  2. Pressure coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_coefficient

    All the three aerodynamic coefficients are integrals of the pressure coefficient curve along the chord. The coefficient of lift for a two-dimensional airfoil section with strictly horizontal surfaces can be calculated from the coefficient of pressure distribution by integration, or calculating the area between the lines on the distribution.

  3. Hagen–Poiseuille equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagen–Poiseuille_equation

    Δp is the pressure difference between the two ends, L is the length of pipe, μ is the dynamic viscosity, Q is the volumetric flow rate, R is the pipe radius, A is the cross-sectional area of pipe. The equation does not hold close to the pipe entrance. [8]: 3 The equation fails in the limit of low viscosity, wide and/or short pipe.

  4. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    where γ is the heat capacity ratio, α is the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion, ρ = N/V is the particle density, and = (/) is the thermal pressure coefficient. In an extensive thermodynamic system, the application of statistical mechanics shows that the isothermal compressibility is also related to the relative size of fluctuations ...

  5. Joule–Thomson effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule–Thomson_effect

    For liquids, and for supercritical fluids under high pressure, increases as pressure increases. [16] This is due to molecules being forced together, so that the volume can barely decrease due to higher pressure. Under such conditions, the Joule–Thomson coefficient is negative, as seen in the figure above.

  6. Internal pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_pressure

    Internal pressure can be expressed in terms of temperature, pressure and their mutual dependence: = This equation is one of the simplest thermodynamic equations.More precisely, it is a thermodynamic property relation, since it holds true for any system and connects the equation of state to one or more thermodynamic energy properties.

  7. Raoult's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raoult's_law

    Raoult's law (/ ˈ r ɑː uː l z / law) is a relation of physical chemistry, with implications in thermodynamics.Proposed by French chemist François-Marie Raoult in 1887, [1] [2] it states that the partial pressure of each component of an ideal mixture of liquids is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure component (liquid or solid) multiplied by its mole fraction in the mixture.

  8. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    The compressibility factor should not be confused with the compressibility (also known as coefficient of compressibility or isothermal compressibility) of a material, which is the measure of the relative volume change of a fluid or solid in response to a pressure change.

  9. Starling equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starling_equation

    the product · is defined as the filtration coefficient (SI units of m 4 ·s·kg −1, or equivalently in m 3 ·s −1 ·mmHg −1) is Staverman's reflection coefficient (adimensional) By convention, outward force is defined as positive, and inward force is defined as negative.
