4fluid level — the radiographic finding of a straight edge between fluid and gas within a hollow organ or cavity when a horizontal X ray beam strikes the fluid surface tangentially. Multiple long fluid levels are seen in loops of small bowel that are obstructed …
5fluid drive — /ˈfluəd draɪv/ (say floohuhd druyv) noun a device for transmitting torque from one shaft to another, especially for providing a smooth coupling between the engine of a motor vehicle and the transmission; consists of two vaned rotors in a sealed… …
6fluid drive — Auto. a power coupling for permitting a smooth start in any gear, consisting of two vaned rotors in a sealed casing filled with oil, such that one rotor, driven by the engine, moves the oil to drive the other rotor, which in turn drives the… …
7fluid-bed catalyst — Any catalyst used in a fluidized bed. When gas is allowed to flow upward through container filled with fine powder at a sufficient velocity, the gas solid mix exhibits the properties of a boiling liquid. Catalysis under these conditions can be… …
8Static spherically symmetric perfect fluid — In metric theories of gravitation, particularly general relativity, a static spherically symmetric perfect fluid solution (a term which is often abbreviated as ssspf) is a spacetime equipped with suitable tensor fields which models a static round …
