saturation constant
1Saturation vapor density — (SVD) is a concept closely tied with saturation vapor pressure. It is useful for getting an exact quantity of water vapor in the air from a relative humidity (RH). Given an RH percentage, the density of water in the air is given by RH * SVD =… …

3Saturation (chemistry) — In chemistry, saturation (from the Latin word saturare, meaning to fill[1]) has six different meanings, all based on reaching a maximum capacity In physical chemistry, saturation is the point at which a solution of a substance can dissolve no… …
4Velocity saturation — In semiconductors, when a strong enough electric field is applied, the carrier velocity in the semiconductor reaches a maximum value.cite web url = http://everything2.com/index.pl?node id=1321513 title = Velocity Saturation accessdate = 2006 10… …
5HSL and HSV — Fig. 1. HSL (a–d) and HSV (e–h). Above (a, e): cut away 3D models of each. Below: two dimensional plots showing two of a model’s three parameters at once, holding the other constant: cylindrical shells (b, f) of constant saturation, in this case… …
6Biogenic silica — (BSi) is the equivalent to the terms opal, biogenic opal, and amorphous opaline silica. BSi is essential to many plants and animals. Chemically, BSi is hydrated silica (SiO2• n H2O).Diatoms in both fresh and salt water extract silica from the… …
7climate — /kluy mit/, n. 1. the composite or generally prevailing weather conditions of a region, as temperature, air pressure, humidity, precipitation, sunshine, cloudiness, and winds, throughout the year, averaged over a series of years. 2. a region or… …
8Decompression (diving) — Divers decompressing in the water at the end of a dive Decompression in the context of diving derives from the reduction in ambient pressure experienced by the diver during the ascent at the end of a dive or hyperbaric exposure and refers to both …
9MOSFET — Two power MOSFETs in the surface mount package D2PAK. Operating as switches, each of these components can sustain a blocking voltage of 120 volts in the OFF state, and can conduct a continuous current of 30 amperes in the ON state, dissipating up …
