why use a pressurized tank?

Hi. Usually to minimize pressure variations in a home's water system. Fire extinguishers, aerosol cans, Coleman stoves, etc. all use them to store potential energy.

Pressure relief valves are valves designed to open at a certain pressure, usually to protect equipment from rupturing due to high pressure.\n\nMost industrial pressure relief valves are spring loaded devices that will pop open at the pre-set pressure, and then re-seat after the pressure has fallen low enough.\n\nIf you have a hot water tank in your home, it probably has a pressure relief valve, designed to blow off some water if the pressure gets high in the tank, to prevent the tank from exploding dangerously.

Not very much.  The water pressure on your body would prevent you from being able to bring in air that is at normal atmospheric pressure.  You need a compressor on the surface and a hose to breath from.

Use of pressurized gases to do work.\n\nFor more info, see this:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic

Because gas doesn't have a definable 'volume'.  You can compress it and change it as long as you are willing to deal with changing the pressure.  To compensate, you have to PV = nRT

use a can of compressed air

Fill your Tank........Keep going....

They send it to cooling towers to turn the steam back into water, so they can take advantage, once again, of the mechanical energy involved in water expanding into steam.  Water expands a lot turning into steam, but when steam just turns into even hotter steam, the pressure increases, but not that much.\n\nSure they could be even more efficient by finding a good use for the extra heat, but that would be a bunch more machinery.

It is depands up on the type of piping which u have selected. Mostly you can select raised face flanges.It will reduce the size of the gasket which u r going to consume on it. And it will give a correct contact b/w two flanges.One more thing is you can very well select butain rated flanges for with standing high pressure.

A ballast tank is tank used to hold ballast.  Ballast is weight used to steady or hold something down.  \n\nSubmarines rise and fall by altering their buoyancy (ability to float).  Archimedes principle states that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of water displaced by the object.  If the object weighs more than the amount of water it displaces, it will sink.  If it weighs less than the amount of water it displaces it will float. A submarine therefore alters is weight in order to alter its bouyancy.  A submarine submerges by allowing water to enter the ballast tank thus creating a negative buoyancy.  A submarine rises by blowing the water back out of the ballast tank thus producing positive buoyancy.

You would need a tank about the size of a house (55ft cube) unless you compress the air then it would be much smaller.

With enough pressure any fluid may be used to creat domes, caps, ect in your sheet metals. By sing the same processes in deep drawing you could in theory use pressuized fluid by restraining the sides of your medal, but I would guess you might get irregular shapes by just applying this pressure randomly.\nIf you were to possibly use an iron (solid) stencil to say over the top of your sheet metal, then apply the pressurized fluid you might achieve the design in the stencil.\nThat's about all I can tell you, I'm not an engineer.

One which is not interrupted. This can be done with a reserve tank, for example, as in an "air hose". It can deliver a constant supply of air, from the reserve and then ,as the pressure begins to dissipate, the pump comes back on, keeping the supply constant. The pressure in the tank is maintained at a higher level than at the "regulated" out put.

Pressure is force per unit area. \n\nThe rest of your question is not clear. \n\nPressure is used to forecast weather. \n\nPressure is used to float boats. \n\nPressure is used to power steam engines. \n\nand so on.

It should say right on the label on the tank that you must not store the tanks indoors. If one of the valves failed or was opened up by a small child, it could spark and make a huge explosion. . . not to mention it would poison your house with the gas.\nThat is why you always see those "exchange a tank" places keeping their tanks outside. (Like at Home Depot)

If the inside is pressurized, the shape has to symmetrical in such a way, that will make the internal pressure distribute itself more or less equally. Else the can may burst where the pressure is more.\nAlso the shape has to have a logical design.\nFor the sake of argument, let us consider others shapes.\n\nSpherical:: well that's not possible. Not very easy to hold !!\nBut yeah, from the physics point of view, its the ideal.\n\nCube and Cuboid :: The corners present can cause unequal pressure distribution, also the strain present may give rise to corrosion.\n\nElliptical:: no comments !!

try a flotation tank experience. it is incredible...but you got to want to and you should not be claustrophobic or it'd be hell re-invented
