  2. Chest tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chest_tube

    The second chamber functions as a "water seal", which acts as a one way valve allowing gas to escape, but not reenter the chest. Air bubbling through the water seal chamber is usual when the patient coughs or exhales but may indicate, if continual, a pleural or system leak that should be evaluated critically.

  3. Chest drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chest_drainage

    In a two-chamber system air and fluid are directed to a first collection canister. Gravity keeps the fluid in the first canister, whereas air is directed into a second canister. The air can either actively or passively be released via a water seal. Two-chamber systems are mainly used for patients with huge air leaks.

  4. Trap (plumbing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trap_(plumbing)

    Maintaining the water seal is critical to trap operation; traps might dry out, and poor venting can suction or blow water out of the traps. This is usually avoided by venting the drain pipes downstream of the trap; by being vented to the atmosphere outside the building, the drain lines never operate at a pressure much higher or lower than ...

  5. Cavitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavitation

    When water flows over a dam spillway, the irregularities on the spillway surface will cause small areas of flow separation in a high-speed flow, and, in these regions, the pressure will be lowered. If the flow velocities are high enough the pressure may fall to below the local vapor pressure of the water and vapor bubbles will form.

  6. AutoAnalyzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AutoAnalyzer

    The AutoAnalyzer is an automated analyzer using a flow technique called continuous flow analysis (CFA), or more correctly segmented flow analysis (SFA) first made by the Technicon Corporation. The instrument was invented in 1957 by Leonard Skeggs, PhD and commercialized by Jack Whitehead's Technicon Corporation.

  7. Gargamelle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gargamelle

    A bubble chamber is simply a container filled with a superheated liquid. A charged particle travelling through the chamber will leave an ionization track, around which the liquid vaporizes, forming microscopic bubbles. The entire chamber is subject to a constant magnetic field, causing the tracks of the charged particles to curve.

  8. Stuffing box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuffing_box

    A sound stuffing box installation is critical to safety because failure can admit a catastrophic volume of water into the boat. In a common type of stuffing box, rings of braided fiber, known as shaft packing or gland packing, form a seal between the shaft and the stuffing box.

  9. Air bubble entrainment (hydraulics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_bubble_entrainment...

    In hydraulic engineering, air bubble entrainment is defined as the entrapment of air bubbles and pockets that are advected within the turbulent flow. [1] The entrainment of air packets can be localised or continuous along the air–water interface. Examples of localised aeration include air entrainment by plunging water jet and at hydraulic ...
