  • Chapter 19 Introduction To Continuous pressure measurement-Manometers

    In many ways, pressure is the primary variable for a wide range of process measurements. Many types of industrial measurements are actually inferred from pressure, such as: Flow (measuring the pressure dropped across a restriction) Liquid level (measuring the pressure created by a vertical liquid column) Liquid density (measuring the pressure difference across a fixed-height…

  • 2.11 Fluid mechanics in Physics Explained

    A fluid is any substance having the ability to flow: to freely change shape and move under the influence of a motivating force. Fluid motion may be analyzed on a microscopic level, treating each fluid molecule as an individual projectile body. This approach is extraordinarily tedious on a practical level, but still useful as a model of fluid…
