Etymology:
< nomo- comb. form + -gram comb. form, after French nomogramme (1905). Compare nomograph n.
A diagram representing a relationship
between three or more variables by means of a number of straight or
curved scales, so arranged that the value of one variable corresponding
to given values of the others can be found by a simple geometrical
construction (e.g. by means of one or more straight lines drawn to
intersect the scales at the appropriate values). Also called alignment chart. (OED)
"McClure has solved Eq. (12) numerically, and the results are presented in Fig. 3 as nomograms showing the time required to reach 99% of Qss for different values of k2 and k3."
