pressure gradient's Usage Examples:

In atmospheric science, the pressure gradient (typically of air but more generally of any fluid) is a physical quantity that describes in which direction.

measurement of the pressure gradient between the WHVP and the free hepatic venous pressures (FHPV), and thus is an estimate of the pressure gradient between the.

A geostrophic current is an oceanic current in which the pressure gradient force is balanced by the Coriolis effect.

flowing in an adverse pressure gradient.

The boundary layer separates when it has travelled far enough in an adverse pressure gradient that the speed of the.

The pressure gradient does not enter into the problem.

reached when the gravitational compression is balanced by a pressure gradient.

This pressure gradient is in the opposite direction due to the strength of the.

would result from an exact balance between the Coriolis force and the pressure gradient force.

Tonicity is a measure of the effective osmotic pressure gradient; the water potential of two solutions separated by a semipermeable cell membrane.

d x {\displaystyle {\frac {\mathrm {d} p}{\mathrm {d} x}}} is the pressure gradient L is a characteristic length ρ is the fluid density ν is the kinematic.

layer is the layer in a fluid where there is a force balance between pressure gradient force, Coriolis force and turbulent drag.
