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.

What is the difference between pressure part and nonpressure part?

Pressure parts are components of a system that are exposed to high pressure, such as boilers or pressure vessels, while nonpressure parts do not experience high pressure. Pressure parts are designed to withstand the stresses induced by high pressure, while nonpressure parts may not need to meet the same stringent requirements.


What is the difference between vasodilate and vasoconstrict?

Vasodilation is the widening of blood vessels, resulting in increased blood flow and decreased blood pressure. Vasoconstriction is the narrowing of blood vessels, leading to decreased blood flow and increased blood pressure. Both play important roles in regulating blood flow and maintaining homeostasis in the body.


What is the pressure that forces fluid from vessels into tissures?

The pressure that forces fluid from vessels into tissues is called hydrostatic pressure. This pressure is created by the heart pumping blood through the blood vessels, causing fluid to be pushed out of the vessels and into the surrounding tissues.


What is meant by shearing forces in pressure damage?

Shearing forces in pressure damage refer to the internal tissue damage caused by two surfaces moving in opposite directions, stretching and tearing tissue in between. Shearing forces can lead to deformation and disruption of blood vessels, resulting in reduced blood flow and tissue damage. It is a common mechanism of injury in pressure ulcers.


A collision could occur when the distance decrease and bearing between 2 vessels does what?

When the distance between two vessels decreases and their relative bearing remains constant, it indicates that the vessels are on a potential collision course. This situation requires immediate action to avoid a collision, such as altering course or speed. Monitoring the vessels closely and communicating with the other vessel can help prevent a collision.

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.

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.


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 difference between REACTORS and vessels?

Reactors are vessels specifically designed for carrying out chemical reactions, often with controlled conditions such as temperature and pressure. Vessels are generally containers that can hold a variety of substances, including reactors. Reactors are a type of vessel that is specialized for chemical processing.


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 Osmotic and Oncotic pressure?

Osmotic pressure is the pressure exerted by water moving across a semipermeable membrane due to differences in solute concentration. Oncotic pressure, also known as colloid osmotic pressure, is the osmotic pressure exerted by proteins in the blood plasma that helps to maintain fluid balance between the blood vessels and tissues.


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)
