  2. Rupture disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupture_disc

    A rupture disc (burst) Pressure-effect acting at a rupture disc A rupture disc, also known as a pressure safety disc, burst disc, bursting disc, or burst diaphragm, is a non-reclosing pressure relief safety device that, in most uses, protects a pressure vessel, equipment or system from overpressurization or potentially damaging vacuum conditions.

  3. Blowout (tire) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_(tire)

    Automobile tire damaged after an impact. A blowout (also known as a burst) is a rapid, explosive loss of inflation pressure of a pneumatic tire.. The primary cause for a blowout is encountering an object that cuts or tears the structural components of the tire to the point where the structure is incapable of containing the compressed air, with the escaping air adding to further tear through ...

  7. Nanofiltration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanofiltration

    This module design is limited for nanofiltration by the pressure they can withstand before bursting, limiting the maximum flux possible. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] Due to both the high energy operating costs of turbulent flow and the limiting burst pressure, tubular modules are more suited to 'dirty' applications where feeds have particulates such as ...

  8. Blast wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_wave

    In simpler terms, a blast wave is an area of pressure expanding supersonically outward from an explosive core. It has a leading shock front of compressed gases. The blast wave is followed by a blast wind of negative gauge pressure, which sucks items back in towards the center. The blast wave is harmful especially to objects very close to the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barlow's_formula

    The design of a complex pressure containment system involves much more than the application of Barlow's formula. For example, in 100 countries the ASME BPVCcode stipulates the requirements for design and testing of pressure vessels.
