  2. Carbon-to-nitrogen ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon-to-nitrogen_ratio

    The recommendation is around 20-30:1. The microbes prefer a ratio of 30-35:1, [4] but the carbon is usually not completely digested (especially in the case of lignin feedstock), hence the lowered ratio. [19] An imbalance of C:N ratio causes a slowdown in the composting process and a drop in temperature.

  3. Redfield ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redfield_ratio

    The Redfield ratio or Redfield stoichiometry is the consistent atomic ratio of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus found in marine phytoplankton and throughout the deep oceans. The term is named for American oceanographer Alfred C. Redfield who in 1934 first described the relatively consistent ratio of nutrients in marine biomass samples collected ...

  4. Dilution ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_ratio

    The "dilution factor" is an expression which describes the ratio of the aliquot volume to the final volume. Dilution factor is a notation often used in commercial assays. For example, in solution with a 1/5 dilution factor (which may be abbreviated as x5 dilution ), entails combining 1 unit volume of solute (the material to be diluted) with ...

    1:480. 0.635 mm. Model railways (T) T scale, using 3 mm gauge track to represent standard gauge railways. 1:450. 0.677 mm. Model railways (T) T scale, using 3 mm gauge track to represent 3 ft 6 in ( 1,067 mm) gauge railways. Hasegawa also produces plastic ship models in this scale.

  6. Data compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression_ratio

    For example, uncompressed songs in CD format have a data rate of 16 bits/channel x 2 channels x 44.1 kHz ≅ 1.4 Mbit/s, whereas AAC files on an iPod are typically compressed to 128 kbit/s, yielding a compression ratio of 10.9, for a data-rate saving of 0.91, or 91%.

  7. Compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_ratio

    For example, if the static compression ratio is 10:1, and the dynamic compression ratio is 7.5:1, a useful value for cylinder pressure would be 7.5 1.3 × atmospheric pressure, or 13.7 bar (relative to atmospheric pressure). The two corrections for dynamic compression ratio affect cylinder pressure in opposite directions, but not in equal strength.

  8. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    The surface-area-to-volume ratio has physical dimension inverse length (L −1) and is therefore expressed in units of inverse metre (m -1) or its prefixed unit multiples and submultiples. As an example, a cube with sides of length 1 cm will have a surface area of 6 cm 2 and a volume of 1 cm 3. The surface to volume ratio for this cube is thus.

  9. Pauling's rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauling's_rules

    An octahedron may then form with a radius ratio greater than or equal to 0.414, but as the ratio rises above 0.732, a cubic geometry becomes more stable. This explains why Na + in NaCl with a radius ratio of 0.55 has octahedral coordination, whereas Cs + in CsCl with a radius ratio of 0.93 has cubic coordination.
