In a nozzle or other constriction, the discharge coefficient (also known as coefficient of discharge or efflux coefficient) is the ratio of the actual discharge to the ideal discharge, [1] i.e., the ratio of the mass flow rate at the discharge end of the nozzle to that of an ideal nozzle which expands an identical working fluid from the same initial conditions to the same exit pressures.
Mass flow rate is defined by the limit [3] [4] ˙ = =, i.e., the flow of mass m through a surface per unit time t. The overdot on the m is Newton's notation for a time derivative . Since mass is a scalar quantity, the mass flow rate (the time derivative of mass) is also a scalar quantity.
The above equations calculate the initial instantaneous mass flow rate for the pressure and temperature existing in the source vessel when a release first occurs. The initial instantaneous flow rate from a leak in a pressurized gas system or vessel is much higher than the average flow rate during the overall release period because the pressure ...
For this reason flux represents physically a flow per unit area. ... Mass current, mass flow rate: I m = / kg s −1 [M][T] −1: Mass current density ...
For a compressible fluid in a tube the volumetric flow rate Q(x) and the axial velocity are not constant along the tube; but the mass flow rate is constant along the tube length. The volumetric flow rate is usually expressed at the outlet pressure. As fluid is compressed or expanded, work is done and the fluid is heated or cooled.

Dimensionless numbers (or characteristic numbers) have an important role in analyzing the behavior of fluids and their flow as well as in other transport phenomena. [1] They include the Reynolds and the Mach numbers, which describe as ratios the relative magnitude of fluid and physical system characteristics, such as density, viscosity, speed of sound, and flow speed.
A new report has identified several factors that can strongly predict at age 60 if people will develop dementia by 80, including having diabetes, not exercising, having a stroke, and not engaging ...
