单词 sphere
释义
sphere

Physics
  • The figure generated when a circle is rotated about a diameter. The volume of a sphere is 4π‎r3/3 and its surface area is 4π‎r2, where r is its radius. In Cartesian coordinates the equation of a sphere centred at the origin is x2+y2+z2=r2.


Mathematics
  • In 3-dimensional space, the sphere with centre C and radius r is the locus of all points whose distance from C is equal to r. If C has Cartesian coordinates (a,b,c), this sphere has equation

    (xa)2+(yb)2+(zc)2=r2.

    The interior of a sphere of radius r has volume 43πr3, and the surface area equals 4π‎r2.

    In topology, the n-dimensional sphere is denoted as Sn and is often identified with the unit sphere in ℝn+1, that is,

    Sn={(x1,x2,,xn+1)||(x1)2+(x2)2++(xn+1)2=1}.

    The spheres described above are topologically S2.


Chemical Engineering
  • A body formed from the rotation of a circle about its diameter. It has a volume of 43πr3 and surface area of 4πr2 where r is the radius. Spherical vessels are commonly used to store process fluids under high pressure, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), since there is an equal distribution of stress throughout the wall of the vessel. Cylindrical vessels and columns that operate under high internal pressure feature domed or hemispherical ends to distribute stresses. See hortonsphere.
