Although this change in cross-section may be hardly noticeable, and thus involving moderate stresses within the elastic range of easily workable materials, the strain of the material of the tube is magnified by forming the tube into a C shape or even a helix, such that the entire tube tends to straighten out or uncoil, elastically, as it is pressurized.

Note that this leaves the fuel at atmospheric pressure, and therefore it cannot travel into a throat which has been pressurized by a supercharger mounted upstream ; in such cases, the entire carburetor must be contained in an airtight pressurized box to operate.

A 2007 systematic review concluded that treatment with HBOT showed no significant difference from that of pressurized room air, and that some children undergoing HBOT may experience adverse events such as seizures and the need for ear pressure equalization tubes ; due to poor quality of data assessment the review also concluded that estimates of the prevalence of adverse events are uncertain.

An emulsifier such as propylene glycol is used to suspend the OC in water, and pressurized to make it aerosol in pepper spray.

* By fluid, exploits the low viscosity of a layer of fluid, such as a lubricant or as a pressurized medium to keep the two solid parts from touching, or by reducing the normal force between them.

In sealed vehicles and pressure vessels such as pressurized airliners, submersibles and spacecraft, these considerations may be critical to safety, and complex environmental control systems including equipment to maintain pressure are needed.

Similar braiding is used on pressurized rubber hoses, such as in plumbing and hydraulic brake systems in automobiles.

Due to their superior performance in extreme conditions and high altitude, early 20th century polar expeditions relied on pressurized burner designs such as the kerosene-burning Primus stove.

The heat may be provided by a gas, by kerosene, or by a pressurized liquid such as " white gas ," which is essentially naphtha.

To maintain structural integrity, the structure must be pressurized such that the internal pressure equals or exceeds any external pressure being applied to the structure ( i. e. wind pressure ).

The typical smoke generator consists of a pressurized container holding a low viscosity oil such as Chevron / Texaco " Canopus 13 " ( formerly " Corvus Oil ").

The Star Wars Expanded Universe states that many of the planets of the galaxy were colonized and adapted to the atmosphere and gravity of the most populated species, and there are also many species — such as Kel Dor and Skakoans — that need to use devices like breathing masks or pressurized suits.

Researchers have also been experimenting with extreme temperature change to exterminate RIFAs, such as injecting liquid nitrogen or pressurized steam into RIFA nests.

Thermal storage media include pressurized steam, concrete, a variety of phase change materials, and molten salts such as calcium, sodium and potassium nitrate.

An alternative is to decrease the surface area to volume ratio of the pressurized volume, by using more anvils to converge upon a higher-order platonic solid, such as a dodecahedron.

An open pressurized system such as an automobile air conditioner can leak its operating gases, if it is not operated frequently enough.

In certain applications, such as submarines, pressurized aircraft, and spacecraft, ventilation air is also needed to provide oxygen, and to dilute carbon dioxide for survival.

With proper antifreeze a wide temperature range can be tolerated by the engine coolant, such as to for 50 % ( by volume ) propylene glycol diluted with water and a 15 psi pressurized coolant system.

** The breech refers to the mass of solid metal behind the bottom of the bore extending to the base of the breech and including the base ring ; it also generally refers to the end of the cannon opposite the muzzle, i. e., the location where the explosion of the gunpowder begins as opposed to the opening through which the pressurized gas escapes.

This is because if the pressure rises high enough, a compressor stall will occur, where the stored pressurized air decompresses backward across the impeller and out the inlet.

pneumatic chart recorders, where a pressurized bellows displaces a pen.

Airliners developed since the 1940s have had pressurized cabins ( or more accurately, pressurized hulls including baggage holds ) to enable them to carry passengers safely at high altitudes where low oxygen levels and air pressure would otherwise cause sickness or death.

Heat is transferred through the walls of these tubes to the lower pressure secondary coolant located on the sheet side of the exchanger where it evaporates to pressurized steam.

Later systems incorporated pressurized fire hydrants, where the pressure was increased when a fire alarm was sounded.

In general, commercial aircraft are pressurized so that the cabin air is at a pressure equivalent to no more than 8, 000 feet altitude ( usually somewhat lower altitude ), where one can breathe normally without an oxygen mask.

On spaceflight where a habitable module was not flown, but pallets were flown, a pressurized cylinder known as the igloo carried the subsystems needed to operate the Spacelab equipment.

Hydrostatic bearings are externally pressurized fluid bearings, where the fluid is usually oil, water or air, and the pressurization is done by a pump.

In the early 1930s, he transferred to the Central Design Office, where he was assigned work on stratospheric aircraft and balloons, and pressurized cockpits.

Carbonators use mechanical pumps to pump water into a pressurized chamber where it is combined with from pressurized tanks at approximately.

The pressurized, carbonated water then flows to taps or to mixing heads where it is mixed with flavorings as it is dispensed.

The soda siphon, or siphon — a glass or metal pressure vessel with a release valve and spout for dispensing pressurized soda water — was a common sight in bars and in early-to mid-20th century homes where it became a symbol of middle-class affluence.

Others include air ducts, water cooling, filtering, sealing openings to make air flow over hot components instead of escaping near where it entered, or even the adding of a tank of pressurized carbon dioxide or liters of mineral oil to the case.

This pressurized, gaseous steam is then allowed to expand, and is superheated before being injected back into the tumbler where its heat causes more water to vaporize from the clothing, creating more wet steam and restarting the cycle.

* isentropic process-ambient air is drawn into the compressor, where it is pressurized.

A two-way valve ( gray ) moves downward to allow pressurized air to pass through the regenerator where it is preheated.

This process is generally represented by the following reaction, where a pressurized dilute solution of carbonic acid in water releases gaseous carbon dioxide at decompression:

It is most commonly used in the discussion of pneumatic tires, ( i. e. pressurized tires ), where the term is strictly used to describe the portion of the tire ’ s tread that touches the road surface.

The gene gun technique is also popularly used in an edible vaccine production technique, where the nano-gold particles coated with plant genetic material under the high vacuum pressurized chamber are transformed into suitable plant tissues.

* Fluid bearings, where the axial thrust is supported on a thin layer of pressurized liquid — these give low drag.

In contrast to indirect methanol fuel cells, where methanol is reacted to hydrogen by steam reforming, DMFCs use a methanol solution ( usually around 1M, i. e. about 3 % in mass ) to carry the reactant into the cell ; common operating temperatures are in the range 50 – 120 ° C, where high temperatures are usually pressurized.
