1Cylindrical coordinate system — A cylindrical coordinate system with origin O, polar axis A, and longitudinal axis L. The dot is the point with radial distance ρ = 4, angular coordinate φ = 130°, and height z = 4. A cylindrical coordinate system is …
2Surface energy — [ Contact angle measurements can be used to determine the surface energy of a material. Here, a drop of water on glass.] Surface energy quantifies the disruption of intermolecular bonds that occurs when a surface is created. In the physics of… …
3Conical surface — A circular conical surface In geometry, a (general) conical surface is the unbounded surface formed by the union of all the straight lines that pass through a fixed point the apex or vertex and any point of some fixed space curve the directrix… …
4Churchill–Bernstein equation — In convective heat transfer, the Churchill–Bernstein equation is used to estimate the surface averaged Nusselt number for a cylinder in cross flow at various velocities.[1] The need for the equation arises from the inability to solve the… …
5Churchill-Bernstein Equation — In convective heat transfer, the Churchill Bernstein equation is used to estimate the surface averaged Nusselt number for a cylinder in cross flow at various velocities. [Some examples of said system can be seen here: Cite web | publisher =… …
6Gaussian surface — A Gaussian surface is a closed two dimensional surface through which a flux or electric field is to be calculated. The surface is used in conjunction with Gauss s law (a consequence of the divergence theorem), allowing one to calculate the total… …
7quadratic equation — Math. an equation containing a single variable of degree 2. Its general form is ax2 + bx + c = 0, where x is the variable and a, b, and c are constants (a non zero). [1680 90] * * * Algebraic equation of particular importance in optimization. A… …
8Groundwater flow equation — Used in hydrogeology, the groundwater flow equation is the mathematical relationship which is used to describe the flow of groundwater through an aquifer. The transient flow of groundwater is described by a form of the diffusion equation, similar …
9Parabolic cylindrical coordinates — are a three dimensional orthogonal coordinate system that results from projecting the two dimensional parabolic coordinate system in theperpendicular z direction. Hence, the coordinate surfaces are confocal parabolic cylinders. Parabolic… …
10Elliptic cylindrical coordinates — are a three dimensional orthogonal coordinate system that results from projecting the two dimensional elliptic coordinate system in theperpendicular z direction. Hence, the coordinate surfaces are prisms of confocal ellipses and hyperbolae. The… …
