nomogram

The graphical representation of an equation of three variables f(u, v, w) = 0, by means of three graphical scales (not necessarily straight), arranged in such a manner that any straight line, called an index line, cuts the scales in values of u, v, and w satisfying the equation. By introducing auxiliary variables and constructing auxiliary scales, equations containing more than three variables may also be represented by nomograms.
