  2. Multi-step flow theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-step_flow_theory

    This media influence theory shows that information dissemination is a social occurrence, which may explain why certain media campaigns do not alter audiences’ attitudes. An important factor of the multi-step flow theory is how the social influence is modified. Information is affected by the social norms of each new community group that it ...

  3. Turbomachinery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbomachinery

    A centrifugal pump is an example of a radial flow turbomachine. Mixed flow turbomachines – When axial and radial flow are both present and neither is negligible, the device is termed a mixed flow turbomachine. [9] It combines flow and force components of both radial and axial types. A Francis turbine is an example of a mixed-flow turbine.

  4. Pump as turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_As_Turbine

    A pump as turbine (PAT), also known as a pump in reverse, is an unconventional type of reaction water turbine, which behaves in a similar manner to that of a Francis turbine. The function of a PAT is comparable to that of any turbine , to convert kinetic and pressure energy of the fluid into mechanical energy of the runner.

  5. Pump-jet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump-jet

    A pump-jet, hydrojet, or water jet is a marine system that produces a jet of water for propulsion. The mechanical arrangement may be a ducted propeller (axial-flow pump), a centrifugal pump, or a mixed flow pump which is a combination of both centrifugal and axial designs. The design also incorporates an intake to provide water to the pump and ...

  6. Pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump

    The conversion from the mechanical energy of motor into the potential energy of flow comes by means of multiple whirls, which are excited by the impeller in the working channel of the pump. Generally, a radial-flow pump operates at higher pressures and lower flow rates than an axial- or a mixed-flow pump.

  7. Submersible pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_pump

    This is the main operational mechanism of radial and mixed flow pumps. In the HSP, the motor is a hydraulic motor rather than an electrical motor, and may be closed cycle (keeping the power fluid separate from the produced fluid) or open cycle (mingling the power fluid with the produced fluid downhole, with surface separation).

  8. Continuous stirred-tank reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_stirred-tank...

    The continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR), also known as vat-or backmix reactor, mixed flow reactor (MFR), or a continuous-flow stirred-tank reactor (CFSTR), is a common model for a chemical reactor in chemical engineering and environmental engineering. A CSTR often refers to a model used to estimate the key unit operation variables when using ...

  9. Multiphase flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiphase_flow

    Sketch of multiphase flow in an oil pipe, where the continuous phase is the liquid (blue) carrying smaller particles. Gas (white) and oil particles (black) are in a disperse phase. In fluid mechanics, multiphase flow is the simultaneous flow of materials with two or more thermodynamic phases. [1]
