A compensated variometer uses both speed and altitude to indicate the change in total energy. So the pilot that pushes the stick forward, diving to gain speed, and then pulls back again to regain altitude will notice no change in total energy on a compensated variometer (neglecting energy loss due to drag).
MacCready speed to fly ring for a variometer. The outer ring show various airspeeds, while the variometer shows climb rate. The index arrow, white triangle, on the ring is placed against the expected rate of climb at the next thermal. The variometer needle will then point to the optimum airspeed, listed on the ring, to be flown to that thermal.
Refusal speed is the maximum speed during takeoff from which the air vehicle can stop within the available remaining runway length for a specified altitude, weight, and configuration. [19] Incorrectly, or as an abbreviation, some documentation refers to V ref and/or V rot speeds as "V r ."
Check weigher measures precise weight of items in a conveyor line, rejecting underweight or overweight objects. Inertial balance; Katharometer; Mass spectrometers measure the mass-to-charge ratio, not the mass, of ionised particles. Weighing scale; For the ranges of mass-values see: Orders of magnitude (mass)
The Stillman diet is a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet devised in 1967 by physician Irwin Maxwell Stillman (1896–1975). [1] It focusses mostly on the complete avoidance of both fats and carbohydrates, and requires at least eight glasses of water to be consumed every day.
The pitot pressure is obtained from the pitot tube.The pitot pressure is a measure of ram air pressure (the air pressure created by vehicle motion or the air ramming into the tube), which, under ideal conditions, is equal to stagnation pressure, also called total pressure.
In statistical quality control, the individual/moving-range chart is a type of control chart used to monitor variables data from a business or industrial process for which it is impractical to use rational subgroups. [1] The chart is necessary in the following situations: [2]: 231
