  2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    Once inlet pressure is introduced, the open poppet allows flow to the diaphragm and pressure in the upper chamber increases, until the diaphragm is pushed upward against the spring, causing the poppet to reduce flow, finally stopping further increase of pressure. By adjusting the top screw, the downward pressure on the diaphragm can be ...

  3. Pressure Equipment Directive (EU) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_Equipment...

    The Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) 2014/68/EU (formerly 97/23/EC) [1] of the EU sets out the standards for the design and fabrication of pressure equipment ("pressure equipment" means steam boilers, pressure vessels, piping, safety valves and other components and assemblies subject to pressure loading) generally over one liter in volume and having a maximum pressure more than 0.5 bar gauge.

  4. Audi RS 6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_RS_6

    The RS6 also served as the debut model for Audi's "Dynamic Ride Control" (DRC) system. The DRC system is mainly mechanical, and uses a pump to provide additional pressure to individual dampers (shock absorbers) during cornering, acceleration or braking; to counteract rolling and pitching. The system can adjust the stiffness at each individual ...

  5. Mud pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_pump

    A mud pump (sometimes referred to as a mud drilling pump or drilling mud pump), is a reciprocating piston/plunger pump designed to circulate drilling fluid under high pressure (up to 7,500 psi or 52,000 kPa) down the drill string and back up the annulus. A mud pump is an important part of the equipment used for oil well drilling.

  6. Bicycle pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_pump

    Some pumps have a gauge that shows the pressure of air that is forced into the tire. Once the tire is at the correct pressure, the pump valve can be removed from the tire, and the cap can be replaced on the tire valve. There are two main types of tire valves to which the bicycle tire pump attaches. These are the Presta valve and the Schrader ...

  8. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy–Weisbach_equation

    where the pressure loss per unit length ⁠ Δp / L ⁠ (SI units: Pa/m) is a function of: , the density of the fluid (kg/m 3);, the hydraulic diameter of the pipe (for a pipe of circular section, this equals D; otherwise D H = 4A/P for a pipe of cross-sectional area A and perimeter P) (m);

  9. Dry suit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_suit

    The dry suit is a form of exposure suit, a garment worn to protect the user from adverse environmental conditions.The two most common purposes are to insulate the wearer against excessive heat loss, and to isolate the wearer from direct contact with a liquid environment during immersion or repeated multi-directional contact with bulk liquids or spray.
