  2. SIUI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIUI

    SIUI develops and manufactures a variety of ultrasound imaging systems and accessories for both human and veterinary use, and NDT equipment including phased-array ultrasonic flaw detector, [3] conventional flaw detector, [4] thickness gauge, probes [5] and accessories. The company is currently organized into three product category divisions ...

  3. Water detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_detector

    A water detector is an electronic device that is designed to detect the presence of water for purposes such as to provide an alert in time to allow the prevention of water leakage. A common design is a small cable or device that lies flat on a floor and relies on the electrical conductivity of water to decrease the resistance across two contacts.

  4. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    A simple example is a semi-infinite domain bounded by a rigid wall and filled with viscous fluid. [12] At time t = 0 {\displaystyle t=0} the wall is made to move with constant speed U {\displaystyle U} in a fixed direction (for definiteness, say the x {\displaystyle x} direction and consider only the x − y {\displaystyle x-y} plane), one can ...

  5. Backflow prevention device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backflow_prevention_device

    In water distribution systems, water is normally maintained at a significant pressure to enable water to flow from the tap, shower, or other fixture. Water pressure may fail or be reduced when a water main bursts, pipes freeze, or there is unexpectedly high demand on the water system (for example, when several fire hydrants are opened).

  6. Fault detection and isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_detection_and_isolation

    Fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) is a subfield of control engineering which concerns itself with monitoring a system, identifying when a fault has occurred, and pinpointing the type of fault and its location. Two approaches can be distinguished: A direct pattern recognition of sensor readings that indicate a fault and an analysis ...

  7. Ultrasonic testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_testing

    A common example is ultrasonic thickness measurement, which tests the thickness of the test object, for example, to monitor pipework corrosion and erosion. Ultrasonic testing is extensively used to detect flaws in welds.

  8. Upstream contamination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upstream_contamination

    When pouring water from a higher container to a lower one, particles floating in the latter can climb upstream into the upper container. A definitive explanation is still lacking: experimental and computational evidence indicates that the contamination is chiefly driven by surface tension gradients, however the phenomenon is also affected by ...

  9. Flow injection analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_injection_analysis

    Convection of the sample occurs by laminar flow, in which the linear velocity of the sample at the tube's walls is zero, while the sample at the center of the tube moves with a linear velocity twice that of the carrier stream. The result is the parabolic flow profile, before the sample passes through a detector to a waste container. [7]
