  2. Pulser pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulser_Pump

    The alternating pressure build up and escape causes a pulsing effect, hence the name: pulser pump. The maximum air pressure that can accumulate depends on the height of the water column between the air chamber and the lower reservoir. The deeper the air chamber is positioned, the higher the elevation to which the water can be pumped.

  3. Water pricing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_pricing

    Within this choice set, the preferred water tariff depends on multiple factors including: the goals of water pricing; the capacity of a water services supplier to allocate its costs, to price water, and to collect revenues from its customers; the price responsiveness of water consumers; and what is considered to be a fair or just water tariff.

  4. Pulse drip irrigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_drip_irrigation

    The additional expense of buying and maintaining a pulse drip system to a pre-existing irrigation system. The system requires a minimum of 170 kPa (25 psi) water pressure to run efficiently. Maintaining the integrity of a pressurized water supply is of critical importance.

  5. Pulsometer pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsometer_pump

    Pulsometer steam pump (drawing in a 1913 book) Chart showing pressure inside pulsometer pump Pulsometer pump at the London Museum of Water & Steam. The Pulsometer steam pump is a pistonless pump which was patented in 1872 [2] by American Charles Henry Hall.

  6. Peristaltic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peristaltic_pump

    The length of the tube (measured from the initial pinch point near the inlet to the final release point near the outlet) does not affect the flow rate. However, a longer tube implies more pinch points between inlet and outlet, increasing the pressure that the pump can generate. The flow rate of a peristaltic pump is in most cases not linear.

  7. Pulsed-power water treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed-power_water_treatment

    Pulsed-power water treatment is the process of using pulsed, electro-magnetic fields into cooling water to control scaling, biological growth, and corrosion. The process does not require the use of chemicals and helps eliminate environmental and health issues associated with the use and life-cycle management of chemicals used to treat water. [ 1 ]

  8. Pulse pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_pressure

    Pulse pressure is calculated as the difference between the systolic blood pressure and the diastolic blood pressure. [3] [4]The systemic pulse pressure is approximately proportional to stroke volume, or the amount of blood ejected from the left ventricle during systole (pump action) and inversely proportional to the compliance (similar to elasticity) of the aorta.

  9. Blood pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure_measurement

    A more accurate value of systolic blood pressure can be obtained with a sphygmomanometer and palpating the radial pulse. [11] Methods using constitutive models have been proposed to measure blood pressure from radial artery pulse. [citation needed] The diastolic blood pressure cannot be estimated by this method.
