  2. Schmidt number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmidt_number

    The turbulent Schmidt number is commonly used in turbulence research and is defined as: [3] = where: is the eddy viscosity in units of (m 2 /s); is the eddy diffusivity (m 2 /s).; The turbulent Schmidt number describes the ratio between the rates of turbulent transport of momentum and the turbulent transport of mass (or any passive scalar).

  3. Dimensionless numbers in fluid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_numbers_in...

    Dimensionless numbers (or characteristic numbers) have an important role in analyzing the behavior of fluids and their flow as well as in other transport phenomena. [1] They include the Reynolds and the Mach numbers, which describe as ratios the relative magnitude of fluid and physical system characteristics, such as density, viscosity, speed of sound, and flow speed.

  4. Péclet number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Péclet_number

    In the context of species or mass transfer, the Péclet number is the product of the Reynolds number and the Schmidt number (Re × Sc). In the context of the thermal fluids, the thermal Péclet number is equivalent to the product of the Reynolds number and the Prandtl number (Re × Pr). The Péclet number is defined as:

  5. Schmidt (surname) - Wikipedia

    Schmidt is a common German occupational surname derived from the German word "Schmied" meaning "blacksmith" and/or "metalworker". This surname is the German ...

  6. Purity (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purity_(quantum_mechanics)

    For 2-qubits (pure or mixed) states, the Schmidt number (number of Schmidt coefficients) is at most 2. Using this and Peres–Horodecki criterion (for 2-qubits), a state is entangled if its partial transpose has at least one negative eigenvalue.

  7. Subspace theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subspace_theorem

    The following corollary to the subspace theorem is often itself referred to as the subspace theorem.If a 1,...,a n are algebraic such that 1,a 1,...,a n are linearly independent over Q and ε>0 is any given real number, then there are only finitely many rational n-tuples (x 1 /y,...,x n /y) with

  8. Wolfgang M. Schmidt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_M._Schmidt

    Wolfgang M. Schmidt (born 3 October 1933) is an Austrian mathematician working in the area of number theory. He studied mathematics at the University of Vienna , where he received his PhD, which was supervised by Edmund Hlawka , in 1955.

  9. Graetz number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graetz_number

    A Graetz number of approximately 1000 or less is the point at which flow would be considered thermally fully developed. [ 2 ] When used in connection with mass transfer the Prandtl number is replaced by the Schmidt number , Sc, which expresses the ratio of the momentum diffusivity to the mass diffusivity.
