    Carrying a maximum of 3,000 imperial gallons (14,000 L; 3,600 US gal) of water for a boiler operating at 200 psi (1.4 MPa), they developed 20,155 lbf (89.65 kN) of tractive effort. They could be found operating on most parts of the former GWR system.

    high pressure 14 bar (1.4 MPa; 200 psi), low pressure 5 bar (500 kPa; 73 psi), with starting valve (Anfahrventil) max 7 bar (700 kPa; 100 psi) Valve gear:

  5. Ground pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_pressure

    The ground pressure of motorized vehicles is often compared with the ground pressure of a human foot, which can be 60 – 80 kPa while walking or as much as 13 MPa for a person in spike heels. [ 3 ] Increasing the size of the contact area on the ground (the footprint ) in relation to the weight decreases the unit ground pressure.

  6. Pressure - Wikipedia

    An example of this is the air pressure in an automobile tire, which might be said to be "220 kPa (32 psi)", but is actually 220 kPa (32 psi) above atmospheric pressure. Since atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 100 kPa (14.7 psi), the absolute pressure in the tire is therefore about 320 kPa (46 psi).

    Their application can be from 3 horsepower (2.2 kW) to over 1,200 horsepower (890 kW) and from low pressure to moderately high pressure (>1,200 psi or 8.3 MPa). The classifications of rotary screw compressors vary based on stages, cooling methods, and drive types among others. [ 8 ]

    [4] [5] [6] The Kistler ballistic pressure measurement sensor 6215 has a maximum working pressure of 600 MPa (87,023 psi) and is mounted recessed inside the cartridge case (the face of high-pressure sensor does not contact the cartridge case) and requires that the test cartridge case have a hole drilled in it prior to testing. The test ...
