  2. Spherical cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cap

    This formula is valid only for configurations that satisfy < < and () <. If sphere 2 is very large such that r 2 ≫ r 1 {\displaystyle r_{2}\gg r_{1}} , hence d ≫ h {\displaystyle d\gg h} and r 2 ≈ d {\displaystyle r_{2}\approx d} , which is the case for a spherical cap with a base that has a negligible curvature, the above equation is ...

  3. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The definitions and results in this section are taken from the 1913 text Plane and Solid Geometry by George A. Wentworth and David Eugene Smith (Wentworth & Smith 1913).. A cylindrical surface is a surface consisting of all the points on all the lines which are parallel to a given line and which pass through a fixed plane curve in a plane not parallel to the given line.

  4. Circular segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_segment

    The area formula can be used in calculating the volume of a partially-filled cylindrical tank lying horizontally. In the design of windows or doors with rounded tops, c and h may be the only known values and can be used to calculate R for the draftsman's compass setting.

  5. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_centroids

    Right circular cylinder: r = the radius of the cylinder h = the height of the cylinder Right circular solid cone: r = the radius of the cone's base h = the distance ...

  6. Truncation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_(geometry)

    Types of truncation on a square, {4}, showing red original edges, and new truncated edges in cyan. A uniform truncated square is a regular octagon, t{4}={8}. A complete truncated square becomes a new square, with a diagonal orientation. Vertices are sequenced around counterclockwise, 1-4, with truncated pairs of vertices as a and b.

  7. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    The equilateral cylinder is characterized by being a right circular cylinder in which the diameter of the base is equal to the value of the height (geratrix). [ 4 ] Then, assuming that the radius of the base of an equilateral cylinder is r {\displaystyle r\,} then the diameter of the base of this cylinder is 2 r {\displaystyle 2r\,} and its ...

  8. Hydraulic diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_diameter

    The hydraulic diameter, D H, is a commonly used term when handling flow in non-circular tubes and channels. Using this term, one can calculate many things in the same way as for a round tube. When the cross-section is uniform along the tube or channel length, it is defined as [1] [2] =, where

  9. Churchill–Bernstein equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churchill–Bernstein_equation

    is the Reynolds number with the cylinder diameter as its characteristic length; Pr {\displaystyle \Pr } is the Prandtl number . The Churchill–Bernstein equation is valid for a wide range of Reynolds numbers and Prandtl numbers, as long as the product of the two is greater than or equal to 0.2, as defined above.
