liquid-gas surface
1Liquid — is one of the principal states of matter. A liquid is a fluid that has the particles loose and can freely form a distinct surface at the boundaries of its bulk material. The surface is a free surface where the liquid is not constrained by a… …
2Surface science — is the study of physical and chemical phenomena that occur at the interface of two phases, including solid liquid interfaces, solid gas interfaces, solid vacuum interfaces, and liquid gas interfaces. It includes the fields of surface chemistry… …
3liquid — liquidly, adv. liquidness, n. /lik wid/, adj. 1. composed of molecules that move freely among themselves but do not tend to separate like those of gases; neither gaseous nor solid. 2. of, pertaining to, or consisting of liquids: a liquid diet. 3 …
4Gas — This article is about the physical properties of gas as a state of matter. For the uses of gases, and other meanings, see Gas (disambiguation). Ga …
5surface tension — Physics. the elasticlike force existing in the surface of a body, esp. a liquid, tending to minimize the area of the surface, caused by asymmetries in the intermolecular forces between surface molecules. [1875 80] * * * Property of a liquid… …
6Liquid crystal — Schlieren texture of liquid crystal nematic phase Liquid crystals (LCs) are a state of matter that have properties between those of a conventional liquid and those of a solid crystal.[1] For instance, an LC may flow like a liquid, but its… …
7Surface layer — The surface layer is the layer of a turbulent fluid most affected by interaction with a solid surface or the surface separating a gas and a liquid. In surface layers the characteristics of the turbulence depend on distance from the interface.… …
8Gas well deliquification — Gas well deliqufication, also referred to as gas well dewatering , is the general term for technologies used to remove water build up from producing gas wells.When natural gas flows to the surface in a producing gas well, the gas carries liquids… …
9Liquid breathing — Intervention MeSH D021061 Liquid breathing is a form of respiration in which a normally air breathing organism breathes an oxygen rich liquid (such as a perfluorocarb …
10Liquid metal embrittlement — is a phenomenon of practical importance, where certain ductile metals experience drastic loss in tensile ductility or undergo brittle fracture when tested in the presence of specific liquid metals. Generally, a tensile stress, either externally… …
