conductance
con·duc·tance C0555500 (kən-dŭk′təns)n.1. Symbol G A measure of a material's ability to conduct electric charge; the reciprocal of the resistance.2. Thermal conductance.conductance (kənˈdʌktəns) n (General Physics) the ability of a system to conduct electricity, measured by the ratio of the current flowing through the system to the potential difference across it; the reciprocal of resistance. It is measured in reciprocal ohms, mhos, or siemens. Symbol: G con•duct•ance (kənˈdʌk təns) n. (esp. in alternating current) the conducting power of a conductor, equal to the real part of the admittance, and, in a circuit with no reactance, equal to the reciprocal of the resistance. Symbol: G [1880–85] con·duc·tance (kən-dŭk′təns) A measure of the ability of a material to carry an electric charge.ThesaurusNoun | 1. | conductance - a material's capacity to conduct electricity; measured as the reciprocal of electrical resistanceelectrical phenomenon - a physical phenomenon involving electricity | Translationsconductance
conductance the ability of a system to conduct electricity, measured by the ratio of the current flowing through the system to the potential difference across it; the reciprocal of resistance. It is measured in reciprocal ohms, mhos, or siemens. conductance[kən′dək·təns] (electricity) The real part of the admittance of a circuit; when the impedance contains no reactance, as in a direct-current circuit, it is the reciprocal of resistance, and is thus a measure of the ability of the circuit to conduct electricity. Also known as electrical conductance. Designated G. (fluid mechanics) For a component of a vacuum system, the amount of a gas that flows through divided by the pressure difference across the component. (thermodynamics) thermal conductance thermal conductanceThe time rate of flow of heat through a unit area of material from one of the faces of the material to the other, for a unit temperature difference between the two faces, under steady-state conditions.conductance

A measure of conductivity; the ratio of the current flowing through a conductor to the difference in potential between the ends of the conductor; the conductance of a circuit is the reciprocal of its resistance. 2. The ease with which a fluid or gas enters and flows through a conduit, air passage, or respiratory tract; the flow per unit pressure difference. con·duc·tance (kŏn-dŭk'tăns) 1. A measure of conductivity; the ratio of the current flowing through a conductor to the difference in potential between the ends of the conductor; the conductance of a circuit is the reciprocal of its resistance. 2. The ease with which a fluid or gas enters and flows through a conduit, air passage, or respiratory tract; the flow per unit pressure difference. conductance - the measure of the ability of a conductor to carry a current, measured in siemens (S) (reciprocal of the ohm [Ω]).
- the ability of heat to flow by conduction across an object under a temperature gradient.
