specific energy [spə′sif·ik ′en·ər·jē]

(hydrology)

The energy at any cross section of an open channel, measured above the channel bottom as datum; numerically the specific energy is the sum of the water depth plus the velocity head,v²/2g,wherevis the velocity of flow andgthe acceleration of gravity.

(thermodynamics)

The internal energy of a substance per unit mass.
