  2. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

    Example of the widely used Bourdon pressure gauge Checking tire pressure with a spring and piston tire-pressure gauge. Pressure measurement is the measurement of an applied force by a fluid (liquid or gas) on a surface. Pressure is typically measured in units of force per unit of surface area.

  3. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    The inlet pressure gauge will indicate this pressure. The gas then passes through the normally open pressure control valve orifice and the downstream pressure rises until the valve actuating diaphragm is deflected sufficiently to close the valve, preventing any more gas from entering the low pressure side until the pressure drops again.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_Downhole_Gauge

    A permanent downhole gauge (PDG) is a pressure and/or temperature gauge permanently installed in an oil or gas well. [1] These gauges are typically installed in the tubing in the well and can measure the tubing pressure, annulus pressure, or both.

  6. Mercury pressure gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_pressure_gauge

    The parent of all mercury pressure gauges is the mercury barometer invented by Evangelista Torricelli in 1643. [15] An early engineering application of the mercury pressure gauge was to measure pressure in steam boilers during the age of steam. The first use on steam engines was by James Watt while developing the Watt steam engine between 1763 ...

  7. Vapor lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_lock

    Fuel was drawn under negative pressure (gauge pressure) from the feed line, increasing the risk of a vapor lock developing between the tank and pump. A vapor lock being drawn into the fuel pump could disrupt the fuel pressure long enough for the float chamber in the carburetor to partially or completely drain, causing fuel starvation in the engine.
