Which Mechanical Gauges are used to measured Fluid Pressure?

Sun, 06 Jul 2008 04:24:46 -0400

A Mecahnical gauge is best to measure High Fluid Pressure,where Tube Gauge cannot be conveniently used.The principle on which all Gauges work is
almost same.Following three types of Gauges are more important from subject point of view.

What are the Practical Applications of Hydrostatics.

Sun, 06 Jul 2008 04:21:29 -0400

The Hydrostatics Pressure is either utilised in the working of a Hydraulic Structure,or a Structure is checked to withstand the Hydrostatic Pressure exerted
on it.That's why study of Hydrostatics is more important .In this post I will cover practical applications of Hydrostatics on the following Structures.

Some Important Terms about Equilibrium of Floating Body.

Sat, 05 Jul 2008 05:21:59 -0400

We normally see,whenever a body is placed over a Liquid,either it sinks or floats on the Liquid.

The body placed over the Liquid is subjected to the following two forces.
01)Gravitational force.
02)Upthrust of the Liquid.

How you can measure Fluid Pressure?

Sat, 05 Jul 2008 05:20:08 -0400

The Principle of all the Pressure Measuring Devices are almost same,but for our convenient sake,we may devide it into following two types.

01)TUBE GAUGE

02)MECHANICAL GAUGE

In this post I will cover details about Tube Gauges.

3 Important Pressures of the Fluid.

The Intensity of Pressure at any point in a Fluid is the same in all direction,when it is at rest.

01)Atmospheric Pressure:-
It is established that the Air possesses some Weight and due to its Weight,Air must exert some Pressure on the Surface of the Earth.The Density of Air is

In every industry compressed air is mostly used to finish various operations.Air compressor plays a vital role in every manufacturing plant.Your production
process is depend on compressed air,so it is very important to obtain best performance from Air Compressor installed in your plant.Air Compressor gives

The important fault indication device used in Air Compressor.

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 22:26:50 -0400

When your Air Compressor works smoothly every thing is so fine you even don't think about the problems which may occure in running condition.It is not
also possible to keep one operator near to air compressor for 24x7x365 days.In this condition it is very important to know the fault due to which compressor

Details of Electro-Pneumatic control used in Reciprocating Air Compressor.

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 04:20:38 -0400

As you know,Air compressor is used to increase the air pressur by reducing its volume.Every compressor has to discharge some specific pressure so we can use this utility to operate pneumatic tools etc.To control discharge air pressure of Air Compressor,some controlling devices as like M-type unloader,W-type unloader tec.are used in old days.The accuracy of such devices are not perfect,to overcome this problem" Electro-Pneumatic control" is introduced.
