ABSTRACT
In a mixture of gases, each gas exerts pressure independent of the others.
The partial pressure of each gas is proportional to the percentage of
the total volume occupied by that gas.
A description of the relation in a granular material among flow velo-
city, permeability and hydraulic gradient. This is applicable only below
a Reynolds number of 0.1. see Reynolds number
An expression for calculation of energy loss in fluid flow in terms of
velocity, pipe geometry and length. The friction factor, f, is a function
of pipe roughness and Reynolds number. The Moody diagram is used
for determination of f by iteration. see Moody diagram
