LETTER SYMBOLS**
1. Letter Symbol. A letter symbol is a angle character, such as t for temperature, with subscript or superscript if required, such as tf for temperature of saturated liquid, used to desig nate a physical magnitude in mathematical equations and ex pressions. Two or more symbols together always represent a product
Letter symbols are to be distinguished from abbreviations, mathematical signs and operators, graphical symbols and chemical symbols.
2. The Same Symbols should be used for the some physical magnitude regardless of the units employed and regardless of special values occurring for different states, points, parts, times, etc. Units or special values may be distinguished when necessary by subscripts, superscripts, or by upper- and lower-
1 Latter Symbol* for Mechanic# erf Solid Bodice, Z103-lM8,eod Letter Sym bols for Heat mod Tto-iwipwwU, Y10.4-1857 (American Standard* Aeeoc*-
p. 878).
Abbreviations and Symbols
case letters when both are specifically included as symbols in a standard list. The units used should be indicated when necessary. Sometimes different symbols are used for the com ponents of a vector.
3. Subscript A subscript preferably should be a single char acter. It is commonly employed to indicate constancy of a particular physical magnitude, such as pressure or tempera ture, when there are other variables. A' multiple subscript, sometimes divided by a comma, refers'to more than one state* point, part, time, etc. A subscript should not be at
tached to' a subscript. 4. Superscript. A symbol with a superscript, such as a
prime (0 or a second ('0, should be enclosed in parentheses, braces, or brackets before affixing an exponentr-^e.g.-- (/)'). A complicated exponent (or any other' expression fre quently repeated) may be replaced by a angle symbol selected to represent it..Reference marks should not be attached.to
symbols.

5. Unlisted Magnitudes. To symbolize.a special value of a
listed magnitude, see Item 4. The symbol chosen by an author
for a physical magnitude not appearing in any standard list
should be one that does not already have a different meaning
in the field of the text.
6. When standard symbols in related fields are needed,
reference to ASA standards is recommended:.
Letter Symbols for Heat and Thermodynamics, ASA
Y10.4-1957
Letter Symbols for Hydraulics, ASA Y10.2-1958 .
Letter Symbols for Chemical Engineering, ASA Y10.12-
1955
,'
Letter Symbols for Mechanics of Solid Bodies, ASA Z10.3-
1948
. `-
Letter Symbols for. Physics, ASA Z10.6-1948
Additional symbols and variations in the standard symbols
found necessary in the individual chapters will be found-in
lists at the end of Chapters 2, 3, 4, 6, and 27.
