  2. Atmosphere of Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Earth

    The density of air at sea level is about 1.2 kg/m 3 (1.2 g/L, 0.0012 g/cm 3). Density is not measured directly but is calculated from measurements of temperature, pressure and humidity using the equation of state for air (a form of the ideal gas law ).

  3. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    At IUPAC standard temperature and pressure (0 °C and 100 kPa), dry air has a density of approximately 1.2754 kg/m 3. At 20 °C and 101.325 kPa, dry air has a density of 1.2041 kg/m 3. At 70 °F and 14.696 psi, dry air has a density of 0.074887 lb/ft 3.

  4. Lifting gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_gas

    The amount of mass that can be lifted by hydrogen in air per unit volume at sea level, equal to the density difference between hydrogen and air, is: (1.292 - 0.090) kg/m 3 = 1.202 kg/m 3. and the buoyant force for one m 3 of hydrogen in air at sea level is: 1 m 3 × 1.202 kg/m 3 × 9.8 N/kg= 11.8 N

  5. Liquid water content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_water_content

    The liquid water content (LWC) is the measure of the mass of the water in a cloud in a specified amount of dry air. It is typically measured per volume of air (g/m 3 ) or mass of air (g/kg) (Bohren, 1998).

  6. Cryogenic energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryogenic_energy_storage

    A 300 kW, 2.5 MWh storage capacity [25] pilot cryogenic energy system developed by researchers at the University of Leeds and Highview Power [26] that uses liquid air (with the CO 2 and water removed as they would turn solid at the storage temperature) as the energy store, and low-grade waste heat to boost the thermal re-expansion of the air ...

  7. Liquid breathing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_breathing

    Liquid breathing is a form of respiration in which a normally air-breathing organism breathes an oxygen-rich liquid which is capable of CO 2 gas exchange (such as a perfluorocarbon). [ 1 ] The liquid involved requires certain physical properties, such as respiratory gas solubility, density, viscosity, vapor pressure and lipid solubility, which ...

  8. Liquid water path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_water_path

    Liquid water path - in units of g/m 2 is a measure of the total amount of liquid water present between two points in the atmosphere. [1] LWP is an important quantity in understanding radiative transfer in the atmosphere. It is defined as the integral of liquid water content between two points in the atmosphere.
