokes equations.To describe particle-laden flows, we must modify these equations to account for the effect of the particles on the carrier, or vice versa, or both - a suitable choice of such added complications depend on a variety of the parameters, for instance, how dense the ...

  6. Capillary action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_action

    Capillary action of water (polar) compared to mercury (non-polar), in each case with respect to a polar surface such as glass (≡Si–OH). Capillary action (sometimes called capillarity, capillary motion, capillary rise, capillary effect, or wicking) is the process of a liquid flowing in a narrow space without the assistance of external forces like gravity.

  7. Particulates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particulates

    Particulates or atmospheric particulate matter (see below for other names) are microscopic particles of solid or liquid matter suspended in the air.The term aerosol refers to the particulate/air mixture, as opposed to the particulate matter alone, [1] though it is sometimes defined as a subset of aerosol terminology. [2]

  8. Sedimentation (water treatment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentation_(water...

    In settling process theory, a particle will settle only if: In a vertical ascending flow, the ascending water velocity is lower than the limit sedimentation velocity. In a longitudinal flow, the ratio of the length of the tank to the height of the tank is higher than the ratio of the water velocity to the limit sedimentation velocity.

    They are initially dissolved in separate water solutions, which are each colorless. When mixed, as the lead from one solution and the iodide from the other combine to form lead(II) iodide (PbI 2 ), which is insoluble at low temperature and has a bright golden-yellow color.
