  2. Population equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_equivalent

    Population equivalent (PE) or unit per capita loading, or equivalent person (EP), is a parameter for characterizing industrial wastewaters.It essentially compares the polluting potential of an industry (in terms of biodegradable organic matter) with a population (or certain number of people), which would produce the same polluting load.

  3. Power-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-to-weight_ratio

    A typical turbocharged V8 diesel engine might have an engine power of 250 kW (340 hp) and a mass of 380 kg (840 lb), [1] giving it a power-to-weight ratio of 0.65 kW/kg (0.40 hp/lb). Examples of high power-to-weight ratios can often be found in turbines.

  8. Dimensional analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_analysis

    In engineering and science, dimensional analysis is the analysis of the relationships between different physical quantities by identifying their base quantities (such as length, mass, time, and electric current) and units of measurement (such as metres and grams) and tracking these dimensions as calculations or comparisons are performed.

  9. Stream power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_power

    Where τ is the shear stress, S is the slope of the water, ρ is the density of water (1000 kg/m 3), g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s 2). [14] Shear stress can be used to compute the unit stream power using the formula = Where V is the velocity of the water in the stream. [14]
