Parent topics
- Physics [r]: The study of forces and energies in space and time. [e]
- Chemistry [r]: The science of matter, or of the electrical or electrostatical interactions of matter. [e]
- Engineering [r]: a branch of engineering that uses chemistry, biology, physics, and math to solve problems involving fuel, drugs, food, and many other products. [e]
- Thermodynamics [r]: The statistical description of the properties of molecular systems [e]
Subtopics
- Gas compressor [r]: A machine that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. [e]
- Partial pressure [r]: The pressure which each gas in a gas mixture would have if it alone occupied the same volume at the same temperature. [e]
- Vapor pressure [r]: The pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its liquid or solid phase. [e]
Units
- Bar (unit) [r]: A unit of pressure measurement (symbol: bar) defined as 100,000 Pascals. [e]
- Pascal (unit) [r]: The SI unit of pressure; the force of one newton acting uniformly over an area of one square metre. [e]
- Boiling point [r]: The temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the external environmental pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid initiates boiling. [e]
- Reference conditions of gas temperature and pressure [r]: The temperature and pressure conditions that define the density of a gas and serve to document a stated gas volume. [e]
- Temperature [r]: A fundamental quantity in physics - describes how warm or cold a system is. [e]
- U.S. customary units [r]: The units of measurement that are currently used in the United States. [e]
