  2. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    [4] [5] [6] A generalized model of the flow distribution in channel networks of planar fuel cells. [6] Similar to Ohm's law, the pressure drop is assumed to be proportional to the flow rates. The relationship of pressure drop, flow rate and flow resistance is described as Q 2 = ∆P/R. f = 64/Re for laminar flow where Re is the Reynolds number.

  3. Boundary conditions in fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_conditions_in...

    Showing outlet flow velocity in a pipe. In outlet boundary conditions, the distribution of all flow variables needs to be specified, mainly flow velocity. This can be thought as a conjunction to inlet boundary condition. This type of boundary conditions is common and specified mostly where outlet velocity is known. [1]

  4. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

    Due to flow reversal, pressure in the pipe falls and the compressor regains its normal stable operation (let at point B) delivering the gas at higher flow rate (˙). But the control valve still corresponds to the flow rate ˙. Due to this compressor's operating conditions will again return to D through points C and S.

  5. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

    A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

  6. Automatic balancing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_balancing_valve

    A diaphragm within the valve keeps the outlet pressure constant, and this delivers a constant flow to the terminal. The added advantage of pressure independent control valves is that, when fitted with an actuator, they replace the manual balancing valve and motorized control valve with a single valve, thus reducing installation cost. [citation ...

  7. Pressure–volume diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure–volume_diagram

    A PV diagram plots the change in pressure P with respect to volume V for some process or processes. Typically in thermodynamics, the set of processes forms a cycle, so that upon completion of the cycle there has been no net change in state of the system; i.e. the device returns to the starting pressure and volume.

  8. Surge in compressors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_in_compressors

    Thus, the adverse pressure gradient could not be suppressed by the compressor and the system would rapidly involve an overshoot of adverse pressure gradient which would dramatically reduce the mass flow rate or even cause flows to reverse. On the other hand, the pressure in the reservoir would gradually drop due to less flux delivered by the ...

  9. Control-flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-flow_diagram

    In software and systems development, control-flow diagrams can be used in control-flow analysis, data-flow analysis, algorithm analysis, and simulation. Control and data are most applicable for real time and data-driven systems. These flow analyses transform logic and data requirements text into graphic flows which are easier to analyze than ...
