    Pre-rinse with WFI (water for injection) or PW (purified water) which is performed to wet the interior surface of the tank and remove residue. It also provides a non-chemical pressure test of the CIP flow path. Caustic solution single pass flush through the vessel to drain. Caustic is the main cleaning solution.

  3. Penman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penman_equation

    The Penman equation describes evaporation (E) from an open water surface, and was developed by Howard Penman in 1948. Penman's equation requires daily mean temperature, wind speed, air pressure, and solar radiation to predict E. Simpler Hydrometeorological equations continue to be used where obtaining such data is impractical, to give comparable results within specific contexts, e.g. humid vs ...

  4. Balanced flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_flow

    Balanced flow is often an accurate approximation of the actual flow, and is useful in improving the qualitative understanding and interpretation of atmospheric motion. In particular, the balanced-flow speeds can be used as estimates of the wind speed for particular arrangements of the atmospheric pressure on Earth's surface.

  5. Venturi effect - Wikipedia

    The meter is "read" as a differential pressure head in cm or inches of water. Video of a Venturi meter used in a lab experiment Idealized flow in a Venturi tube The Venturi effect is the reduction in fluid pressure that results when a moving fluid speeds up as it flows through a constricted section (or choke) of a pipe.

  6. Water tunnel (hydrodynamic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_tunnel_(hydrodynamic)

    A water tunnel is an experimental facility used for testing the hydrodynamic behavior of submerged bodies in flowing water. It functions similar to a recirculating wind tunnel, but uses water as the working fluid, and related phenomena are investigated, such as measuring the forces on scale models of submarines or lift and drag on hydrofoils.

  7. Once Popular Tourist Hotspots That Are Now Totally Abandoned

    Bad press surrounding a scandal and Hurricane Hugo damage in 1989 forced the sprawling religious-themed water park, theme park, and residential complex to close. It's now a post-apocalyptic ghost town

  8. Ekman layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekman_layer

    In the picture above, the wind blowing North creates a surface stress and a resulting Ekman spiral is found below it in the column of water. The Ekman layer is the layer in a fluid where there is a force balance between pressure gradient force, Coriolis force and turbulent drag. It was first described by Vagn Walfrid Ekman. Ekman layers occur ...

  9. "Sesame Street" has been gentrified. After 45 seasons, the brick walls that once fenced in the neighborhood have been razed, giving way to sweeping views of what looks suspiciously like the Brooklyn Bridge (it is in fact a composite of three New York City bridges).
