External pressure

When normal hydrodynamic and squeeze-film action gives inadequate load support, the fluid may be pressurized externally before being introduced into the bearing film in the manner of Figure 2b and c. Such a procedure is common for starting and slow speeds with heavy machines, or with low viscosity fluids. [Pg.235]

More recently, Cheng (C7) showed that to apply tearing effectively one must take into consideration the topology of the network and the nature of problem specifications. For instance, if the network consists of a number of cyclic subnetworks imbedded in an acyclic framework and if all the external flows and one reference pressure are specified, the flows and the pressures external to the cyclic subnetworks may be computed sequentially and only...

External pressure implies that the pressure on the outside of the tank or vessel is greater than that in its interior. For atmospheric tanks, the development of an interior vacuum results in external pressure. External pressure can be extremely damaging to tanks because the surface area of tanks is usually large, generating bigb forces. The result of excessive external pressure is a buckling of the shell walls or total collapse. In some cases wind velocities during hurricanes have been sufficient to knock down and collapse tanks.

Automation in the pipetting and transferring of solutions has been suggested for many years (see, for instance, Rowe (Rl), 1916). No attempt will be made here to cover the historical developments in this field. Any automatic pipet must supply the positive or negative pressure (with respect to atmospheric pressure) needed to move a liquid from the reservoir into the pipet. This has variously been supplied by such means as hydrostatic pressure, external vacuum or pressure pumps, in... [Pg.310]

The adsorption of vapors in complex porous systems takes place approximately as follows [1-3] at first, micropore filling occurs, where the adsorption behavior is dominated nearly completely by the interactions of the adsorbate and the pore wall after this, at higher pressures, external surface coverage occurs, consisting of monolayer and multilayer adsorption on the walls of mesopores and open macropores, and, at last, capillary condensation occurs in the mesopores.

Calibration is a technique for maintaining the shape and dimensions of the product from the time the melt exits from the die until it can be cooled enough to solidify and stabilize it. Depending on the size and shape of the product, calibrators can use water-cooled plates, internal mandrel, internal air pressure, external vacuum, or a post-extrusion die to change the shape of the molten extrudate before it solidifies. [Pg.671]

If a CRM lined pressure vessel is to be designed for below -20°F (-29°C) for reasons other than seasonal atmospheric temperature. Section VIII, Division 1 of the ASME Code requires that the materials and fabrication practices meet minimum notch toughness requirements (Paragraph UG-84). Paragraphs UCS-65, 66 and 67 cover the requirements for vessels operating below -20°F. The use of SA-36 or SA-283 is not permitted. Impact tests are required except for seasonai temperature excursions beiow -20°F (-29°C) or when exempted by paragraph UCS-66 (c) which states that "no impact test is required for materials used for metal temperatures below -20°F (-29°C) when the minimum thickness is the greater of those determined under the most severe conditions of coincident pressure (external or internal) and temperature in accordance with UG-21 for temperatures of (a) -20°F (-29°C) and above and (b) below -20°F (-29°C), in which case the coincident pressure (internal if above atmospheric pressure and external if below atmospheric pressure) shall be multiplied by 2%."...

Placing packs under a positive pressure external to the pack can provide a useful indication of possible ingress. The positive pressure atmosphere may use air, water under pressure, or a concentration of any gas (or liquid) which can be pressurised (see below for further details). For tests involving combined pressure and vacuum, comments apply as for egress. [Pg.319]

If die hollow fiber is made of glassy polymers, only small fiber deformation is tolerable over the possible operating pressure range to avoid rupture of the fiber wall. Since the selective dense layer ou the outside region of die hollow fiber is normally very thin (less than 1300 A), it is understandable that the shell-feed mode, where the fiber is pressurized externally, is of most commercial interest since the dense layer may be ruptured by dilation if die fiber is pressurized internally.

Ans. Yes. The boiling point of a liquid is defined as the temperature at which its vapor pressure is equal to the pressure external to the liquid. The vapor pressure of water at 25 °C is 23.8 torr. If water is contained in a closed vessel, and the gas pressure in the vessel is reduced to 23.8 torr, the water will boil at 25 °C. [Pg.109]

Cryogenic fuel tanks are essential components for space transportation systems. Materials for cryogenic fuel tanks must safely carry pressure, external structural loads, resist leakage, and operate over an extremely wide temperature range. Aramids exhibit a wide range in service temperature and are therefore candidates for such applications. A wide variety of skin and core materials have been tested for helium gas permeability. It turned out that Nomex is superior in comparison to Kevlar . A low level of permeability could be achieved, which meets the requirements. [Pg.439]

In general, the sapphire cells can be used with a structure according to the descriptions of Price and Liidemann for borosilicate glass cells.

External lubricants and internal lubricants are added to phenolic formulations to form an optimal molding. Internal lubricants improve melt homogeneity, lower viscosity, and lower injection pressure. External lubricants act as mold release agents. Furthermore, external lubricants are insoluble in the phenolic resin and they are often non-polar materials, i.e. paraffins and waxes. In contrast to this, internal lubricants must be fully soluble in the phenohc prepolymer. Examples for internal lubricants are fatty alcohols, fatty acid salts, acid esters, and acid amides.
