  2. Testing and inspection of diving cylinders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testing_and_inspection_of...

    A hydrostatic test involves pressurising the cylinder to its test pressure (usually 5/3 or 3/2 of the working pressure) and measuring its volume before and after the test. A permanent increase in volume above the tolerated level means the cylinder fails the test and must be permanently removed from service. [3]: sect. 5.7.3

  3. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

    A hydrostatic test is a way in which pressure vessels such as pipelines, plumbing, gas cylinders, boilers and fuel tanks can be tested for strength and leaks. The test involves filling the vessel or pipe system with a liquid, usually water, which may be dyed to aid in visual leak detection , and pressurization of the vessel to the specified ...

    is the hydrostatic pressure (Pa), is the fluid density (kg/m 3), is gravitational acceleration (m/s 2), is the height (parallel to the direction of gravity) of the test area (m), is the height of the zero reference point of the pressure (m)

  6. Hydrolock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolock

    Hydrolock (a shorthand notation for hydrostatic lock or hydraulic lock) is an abnormal condition of any device which is designed to compress a gas by mechanically restraining it caused by a liquid entering the device.

  7. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

    Hydrostatic gauges (such as the mercury column manometer) compare pressure to the hydrostatic force per unit area at the base of a column of fluid. Hydrostatic gauge measurements are independent of the type of gas being measured, and can be designed to have a very linear calibration. They have poor dynamic response.

  8. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

    Tire uniformity refers to the dynamic mechanical properties of pneumatic tires as strictly defined by a set of measurement standards and test conditions accepted by global tire and car makers. These standards include the parameters of radial force variation , lateral force variation , conicity, ply steer, radial run-out , lateral run-out , and ...

  9. Automatic lubricator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_lubricator

    An automatic lubricator is a device fitted to a steam engine to supply lubricating oil to the cylinders and, sometimes, the bearings and axle box mountings as well. [1] There are various types of automatic lubricator, which include various designs of displacement, hydrostatic and mechanical lubricators.
