The Tesla valve is a passive check valve with no moving parts. Because it has no moving parts, there is less wear and tear while reducing the risk of clogging. In general, the resistance to flow in ...

As an important liquid transportation equipment, vehicle mounted self-priming pumps have been widely used in various fields such as chemical, petroleum, fire protection, and agricultural irrigation.

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

This teaching package covers fluid kinematics topics. It includes description of fluid motion, introducing different co-ordinate systems used to mathematically calculate fluid flow behaviors and ...

Editor’s note: The Basics department this month is an excerpt from the ISA book Flow of Industrial Fluids – Theory and Equations by Raymond Mulley. Some material in this section may seem self-evident ...

Fluids play a crucial role in industrial processes like cooling, heating, and mixing. Traditionally, most industries would utilize Newtonian fluids—which have a constant viscosity—for such processes.
