Today on Weekly Boiler Tips we dive into the math behind pounds-per-square-inch—and why diameter drops out of the equation.

In this installment of Weekly Boiler Tips we explain how vertical height, pressurized tanks, and steam generation influence boiler pressure measurements. Water weight generates pressure, but other ...

In the 1950s, temperature-equalizing columns were commonly used in steam drum differential pressure–based devices for measuring water level. However, these columns are problematic because a ...

Freshly placed concrete in wall and column forms behaves like a liquid producing hydrostatic pressure that acts laterally on the vertical faces of the formwork. However, due to concrete stiffening ...

When the compressor starts up, this column of liquid refrigerant would be sucked out of the accumulator and into the compressor if it were not for a pressure equalization orifice at the outlet of the ...

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

New technology based on the absorption of carbon dioxide using water is reported in ... involves the use of two absorption columns: the first at atmospheric pressure for the removal of the main ...
