A pressurizer is a component of a pressurized water reactor. The basic design of the pressurized water reactor includes a requirement that the coolant...

Pressurized walls are a type of wall that is installed without the use of nails or screws. The term is frequently used interchangeably with "temporary...

A pressurized heavy-water reactor (PHWR) is a nuclear reactor that uses heavy water (deuterium oxide D2O) as its coolant and neutron moderator. PHWRs...

A compressed fluid (also called a compressed or unsaturated liquid, subcooled fluid or liquid) is a fluid under mechanical or thermodynamic conditions...

A Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA) is a component used on the International Space Station (ISS) to convert the Common Berthing Mechanism (CBM) interface...

These 'pressurization' problems are, of course, non-existent with naturally ventilated smokeproof enclosures. The fans and air ducts used to pressurize the...

remain pressurized, as any appreciable drop in pressurization will result in failure. However, the airframes could be handled without tank pressurization through...

fuselage design with circular cross-section for strength. The need for pressurization in the cockpit area also led to the B-29 being one of very few American...

the maintenance service left the pressurization system in manual mode and the pilots did not check the pressurization system. As a result, they suffered...
