The quality or degree to which something is dissipative; the tendency to lose or scatter energy.
From dissipative + -ity (noun suffix indicating a quality or degree). A technical term primarily used in physics and thermodynamics.
Physicists measure dissipativity to understand how much energy a system loses—a perfect battery has zero dissipativity, but real ones always leak some power!
