What is mechanical seal barrier fluid?
Mechanical Seal barrier fluid is the media used for the flushing of mechanical seal faces. The heat generated (because of physical contact and friction) between a pair of mechanical seal (Normally one face rotary whereas the the is stationary) faces is being carried away by the barrier fluid which is being recirculated after proper cooling. The barrier fluid also create a barrier between the process fluid and flushing fluid. It is being kept at a higher pressure than process fluid in order to always ensure that only barrier fluid film remain across the seal faces all the time. The barrier fluid is being kept in a container with connected piping from mechanical seal inlet and outlet. There is normally a cooling device (Air cooler or conventional water cooler) in between for cooling the seal outlet barrier fluid. Liquids being used as a barrier fluid in cases of liquid sealing. Where as gases being used a barrier in case of gas sealing. The barrier fluids are being recommended considering the various check points being given as a guide line in API 682 3rd edition. ( See the details in the subject API plan 53 & 74 barrier fluid selection). Thanks.
What separates the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments?
The barrier that separates the interstitial fluid from the intracellular fluid is the plasma membrane. The interstitial fluid is a major component of the extracellular fluid.

What does sedimentation?
Sedimentation is the process where particles in suspension can settle out of the fluid where they have been transported, and begin to rest on a barrier.
What protects the CNS from harmful substances and pathogens by preventing passage of these substances from blood into the interstitial fluid of brain tissue?
You're referring to the blood-brain barrier.
What causes fluid to collect around the brain after brain surgery?
The most common cause of fluid buildup after brain surgery is from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This occurs when when there is a breakdown in the barrier that separates the brain and the paranasal sinuses.
What is the medical term meaning fluid found within the joint?

Why is dialect a barrier to communication?
Dialect can be a barrier to communication because it involves variations in language, pronunciation, and vocabulary that may differ from standard forms of a language. This can lead to misunderstandings, misinterpretations, and difficulties in conveying ideas clearly between speakers of different dialects.
What is the meaning of head in fluid mechanics?
Head is the height of the fluid above the point you are measuring.
