  2. Squeeze flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze_flow

    Several squeeze flow models exist to describe Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids undergoing squeeze flow under various geometries and conditions. Numerous applications across scientific and engineering disciplines including rheometry , welding engineering, and materials science provide examples of squeeze flow in practical use.

  3. 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.

  4. O-ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring

    O-ring mounting for an ultra-high vacuum application. [11] Pressure distribution within the cross-section of the O-ring. The orange lines are hard surfaces, which apply high pressure. The fluid in the seams has lower pressure. The soft O-ring bridges the pressure over the seams. O-rings are available in various metric and inch standard sizes.

  5. Compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_ratio

    For example, if the static compression ratio is 10:1, and the dynamic compression ratio is 7.5:1, a useful value for cylinder pressure would be 7.5 1.3 × atmospheric pressure, or 13.7 bar (relative to atmospheric pressure). The two corrections for dynamic compression ratio affect cylinder pressure in opposite directions, but not in equal strength.

  6. Overall pressure ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overall_pressure_ratio

    In aeronautical engineering, overall pressure ratio, or overall compression ratio, is the amount of times the pressure increases due to ram compression and the work done by the compressor stages. The compressor pressure ratio is the ratio of the stagnation pressures at the front and rear of the compressor of a gas turbine .

  7. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    The tables below have been calculated using a heat capacity ratio, , equal to 1.4. The upstream Mach number, M 1 {\displaystyle M_{1}} , begins at 1 and ends at 5. Although the tables could be extended over any range of Mach numbers, stopping at Mach 5 is typical since assuming γ {\displaystyle \gamma } to be 1.4 over the entire Mach number ...

  8. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    Poisson's ratio of a material defines the ratio of transverse strain (x direction) to the axial strain (y direction)In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio (symbol: ν ()) is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.

  9. Damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping

    The effect of varying damping ratio on a second-order system. The damping ratio is a parameter, usually denoted by ζ (Greek letter zeta), [7] that characterizes the frequency response of a second-order ordinary differential equation. It is particularly important in the study of control theory. It is also important in the harmonic oscillator ...
