  2. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    In fluid dynamics, dynamic pressure (denoted by q or Q and sometimes called velocity pressure) is the quantity defined by: [1] = where (in SI units): q is the dynamic pressure in pascals (i.e., N/m 2, ρ (Greek letter rho) is the fluid mass density (e.g. in kg/m 3), and; u is the flow speed in m/s.

    Velocity vectors. Close-up view of one quadrant of the flow. Colors: pressure field. Red is high and blue is low. Velocity vectors. Pressure field (colors), stream function (black) with contour interval of 0.2Ur from bottom to top, velocity potential (white) with contour interval 0.2Ur from left to right.

  4. Haldane's decompression model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane's_decompression_model

    Haldane's decompression model is a mathematical model for decompression to sea level atmospheric pressure of divers breathing compressed air at ambient pressure that was proposed in 1908 by the Scottish physiologist, John Scott Haldane (2 May 1860 – 14/15 March 1936), [1] who was also famous for intrepid self-experimentation.

  5. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, density, speed and height. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a parcel of fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in either the pressure or the height above a datum. [1]:

  7. Flow coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_coefficient

    ΔP is the pressure drop across the valve (expressed in psi). In more practical terms, the flow coefficient C v is the volume (in US gallons) of water at 60 °F (16 °C) that will flow per minute through a valve with a pressure drop of 1 psi (6.9 kPa) across the valve.

  8. Standard temperature and pressure - Wikipedia

    V m = 10.7316 × 519.67 / 14.696 = 379.48 ft 3 /lbmol at 60 °F and 14.696 psi (or about 0.8366 ft 3 /gram mole) V m = 10.7316 × 519.67 / 14.730 = 378.61 ft 3 /lbmol at 60 °F and 14.73 psi; Technical literature can be confusing because many authors fail to explain whether they are using the ideal gas constant R, or the specific gas constant R s.

  9. Stokes stream function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_stream_function

    The azimuthal velocity component u φ does not depend on the stream function. Due to the axisymmetry, all three velocity components ( u ρ , u φ , u z ) only depend on ρ and z and not on the azimuth φ. The volume flux, through the surface bounded by a constant value ψ of the Stokes stream function, is equal to 2π ψ.
