There is a pressure difference in the building only if the system referred to is NOT a closed system. In a closed, pressurized pipe system the pressure is the same throughout. If open, assuming 3 stories x 10 feet/story, one would add the pressure equivalent to 30 feet of water head.

Why is to safety valve mounted on boiler drum?

the safety valve is mounted on the top of drum because, if the water level in boiler decreases a certain value, the temperature gets increased in water drum because of lack of water. So, increase in temperature result in high pressure in steam drum, as the safety valve is designed to withstand a certain pressure, after a cetain pressure, the safety valve is removed by high pressure of steam. this is why the safety valve is mounted on top of boiler drum. +++ Shall we sort out that lot? That answer is wrong. Its only link with water-level is that the valve has to be above the water anyway. If the boiler runs dry the safety-valve will not protect it. The safety-valve is there to prevent the steam pressure rising to a potentially a dangerous level. It is set to open at the boiler's designed working pressure.


What is low pressure and high pressure in water chiller unit?

In regards to a water chiller unit, the terms low pressure and high pressure refer to the compressor, which takes low pressure and compresses it into high pressure gas, which is then turned into a liquid to cool the unit.


Why hotwell level is maintained in condenser?

High hotwell level will get the cooling water tubes of condenser submerged in the condensate hence cooling efect will be reduced consequentaly vacuum will drop. Low hotwell level will lead to low suction pressure of Condensate Extraction Pump hence it may lead to cavitation.


What is the difference between elevated water tank and booster pump?

Both are a means of delivering water at an increased pressure. The difference between the two is how they are installed. The water pressure in an elevated water tank system increases as the height of the tank goes higher. As a simple example, get a length of transparent plasticÊhose and fill it with water. Hold both ends of the hose at level then slowly raise one end higher than the other. Water will flow towards the lower end. For a booster pump system, there is no need for elevation. The pump itself is capable of increasing the pressure by pushing water fasterÊusing a hydraulic valve system.


What is the maximum suction head for pumping water?

I think, that's refer from your system. If you manipulate the surface pressure of the water, you will get a big value of water suction head with higher surface pressure. CMIIW....

Why does the ground have to be level for above ground pools?

So that the water doesn't drain out of the pool and so the pool doesn't fall over. I agree with the answer above but I have a more detailed answer. In a round above ground pool the water puts even pressure on the pool walls, and if the ground is not level one side will get more pressure. The imbalance will cause the pool to collapse under the strain.


What is the water pressure needed for a 6 story building with 30 families?

For water to "climb" 10 meters from ground, there must be 1 ATM. So for 6 story building with aprox. 2.6 m per store, there must be 1.56 ATM water pressure at ground. The volume of water consumed depends on gauge of pipes and debit of pumps.


What is the top level of ground water called?

The top level of ground water is called the Water Table.


Well in which water rises because of pressure?

This type of well is called an Artesian Well. If the pressure is great enough to raise the water above the ground level, it is called a Flowing Artesian Well.


How do you build groundwater?

you cant, ground water is the level that water seeps thru the ground, to a level it stops at.


What is freezing water that condenses at ground level?

Rime frost is freezing water vapor that condenses at ground level.


Why does water flow naturally from an artesian well?

In some ground formations there is an impermeable layer which holds the water beneath it under pressure. In such a case where a well penetrates the impermeable layer, the water rises through the upper layers of the ground and even above ground-surface level


What has a higher vapor pressure water at sea level or the mountains?

water at sea level has higher vapor pressure


Is water that lies below sea ground level?

The sea is made of water therefore all water in it is below sea level. Ground level is the surface of the dry ground. Your question therfore makes no sense.


What is freezing water vapor that condenses at ground level?

Rime frost is freezing water vapor that condenses at ground level.


What is A well in which water rises because of pressure within an aquifer?

They are called Artesian Wells where underground water under positive pressure causes the water level in the well to rise to a point where hydrostatic equilibrium has been reached. If the water reaches ground level they are call flowing artesian wells; some my look like fountains.


How do checkdams help in increasing ground water level?

The check dames stop the moving water and thus the water go inside the ground and it increases water level.
