1Pressure controlled intermittent mandatory ventilation — (PC IMV) is any mode of mechanical ventilation with preset inspiratory pressure (Pressure Control) and inspiratory time (Ti). Spontaneous breaths (i.e., inspiration is patient triggered and patient cycled) can exist between mandatory breaths… …
2Pressure head — is a term used in fluid mechanics to represent the internal energy of a fluid due to the pressure exerted on its container. It may also be called static pressure head or simply static head (but not static head pressure). It is mathematically… …
3pressure gradient — n. the rate of decrease in barometric pressure in a given region at a particular time …
4Pressure 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… …
5pressure gradient — noun : the space rate of variation of pressure in a given direction; specifically : such rate of variation in a direction normal to an isobar * * * Meteorol. the change in atmospheric pressure per unit of horizontal distance in the direction in… …

7Pressure sensor — Digital air pressure sensor Compact digital barometric pressure sensor A pressure sensor measure …
8Pressure 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… …
9Pressure regulator — A pressure regulator is a valve that automatically cuts off the flow of a liquid or gas at a certain pressure. Regulators are used to allow high pressure fluid supply lines or tanks to be reduced to safe and/or usable pressures for various… …
10Pressure gradient — In atmospheric sciences (meteorology, climatology and related fields), the pressure gradient (typically of air, more generally of any fluid) is a physical quantity that describes in which direction and at what rate the pressure changes the most… …
