  2. Rise in core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rise_in_Core

    The rise in core (RIC) method is an alternate reservoir wettability characterization method described by S. Ghedan and C. H. Canbaz in 2014. The method enables estimation of all wetting regions such as strongly water wet, intermediate water, oil wet and strongly oil wet regions in relatively quick and accurate measurements in terms of Contact angle rather than wettability index.

  3. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

    A hydrostatic test is a way in which pressure vessels such as pipelines, plumbing, gas cylinders, boilers and fuel tanks can be tested for strength and leaks. The test involves filling the vessel or pipe system with a liquid, usually water, which may be dyed to aid in visual leak detection , and pressurization of the vessel to the specified ...

  4. Gas constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

    The molar gas constant (also known as the gas constant, universal gas constant, or ideal gas constant) is denoted by the symbol R or R. It is the molar equivalent to the Boltzmann constant , expressed in units of energy per temperature increment per amount of substance , rather than energy per temperature increment per particle .

  5. Leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

    In order to analyse the concentration distribution present in the sensor tube, a pump pushes the column of air in the tube past a detection unit at a constant speed. The detector unit at the end of the sensor tube is equipped with gas sensors. Every increase in gas concentration results in a pronounced "leak peak". [6] [25] [26]

  6. Hydrographic survey - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrographic_survey

    [clarification needed] It must also be corrected for errors (i.e., bad soundings,) and for the effects of tides, heave, water level [34] [35] [36] salinity and thermoclines (water temperature differences) as the velocity of sound varies with temperature and salinity and affects accuracy. Usually the surveyor has additional data collection ...

  7. Hydrostatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatics

    k is Boltzmann constant; M is the molecular mass of the gas; p is the pressure; h is the height; This is known as the barometric formula, and may be derived from assuming the pressure is hydrostatic. If there are multiple types of molecules in the gas, the partial pressure of each type will be given by this equation. Under most conditions, the ...

  8. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A stream hydrograph is commonly determining the influence of different hydrologic processes on discharge from the subject catchment. Because the timing, magnitude, and duration of groundwater return flow differs so greatly from that of direct runoff, separating and understanding the influence of these distinct processes is key to analyzing and simulating the likely hydrologic effects of ...

  9. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    The dimensionless humidity ratio is typically expressed as grams of water per kilogram of dry air, or grains of water per pound of air (7000 grains equal 1 pound). Specific enthalpy, symbolized by h, is the sum of the internal (heat) energy of the moist air in question, including the heat of the air and water vapor within. Also called heat ...
