Philipp Forchheimer, the Glossary

Index Philipp Forchheimer

Philipp Forchheimer (7 August 1852 in Vienna – 2 October 1933 in Dürnstein, Lower Austria) was an Austrian engineer, a pioneer in the field of civil engineering and practical hydraulics, who also contributed to the archaeological study of Byzantine water supply systems.[1]

Austrian Empire

The Austrian Empire, officially known as the Empire of Austria, was a multinational European great power from 1804 to 1867, created by proclamation out of the realms of the Habsburgs.

See Philipp Forchheimer and Austrian Empire

Darcy friction factor formulae

In fluid dynamics, the Darcy friction factor formulae are equations that allow the calculation of the Darcy friction factor, a dimensionless quantity used in the Darcy–Weisbach equation, for the description of friction losses in pipe flow as well as open-channel flow.

See Philipp Forchheimer and Darcy friction factor formulae

Darcy's law

Darcy's law is an equation that describes the flow of a fluid through a porous medium.

See Philipp Forchheimer and Darcy's law

Dürnstein

Dürnstein is a small town on the Danube river in the Krems-Land district, in the Austrian state of Lower Austria.

Ephesus

Ephesus (Éphesos; Efes; may ultimately derive from Apaša) was a city in Ancient Greece on the coast of Ionia, southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey.

See Philipp Forchheimer and Ephesus

Ergun equation

The Ergun equation, derived by the Turkish chemical engineer Sabri Ergun in 1952, expresses the friction factor in a packed column as a function of the modified Reynolds number.

Josef Strzygowski

Josef Rudolph Thomas Strzygowski (March 7, 1862 – January 2, 1941) was a Polish-Austrian art historian known for his theories promoting influences from the art of the Near East on European art, for example that of Early Christian Armenian architecture on the early Medieval architecture of Europe, outlined in his book, Die Baukunst der Armenier und Europa. Philipp Forchheimer and Josef Strzygowski are Explorers of West Asia.

Packed bed

In chemical processing, a packed bed is a hollow tube, pipe, or other vessel that is filled with a packing material.

Rector (academia)

A rector (Latin for 'ruler') is a senior official in an educational institution, and can refer to an official in either a university or a secondary school.

Reynolds number

In fluid dynamics, the Reynolds number is a dimensionless quantity that helps predict fluid flow patterns in different situations by measuring the ratio between inertial and viscous forces.
