  2. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

    Hydrostatic testing is the most common method employed for testing pipes and pressure vessels. Using this test helps maintain safety standards and durability of a vessel over time. Newly manufactured pieces are initially qualified using the hydrostatic test. They are then revalidated at regular intervals according to the relevant standard.

  3. Lung float test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_float_test

    The lung float test, also called the hydrostatic test or docimasia, [1] is a controversial autopsy procedure used in determining whether lungs have undergone respiration. It has historically been employed in cases of suspected infanticide to help determine whether or not an infant was stillborn. In the test, lungs that float in water are ...

  4. Pressure vessel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_vessel

    Hydrostatic pressure tests usually use water, but pneumatic tests use air or another gas. Hydrostatic testing is preferred, because it is a safer method, as much less energy is released if a fracture occurs during the test (water does not greatly increase its volume when rapid depressurisation occurs, unlike gases, which expand explosively).

  5. Leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

    Methods of detection include hydrostatic testing, tracer-gas leak testing, infrared, laser technology, and acoustic or sonar technologies. Some technologies are used only during initial pipeline installation and commissioning, while other technologies can be used for continuous monitoring during service.

  6. 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

    p is the hydrostatic pressure (Pa), ρ is the fluid density (kg/m 3), g is gravitational acceleration (m/s 2), z is the height (parallel to the direction of gravity) of the test area (m), 0 is the height of the zero reference point of the pressure (m) p_0 is the hydrostatic pressure field (Pa) along x and y at the zero reference point
