  2. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylonitrile_butadiene...

    Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) (chemical formula (C 8 H 8) x · (C 4 H 6) y · (C 3 H 3 N) z) is a common thermoplastic polymer. Its glass transition temperature is approximately 105 °C (221 °F). [4] ABS is amorphous and therefore has no true melting point. ABS is a terpolymer made by polymerizing styrene and acrylonitrile in the ...

  3. Friction loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction_loss

    The difference in the character of the flow from the case of water in a pipe stems from the differing Reynolds number Re and the roughness of the duct. The friction loss is customarily given as pressure loss for a given duct length, Δ p / L , in units of (US) inches of water for 100 feet or (SI) kg / m 2 / s 2 .

  4. Thermal degradation of polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_degradation_of...

    Thermogravimetric analysis) (TGA) refers to the techniques where a sample is heated in a controlled atmosphere at a defined heating rate whilst the sample's mass is measured. When a polymer sample degrades, its mass decreases due to the production of gaseous products like carbon monoxide, water vapour and carbon dioxide.

  5. Pressure drop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_drop

    For example, halving a pipe's diameter would increase the pressure drop by a factor of = (e.g. from 2 psi to 64 psi), assuming no change in flow. Pressure drop in piping is directly proportional to the length of the piping—for example, a pipe with twice the length will have twice the pressure drop, given the same flow rate. [ 8 ]

  6. Choked flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choked_flow

    The upstream volumetric flow rate is lower than the downstream condition because of the higher upstream density. The choked velocity is a function of the upstream pressure but not the downstream. Although the velocity is constant, the mass flow rate is dependent on the density of the upstream gas, which is a function of the upstream pressure.

  7. Moody chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody_chart

    In engineering, the Moody chart or Moody diagram (also Stanton diagram) is a graph in non-dimensional form that relates the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor f D, Reynolds number Re, and surface roughness for fully developed flow in a circular pipe. It can be used to predict pressure drop or flow rate down such a pipe.

  8. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy–Weisbach_equation

    The flow rate can be converted to a mean flow velocity V by dividing by the wetted area of the flow (which equals the cross-sectional area of the pipe if the pipe is full of fluid). Pressure has dimensions of energy per unit volume, therefore the pressure drop between two points must be proportional to the dynamic pressure q.

  9. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    In fluid dynamics, pipe network analysis is the analysis of the fluid flow through a hydraulics network, containing several or many interconnected branches. The aim is to determine the flow rates and pressure drops in the individual sections of the network. This is a common problem in hydraulic design.
