  2. Squeeze flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze_flow

    To measure macroscopic squeeze flow effects, models exist for two the most common surfaces: circular and rectangular plate squeeze flows. Single asperity squeeze flow diagram at initial and follow-on conditions; plates (assumed to be semi-infinite, in gray), droplet (green).

  3. Talk:O-ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:O-ring

    A1: This varies widely by O-ring material and joint design, and also depends (as you might expect) on the lifespan during which you need the O-ring to seal. For common O-ring elastomers, max temps may be expected to be between 100 and 200 degC, with max pressures between 500 and 5000 kPa. Unclben 23:53, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

  4. Cylinder stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder_stress

    For the thin-walled assumption to be valid, the vessel must have a wall thickness of no more than about one-tenth (often cited as Diameter / t > 20) of its radius. [4] This allows for treating the wall as a surface, and subsequently using the Young–Laplace equation for estimating the hoop stress created by an internal pressure on a thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel:

  5. O-ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring

    Typical O-ring and application. An O-ring, also known as a packing or a toric joint, is a mechanical gasket in the shape of a torus; it is a loop of elastomer with a round cross-section, designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, forming a seal at the interface.

  6. Napkin ring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napkin_ring_problem

    Reprint of 1935 edition. A problem on page 101 describes the shape formed by a sphere with a cylinder removed as a "napkin ring" and asks for a proof that the volume is the same as that of a sphere with diameter equal to the length of the hole.

  7. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

    The squeeze-film pressure sensor is a type of MEMS resonant pressure sensor that operates by a thin membrane that compresses a thin film of gas at high frequency. Since the compressibility and stiffness of the gas film are pressure dependent, the resonance frequency of the squeeze-film pressure sensor is used as a measure of the gas pressure.

  8. O-ring boss seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring_boss_seal

    An o-ring boss seal is a technique for joining two fluid-carrying pipes, hoses, or tubing. In an o-ring boss (abbreviated ORB) system, a male-threaded part is inserted into a female-threaded part, providing a mechanical seal. This system differs from others in that a nut is tightened over an o-ring in a chamfered area, creating a fluid-tight ...
