Deutsch: Volumen / Español: Volumen / Português: Volume / Français: Volume / Italiano: Volume
Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by some closed boundary, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains. Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre.
In the industrial and industry context, "volume" refers to the amount or quantity of something, typically expressed in terms of cubic units (such as cubic meters or cubic feet). Some examples of "volume" in the industrial context are:
-
Volume flow rate: The volume of a fluid that passes through a given cross-sectional area in a unit of time.
-
Volume of production: The total amount of a product that is manufactured or produced over a certain period of time.
-
Volume of sales: The total amount of a product that is sold over a certain period of time.
-
Volume of storage: The total amount of space available for storing a product or material.
-
Volume of liquid: The amount of a liquid, typically expressed in units of liters or gallons.
-
Volume of gas: The amount of a gas, typically expressed in units of cubic meters or cubic feet.
-
Volume fraction: The ratio of the volume of one component in a mixture to the total volume of the mixture.
These are some examples of the use of "volume" in the industrial and industry context.
