Head pressure of water?
Head pressure is created by a column (depth) of water in a container. Pipe is considered a container. Diameter is not a factor. The higher the column of water, the more psi it creates. Multiply column height of water by .434 to get psi of water.
What is hydraulic height as it relates to a dam?
The pressure that water exerts on the walls of the dam is proportional to the depth of the water or you might say the height of the column of water from the base of the dam. The hydraulic height is the same as the depth of the water to the bottom of the dam.
Why are water towers elevated so high while petroleum tanks are on the ground?
Because water towers are a cheap, reliable way of generating enough pressure to get the water into your house--not an issue with petroleum tanks. If you didn't have towers you'd have to use pumps, and buying enough pumps to meet peak demand would be prohibitively expensive for most towns. Towers simplify matters. You pump water up at a steady rate and gravity does all the work getting it down. Since the pressure is a function of the height of the column of water inside the tower, and since the height of that column doesn't diminish appreciably until the tank is virtually empty, the pressure stays steady regardless of fluctuations in supply and/or demand.
What is a sentence using the word convert as a verb?
Heat is used to convert water to vapor.
What is the working principle of a hydraulic crane?
it is due to to the pressure and suction of water
How do you convert inch of water column to volume?
16.387 cc is equal to one cubic inch of water or anything else.
How do you convert mm of water column into meter cube?
That depends on how wide the column is.
What is the height of water column produces the same pressure as a 760mm high column of Mercury?
Atm
What will be the Water column Head in kg for 6 meter height and 8 meter dia tank?
Water column head is expressed either as the height of the column ... 6 meters here ... or else as the pressure at the bottom ... 58.842 kPa here. 'Kg' can't be a unit of water column head, and the diameter of the column is irrelevant.
Does height of water column depend upon pressure?
yes
What is the height of a column of water where the pressure at the bottom of the column is 20.0 lb inch squared?
It is approx 46.3 feet.
What is water pressur?
Are you asking hydrostatic (standing still) or if the water is under pressure such as the pressure at the base of a riser based on the height of the column of water?

How do you convert thermal energy into motion?
The most usual way to convert thermal energy (i.e., heat) into motion is by means of a steam engine. You boil water, the steam pushes on a piston, and the piston can then move whatever it is that you want to move.
Convert 4ft column of water 1ft deep to gallons?
It is 37.4 US gallons.
How much does pressure does a one half inch diameter column of water exert at its base?
The diameter of the water column does not affect the pressure.It is the height of the column that determines the pressure at the base.(and also the barometric pressure and temperature).
