  2. Free molecular flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_molecular_flow

    Gas flow can be grouped in four regimes: For Kn≤0.001, flow is continuous, and the Navier–Stokes equations are applicable, from 0.001<Kn<0.1, slip flow occurs, from 0.1≤Kn<10, transitional flow occurs and for Kn≥10, free molecular flow occurs. [6] In free molecular flow, the pressure of the remaining gas can be considered as effectively ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotope-ratio_mass...

    The standard gas may be measured before and after the sample or after a series of sample measurements. While continuous-flow IRMS instruments can achieve higher sample throughput and are more convenient to use than dual inlet instruments, the yielded data is of approximately 10-fold lower precision.

  4. Gibbs free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_free_energy

    In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy (or Gibbs energy as the recommended name; symbol ) is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum amount of work, other than pressure–volume work, that may be performed by a thermodynamically closed system at constant temperature and pressure.

  5. Euler equations (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_equations_(fluid...

    Thus for an incompressible inviscid fluid the specific internal energy is constant along the flow lines, also in a time-dependent flow. The pressure in an incompressible flow acts like a Lagrange multiplier , being the multiplier of the incompressible constraint in the energy equation, and consequently in incompressible flows it has no ...

  6. Equilibrium unfolding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_unfolding

    In the less extensive technique of equilibrium unfolding, the fractions of folded and unfolded molecules (denoted as and , respectively) are measured as the solution conditions are gradually changed from those favoring the native state to those favoring the unfolded state, e.g., by adding a denaturant such as guanidinium hydrochloride or urea.

  7. Energy minimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_minimization

    As described above, some method such as quantum mechanics can be used to calculate the energy, E(r) , the gradient of the PES, that is, the derivative of the energy with respect to the position of the atoms, ∂E/∂r and the second derivative matrix of the system, ∂∂E/∂r i ∂r j, also known as the Hessian matrix, which describes the curvature of the PES at r.

  8. Continuity equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_equation

    Therefore, there is a continuity equation for energy flow: + = where u, local energy density (energy per unit volume), q, energy flux (transfer of energy per unit cross-sectional area per unit time) as a vector, An important practical example is the flow of heat.

  9. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle can be derived from the principle of conservation of energy. This states that, in a steady flow, the sum of all forms of energy in a fluid is the same at all points that are free of viscous forces. This requires that the sum of kinetic energy, potential energy and internal energy remains constant.
