2. Pressure cooker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_cooker

   Most pressure cookers have a cooking (operating) pressure setting between 0.8–1 bar (11.6–15 psi) (gauge) so the pressure cooker operates at 1.8 to 2.0 bar (absolute). The standard cooking pressure of 15 psi gauge was determined by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1917.

3. Inch of water - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_water

   It is defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 inch in height at defined conditions. At a temperature of 4 °C (39.2 °F) pure water has its highest density (1000 kg/m 3). At that temperature and assuming the standard acceleration of gravity, 1 inAq is approximately 249.082 pascals (0.0361263 psi). [2]

4. Sight glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sight_glass

   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.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grilling

   Charcoal kettle-grilling refers to the process of grilling over a charcoal fire in a kettle, [19] [20] [21] to the point that the edges are charred, or charred grill marks are visible. [22] Some restaurants seek to re-create the charcoal-grilled experience via the use of ceramic lava rocks or infrared heat sources, [ 23 ] offering meats that ...

7. Orders of magnitude (pressure) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(pressure)

   Air pressure in a bicycle tire relative to atmosphere (gauge pressure) [57] 300 kPa 50 psi Water pressure of a garden hose [58] 300 to 700 kPa 50–100 psi Typical water pressure of a municipal water supply in the US [59] 358 to 524 kPa: 52-76 psi Threshold of pain for objects outside the human body hitting it [60] 400 to 600 kPa 60–90 psi

8. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

   The most common ion gauge is the hot-cathode Bayard–Alpert gauge, with a small ion collector inside the grid. A glass envelope with an opening to the vacuum can surround the electrodes, but usually the nude gauge is inserted in the vacuum chamber directly, the pins being fed through a ceramic plate in the wall of the chamber. Hot-cathode ...

9. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

   For example, if a cylinder was rated to DOT-2015 PSI (approximately 139 bar), it would be tested at around 3360 PSI (approximately 232 bar). Water is commonly used because it is cheap and easily available, and is usually harmless to the system to be tested. Hydraulic fluids and oils may be specified where contamination with water could cause ...
