Compressibility

Compressibility, abbreviated as \(\beta \) (Greek symbol beta), also known as coefficient of compressibility, measures the change in volume under external forces for any liquid.

 

compressibility formulas

\(\large{ \beta = - \frac{1}{V} \; \frac{\partial  V}{ \partial  p}  }\)
\(\large{ \beta = \frac{1}{K}   }\)

Where:

\(\large{ \beta }\)  (Greek symbol beta) = compressibility

\(\large{  K }\) = bulk modulus

\(\large{ \partial  p }\) = pressure (the rate of change)

\(\large{  V }\) = volume

\(\large{ \partial  V }\) = volume (the rate of change)
