A Bourdon tube is often found in a?

A bourdon tube is a type of curved tube where the inside radius is smaller than the outside radius. As Force = Pressure x Area this means that when a pressure is applied internally to the tube the greater surface area on the outside causes the tube to straighten out. This is connected via a mechanical linkage to dial on the front of the gauge. Your typical industrial pressure gauge is the Bourdon Tube tyep.


How does the fire tube boiler operate?

In a fire tube boiler, the water surrounds a set of tubes through which the fire and the products of combustion travel (as opposed to a water tube boiler, in which the water travels through the tubes, and the fire surrounds the tubes).The HVAC Veteran


What is bourdon tube pressure gauge?

An elastic transducer, that is bourdon tube which is fixed and open at one end to receive the pressure which is to be measured. The other end of the bourdon tube is free and closed. The cross-section of the bourdon tube is eliptical. The bourdon tube is in a bent form to look like a circular arc. To the free end of the bourdon tube is attached an adjustable link, which is inturn connected to a sector and pinion as shown in diagram. To the shaft of the pinion is connected a pointer which sweeps over a pressure calibrated scale.
