  2. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    At IUPAC standard temperature and pressure (0 °C and 100 kPa), dry air has a density of approximately 1.2754 kg/m 3. At 20 °C and 101.325 kPa, dry air has a density of 1.2041 kg/m 3. At 70 °F and 14.696 psi, dry air has a density of 0.074887 lb/ft 3.

  3. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    An orthographic projection of the 3D p–v–T graph showing pressure and temperature as the vertical and horizontal axes collapses the 3D plot into the standard 2D pressuretemperature diagram. When this is done, the solid–vapor, solidliquid, and liquid–vapor surfaces collapse into three corresponding curved lines meeting at the ...

  4. Barometric formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barometric_formula

    Pressure as a function of the height above the sea level. There are two equations for computing pressure as a function of height. The first equation is applicable to the atmospheric layers in which the temperature is assumed to vary with altitude at a non null lapse rate of : = [,, ()] ′, The second equation is applicable to the atmospheric layers in which the temperature is assumed not to ...

  5. Reference atmospheric model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_atmospheric_model

    The gas which comprises an atmosphere is usually assumed to be an ideal gas, which is to say: = Where ρ is mass density, M is average molecular weight, P is pressure, T is temperature, and R is the ideal gas constant. The gas is held in place by so-called "hydrostatic" forces. That is to say, for a particular layer of gas at some altitude: the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waals_equation

    The green curve thus consists of two disconnected branches, indicated two phase states: a vapor on the right, and a denser liquid on the left. [17] For this pressure, at a temperature (specified by mechanical, thermal, and material equilibrium), the boiling (saturated) liquid and condensing (saturated) vapor coexist, shown on the curve as the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_equation_of_state...

    In physics, the thermal equation of state is a mathematical expression of pressure P, temperature T, and, volume V.The thermal equation of state for ideal gases is the ideal gas law, expressed as PV=nRT (where R is the gas constant and n the amount of substance), while the thermal equation of state for solids is expressed as:

  9. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_point...

    The commonly known phases solid, liquid and vapor are separated by phase boundaries, i.e. pressuretemperature combinations where two phases can coexist. At the triple point, all three phases can coexist. However, the liquid–vapor boundary terminates in an endpoint at some critical temperature T c and critical pressure p c. This is the ...
