    C 2 H 3 Na O 2: Molar mass: 82.034 g·mol −1 : Appearance White deliquescent powder or crystals Odor: Vinegar (acetic acid) odor when heated to decomposition [1]: Density: 1.528 g/cm 3 (20 °C, anhydrous)

  3. Physical coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_coefficient

    Ballistic coefficient (BC) (aerodynamics) (units of kg/m 2) - A measure of a body's ability to overcome air resistance in flight. BC is a function of mass, diameter, and drag coefficient. Transmission coefficient (quantum mechanics) (dimensionless) - Represents the probability flux of a transmitted wave relative to that of an incident wave.

  4. Nusselt number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nusselt_number

    The right-hand side is now the ratio of the temperature gradient at the surface to the reference temperature gradient, while the left-hand side is similar to the Biot modulus. This becomes the ratio of conductive thermal resistance to the convective thermal resistance of the fluid, otherwise known as the Nusselt number, Nu.

  5. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    Note that the especially high molar values, as for paraffin, gasoline, water and ammonia, result from calculating specific heats in terms of moles of molecules. If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol ...

  6. Mass transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_transfer_coefficient

    Mass transfer coefficients can be estimated from many different theoretical equations, correlations, and analogies that are functions of material properties, intensive properties and flow regime (laminar or turbulent flow). Selection of the most applicable model is dependent on the materials and the system, or environment, being studied.

  7. Drag (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_(physics)

    In aerodynamics, aerodynamic drag, also known as air resistance, is the fluid drag force that acts on any moving solid body in the direction of the air's freestream flow. [ 22 ] From the body's perspective (near-field approach), the drag results from forces due to pressure distributions over the body surface, symbolized D p r {\displaystyle D ...
