Water gauge on a steam locomotive. Here the water is at the “top nut”, the maximum working level. Note the patterned backplate to help reading and toughened glass shroud. A sight glass or water gauge is a type of level sensor, a transparent tube through which the operator of a tank or boiler can observe the level of liquid contained within.
The United States Army Transportation Corps S160 Class is a class of 2-8-0 Consolidation steam locomotive, designed for heavy freight work in Europe during World War II.A total of 2,120 were built and they worked on railroads across much of the world, including Africa, Asia, all of Europe and South America.
The resultant number determines the level at which the particular bid should be made (Klinger 1994) according to this scale: 7 = a one level bid; 8 = a two level bid; 9 = a three level bid .... etc. An alternative way to look at this is that the bid should be to the level of the number of tricks equal to the SQT number.
Model railway scales and gauges are standardized in NEM 010, [1] which covers several gauges for each scale. Narrow gauges are indicated by an additional letter added after the base scale as follows: no letter = standard gauge (1,250–1,700 mm or 49.2–66.9 in) m = metre gauge (850–1,250 mm or 33.5–49.2 in)
Thus the scale and approximate prototype gauge are represented, with the model gauge used (9 mm for H0e gauge; 6.5 mm for H0f gauge) being implied. [ 2 ] The scales used include the general European modelling range of Z, N, TT, H0, 0 and also the large model engineering gauges of I to X, including 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 , 5, 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 and 10 + 1 ⁄ 4 ...
A staff gauge or head gauge is calibrated scale which is used to provide a visual indication of liquid level. When installed perpendicular to an inclined or sloped surface, a staff gauge is usually calibrated so that the indicated level is the true vertical level .
The underlying premise of LTC is that if a suit is evenly distributed, i.e. three players hold three cards in the suit and one player holds four, a maximum of three losers can be assumed in any one suit held by the partnership and, in turn, the maximum number of losers held by the partnership in all four suits is 24 (three in each of the four suits in each of two hands, i.e. 3 x 4 x 2 = 24).
It forms one part of a number of neurological assessments, including the first aid based AVPU scale and the more medically based Glasgow Coma Scale. The objective of pain stimulus is to assess the level of consciousness of the patient by inducing vocalisation in an acceptable, consistent and replicable manner, and to this end, there are a ...
