  2. Calculation of buoyancy flows and flows inside buildings

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculation_of_buoyancy...

    Buoyancy flow calculation and force calculations are used in successfully predicting the effect of various natural calamities upon buildings, ships, aircraft and other commercial and non-commercial vehicles. They are also used in locating a prominent location for placing the exhaust chimney for the large scale industries. Also the shape of the ...

  3. Salsabil (fountain) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salsabil_(fountain)

    A salsabil (or salasabil [1]), also known as a shadirwan, [2] is a type of fountain which maximizes the surface area of the water. It is used for evaporative cooling of buildings, cooling and aeration of drinking water, and ornament [3] [4] (it has also been used to prevent eavesdropping [5]). The water may flow in a thin sheet or thin streams ...

  4. Heron's fountain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heron's_fountain

    The water coming out of the tube may go higher than the level in any container, but the net flow of water is downward. If, however, the volumes of the air supply and fountain supply containers are designed to be much larger than the volume of the basin, with the flow rate of water from the nozzle of the spout being held constant, the fountain ...

  5. Flow coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_coefficient

    SG is the specific gravity of the fluid (for water = 1), ΔP is the pressure drop across the valve (expressed in psi). In more practical terms, the flow coefficient C v is the volume (in US gallons) of water at 60 °F (16 °C) that will flow per minute through a valve with a pressure drop of 1 psi (6.9 kPa) across the valve.

  6. Fountain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain

    In modern fountains a water filter, typically a media filter, removes particles from the water—this filter requires its own pump to force water through it and plumbing to remove the water from the pool to the filter and then back to the pool. The water may need chlorination or anti-algal treatment, or may use biological methods to filter and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hach_Company

    Hach Company manufactures and distributes analytical instruments and reagents used to test the quality of water and other liquid solutions. Manufactured and distributed worldwide, Hach systems are designed to simplify analysis by offering on-line instrumentation, portable laboratory equipment, prepared reagents, easy-to-follow methods, and technical support.

  8. Standard step method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Step_Method

    Gradually varied flow occurs when the change in flow depth per change in flow distance is very small. In this case, hydrostatic relationships developed for uniform flow still apply. Examples of this include the backwater behind an in-stream structure (e.g. dam, sluice gate, weir, etc.), when there is a constriction in the channel, and when ...

  9. Rainflow-counting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainflow-counting_algorithm

    This method considers the flow of water down of a series of pagoda roofs. Regions where the water will not flow identify the rainflow cycles which are seen as an interruption to the main cycle. Reduce the time history to a sequence of (tensile) peaks and (compressive) valleys. Imagine that the time history is a template for a rigid sheet ...
