  2. k–omega turbulence model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K–omega_turbulence_model

    The model attempts to predict turbulence by two partial differential equations for two variables, k and ω, with the first variable being the turbulence kinetic energy (k) while the second (ω) is the specific rate of dissipation (of the turbulence kinetic energy k into internal thermal energy).

  3. Kinetic theory of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_theory_of_gases

    Thus, the ratio of the kinetic energy to the absolute temperature of an ideal monatomic gas can be calculated easily: per mole: 12.47 J/K; per molecule: 20.7 yJ/K = 129 μeV/K; At standard temperature (273.15 K), the kinetic energy can also be obtained: per mole: 3406 J; per molecule: 5.65 zJ = 35.2 meV.

  4. Free recoil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_recoil

    Free recoil / Frecoil is a vernacular term or jargon for recoil energy of a firearm not supported from behind. Free recoil denotes the translational kinetic energy (E t) imparted to the shooter of a small arm when discharged and is expressed in joules (J), or foot-pound force (ft·lb f) for non-SI units of measure.

  5. Equipartition theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equipartition_theorem

    The (Newtonian) kinetic energy of a particle of mass m, velocity v is given by = | | = (+ +), where v x, v y and v z are the Cartesian components of the velocity v.Here, H is short for Hamiltonian, and used henceforth as a symbol for energy because the Hamiltonian formalism plays a central role in the most general form of the equipartition theorem.

  6. K-epsilon turbulence model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-epsilon_turbulence_model

    Unlike earlier turbulence models, k-ε model focuses on the mechanisms that affect the turbulent kinetic energy. The mixing length model lacks this kind of generality. [2] The underlying assumption of this model is that the turbulent viscosity is isotropic, in other words, the ratio between Reynolds stress and mean rate of deformations is the same in all directions.

  7. Kinetic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy

    Kinetic energy is the movement energy of an object. Kinetic energy can be transferred between objects and transformed into other kinds of energy. [10] Kinetic energy may be best understood by examples that demonstrate how it is transformed to and from other forms of energy.

  8. Translation operator (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_operator...

    For example, if ^ acts on a particle located at position , the result is a particle at position +. Translation operators are unitary . Translation operators are closely related to the momentum operator ; for example, a translation operator that moves by an infinitesimal amount in the y {\displaystyle y} direction has a simple relationship to ...

  9. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    As a collection of classical material particles, the temperature is a measure of the mean energy of motion, called translational kinetic energy, of the particles, whether in solids, liquids, gases, or plasmas. The kinetic energy, a concept of classical mechanics, is half the mass of a particle times its speed squared. In this mechanical ...
