Volume is a cubic measurement that measures how many cubic units it takes to fill a solid figure. 

Friedman and Low (6) have shown that the trivalent lanthanides dissolved in the alkaline earth fluorides can be compensated by interstitial fluoride ions at either adjacent or remote sites. If the interstitial is adjacent, the crystal field of the trivalent is axial but if it is remote, the crystal field of the trivalent is cubic. Measurement of the crystal field splitting of radiation-produced divalent lanthanide ions indicate cubic symmetry 16). More recent measurements by Sabisky (20) have shown a small percentage of non-cubic sites. It is thought that the trivalent ions in the cubic symmetry are the species predominantly reduced by radiation. 

Incidentally, whenever you use cubic measure for volume, you must establish the conditions of temperature and pressure at which the cubic measure for volume exists, since the term m or ft, standing alone, is really not any particular quantity of material. 

Pressure. Standard atmospheric pressure is defined to be the force exerted by a column of mercury 760-mm high at 0°C. This corresponds to 0.101325 MPa (14.695 psi). Reference or fixed points for pressure caUbration exist and are analogous to the temperature standards cited (23). These points are based on phase changes or resistance jumps in selected materials. For the highest pressures, the most rehable technique is the correlation of the wavelength shift, /SX with pressure of the mby, R, fluorescence line and is determined by simultaneous specific volume measurements on cubic metals... 

The NAAQS are expressed ia the form of ground level concentrations (GLC), which are the concentrations of pollutant ia the ambient air as measured at ground level, ia units of either micrograms per cubic meter or ppm. In order to convert a source s emission ia kilograms per hour to a GLC, dispersion modeling must be used. 

The viscosity ratio or relative viscosity, Tj p is the ratio of the viscosity of the polymer solution to the viscosity of the pure solvent. In capillary viscometer measurements, the relative viscosity (dimensionless) is the ratio of the flow time for the solution t to the flow time for the solvent /q (Table 2). The specific (sp) viscosity (dimensionless) is also defined in Table 2, as is the viscosity number or reduced (red) viscosity, which has the units of cubic meters per kilogram (m /kg) or deciUters per gram (dL/g). The logarithmic viscosity number or inherent (inh) viscosity likewise has the units m /kg or dL/g. For Tj g and Tj p, the concentration of polymer, is expressed in convenient units, traditionally g/100 cm but kg/m in SI units. The viscosity number and logarithmic viscosity number vary with concentration, but each can be extrapolated (Fig. 9) to zero concentration to give the limiting viscosity number (intrinsic viscosity) (Table 2). 

Air Permeability. Air permeabiUty is an important parameter for certain fabric end uses, eg, parachute fabrics, boat sails, warm clothing, rainwear, and industrial air filters. Air permeabiUty of a fabric is related to its cover, or opacity. Both of these properties are related to the amount of space between yams (or fibers in the case of nonwovens). The most common method for specifying air permeabiUty of a fabric involves measuring the air flow per unit area at a constant pressure differential between the two surfaces of the fabric. This method, suitable for measuring permeabiUty of woven, knitted, and nonwoven fabrics, is described in ASTM D737. Units for air permeabiUty measured by this method are generally abbreviated as CFM, or cubic feet per square foot per minute. 

Volume. The special name Hter (L) has been approved for the cubic decimeter, but its use is restricted to volumetric capacity, dry measure, and measure of fluids (both gases andUquids). 

Wine Gallon, Wine gallon is the measure of actual volume a U.S. gallon (3.785 L) contains 3785 cm (231.0 cubic in.) a British (Imperial) gallon contains 4546 cm (277.4 cubic in.). 

Calcium has a face-centered cubic crystal stmcture (a = 0.5582 nm) at room temperature but transforms into a body-centered cubic (a = 0.4477 nm) form at 428 2° C (3). Some of the more important physical properties of calcium are given in Table 1. For additional physical properties, see references 7—12. Measurements of the physical properties of calcium are usually somewhat uncertain owing to the effects that small levels of impurities can exert. 

Optical absorption measurements give band-gap data for cubic sihcon carbide as 2.2 eV and for the a-form as 2.86 eV at 300 K (55). In the region of low absorption coefficients, optical transitions are indirect whereas direct transitions predominate for quantum energies above 6 eV. The electron affinity is about 4 eV. The electronic bonding in sihcon carbide is considered to be predominantiy covalent in nature, but with some ionic character (55). In a Raman scattering study of vahey-orbit transitions in 6H-sihcon carbide, three electron transitions were observed, one for each of the inequivalent nitrogen donor sites in the sihcon carbide lattice (56). The donor ionization energy for the three sites had values of 0.105, 0.140, and 0.143 eV (57). 

Thermal expansion values can be calculated from measurements of thermal deflection of enamel—metal composites. The cubical thermal expansion coefficient ia the temperature range of 0—300°C can also be calculated usiag the additive formula ... 

Reduced Equations of State. A simple modification to the cubic van der Waals equation, developed in 1946 (72), uses a term called the ideal or pseudocritical volume, to avoid the uncertainty in the measurement of volume at the critical point.

Flow = (iapacity = Q Lit]uid volume measured in gallons per minute (gpm) or liters per minute, cubic meters per hour, or some other rate. 

In those days, there were no oil refineries, nor bottlers of carbonated soda, nor sulfuric acid plants. There was only one liquid to consider, and move in large quantities. .. fresh water from the mountains. With only one liquid under consideration, fresh water, and no. sophisticated instrumentation, they measured the water s force, or pressure, in terms of elevation. It is for this reason that today all over the world, pump manufacturers u.se the term Head measured in meters or feet of elevation to express pre.ssure or force. The term flow expresses volume over time, such as gallons per minute, or cubic meters per second. 

In the sampling train itself, the gas flow must be measured to determine the sample volume. Parhculates and gases are measured as micrograms per cubic meter. In either case, determination of the fraction requires that the gas volume be measured for the term in the denominator. Some sample trains contain built-in flow-indicahng devices such as orifice meters, roto-meters, or gas meters. These devices require calibration to assure that they read accurately at the time of the test and under test conditions. 

The most important evaluation of an ANG storage systems performance is the measurement of the amount of usable gas which can be delivered from the system. This is frequently defined as the volume of gas obtained from the storage vessel when the pressure is reduced from the storage pressure of 3.5 MPa (35 bar) to one bar, usually at 298 K. This parameter is referred to as the delivered V/V and is easy to determine directly and free from ambiguity. Moreover, it is independent of the ratio of gas adsorbed to that which remains in the gaseous state. To determine the delivered V/V an adsorbent filled vessel of at least several hundred cubic centimeters is pressurized at 3.5 MPa and allowed to cool under that pressure to 298 K. The gas is then released over a time period sufficient to allow the bed temperature to return to 298 K. A blank, where the vessel is filled with a volume of non-porous material, such as copper shot. 

In the production of particleboards, mixtures of particles are often used as raw material. The particles differ in size and shape. A particle size distribution can be done by screening, and two of the three dimensions of the particle must be smaller than the standard measure of the screen to be passed. An exact screening of the particles to their size is only possible for rather similar shapes. Particles, however, can widely differ in shape. For a simplifying description, the shape is assumed as a flat square of length I, width b and thickness d for medium and coarse particles and cubic for the fines. The mechanical screens are graded in...
