Capillary Water "Capillary water held between two soil grains." -Department of Agriculture, 1899... |
 |
Capillary Water Surface "Form of the capillary water surface." -Department of Agriculture, 1899... |
 |
Capillary Water Surface Variation "Variation in the direction and magnitude of the pressure of the capillary surface due to the form of the surface." -Department of Agriculture, 1899... |
 |
Capillary Water Surfaces "Diagram showing three soil grains surrounded by water films: Straight arrows indicate direction and magnitude of the pressure of the capillary water surfaces; curved arrows indicate movement of water... |
 |
Centrifugal pump This figure represents a small centrifugal pump as mounted for use. The largest class of centrifugal pumps are usually immersed in the water to be pumped, and revolve horizontally.... |
 |
Connected pumps This figure consists of three pumps, the piston rods of which are jointed to three cranks on a horizontal axle, by means of three connecting rods.... |
 |
Course of Streams "As the liquid flows out of each orifice, each stream follows a parabolic path based upon pressure of the liquid inside the container. Orifices A and C are equidistant, thus reach the same point." &md... |
 |
Cup, Tantalus's "Whenever liquid reaches the bottom of the short leg on the siphon inside the cup, the liquid is discharged out of the bottom of the siphon. Discharge continues until the liquid level drops below the ... |
 |
Double-action pump Double acting pumps use both sides of the piston to pump fluid.... |
 |
Fire engine pump The ordinary fire-engine is formed by the union of two forcing-pumps which play into a common reservoir, containing in its upper portion air compressed by the working of the engine.... |
 |
Forcing-pump The forcing pump consists of a pump-barrel dipping into water, and having at the bottom a valve opening upward.... |
 |
Hydraulic Bellows "An instrument called the hydrostatic bellows, also shows, in a striking manner, the great force of a small quantity of water, pressing in a perpendicular direction. This instrument consists of two b... |
 |
Hydraulic ram "The hydraulic ram uses alternating water pressure, air pressure, and suction to provide a steady stream of water through the delivery pipe, e." —Hallock 1905... |
 |
Hydraulic Ram "Pumps water in bursts. Water enters pipe B and is forced into D then up the tube F. Any excess water in tube B exits through E." —Quackenbos 1859... |
 |
Leaky Drain This illustration shows how putrefying animal matters from a leaky drain and an overflowing cess-pool soak diagonally into the well and contaminate the well-water, which is pumped up and used by the f... |
 |
Locks "The lock C is a controllable compartment with raise-able and lower-able gates D and E. Since water always finds its level, by raising and lowering the gates, two separate water levels can be maintai... |
 |
Mill, Barker's "Grain enters the mill at H down into D and into tube A. The grain passes down through the holes B and C causing A to rotate. This rotation powers the millstone S at the top which grinds the grain be... |
 |
Pascal's Law "...let the area of the piston a be 1 square inch; of b, 40 square inches. According to Pascal's law, 1 pound placed on a will balance 40 pounds placed on b." —Hallock 1905... |
 |
Piston and barrel of Deleuil's air-pump "To avoid friction and heat, the piston is not in contact with the cylinder in which it works."... |
 |
Press, hydraulic "Pascal's law finds an important application in the hydraulic press, in the more common forms of which the pressure of a piston operated by a lever is transmitted though a pipe to a piston of larger a... |
 |
Pressure of Liquids "The tightly fitted piston at the top of a glass vessel of water is driven down. The contained liquid is compressed and the pressure equally distributed through the glass and the water flows out of th... |
 |
Pressure, water vs wood "The vessel a is fitted with a wooden bock of the same size as, and free to move in, the cylinder; the vessel b is filled with water, whose depth is the same as the length of the wooden block in a. Wh... |
