ORIFICE FITTING The Daniel Senior Orifice fitting is a fluid measurement device that measures flow based on the differential pressure principle. The Daniel Senior Fitting utilizes a duel chamber design which positions an orifice plate in a flow stream. The orifice plate generates a pressure drop as flow moves though the Daniel Senior Orifice Fitting. By measuring the pressure drop as flow moves through the Daniel Senior Orifice Fitting‚ and using the pressure drop (differential pressure) one can

Mt Etna is a stratovolcano ( another name is a composite cone) which means that multiple layers of ash and solidified lava have formed this volcano. Mount Etna is formed on a convergent plate boundary‚ on two of the world’s active continental plates- the African and The Eurasian Plate. The Eurasian and African plates are moving past each other along most of the boundary‚ making it a

moves in a circle‚ which is called CONVECTION CELL. Plates on the crust are not statistic because they are so heavy that they move down. The movement of magma causes the movement. A volcano may appear when magma in the mantle rises through the plates. 4 Types of Boundaries Destructive Constructive Collision Conservative Destructive Boundary (Pacific) Oceanic with Continental If there is friction between two plates there may be an earthquake Constructive Boundary (Atlantic)

1. What is Earth’s mantle? The mantle is a part of a terrestrial planet or other rocky body large enough to have differentiation by density. The interior of the Earth‚ similar to the other terrestrial planets‚ is chemically divided into layers. The mantle is a layer between the crust and the outer core. ... 2. What elements make up the Earth’s mantle? Magnesium‚ silicon‚ iron and oxygen‚ aluminum‚ silicon‚ calcium‚ sodium and potassium 3. Describe the “big splash” theory of the Moon’s origin? The

Encoding Information with Light’s Orbital Angular Momentum Light is the future of communication‚ traveling at 3‚000‚000 meters per second‚ the cosmic speed limit of the universe. Its tremendous speed makes it optimal for data transmission. The conventional method to encode information in light is through amplitude modulation‚ i.e. light pulses‚ time division multiplexing‚ i.e. delaying the time light beams enter a channel‚ and wavelength multiplexing‚ i.e. multiple beams of light in one channel

Plate Tectonics The forces that shape the earth begin beneath the lithosphere. Rock in the asthenosphere is hot enough to flow slowly. Heated rock rises‚ moves up toward the lithosphere‚ cools and circulates downward. Riding above this circulation system are the tectonic plates‚ enormous moving pieces of the earth’s lithosphere. [pic] Plate Movement Tectonic Plates move in four different ways. When tectonic plates come into contact‚ changes on the earth’s surface occur. 1. Diveregnt Boundary-

“The extent to which tectonic processes represent hazards depends on when and where they are experienced. Discuss” Throughout this essay I will be discussing my view on the extent to which I think tectonic processes represent hazards depending on when and where they are experienced. My view is that the hazards caused by tectonic processes such as volcanoes and earthquakes are very much likely to have a bigger impact socially‚ environmentally and economically depending on where they had occurred

Earthquakes and Logarithms Earthquakes are responsible for a wast majority of natural hazards on our planet. This natural geological phenomena are almost impossible to predict‚ and they occur usually in zones of the planet that are prone to movement in the uppermost crust of the earth. Certain areas are more likely to experience earthquakes‚ and also the aftermath of the earthquakes can be just as destructive or sometimes even more. Different methods of measuring earthquakes have been implemented
