  2. Useful conversions and formulas for air dispersion modeling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_conversions_and...

    Here are the conversion factors for those various expressions of wind speed: 1 m/s = 2.237 statute mile/h = 1.944 knots 1 knot = 1.151 statute mile/h = 0.514 m/s 1 statute mile/h = 0.869 knots = 0.447 m/s. Note: 1 statute mile = 5,280 feet = 1,609 meters

  3. Air pollutant concentrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollutant_concentrations

    The conversion equations depend on the temperature at which the conversion is wanted (usually about 20 to 25 °C). At an ambient sea level atmospheric pressure of 1 atm (101.325 kPa or 1.01325 bar), the general equation is:

  4. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    At 1 ppm the solution is a very pale yellow. As the concentration increases the colour becomes a more vibrant yellow, then orange, with the final 10,000 ppm a deep red colour. In science and engineering , the parts-per notation is a set of pseudo-units to describe small values of miscellaneous dimensionless quantities , e.g. mole fraction or ...

  5. Air pollution measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollution_measurement

    The amount of pollutant present in air is usually expressed as a concentration, measured in either parts-per notation (usually parts per billion, ppb, or parts per million, ppm, also known as the volume mixing ratio), or micrograms per cubic meter (μg/m³).

  6. Grain (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_(unit)

    [14] [15] Otherwise, water hardness is measured in the dimensionless unit of parts per million (ppm), numerically equivalent to concentration measured in milligrams per litre. [14] [15] One grain per U.S. gallon is approximately 17.1 ppm. [14] [note 1] Soft water contains 1–4 gpg of calcium carbonate equivalents, while hard water contains 11 ...

  7. Air quality index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_quality_index

    Air pollutants vary in potency, and the function used to convert from air pollutant concentration to AQI varies by pollutant. Its air quality index values are typically grouped into ranges. Each range is assigned a descriptor, a color code, and a standardized public health advisory. The AQI can increase due to an increase of air emissions.

    You've heard it a million times: Eat fewer calories, lose weight. But what if you're in a calorie deficit—consuming fewer calories than you're burning—and still not losing?

    The examples don't seem to be too accurate. A drop is usually defined as 0.05 ml, which then gives;. 1 drop in 50 ml = 1‰, 50ml is a very small cup 1 drop in 50 l = 1ppm 50 l is about 11 gallons, not 40 1 drop in 50 cubic metres = 1 ppb 1 drop = 1ppt, a 50 m swimming pool is 50*25*2 = 2,500 m^3 1 drop in 50,000,000 cubic metres = 1ppq, 50,000,000 m^3 is equivalent to a lake covering a square ...
