  2. Water flow test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_flow_test

    A process to perform a water flow test is explained in the model fire codes as published by NFPA (National Fire Protection Association). If a water supply source is considered weak compared to what is required by the sprinkler system design hydraulic calculation , the water pressure can be boosted by means of a fire pump .

  3. Gravity (alcoholic beverage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_(alcoholic_beverage)

    A thermometer in use to test the temperature of beer. Gravity, in the context of fermenting alcoholic beverages, refers to the specific gravity (abbreviated SG), or relative density compared to water, of the wort or must at various stages in the fermentation. The concept is used in the brewing and wine-making industries.

  4. Hydraulic analogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_analogy

    DC is equivalent to a constant flow of water in a circuit of pipes. Low frequency AC is equivalent to water oscillating back and forth in a pipe. Higher-frequency AC and transmission lines is somewhat equivalent to sound being transmitted through the water pipes, though this does not properly mirror the cyclical reversal of alternating electric ...

  5. Marsh funnel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsh_funnel

    If water is used, the time should be 26 +/- 0.5 seconds. [2] If the time is less than this the tube is probably enlarged by erosion, if more it may be blocked or damaged, and the funnel should be replaced. In some companies, and Europe in particular, the volume collected is a litre, for which the water funnel time should be 28 seconds.

  6. FEFLOW - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FEFLOW

    FEFLOW (Finite Element subsurface FLOW system) is a computer program for simulating groundwater flow, mass transfer and heat transfer in porous media and fractured media. The program uses finite element analysis to solve the groundwater flow equation of both saturated and unsaturated conditions as well as mass and heat transport, including fluid density effects and chemical kinetics for multi ...

  7. MODFLOW - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MODFLOW

    MODFLOW-OWHM [11] (version 1.00.12, October 1, 2016), The One-Water Hydrologic Flow Model (MODFLOW-OWHM, MF-OWHM or One-Water [12]), developed cooperatively between the USGS and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, is a fusion of multiple versions of MODFLOW-2005 (NWT, LGR, FMP, SWR, SWI) into ONE version, contains upgrades and new features and ...

  8. Aquifer test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifer_test

    Aquifer testing is a common tool that hydrogeologists use to characterize a system of aquifers, aquitards and flow system boundaries. A slug test is a variation on the typical aquifer test where an instantaneous change (increase or decrease) is made, and the effects are observed in the same well.

  9. Smoke testing (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoke_testing_(software)

    Smoke testing is also done by testers before accepting a build for further testing. Microsoft claims that after code reviews, "smoke testing is the most cost-effective method for identifying and fixing defects in software". [10] One can perform smoke tests either manually or using an automated tool. In the case of automated tools, the process ...
