Aneroid barometers have a mechanical adjustment for altitude that allows the equivalent sea level pressure to be read directly and without further adjustment if the instrument is not moved to a different altitude.

Aneroid gauges are based on a metallic pressure sensing element that flexes elastically under the effect of a pressure difference across the element.

Aneroid gauges are not dependent on the type of gas being measured, unlike thermal and ionization gauges, and are less likely to contaminate the system than hydrostatic gauges.

Aneroid barometers sold for domestic use typically have no compensation.

*: D. C. W. T. Sharp: " Aneroid barometer "

His experiences in South America having convinced him of certain serious errors in the readings of aneroid barometers at high altitudes, he published a work entitled How to Use the Aneroid Barometer and succeeded in introducing important improvements in their construction.

** Aneroid sphygmomanometers ( mechanical types with a dial ) are in common use ; they require regular calibration checks, unlike mercury manometers.

Aneroid sphygmomanometers are considered safer than mercury based, although less accurate.

Recent popes have appointed a few priests, most of them influential theologians, to the College of Cardinals without requiring them to be ordained as bishops ; invariably, these men are over the age of 80, which means they are not permitted to take part in a conclave.

Bootstrapping in business means starting a business without external help or capital.

Separating VLANs divides broadcast domains as well, but provides no means to network these without layer 3 functionality.

Binary compatibility means that programs can work correctly with the new version of this library without requiring recompilation.

The conservative nature of these changes underlines the fact that Protestantism was by no means universally popular – a fact that the queen herself recognized: her revived Act of Supremacy, giving her the ambiguous title of Supreme Governor passed without difficulty, but the Act of Uniformity 1559 giving statutory force to the Prayer Book, passed through the House of Lords by only three votes.

* Buildering: Climbing urban structures-usually without equipment-avoiding normal means of ascent, like stairs, escalators, and elevators.

On-sight climbing means to attempt a rock climbing route for the first time without inspection or any form of " beta " ( such as route description, watching others climb it, etc.

Healing on this basis is accomplished without material means and is the traditional bedrock of the church.

A column that carries the load down to a foundation must have means to transfer the load without overstressing the foundation material.

This can be done, for example, by visual means ( e. g., a spinning slotted disk, which functions as a simple stroboscope ) without interfering with the measurement itself.

The term baekjeong literally means " a butcher ", but later changed into " common citizens " to change the class system so that the system would be without untouchables.

" It has also been implied, especially in the ' alternate future ' story Kingdom Come, that the Clark Kent persona is symbolic of the values taught to him by his wholesome Midwestern parents, the values he holds most dear: his instinctive knowledge of right and wrong that allows him to adopt his Superman persona, without being consumed by the moral implications of his actions ; Superman is the means through which he can bring this example to the world.

The objectives of the Centre shall be to develop, and operate on a regular basis, global models and data-assimilation systems for the dynamics, thermodynamics and composition of the Earth's fluid envelope and interacting parts of the Earth-system, with a view to preparing forecasts by means of numerical methods, providing initial conditions for the forecasts, and contributing to monitoring the relevant parts of the Earth-system.

Maintenance of dilute urine by means of vigorous fluid therapy is beneficial in all forms of nephrolithiasis, so increasing urine volume is a key principle for the prevention of kidney stones.

A nonketotic crisis means: ( 1 ) very high levels of glucose ( sugar ) in the blood ; ( 2 ) absence of ketoacidosis ; ( 3 ) great loss of body fluid ; and ( 4 ) a sleepy, confused, or comatose state.

In fluid dynamics, a potential flow is described by means of a velocity potential φ, being a function of space and time.

Ultrasonography and Doppler sonography provide useful means to detect appendicitis, especially in children, and shows free fluid collection in the right iliac fossa, along with a visible appendix without blood flow in color Doppler.

The condition that the congruence corresponding to the fluid particles should be hypersurface orthogonal is by no means assured.

The fluid can be heated by any means ... gas, wood, fuel oil, etc., but in built-up areas where piped gas is available, natural gas is currently the most economical and therefore the usual choice.

The fluid is in an enclosed system and circulated throughout by means of a pump.

The name is probably derived from veig which means " liquid " or " fluid " ( referring to the lakes and the marshes of the island ).

Once a medicine has been injected into the fluid stream of the IV tubing there must be some means of ensuring that it gets from the tubing to the patient.

In this case the fluid is forced to flow by use of a pump, fan or other mechanical means.

( In physics, the term fluid means any substance that deforms under shear stress ; it includes liquids, gases, plasmas, and some plastic solids.

Forced convection is a term used when the streams and currents in the fluid are induced by external means — such as fans, stirrers, and pumps — creating an artificially induced convection current.

Alternatively, heat may be supplied at ambient temperature and the heat sink maintained at a lower temperature by such means as cryogenic fluid ( see Liquid nitrogen economy ) or iced water.

However, lower fluid viscosity also typically means fluid leaks faster from the bearing surfaces, thus requiring increased power for pumps or friction from seals.

This means that the instrument is calibrated for one specific fluid, usually water.

It transfers fluid by means of the progress, through the pump, of a sequence of small, fixed shape, discrete cavities, as its rotor is turned.

This means that the resultant upward force on the cube is equal to the weight of the fluid that would fit into the volume of the cube, and the downward force on the cube is its weight, in the absence of external forces.

This means that both the buoyant object and a parcel of fluid ( equal in volume to the object ) will experience the same magnitude of buoyancy force because of Newton's third law, and will experience the same acceleration, but in opposite directions, since the total volume of the system is unchanged.

Derivations of both of these equations originates from constructing a system of equations by means of Newton's second law for both the solid object and the displaced parcel of fluid.

" Closed cycle " means the working fluid is permanently contained within the thermodynamic system.

In keratoconic patients, rigid contact lenses improve vision by means of tear fluid filling the gap between the irregular corneal surface and the smooth regular inner surface of the lens, thereby creating the effect of a smoother cornea.
