....a decrease of barometric pressure by 1

hPa may cause a ~1 cm rise in sea level....

(1 hPa=1 mb) or (1 hectoPascal=1 millibar)

What is pressure compounding?

Pressure compounding is a method used in steam turbines to improve efficiency by dividing the pressure drop across multiple stages. This involves passing steam through a series of turbine stages, with each stage operating at a different pressure level. By reducing the pressure drop across each stage, pressure compounding helps to extract more energy from the steam and increase the overall turbine efficiency.


If an evaporator has a pressure drop of10psig and the low side pressure is 15psig what is the pressure at the inlet of the evaporator?

To find the pressure at the inlet of the evaporator, you subtract the pressure drop from the low side pressure. Given a low side pressure of 15 psig and a pressure drop of 10 psig, the inlet pressure would be 15 psig - 10 psig = 5 psig. Therefore, the pressure at the inlet of the evaporator is 5 psig.


How orifice meter can measure a preasre?

Orifice meter measures pressure by forcing fluid through a restriction (orifice plate) in the pipeline, causing a pressure drop. This pressure drop is proportional to the flow rate, which can be used to determine the pressure of the fluid. By measuring this pressure drop, the orifice meter can indirectly measure the pressure of the fluid in the pipeline.


Does a hurricane or a tornado have the lowest pressure?

Some of the lowest atmospheric pressures ever recorded at ground level or sea level were recorded in tornadoes and hurricanes. The lowest sea level pressure recorded at any United States-certified observing station was 892 millibars (26.34"), recorded at Matecumbe Key, Florida on September 2, 1935 in the "Labor Day Hurricane". The world record goes to Typhoon Tip when, on August of 1979, it recorded a central pressure of 870 millibars (25.69").It is not known how low pressure in a tornado can get because very few measurements have been actually taken from inside a tornado.The lowest pressure recorded in a tornado was approximately 688 millibars in Tulia, Texas on April 21, 2007.However, this was not a sea level measurement and would likely have been higher if the tornado had occurred at sea level.


What kind of weather would be cause by a drop in air pressure?

A drop in air pressure typically leads to unsettled weather conditions, such as rain, strong winds, and potentially storms. This decrease in pressure can indicate the approach of a low-pressure system, which often brings precipitation and atmospheric instability.

The mercury rises. The lower atmospheric pressure allows the mercury to drop in level.

Yes, low oil level can cause low pressure.


Why does the water level in the toilet bowl drop when it's windy?

When it's windy, the air pressure outside the toilet bowl can be lower than inside, causing the water level to drop as the air pushes down on the water in the bowl.


What Difference between the dry and wet column pressure drop at fixed flow conditions?

The dry column pressure drop refers to the pressure drop across the column when no liquid is present, while the wet column pressure drop refers to the pressure drop when the column is flooded with liquid. The wet column pressure drop is typically higher than the dry column pressure drop at fixed flow conditions because the presence of the liquid adds additional resistance to flow, increasing pressure drop.

Why does the oil pressure light blink when you press hard on the brakes?

Low oil level? Oil may "slosh" forward on hard stop causing a temporary drop in oil pressure


Why does the well water pressure drop and then come back?

The well water pressure drops when water is being used faster than it can be replenished. Once the water level in the well has a chance to recover, the pressure will come back.
