  2. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

    A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

  3. Bauschinger effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauschinger_effect

    Metal forming operations result in situations exposing the metal workpiece to stresses of reversed sign. The Bauschinger effect contributes to work softening of the workpiece, for example in straightening of drawn bars or rolled sheets, where rollers subject the workpiece to alternate bending stresses, thereby reducing the yield strength and enabling greater cold drawability of the workpiece.

  4. Backfeeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backfeeding

    A common source of unintentional backfeeding is an electrical generator (typically a portable generator) that is improperly connected to a building electrical system.A properly installed electrical generator incorporates the use of a transfer switch or generator interlock kit to ensure the incoming electrical service line is disconnected when the generator is providing power to the building.

  5. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    [4] [5] [6] A generalized model of the flow distribution in channel networks of planar fuel cells. [6] Similar to Ohm's law, the pressure drop is assumed to be proportional to the flow rates. The relationship of pressure drop, flow rate and flow resistance is described as Q 2 = ∆P/R. f = 64/Re for laminar flow where Re is the Reynolds number.

  6. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

    A back pressure valve on the gas outlet to maintain a steady pressure in the vessel. Pressure relief devices. Separators work on the principle that the three components have different densities, which allows them to stratify when moving slowly with gas on top, water on the bottom and oil in the middle. Any solids such as sand will also settle ...

  7. Eddy (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

    This can occur around cylinders and spheres, for any fluid, cylinder size and fluid speed, provided that the flow has a Reynolds number in the range ~40 to ~1000. [1] In fluid dynamics, an eddy is the swirling of a fluid and the reverse current created when the fluid is in a turbulent flow regime. [2]

    Donald Trump mocked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after his top minister’s surprise resignation following a clash on how to handle the president-elect’s looming tariffs.

  9. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

    Non-return or check valves allow the free flow of a fluid in one direction but prevent its flow in a reverse direction. They are often seen in drainage or sewage systems but may also be used in pressurized systems. Valves are available in several types, based on design and purpose: Gate, plug, or ball valves – Isolation; Globe valve ...
