  2. Hoppus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoppus

    One hoppus ton is equal to 50 hoppus feet or 1.8027 cubic meters. ... Edward Hoppus introduced the unit in his 1736 manual of practical calculations. [2] [3] ...

  3. Cubic metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_metre

    A cubic metre is sometimes abbreviated to m^3, M3, m**3, cum, m3, CBM, cbm when superscript characters or markup cannot be used (e.g. in some typewritten documents and postings in Usenet newsgroups). The "cubic metre" symbol is encoded by Unicode at code point U+33A5 ㎥ SQUARE M CUBED .

  4. Molar volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_volume

    Change in volume with increasing ethanol fraction. The molar volume of a substance i is defined as its molar mass divided by its density ρ i 0: , = For an ideal mixture containing N components, the molar volume of the mixture is the weighted sum of the molar volumes of its individual components.

  5. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  6. Standard cubic feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_cubic_feet_per_minute

    Standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM) is the molar flow rate of a gas expressed as a volumetric flow at a "standardized" temperature and pressure thus representing a fixed number of moles of gas regardless of composition and actual flow conditions.

  7. Volumetric flow rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_flow_rate

    The area required to calculate the volumetric flow rate is real or imaginary, flat or curved, either as a cross-sectional area or a surface. The vector area is a combination of the magnitude of the area through which the volume passes through, A , and a unit vector normal to the area, n ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {\mathbf {n} }}} .

  8. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    Specific volume is a property of materials, defined as the number of cubic meters occupied by one kilogram of a particular substance. The standard unit is the meter cubed per kilogram (m 3 /kg or m 3 ·kg −1). Sometimes specific volume is expressed in terms of the number of cubic centimeters occupied by one gram of a substance.

  9. Coalbed methane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalbed_methane

    Coalbed methane (CBM or coal-bed methane), [1] coalbed gas, or coal seam gas (CSG [1]) is a form of natural gas extracted from coal beds. [2] In recent decades it has become an important source of energy in United States, Canada, Australia, and other countries.
