    Pressure Distribution around a Symmetric Aerofoil Abstract: The following report is based on an experiment conducted to calculate the lift curve slope for a symmetrical aerofoil subjected to varying angles of attack. Pressure readings were taken at different points on the upper and lower surface of the aerofoil. The report concludes that maximum lift is generated between 12 º -15º‚ which is also the stall point. It also states that region close to the leading edge contributes most to the lift force

    Analysis of Orthostatic Vital Signs The purpose of this assignment was to measure‚ document and analyse six recordings of orthostatic blood pressure‚ orthostatic pulse and respiratory rate on my lab partner. Orthostatic Hypotension is a condition when there is a drop in systolic pressure of more than 20 mm Hg‚ or orthostatic pulse increases of 20 bpm or more which occurs due to a quick change to a standing position (Jarvis‚ pp. 163). Six recordings were taken over a certain period of time to better

    BOURDON TUBE PRESSURE GAUGE Bourdon Tubes are known for its very high range of differential pressure measurement in the range of almost 100‚000 psi (700 MPa). It is an elastic type pressure transducer. The device was invented by Eugene Bourdon in the year 1849. The basic idea behind the device is that‚ cross-sectional tubing when deformed in any way will tend to regain its circular form under the action of pressure. The bourdon pressure gauges used today have a slight elliptical cross-section and

    EXPERIMENT: Pressure drop over a bubble cap plate. AIM : This experiment is conducted in an experimental test ring in which the effect of the variation in vapor and liquid flow rates on the pressure drop across bubble cap plates is simulated using air and water to represent the vapor and liquid respectively. THEORY: In a pilot tube the relation between the gas velocity and pressure drop is Where‚ is the differential pressure as expressed in the head of the fluid flowing.  Where‚ ’=level

    HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE The definition of High blood pressure is a measurement of the force applied against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps blood through the body. The pressure is determined by the force and amount of blood pumped and the size and flexibility of the arteries. The blood pressure is continually changing depending on activity‚ temperature‚ diet‚ emotional state‚ posture‚ physical state‚ and drugs. The blood pressure is ussually taken while the person

    report you will learn of how my group and I performed our lab on blood pressure and what the results mean. We found the blood pressure before and after sixty seconds of jogging in place to see the effects. We found that after the physical activity the subject’s blood pressure was higher. From this we take away that physical activity does have a significant effect on the heart and blood pressure. Background: Blood pressure is the measured force applied to the artery walls as the heart pumps. It

    A barometer is a widely used weather instrument that measures atmospheric pressure (also known as air pressure or barometric pressure) - the weight of the air in the atmosphere A barometer is an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. It can measure the pressure exerted by the atmosphere by using water‚ air‚ or mercury. From the variation of air pressure‚ one can forecast short-term changes in the weather. There are two main types of barometers – Mercury Barometers newer digital friendly
