  2. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

    A hydrostatic test is a way in which pressure vessels such as pipelines, plumbing, gas cylinders, boilers and fuel tanks can be tested for strength and leaks. The test involves filling the vessel or pipe system with a liquid, usually water, which may be dyed to aid in visual leak detection , and pressurization of the vessel to the specified ...

  3. Testing and inspection of diving cylinders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testing_and_inspection_of...

    A hydrostatic test involves pressurising the cylinder to its test pressure (usually 5/3 or 3/2 of the working pressure) and measuring its volume before and after the test. A permanent increase in volume above the tolerated level means the cylinder fails the test and must be permanently removed from service. [3]: sect. 5.7.3

  4. Hydraulic head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_head

    In fluid dynamics, head is a concept that relates the energy in an incompressible fluid to the height of an equivalent static column of that fluid. From Bernoulli's principle, the total energy at a given point in a fluid is the kinetic energy associated with the speed of flow of the fluid, plus energy from static pressure in the fluid, plus energy from the height of the fluid relative to an ...

  5. Hydrostatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatics

    p is the hydrostatic pressure (Pa), ρ is the fluid density (kg/m 3), g is gravitational acceleration (m/s 2), z is the height (parallel to the direction of gravity) of the test area (m), 0 is the height of the zero reference point of the pressure (m) p_0 is the hydrostatic pressure field (Pa) along x and y at the zero reference point

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_(well_drilling)

    Upon encountering a zone of higher pressure than is being exerted by the hydrostatic head of the drilling mud (including the small additional frictional head while circulating) at the bit, an increase in mud return rate would be noticed as the formation fluid influx blends in with the circulating drilling mud.
