A gas lift chair is a form of office chair that allows the user to modify their height in relation to the height of a desk, leading to an increase in comfort and ergonomic benefit. A patent describing a common configuration of a gas lift cylinder by John Wang, published 20 May 1989.
Regulatory definition: For the purpose of U.S. regulation and GTRs (Global Technical Regulations)—and for clear communication in safety and seating design [7] —the H-point is defined as the actual hip point of the seated crash test dummy itself, [7] whereas the R-point (or SgRP, seating reference point) is the theoretical hip point used by ...
The gas-lift mandrel is a device installed in the tubing string of a gas-lift well onto which or into which a gas-lift valve is fitted. There are two common types of mandrels. In a conventional gas-lift mandrel, a gas-lift valve is installed as the tubing is placed in the well. Thus, to replace or repair the valve, the tubing string must be pulled.
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.
For a thin airfoil of any shape the lift slope is π 2 /90 ≃ 0.11 per degree. At higher angles a maximum point is reached, after which the lift coefficient reduces. The angle at which maximum lift coefficient occurs is the stall angle of the airfoil, which is approximately 10 to 15 degrees on a typical airfoil.
However, while it does generate lift, it also generates a large amount of drag. [8] Since even a flat plate can generate lift, a significant factor in foil design is the minimization of drag. An example of this is the rudder of a boat or aircraft. When designing a rudder a key design factor is the minimization of drag in its neutral position ...
The vast majority of people whose call records have been stolen by Chinese hackers have not been notified, according to industry sources.
A road car usually has a ride height around 16–17 cm (6.3–6.7 in), while an SUV usually lies around 19–22 cm (7.5–8.7 in). Two well-known extremes are the Ferrari F40 with a 12.5 cm (4.9 in) ride height [1] and the Hummer H1 with a 40.64 cm (16.0 in) ride height.
