Pneumatic pressure testing of pressure vessels is done to check the leakage for any leakage where as hydraulic pressure testing is done to check the vessel for its strength.

Why there is oncotic pressure difference between atrtereoles and venules?

Oncotic pressure is the pressure exerted by colloid particles. As colloid particles do NOT leave the blood vessels oncotic pressure is SAME in arteriole and venules.


What is mean metal temperature?

It is one of the conditions for pressure vessels engineering calculations according to the ASME Boilers and Pressure Vessels Code. It is calculated by getting the difference between two streams. There are other definitions for mean metal temperature, but this is the simplest.

Force blood puts on vessels?

This is called blood pressure. It is measured using a sphygmomanometer and is expressed in a fraction format. For example, a normal BP is considered to be 120/80. The top number is the systolic pressure, which is the pressure exerted on the blood vessels during a heart beat. The lower number, diastolic pressure, is the pressure when the heart is at rest. The difference between these numbers (40) is the pulse pressure. This is the pressure your heart is actually creating, or how hard it is working.


What is the difference between systemic vessels and pulmonary vessels?

They start off the same, but by the time you're born they have begun to diverge. The systemic vessels are (self) forced to operate under a higher pressure than the pulmonary system and so develops arterioles plus thicker arterial walls.


What is the difference between a pressure vessel and a column?

Columns should be installed in vertical direction only on the other hand pressure vessels can be installed in both vertical and horizontal direction and having certain height limitations for vertical installation.


What is the difference from systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure?

Systolic (the higher number) is a reading of the pressure in your blood vessels when your heart is beating at its maximum strength. Diastolic (the lower number) tells you what the pressure is in your blood vessels when your heart is at rest.


What is the lowest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels?

No, systolic pressure is the highest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels.


What is the difference between U stamp and R stamp?

U and R stamps are ASME codes certification Stamps, qualifying organisations for the manufacture(ie fabrication) and repair and/or alteration of pressure vessels-in line with ASME boiler and pressure vessel codes(check ASME IX, ASMEViii Div 1). The U stamp is for fabrication of pressure vessels and the R stamp is for repair and/or alteration of pressure vessels. These are stamped on the finished work signifying complete compliance with the code requirements. (Contribution from Michael Obinna Okoye odu-Nigeria)


What is blood pressure used to evaluate?

Your systole and diastole (or systolic and diastolic pressure). Systolic pressure is the pressure your blood exerts on blood vessels when your heart pumps out blood while diastolic pressure is the pressure your blood exerts on blood vessels when your heart is at rest(in between pumps). Blood pressure is stated as systolic pressure/diastolic pressure. The normal BP is 120/80 mmHg.


What is differenc between the blood pressure and heartbeat?

The heart beat is the beating of the heart. Blood pressure is the amount of pressure the heart beat causes the blood to push against the blood vessels.


What are the main purpose of pressure vessels?

The main purpose of a pressure vessel is to hold gases or liquids at a pressure inside a container different to the pressure outside of the pressure vessel. Usually pressure vessels are made from steel.
