Hello all,
I'm trying to calculate the pressures exerted back on a piston by a working hydraulic fluid in a damper system. I've attached a drawing of the system and the equations I'm using. Essentially the piston motion is restricted by flow through an orifice. I have data for the flow rates...
Net Inlet Pressure Required (NIPR) is an individual pump characteristic, determined by test, of what pressure energy is needed to fill the pump inlet.
How to generate the curve of NIPR or how to know NIPR of the pump if I am a pump manufacturer??

An automobile tire is pumped up to a gauge pressure of ##2.0 \times 10^5 ## Pa when the temperature is 27◦ C. What is its gauge pressure after the car has been running on a hot day so that the tire temperature is 77◦ C? Assume that the volume remains fixed and take...
Hello everyone,
I am pondering on the airflow around a wing:
When air flows over a wing, part of the air goes below the wing and part over the wing. Even when the air is moving, the pressure at a point in space is always isotropic. The pressure on top of the wing is slightly lower than than...
Good day everyone. I have a few question that I would like to confirm. Currently I am doing a project that rinses a plastic pallet.

I am trying to understand how to setup/solve for the pressure drop across an orifice L=3.5in

Hi.
If I fill a glass with water up to the top and close it with a coaster, I can turn it upside down without the coaster falling off and spilling everything. Usually, this is explained with the atmospheric air pressure being bigger than the pressure of the water inside the glass (hence, it...
So the pressure for a canonical ensemble is:
P = kbT dZ/dV
P = pressure
P = -∑pi dEi/dV
Z = ∑e-βEi
pi is the probability of being in microstate i
Ei is the energy of state i
β = 1/kbT
<E> = U = average energy
U = -1/Z dZ/dβ = -d(Ln(Z))/dβ
How can the pressure (given above) be derived in...
I still struggle with the interchangeability of pressure and temperature and how they affect the performance of various bits of turbomachinery. Microscopically they're very interconnected, in that the measure of pressure is the result of the confinement of the measure of temperature, however...

Hi There,
I have constantly come across the fact that as fluid (hydraulic oil say) travels along a pipe you will see a continual drop in pressure the further you travel down the pipe. Am I right in saying that the pressure at any point is simply the result of the resistances (friction with pipe...
Question #1 - A lobster tank in a restaurant is 1 m long by 0.75 m wide by 60 cm deep. Taking the density of water to be 1000 kg/m$^3$, find the water forces

(b) on each of the smaller sides of the tank.
