  2. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

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

    However, the liquid–vapor boundary terminates in an endpoint at some critical temperature T c and critical pressure p c. This is the critical point. The critical point of water occurs at 647.096 K (373.946 °C; 705.103 °F) and 22.064 megapascals (3,200.1 psi; 217.75 atm; 220.64 bar). [3]

  3. NOx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx

    The formation rate is primarily a function of temperature and the residence time of nitrogen at that temperature. At high temperatures, usually above 1300 °C (2600 °F), molecular nitrogen (N 2) and oxygen (O 2) in the combustion air dissociate into their atomic states and participate in a series of reactions.

  4. Nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen

    Nitrogen is commonly used during sample preparation in chemical analysis. It is used to concentrate and reduce the volume of liquid samples. Directing a pressurised stream of nitrogen gas perpendicular to the surface of the liquid causes the solvent to evaporate while leaving the solute(s) and un-evaporated solvent behind. [89]

  5. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    As temperature and pressure increase along the coexistence curve, the gas becomes more like a liquid and the liquid becomes more like a gas. At the critical point, the two are the same. So for temperatures above the critical temperature (126.2 K), there is no phase transition; as pressure increases the gas gradually transforms into something ...

  6. Supercritical adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_adsorption

    For example, “a fluid is considered to be ‘supercritical’ when its temperature and pressure exceed the temperature and pressure at the critical point”. In the studies of supercritical extraction, however, “supercritical fluid” is applied for a narrow temperature region of 1-1.2 T c {\displaystyle T_{c}} or T c {\displaystyle T_{c ...

  7. Decompression theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_theory

    The absorption of gases in liquids depends on the solubility of the specific gas in the specific liquid, the concentration of gas, customarily measured by partial pressure, and temperature. [1] In the study of decompression theory the behaviour of gases dissolved in the tissues is investigated and modeled for variations of pressure over time.

    A 2022 Outside article on heat stroke cites the highest known body temperature that a human was able to survive: “The highest body temperature measured was only 17 degrees above normal. Willie ...

  9. Kinetic theory of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_theory_of_gases

    The mathematical similarities between the expressions for shear viscocity, thermal conductivity and diffusion coefficient of the ideal (dilute) gas is not a coincidence; It is a direct result of the Onsager reciprocal relations (i.e. the detailed balance of the reversible dynamics of the particles), when applied to the convection (matter flow ...
