    where A is the surface area, is the temperature driving force, Q is the heat flow per unit time, and h is the heat transfer coefficient. Within heat transfer, two principal types of convection can occur: Forced convection can occur in both laminar and turbulent flow.

  3. Bell–Evans–Polanyi principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell–Evans–Polanyi...

    In physical chemistry, the Evans–Polanyi principle (also referred to as the Bell–Evans–Polanyi principle, Brønsted–Evans–Polanyi principle, or Evans–Polanyi–Semenov principle) observes that the difference in activation energy between two reactions of the same family is proportional to the difference of their enthalpy of reaction.

  4. Langevin dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langevin_dynamics

    For a system of particles with masses , with coordinates = that constitute a time-dependent random variable, the resulting Langevin equation is [2] [3] ¨ = ˙ + (), where () is the particle interaction potential; is the gradient operator such that () is the force calculated from the particle interaction potentials; the dot is a time derivative ...

  5. Reversal potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversal_potential

    An important concept related to the equilibrium potential is the driving force. Driving force is simply defined as the difference between the actual membrane potential and an ion's equilibrium potential V m − E i {\displaystyle V_{\mathrm {m} }-E_{\mathrm {i} }\ } where E i {\displaystyle E_{\mathrm {i} }\ } refers to the equilibrium ...

  6. Motor protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_protein

    Motor proteins are the driving force behind most active transport of proteins and vesicles in the cytoplasm. Kinesins and cytoplasmic dyneins play essential roles in intracellular transport such as axonal transport and in the formation of the spindle apparatus and the separation of the chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis.

  7. Diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion

    the flux is equal to mobility × concentration × force per gram-ion. This is the so-called Teorell formula. [citation needed] The term "gram-ion" ("gram-particle") is used for a quantity of a substance that contains the Avogadro number of ions (particles). The common modern term is mole. The force under isothermal conditions consists of two parts:

  8. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    The induced dipole forces appear from the induction (also termed polarization), which is the attractive interaction between a permanent multipole on one molecule with an induced (by the former di/multi-pole) 31 on another. [12] [13] [14] This interaction is called the Debye force, named after Peter J. W. Debye.

  9. Fragmentation (mass spectrometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragmentation_(mass...

    The driving force of fragmentation is the strong tendency of the radical ion for electron pairing. Cleavage occurs when the radical and an odd electron from the bonds adjacent to the radical migrate to form a bond between the alpha carbon and either the heteroatom or the unsaturated functional group.
