  2. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

    Surgical correction of the hypertropia is desired to achieve binocularity, manage diplopia and/or correct the cosmetic defect. Steps to achieve the same depend on mechanism of the hypertropia and identification of the offending muscles causing the misalignment.

  3. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    In thermodynamics, the Volume Correction Factor (VCF), also known as Correction for the effect of Temperature on Liquid (CTL), is a standardized computed factor used to correct for the thermal expansion of fluids, primarily, liquid hydrocarbons at various temperatures and densities.

  4. Pressure-correction method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-correction_method

    Pressure-correction method is a class of methods used in computational fluid dynamics for numerically solving the Navier-Stokes equations normally for incompressible flows.

  5. PISO algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PISO_algorithm

    PISO is a pressure-velocity calculation procedure for the Navier-Stokes equations developed originally for non-iterative computation of unsteady compressible flow, but it has been adapted successfully to steady-state problems.

  6. Pressure prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_prism

    A pressure prism is a way of visually describing the variation of hydrostatic pressure within a volume of fluid. When variables of fluid density , depth, gravity , and other forces such as atmospheric pressure are charted, the resulting figure somewhat resembles a prism .

  7. Kozeny–Carman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kozeny–Carman_equation

    The Kozeny–Carman equation (or Carman–Kozeny equation or Kozeny equation) is a relation used in the field of fluid dynamics to calculate the pressure drop of a fluid flowing through a packed bed of solids.

  8. Volume of fluid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_fluid_method

    An illustration of fluid simulation using VOF method. In computational fluid dynamics, the volume of fluid (VOF) method is a free-surface modelling technique, i.e. a numerical technique for tracking and locating the free surface (or fluidfluid interface).

  9. Projection method (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_method_(fluid...

    In fluid dynamics, The projection method is an effective means of numerically solving time-dependent incompressible fluid-flow problems. It was originally introduced by Alexandre Chorin in 1967 as an efficient means of solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.

  10. Center of pressure (fluid mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_pressure_(fluid...

    In fluid mechanics, the center of pressure is the point on a body where a single force acting at that point can represent the total effect of the pressure field acting on the body. The total force vector acting at the center of pressure is the surface integral of the pressure vector field across the surface of the body.

  11. Finite volume method for unsteady flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    Finite volume method for unsteady flow. Unsteady flows are characterized as flows in which the properties of the fluid are time dependent. It gets reflected in the governing equations as the time derivative of the properties are absent.
