  2. Hazen–Williams equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazen–Williams_equation

    The Hazen–Williams equation is an empirical relationship that relates the flow of water in a pipe with the physical properties of the pipe and the pressure drop caused by friction. It is used in the design of water pipe systems [ 1 ] such as fire sprinkler systems , [ 2 ] water supply networks , and irrigation systems.

  3. Degenerate energy levels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degenerate_energy_levels

    In quantum mechanics, an energy level is degenerate if it corresponds to two or more different measurable states of a quantum system.Conversely, two or more different states of a quantum mechanical system are said to be degenerate if they give the same value of energy upon measurement.

  4. Plumbing drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumbing_drawing

    In shop drawings pipe sizes should be marked with the text and size should be shown with double line. Each pipes with different purposes will be displayed with different colors for ease of understanding. Drainage pipes should be shown with slope. For water supply, pump capacity and number of pumps will be attached as drawing file.

  5. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    Once the friction factors of the pipes are obtained (or calculated from pipe friction laws such as the Darcy-Weisbach equation), we can consider how to calculate the flow rates and head losses on the network. Generally the head losses (potential differences) at each node are neglected, and a solution is sought for the steady-state flows on the ...

  6. Pipe-in-pipe system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe-in-pipe_system

    Internal pipes can be seen entering the external pipes in the bottom of the cabinet. In case of an internal leak, water will overflow through the external piping and can be detected inside the cabinet. A pipe-in-pipe system [1] is a form of plumbing where all water pipes are running inside another pipe. Its purpose is to ensure that any leaks ...

  7. Prony equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prony_equation

    where h f is the head loss due to friction, calculated from: the ratio of the length to diameter of the pipe L/D, the velocity of the flow V, and two empirical factors a and b to account for friction. This equation has been supplanted in modern hydraulics by the Darcy–Weisbach equation, which used it as a starting point.

    The heat capacity is = = . In general, consider the extensive variable X and intensive variable Y where X and Y form a pair of conjugate variables . In ensembles where Y is fixed (and X is allowed to fluctuate), then the average value of X will be: X = ± ∂ ln ⁡ Z ∂ β Y . {\displaystyle \langle X\rangle =\pm {\frac {\partial \ln Z ...

  9. Damp (structural) - Wikipedia

    The effect can easily be seen by simply placing a piece of porous brick, stone, or mortar in a shallow tray of water and observing how the water is absorbed into the porous material and is transported above the water line. Rising damp can be identified by a characteristic "tide mark" on the lower section of affected walls.
