How to Use a Nomogram | Pipe Sizing Example

A nomogram, also called a nomograph, alignment chart or abaque, is a graphical calculating device. The field of nomography was invented in 1884 by the French engineer Philbert Maurice d’Ocagne (1862-1938). Nomographs have been used extensively since its invention to provide engineers with fast graphical calculations of complicated formulas to a practical precision. How Do Nomograms Work? Nomograms use a parallel coordinate system rather than standard Cartesian coordinates. They consist of a set of n scales, one for each variable in an equation. By knowing the values of n-1 variables, the value of the unknown variable can be found. The two-dimensional diagrams allow the approximate graphical computation of a function. The result is obtained by laying a straightedge across the known values on the scales and reading the unknown value from where it crosses the scale for that variable. The virtual or drawn line created by the straightedge is called an index line or isopleth. ...

Perspectives on Science & Technology, Lessons in Units of Measure

Occasionally one will come across a chart, graph or nomograph which provides a unique perspective on some particular unit-of-measure. An example is "Feynman's Distance Perspective Chart". Typically the particular illustration will be focused more on one individual scientific or technological field of endeavor. Hence, on this page, these illustrations are organized in a two-tier approach. First the unit-of-measure heading or tier which is then followed by the "field of endeavor" heading or tier. For a list of the units-of-measure and "fields of endeavor" covered go to the "Perspective Block Introduction" page of this site. The sources for these illustrations are varied. Typically the link will direct the user to the web-based source of the illustration. If the illustration is out of a book, a second link providing access to purchase of the original book the illustration is found in is also provided. If the source of the illustration i...
