  2. Gay-Lussac's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay-Lussac's_law

    Some introductory physics textbooks still define the pressure-temperature relationship as Gay-Lussac's law. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Gay-Lussac primarily investigated the relationship between volume and temperature and published it in 1802, but his work did cover some comparison between pressure and temperature.

  3. Antoine equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoine_equation

    A variant of this single set approach is using a special parameter set fitted for the examined temperature range. The second solution is switching to another vapor pressure equation with more than three parameters. Commonly used are simple extensions of the Antoine equation (see below) and the equations of DIPPR or Wagner. [2] [3]

  4. Potential flow around a circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_flow_around_a...

    The problem of potential compressible flow over circular cylinder was first studied by O. Janzen in 1913 [4] and by Lord Rayleigh in 1916 [5] with small compressibility effects. Here, the small parameter is the square of the Mach number M 2 = U 2 / c 2 ≪ 1 {\displaystyle \mathrm {M} ^{2}=U^{2}/c^{2}\ll 1} , where c is the speed of sound .

  5. Problem set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_set

    A problem set, sometimes shortened as pset, [1] is a teaching tool used by many universities. Most courses in physics, math, engineering, chemistry, and computer science will give problem sets on a regular basis. [2] They can also appear in other subjects, such as economics.

  6. Stefan problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan_problem

    This is an energy balance which defines the position of the moving interface. Note that this evolving boundary is an unknown (hyper-)surface; hence, Stefan problems are examples of free boundary problems. Analogous problems occur, for example, in the study of porous media flow, mathematical finance and crystal growth from monomer solutions. [1]

  7. Henry's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry's_law

    In simple words, we can say that the partial pressure of a gas in vapour phase is directly proportional to the mole fraction of a gas in solution. An example where Henry's law is at play is the depth-dependent dissolution of oxygen and nitrogen in the blood of underwater divers that changes during decompression, going to decompression sickness.

  8. Standard state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_state

    The standard state of a material (pure substance, mixture or solution) is a reference point used to calculate its properties under different conditions.A degree sign (°) or a superscript Plimsoll symbol (⦵) is used to designate a thermodynamic quantity in the standard state, such as change in enthalpy (ΔH°), change in entropy (ΔS°), or change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG°).

  9. Fugacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fugacity

    Numerical example: Nitrogen gas (N 2) at 0 °C and a pressure of P = 100 atmospheres (atm) has a fugacity of f = 97.03 atm. [1] This means that the molar Gibbs energy of real nitrogen at a pressure of 100 atm is equal to the molar Gibbs energy of nitrogen as an ideal gas at 97.03 atm.
