  • Hydraulics Manual Glossary G - 3
    Glossary G - 1 GLOSSARY OF HIGHWAY-RELATED DRAINAGE TERMS (Reprinted from the 1999 edition of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Model Drainage Manual) G.1 Introduction This Glossary is divided into three parts: · Introduction, · Glossary, and · References. It is not intended that all the terms in this Glossary be rigorously accurate or complete. Realistically, this is impossible. Depending on the circumstance, a particular term may have several meanings; this can never change. The primary purpose of this Glossary is to define the terms found in the Highway Drainage Guidelines and Model Drainage Manual in a manner that makes them easier to interpret and understand. A lesser purpose is to provide a compendium of terms that will be useful for both the novice as well as the more experienced hydraulics engineer. This Glossary may also help those who are unfamiliar with highway drainage design to become more understanding and appreciative of this complex science as well as facilitate communication between the highway hydraulics engineer and others. Where readily available, the source of a definition has been referenced. For clarity or format purposes, cited definitions may have some additional verbiage contained in double brackets [ ]. Conversely, three “dots” (...) are used to indicate where some parts of a cited definition were eliminated. Also, as might be expected, different sources were found to use different hyphenation and terminology practices for the same words. Insignificant changes in this regard were made to some cited references and elsewhere to gain uniformity for the terms contained in this Glossary: as an example, “groundwater” vice “ground-water” or “ground water,” and “cross section area” vice “cross-sectional area.” Cited definitions were taken primarily from two sources: W.B.

  • Frequently Asked Questions
    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Pressure Washer Chemicals/Cleaners Q: Can I use chemicals that do not state pressure washer safe? Can I use bleach in my pressure washer? A: It is recommended that only cleaning products that state "pressure washer safe" be used. Please ensure to follow all of the manufacturer's instructions. Using bleach or any other chemicals/cleaners that do not state "pressure washer safe" can cause premature wear and damage to seals and o-rings. Continuous Water Source Requirement for Pressure Washers Q: Does my pressure washer require a continuous water source? A: Pressure washers require a continuous pressurized water source. If there is not adequate water to the pump, the unit will not operate correctly and the pump may sustain damage. Please check your Operator's Manual for the specific requirements of gallons per minute and psi for your unit. Pressure Washer Siphon Troubleshooting Q: How do I get the pressure washer to siphon? A: For basic operating instructions related to your specific pressure washer, please refer to your product Owner's Manual. Possible causes for lack of siphoning include: • Chemical hose placed on improper port -- Check clear hose placement. • Pressure washer is not set to low pressure --The unit must be set to low pressure to apply soap. Please be sure that the correct soap nozzle is being used. • Extension is being used on the high pressure hose -- Remove extension on high pressure hose. • Chemical injection area is clogged or component needs to be replaced -- Test for blockage: Remove nozzle extension from gun, attach and turn on water source, then pull the trigger.

  • The Siphon and Understanding How Pressure Varies in a Pump System Jacques Chaurette April 2016
    The siphon and understanding how pressure varies in a pump system Jacques Chaurette April 2016 A siphon is a way of draining a tank at a high level from the top to another one at a lower level. The tank is not drained from the bottom but by a tube that exits the upper tank from the top and then turns downward to the lower tank. Or it could be from the side as long as one part of the tube goes above the liquid surface of the top tank. Surprisingly the liquid will move upward against gravity, a feat not possible in the world of solids. This is due to low pressure that keeps the liquid in the top part of the siphon from falling and the connection between fluid particles that pressure provides. Figure 1 Siphoning a liquid vs. moving a solid. Pressure in liquid systems is due to the weight of liquid above a surface. If we know the height and the density of the liquid we can calculate the pressure. Pressure is the same on any given horizontal plane and at any given point depends only on its vertical position with respect to some reference point. Pressure can also vary due to friction when the liquid is moving but in this case we can assume that the friction is very low since the liquid is moving slowly. Since the liquid is moving upwards it seems as if we are getting free energy, but we are not. While making the siphon we store positional or potential energy by lifting the fluid up in the top part of the siphon before it is set in motion.

  • The Height Limit of a Siphon
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The height limit of a siphon A. Boatwright1, S. Hughes2 & J. Barry2 The maximum height of a siphon is generally assumed to be dependent on barometric pressure— about 10 m at sea level. This limit arises because the pressure in a siphon above the upper reservoir Received: 03 March 2015 level is below the ambient pressure, and when the height of a siphon approaches 10 m, the pressure at the crown of the siphon falls below the vapour pressure of water causing water to Accepted: 14 October 2015 boil breaking the column. After breaking, the columns on either side are supported by differential Published: 02 December 2015 pressure between ambient and the low-pressure region at the top of the siphon. Here we report an experiment of a siphon operating at sea level at a height of 15 m, well above 10 m. Prior degassing of the water prevented cavitation. This experiment provides conclusive evidence that siphons operate through gravity and molecular cohesion. Although the siphon has been used since ancient times, the means of operation has been a matter of controversy1–6. Two competing models have been put forward, one in which siphons are considered to operate through gravity and atmospheric pressure and another in which gravity and liquid cohesion are invoked. Key evidence for the atmospheric model is that the maximum height of a siphon is approxi- mately equal to the height of a column of liquid that can be supported by the ambient barometric pres- sure. In this model, a siphon is considered to be two back-to-back barometers.

Precise observations of the „start-up process“ and the surge phenomena which occur at the end of the siphon action can be made. A ventilation valve fitted at the top of the siphon al- lows a precise comparison to be made between the siphon action and the normal overflow weir. In addition, quantitative measurements of the flow rate capacity of the siphon and its overflow coeffi- cient can be determined.

  • Siphon 100® Fill Plant Bulk Storage System – 100% of the Product 100% of the Time
    SIPHON 100® FILL PLANT BULK STORAGE SYSTEM – 100% OF THE PRODUCT 100% OF THE TIME Chart has engineered the Siphon 100® Bulk Storage Tank to provide an economical, reliable and high-performance storage system for pump filling high-pressure cylinders, liquid cylinders and transports. Current cryogenic tanks have worked for years, but increased efficiencies are now available with the Siphon 100 system allowing you to utilize 100% of the liquid contents. The Siphon 100 system combines two revolutionary technologies in cryogenic bulk tanks. Its improved “thermal-siphoning” system reduces and efficiently reprocesses the heat from pumping. Additionally, this system’s Composite Super Insulation™ is 30% to 70% more efficient than Perlite in reducing the effects of heat transfer from the atmosphere. PRODUCT ADVANTAGES • Thermal-siphon design manages heat from pump cool down, keeping storage tank pressure down • Simple and reliable automatic pump start-up in three minutes • Pump priming at tank pressure of 10 psi (0.69 bar) or less without the necessity for pressure building* • Vacuum insulated pod provides colder liquid to pump reducing cavitation • Extended legs add head pressure to pump without increasing liquid inventory for improved pump performance • Reduce liquid cylinder & Orca™ MicroBulk Delivery System filling losses • Longer life of high-wear pump parts • Capability to operate two pumps at once (liquid and HP pump) • Adapters available to match all standard pumps • Inner vessel designed and built to ASME Section VIII Division 1 code * Pump filling only. Add pressure builder if liquid filling large quantities from Siphon 100 tank.
