  2. Degassing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degassing

    Degassing, also known as degasification, is the removal of dissolved gases from liquids, especially water or aqueous solutions. There are numerous methods for removing gases from liquids. Gases are removed for various reasons. Chemists remove gases from solvents when the compounds they are working on are possibly air- or oxygen-sensitive ( air ...

  3. Degasser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degasser

    For a small amount of entrained gas in a drilling fluid, the degasser can play a major role of removing small bubbles that a liquid film has enveloped and entrapped [1].In order for it to be released and break out the air and gas such as methane, H 2 S and CO 2 from the mud to the surface, the drilling fluid must pass through a degassing technique, and it can be accomplished by the equipment ...

  4. History of fluid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_fluid_mechanics

    The history of fluid mechanics is a fundamental strand of the history of physics and engineering. The study of the movement of fluids (liquids and gases) and the forces that act upon them dates back to pre-history. The field has undergone a continuous evolution, driven by human dependence on water, meteorological conditions and internal ...

  5. Refrigerant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerant

    Refrigerant. A refrigerant is a working fluid used in the refrigeration cycle of air conditioning systems and heat pumps where in most cases they undergo a repeated phase transition from a liquid to a gas and back again. Refrigerants are heavily regulated because of their toxicity and flammability and the contribution of CFC and HCFC ...

  6. Air conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_conditioning

    Air conditioning can be achieved using a mechanical 'air conditioner' or by other methods, including passive cooling and ventilative cooling. [ 2][ 3] Air conditioning is a member of a family of systems and techniques that provide heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC). [ 4] Heat pumps are similar in many ways to air conditioners ...

  7. Leak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak

    Common types of leaks for many people include leaks in vehicle tires, which allows air to leak out and results in flat tires, and leaks in containers, which spills the contents. Leaks can occur or develop in many different kinds of household, building, vehicle, marine, aircraft, or industrial fluid systems, whether the fluid is a gas or liquid.

  8. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor is the gaseous phase of water. It is one state of water within the hydrosphere. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice. Water vapor is transparent, like most constituents of the atmosphere. [ 4] Under typical atmospheric conditions ...

  9. Two-phase flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_flow

    Different modes of two-phase flows. In fluid mechanics, two-phase flow is a flow of gas and liquid — a particular example of multiphase flow.Two-phase flow can occur in various forms, such as flows transitioning from pure liquid to vapor as a result of external heating, separated flows, and dispersed two-phase flows where one phase is present in the form of particles, droplets, or bubbles in ...
