When the sodium potassium alloy is used as a coolant in nuclear reactors, is created which makes the coolant radioactive.

When the decays, it causes a buildup of magnesium in the coolant.

The mean temperature of the hot coolant leaving the reactor core was designed to be 648 C.

Light water reactors (LWRs) like those at Fukushima, which use water as a primary coolant, produce most of the world s nuclear power.

For the Fukushima nuclear power plant, a 1,000 year flood and ordinarily innocuous design defects combined to deprive the reactors of circulating water coolant and cause serious radiation leaks.

Sound pressure level Sound pressure is the difference, in a given medium, between average local pressure and the pressure in the sound wave.

The pressure gradient between this region and the ambient pressure will propel matter toward the low pressure area.

The airspeed is derived from the difference between the ram air pressure from the pitot tube, or stagnation pressure, and the static pressure.

Measurement and units Vapor pressure is measured in the standard units of pressure.

Diplomatic pressure needed

For a vapor bubble to expand, the temperature must be high enough that the vapor pressure exceeds the ambient pressure (the atmospheric pressure, primarily).

Domestic pressure could very well bring down the regime, but international pressure will not.

Compressed air is air kept under a pressure that is greater than atmospheric pressure.

Dania felt the pressure.

Social pressure for release?

Popular pressure is growing

formula_4Where formula_5 is dynamic pressure.

gas pressure bottles, and

The force pushing the water towards the low pressure region is called the pressure gradient force.

A back pressure valve on the gas outlet to maintain a steady pressure in the vessel.

Peer pressure now matters, too.

Applying pressure won't be easy.

Reducing demographic pressure on forests.

The exhaust pressure is controlled by a regulating valve to suit the needs of the process steam pressure.

At the elevated pressure in the bottle, more carbon dioxide can dissolve in water than at atmospheric pressure.

A systolic pressure of 40 mm Hg typically implies a mean pressure of more than 25 mm Hg.

(iii) Pressure sensors shall, where possible, be subject to a minimum pressure force appropriate for the intended target.

These arteries distend when the blood pressure rises during systole and recoil when the blood pressure falls during diastole.

Cerebral perfusion pressure, or CPP, is the net pressure gradient causing cerebral blood flow to the brain (brain perfusion).

Two booster stages were added to the LP (low pressure) compressor, which increased the overall pressure ratio to 29.3.

It's pressure sensitive, you can notice.

Let me take your blood pressure.

Moreover, it is under extreme pressure.

Yet the international pressure is muted.

Moroccans have the pressure to conform.

Several environmental factors influence blood pressure.

The mitral valve opens when the pressure in the left atrium is greater than the pressure in the left ventricle.

A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, or the pressure exerted by the weight of the Earth's atmosphere above a particular location.

The normal boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the vapor pressure is equal to normal atmospheric pressure.

Pressure Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area that is always applied perpendicularly to a surface by the surrounding gas.

At a given temperature, a substance with higher vapor pressure vaporizes more readily than a substance with a lower vapor pressure.

Europe s leaders were right about the pressure.

Chinese officials agonize over the US pressure.

Nevertheless, there are ways to pressure Zenawi

International pressure alone will not change this.
