  4. Variable-buoyancy pressure vessel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-buoyancy_pressure...

    A variable-buoyancy pressure vessel system is a type of rigid buoyancy control device for diving systems that retains a constant volume and varies its density by changing the weight (mass) of the contents, either by moving the ambient fluid into and out of a rigid pressure vessel, or by moving a stored liquid between internal and external variable-volume containers.

  5. Buoyancy compensator (diving) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyancy_compensator_(diving)

    The buoyancy compensator is used by ambient pressure divers using underwater breathing apparatus to adjust buoyancy underwater or at the surface within the range of slightly negative to slightly positive, to allow neutral buoyancy to be maintained throughout the depth range of the planned dive, and to compensate for changes in weight due to breathing gas consumption during the dive.

    The O'Shaughnessy Dam is located on the Scioto River near Dublin, Ohio, United States. The dam forms O'Shaughnessy Reservoir, which is a major source of drinking water for the city of Columbus . It was completed in 1925 following recommendations of then superintendent Jerry O'Shaughnessy (for whom the dam was named).

    Between 1891 and 1972, the lake was filled using water from the Olentangy River. The water source was subsequently provided by the city of Columbus municipal water supply, at a new location on campus near the location of the original lake. [4] In 2014, a well was dug to feed the lake from groundwater, eliminating the need to use municipal water ...

    The GE Mark III Containment-system is a single barrier pressure containment and multi-barrier fission containment system, consisting of the containment vessel plus associated dry- and wetwell (pressure and fission barriers), the external shield building of it, the auxiliary building and the fuel building, all of which are normally kept at ...

  9. Dresden Generating Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dresden_Generating_Station

    Water level in the reactor rose rapidly until water entered the main steam lines. At this point, the false high pressure signal disappeared. The turbine dump valves closed, increasing back pressure in the reactor vessel and slowing the feedwater inlet flow. Cooling reactor water temperature caused further void collapse.
