  2. Detailed balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detailed_balance

    A Markov process is called a reversible Markov process or reversible Markov chain if there exists a positive stationary distribution π that satisfies the detailed balance equations [13] =, where P ij is the Markov transition probability from state i to state j, i.e. P ij = P(X t = j | X t − 1 = i), and π i and π j are the equilibrium probabilities of being in states i and j, respectively ...

  3. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    Two-plane, or dynamic, balancing is necessary if the out-of-balance couple at speed needs to be balanced. The second plane used is in the opposite wheel. Two-plane, or dynamic, balancing of a locomotive wheel set is known as cross-balancing. [11] Cross-balancing was not recommended by the American Railway Association until 1931.

  4. Balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_equation

    In some situations, terms on either side of the global balance equations cancel. The global balance equations can then be partitioned to give a set of local balance equations (also known as partial balance equations, [2] independent balance equations [7] or individual balance equations [8]). [1]

    chemical physics A branch of chemistry and physics that studies chemical processes from the point of view of physics by investigating physicochemical phenomena using techniques from atomic and molecular physics and condensed matter physics. chromatic aberration circular motion classical mechanics. Also called Newtonian mechanics.

  6. Mass balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_balance

    where w C, w H, w S, w O refer to the mass fraction of each element in the fuel oil, sulfur burning to SO 2, and AFR mass refers to the air-fuel ratio in mass units. For 1 kg of fuel oil containing 86.1% C, 13.6% H, 0.2% O, and 0.1% S the stoichiometric mass of air is 14.56 kg, so AFR = 14.56. The combustion product mass is then 15.56 kg.

  7. Conservation of mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_mass

    For example, in chemical reactions, the mass of the chemical components before the reaction is equal to the mass of the components after the reaction. Thus, during any chemical reaction and low-energy thermodynamic processes in an isolated system, the total mass of the reactants, or starting materials, must be equal to the mass of the products.

  8. Dynamic balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_balance

    Dynamic balance is the branch of mechanics that is concerned with the effects of forces on the motion of a body or system of bodies, especially of forces that do not originate within the system itself, which is also called kinetics.

    Energy balance may refer to: . Earth's energy balance, the relationship between incoming solar radiation, outgoing radiation of all types, and global temperature change. ...
