pressure process
1pressure groups — Pressure groups are organizations whose members act collectively to affect public policy in order to promote a common interest. They are usually distinguishable from political parties in that they do not wish to govern. They may be divided… …
2Pressure swing adsorption — (PSA) is a technology used to separate some gas species from a mixture of gases under pressure according to the species molecular characteristics and affinity for an adsorbent material. It operates at near ambient temperatures and so differs from …
3Pressure cooking — is a method of cooking in a sealed vessel that does not permit air or liquids to escape below a preset pressure. Because the boiling point of water increases as the pressure increases, the pressure built up inside the cooker allows the liquid in… …
4Process Manufacturing — is the branch of manufacturing that is associated with formulas or manufacturing recipes as compared to bills of material routing as in the case of Discrete manufacturing. Defining Process Manufacturing The simplest and easiest way to grasp the… …
5Pressure solution — or pressure dissolution in structural geology and diagenesis is a deformation mechanism that involves the dissolution of minerals at grain to grain contacts into an aqueous pore fluid in areas of relatively high stress and either deposition in… …
6Pressure cooker — 1. (Cookery) a pot with a lid which may be tightly bound to the bottom part, forming a vessel which can withstand some gas pressure from within. It is used to heat foods in water or steam to a temperature somewhat above the boiling point of water …
7Pressure exchanger — A pressure exchanger transfers pressure energy from a high pressure fluid stream to a low pressure fluid stream. Many industrial processes operate at elevated pressures and have high pressure waste streams. One way of providing a high pressure… …
8Pressure volume diagram — Thermodynamics …
9Pressure washer — A pressure washer is a mechanical device that uses high pressure water to remove mold, grime, dust, mud and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete road surfaces. Equipment can be rented or bought that produces… …
10Pressure measurement — The construction of a bourdon tube gauge, construction elements are made of brass Many techniques have been developed for the measurement of pressure and vacuum. Instruments used to measure pressure are called pressure gauges or vacuum gauges. A… …
