  2. Paraboloidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraboloidal_coordinates

    Differently from cylindrical and rotational parabolic coordinates, but similarly to the related ellipsoidal coordinates, the coordinate surfaces of the paraboloidal coordinate system are not produced by rotating or projecting any two-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system.

  3. Paraboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraboloid

    Paraboloid of revolution. In geometry, a paraboloid is a quadric surface that has exactly one axis of symmetry and no center of symmetry. The term "paraboloid" is derived from parabola, which refers to a conic section that has a similar property of symmetry. Every plane section of a paraboloid made by a plane parallel to

  4. Water supply network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply_network

    A water supply network or water supply system is a system of engineered hydrologic and hydraulic components that provide water supply. A water supply system typically includes the following: A drainage basin (see water purification – sources of drinking water)

  5. Parabolic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_coordinates

    The scale factors for the parabolic coordinates (,) are equal = = + Hence, the infinitesimal element of area is = (+) and the Laplacian equals = + (+) Other differential operators such as and can be expressed in the coordinates (,) by substituting the scale factors into the general formulae found in orthogonal coordinates.

  6. Water distribution system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_distribution_system

    An example of a water distribution system: a pumping station, a water tower, water mains, fire hydrants, and service lines [1] [2]. A water distribution system is a part of water supply network with components that carry potable water from a centralized treatment plant or wells to consumers to satisfy residential, commercial, industrial and fire fighting requirements.

  7. Plumbing drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumbing_drawing

    A plumbing drawing, a type of technical drawing, shows the system of piping for fresh water going into the building and waste going out, both solid and liquid. It also includes fuel gas drawings. Mainly plumbing drawing consist of water supply system drawings, drainage system drawings, irrigation system drawings, storm water system drawings. In ...

  8. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_centroids

    Solid paraboloid of revolution around z-axis: a = the radius of the base circle h = the height of the paboloid from the base cicle's center to the edge ...

  9. Water supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply

    Water supply is the provision of water by public utilities, commercial organisations, community endeavors or by individuals, usually via a system of pumps and pipes. Public water supply systems are crucial to properly functioning societies. These systems are what supply drinking water to populations around the globe. [1]
