Elevators hydraulic

Advection The movement of ground water in the saturated zone in response to differences in groundwater elevation, hydraulic head or pressure differences. [Pg.229]

Reboilers need to be located next to the tower they serve, except for the pump-through types, which can be located elsewhere. Fired heater reboilers are always located away from the associated tower and use a pump to circulate the bottoms. Ketde-type reboders are preferred from an operational and hydraulic standpoint because they can be designed without the worry of having to ensure sufficient head for circulation required by thermosyphon reboders. However, ketde reboders require a larger-diameter shed that is more cosdy, and the reboder must be supported at a sufficient elevation to get the product to the bottoms pump with adequate NPSH. [Pg.78]

Hydraulic limes (84) may be used for mortar, stucco, or the scratch coat for plaster. They harden slowly under water, whereas high calcium limes, after slaking with water, harden in air to form the carbonate but not under water at ordinary temperatures. However, at elevated temperatures achieved with steam curing, lime—silica sand mixtures do react to produce durable products such as sand—lime bricks. [Pg.296]

According to the Standards of the Hydraulic Institute, a suction lift test is performed on the pump and the pressure in the suction vessel is lowered to the point where the pump suffers a 3% loss in total head. This point is called the NPSHr of the pump. Some pump manufacturers perform a similar test by closing a suction valve on a test pump and other manufacturers lower the suction elevation. [Pg.13]

Invention of a hydraulic elevator with jtigger mechanism. [Pg.1246]

Another group of 14 men was exposed primarily by dermal contact to a triaryl phosphate hydraulic fluid during installation and operation of hydraulic aircraft elevators on a U.S. Navy ship (Baldridge et al. [Pg.156]

Weschler et al. (1990) reported that the concentration of individual paraffins present in the air of a building was 0.0088-0.262 mg/m3 and was associated with operating a hydraulic elevator. Mineral oil hydraulic fluids, therefore, may be released to the air during use in hydraulic elevators (and probably other hydraulic equipment) and can come from volatilization or as mists or aerosols from fluid reservoirs and mechanisms such as actuation pistons. It is not likely that significant concentrations in air will occur from such sources. [Pg.293]

The main purpose of recharging water into an aquifer is to elevate the hydraulic gradient to promote the movement of groundwater towards the collection system, thus enhance the efficiency of pumping. [Pg.621]

The cause of flow between these points is the difference in elevation head between them, that is, (Z, - Z2), denoted as dh, which is contributed by the gravitational potential. If is the distance between the two points on the water table, then the djd ratio is known as the hydraulic gradient. [Pg.701]

Porosimeters fall into two groups depending on the pressure used for the measurements. Low-pressure, or subambient, units operate from 0.5 psi to ambient pressure to measure large pores. High-pressure porosimeters operate from ambient pressure to as high as 60,000 psi [43] to measure much smaller pores. These elevated pressures are achieved in a number of ways, such as pressurizing in a hydraulic pump oil medium. [Pg.267]

The water table in the ARS is elevated compared with the aquifer hydraulic heads. This would promote the transport of As from the ARS into the aquifer by advection. Given the higher concentration of As in the ARS compared to the aquifer, As transport could also occur by diffusion through the clayey soil. [Pg.372]

Where H is the fall height (m), i.e., the difference upstream and downstream from the fall. in elevation of the hydraulic energy line... [Pg.90]

Darcy s equation can be used to describe flow in this region however, the value of permeability varies as a function of saturation. Also, the value of moisture potential is a function of saturation. The total potential for flow (hydraulic gradient in Darcy s equation) can be defined as the difference between the moisture potential (minus) and the elevation potential (plus). When the potential for flow is positive, flow can occur. [Pg.149]

The last two applications, while convenient and initially appealing, require more maintenance and inspection than a simple, ground level monitor. Significant reactive forces can be generated and, therefore, the support structures must be properly engineered. Elevated monitors also require support and hydraulics to be protected by a water spray system if exposed to fires. An elevated monitor is shown in Eigure 7-12. [Pg.175]

Overland Runoff The fraction of rainfall or irrigation water that flows over a land surface from higher to lower elevations, known as overland runoff, is an additional pathway for contaminant transport. Runoff occurs when the amount of rain or irrigation water is greater than the soil infiltration capacity. The formation of a crust on the soil surface is a major contributor to runoff formation in arid and semiarid zones, because it decreases the infiltration capacity. The soil crust is a thin layer (0-3 mm) with a high density, fine porosity, and low hydraulic conductivity compared to the underlying soil. This skin forms as a result of falling raindrops or sodification of soil clays. [Pg.242]

Bucket elevator or — hydraulic lift to raise catalyst to top of reactor... [Pg.429]

The technology is best suited for coarse-textured soils that have a moderate to high hydraulic conductivity. The steam extraction system is not applicable for soil contaminated with metals or other inorganic wastes. The system is also not applicable for organics in which the mobility is not increased with elevated temperatures. [Pg.898]

Elevated concentrations of the n-Cl3 to -CIH alkanes and branched-chain and cyclic analogs were measured in a building having a history of air quality complaints the source was found to be volatilization from hydraulic fluids used in the building elevators (Weschler et al., 1990). [Pg.858]

Pneumatic systems use the wave motion to pressurize air in an oscillating water column (OWC). The pressurized air is then passed through an air turbine to generate electricity. In hydraulic systems, wave motion is used to pressurize water or other fluids, which are subsequently passed through a turbine or motor that drives a generator. Hydropower systems concentrate wave peaks and store the water delivered in the waves in an elevated basin. The potential energy supplied runs a low head hydro plant with seawater. [Pg.111]
