  2. Suction pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction_pressure

    In refrigeration and air conditioning systems, the suction pressure' (also called the low-side pressure) is the intake pressure generated by the system compressor while operating. The suction pressure, along with the suction temperature the wet bulb temperature of the discharge air are used to determine the correct refrigerant charge in a system.

  3. Choking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choking

    Some foods as hot dogs, bananas, or grapes are usually split lengthwise, sliced, or both (being the cut into slices the main part for safety in many long-shaped foods). [ 17 ] Children readily put small objects into their mouths (deflated balloons, marbles, small pieces, buttons, coins, button batteries, etc.), which can lead to choking.

  4. Suction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction

    Suction is the day-to-day term for the movement of gases or liquids along a pressure gradient with the implication that the movement occurs because the lower pressure pulls the gas or liquid. However, the forces acting in this case do not originate from just the lower pressure side, but also from the side of the higher pressure, as a reaction ...

  5. Drinking straw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_straw

    A drinking straw is a utensil that uses suction to carry the contents of a beverage to one's mouth. A straw is used by placing one end in the mouth and the other in a beverage. By applying suction with the mouth, the air pressure in the mouth drops, which causes atmospheric pressure to force the

  6. Vacuum cleaner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_cleaner

    The suction is the maximum pressure difference that the pump can create. For example, a typical domestic model has a suction of about negative 20 kPa. [citation needed] This means that it can lower the pressure inside the hose from normal atmospheric pressure (about 100 kPa) by 20 kPa. The higher the suction rating, the more powerful the cleaner.

  7. Airwatt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airwatt

    The "power in airwatts" (meaning: effective power in watts) is calculated as the product of suction pressure and the air flow rate: P = p ⋅ Q {\displaystyle P=p\cdot Q} Where P {\displaystyle P} is the power in air watts , p {\displaystyle p} is the suction pressure in pascals , and Q {\displaystyle Q} is the air flow rate in cubic metres per ...

  8. Suction (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction_(medicine)

    The portable suction unit of an ambulance A dental vacuum system for central suction. In medicine, devices are sometimes necessary to create suction. Suction may be used to clear the airway of blood, saliva, vomit, or other secretions so that a patient may breathe. Suctioning can prevent pulmonary aspiration, which can
