  2. Head (vessel) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_(Vessel)

    This is a torispherical head also named Semi ellipsoidal head (According to DIN 28013). The radius of the dish is 80% of the diameter of the cylinder ( r 1 = 0.8 × D o {\displaystyle r_{1}=0.8\times Do} ).

  3. Equivalent spherical diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_spherical_diameter

    Strictly speaking, the laser diffraction equivalent diameter is the diameter of a sphere yielding, on the same detector geometry, the same diffraction pattern as the particle. In the size regimen where the Fraunhofer approximation is valid, this diameter corresponds to the projected area diameter of the particle in random orientation. For ...

  4. Equivalent radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_radius

    US hat size is the circumference of the head, measured in inches, divided by pi, rounded to the nearest 1/8 inch. This corresponds to the 1D mean diameter. [1] Diameter at breast height is the circumference of tree trunk, measured at height of 4.5 feet, divided by pi. This corresponds to the 1D mean diameter.

  5. Hemispherical combustion chamber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemispherical_combustion...

    A hemispherical head ("hemi-head") gives an efficient combustion chamber with minimal heat loss to the head, and allows for two large valves.However, a hemi-head usually allows no more than two valves per cylinder due to the difficulty in arranging the valve gear for four valves at diverging angles, and these large valves are necessarily heavier than those in a multi-valve engine of similar ...

  6. Pressure head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_head

    Pressure head is a component of hydraulic head, in which it is combined with elevation head. When considering dynamic (flowing) systems, there is a third term needed: velocity head. Thus, the three terms of velocity head, elevation head, and pressure head appear in the head equation derived from the Bernoulli equation for incompressible fluids:

  7. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    The outside diameter of a gear is the diameter of the addendum (tip) circle. In a bevel gear it is the diameter of the crown circle. In a throated worm gear it is the maximum diameter of the blank. The term applies to external gears, this is can also be known from major diameter. [1]

  8. Hydraulic head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_head

    Hydraulic head or piezometric head is a measurement related to liquid pressure (normalized by specific weight) and the liquid elevation above a vertical datum. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is usually measured as an equivalent liquid surface elevation, expressed in units of length, at the entrance (or bottom) of a piezometer .

  9. Total dynamic head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dynamic_head

    In fluid dynamics, total dynamic head (TDH) is the work to be done by a pump, per unit weight, per unit volume of fluid. TDH is the total amount of system pressure, measured in feet, where water can flow through a system before gravity takes over, and is essential for pump specification.
