    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(pressure)

    Air pressure in a bicycle tire relative to atmosphere (gauge pressure) [57] 300 kPa 50 psi Water pressure of a garden hose [58] 300 to 700 kPa 50–100 psi Typical water pressure of a municipal water supply in the US [59] 358 to 524 kPa: 52-76 psi Threshold of pain for objects outside the human body hitting it [60] 400 to 600 kPa 60–90 psi

  3. Draft (water) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_(water)

    Standard atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa (14.7 lbf/in 2) and that can only raise water to a theoretical maximum of 10.3 metres (34 feet). [3] Depending on application, fire department pumps lift water 6 to 10 metres (20 to 33 ft). Medium diameter hard suction hose, with attached strainer, for use with wildland firefighting apparatus.

  4. Airwatt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airwatt

    The power of the airflow is equal to the product of pressure and volumetric flow rate. Unlike electrical power (measured in watts), which includes energy lost due to inefficiencies, the airwatt directly reflects the actual airflow and suction power. Therefore, two vacuum cleaners with the same airwattage will have essentially the same suction ...

  5. Net positive suction head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_positive_suction_head

    If an NPSH A is say 10 bar then the pump you are using will deliver exactly 10 bar more over the entire operational curve of a pump than its listed operational curve. Example: A pump with a max. pressure head of 8 bar (80 metres) will actually run at 18 bar if the NPSH A is 10 bar. i.e.: 8 bar (pump curve) plus 10 bar NPSH A = 18 bar.

  6. Pore water pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pore_water_pressure

    Absorption pressure: attraction of surrounding soil particles to one another by adsorbed water films. Matric suction: the defining trait of unsaturated soil, this term corresponds to the pressure dry soil exerts on the surrounding material to equalise the moisture content in the overall block of soil and is defined as the difference between ...

  7. Total dynamic head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dynamic_head

    In fluid dynamics, total dynamic head (TDH) is the work to be done by a pump, per unit weight, per unit volume of fluid.TDH is the total amount of system pressure, measured in feet, where water can flow through a system before gravity takes over, and is essential for pump specification.

  8. Pressure tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_tank

    The pressure switch turns the water pump on when it senses a pressure that is less than P lo and turns it off when it senses a pressure greater than P hi. While the pump is on, the pressure tank fills up. The pressure tank is then depleted as it supplies water in the specified pressure range to prevent "short-cycling", in which the pump tries ...

  9. Treadle pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treadle_Pump

    A treadle pump is a human-powered suction pump that sits on top of a well and is used for irrigation. [1] It is designed to lift water from a depth of seven metres or less. The pumping is activated by stepping up and down on a treadle , which are levers, which drive pistons, creating cylinder suction that draws groundwater to the surface.
