  • tarind, mis jaotab laeva veekindlateks teenistus-, elu- jm ruumideks. Vaheseinad võivad olla piki või põiki laeva, tasapindsed või volditud (gofreeritud). Allveelaevadel kasutatakse ka sfäärilisi vaheseinu. Sõltuvalt ruumi otstarbest võivad vaheseinad olla vee-, nafta- ja gaasitihedad, heli- ja tulekindlad.
  • transverse, or fore and aft, vertical partition in a vessel to divide interior into compartments. Not necessarily watertight. Increases rigidity of structure, localizes effects of fire and, when watertight, localizes inflow of water.

  • a physical partition that divides a plane into different classes or sections
Good to know
  • Typically, a bulkhead is a wall but can also be a curtain or screen. Bulkheads can be found throughout the plane, separating the seats from the galley and lavatory areas.

bulkhead
Usage examples
  • In the aviation industry, the term “bulkhead” is used to denote a physical partition, such as a wall, curtain, etc., inside an aircraft that divides the seating layout into classes or sections. In addition, you can also find bulkheads that separate the front or rear row of seats from the lavatory and galley (kitchen) areas inside the aircraft. Different airlines will usually provide bulkhead seating near the window, in the middle (for wide-bodied airlines), or in the aisle. The seats that are located right behind such bulkheads or partitions, are referred to as “bulkhead seats”.
  • ... 4) items must not be stowed in toilets or against bulkheads that are incapable of restraining articles against movement forwards, sideways or upwards and unless the bulkheads carry a placard specifying the greatest mass that may be placed there; ...

  • voomõõturi õhuke vahesein, millel on ava, mis on asetatud vooga risti, ja see kitsendab voo ja rõhuerinevuse, mille tõttu mõõtmine kitsenduses annab voomahu
    Good to know
    • Õhukesel vaheseinal on avasid kolme tüüpi: kontsentriline, ekstsentriline ja segmentaalne.
  • plate of flowmeters with a hole through it, placed perpendicular to the flow, and constricts the flow, and measuring the pressure differential across the constriction gives the flow rate
    Good to know
    • There are three type of orifice: concentric, eccentric, and segmental.
  • thin plate in wich a circular opening has been machined
diafragma preferred
Usage examples
  • Standardseid diafragmasid kirjeldatakse kui „terava kandilise servaga õhukesi vaheseinu“, kuna vaheseina/plaadi paksus on mõõteosa läbimõõduga võrreldes väike ja ava voo sissevoolu serv on terav ja kandiline.
  • Diafragmat kasutatakse kõige sagedamini vookiiruse mõõtmiseks torudes, kui vedelik on ühefaasiline (mitte gaaside ja vedelike või vedelike ja tahkete ainete segu) ja hästi segunenud, voog on pigem pidev kui pulseeriv, vedelik hõivab kogu toru (välistades muda või kinnijäänud gaasi), vooprofiil on ühtlane ja hästi arenenud ning vedeliku ja vookiirus vastavad teatud muudele tingimustele.

orifice plate preferred
Usage examples
  • Standard orifice plates are descriebed as "thin plate" and "with sharp square edge", because the thickness of the plate os small compared with the diameter of the measuring section and because the upstream edge of the orifice is sharp and square.
  • Orifice plates are most commonly used to measure flow rates in pipes, when the fluid is single-phase (rather than being a mixture of gases and liquids, or of liquids and solids) and well-mixed, the flow is continuous rather than pulsating, the fluid occupies the entire pipe (precluding silt or trapped gas), the flow profile is even and well-developed and the fluid and flow rate meet certain other conditions.
metering orifice
Usage examples
  • A metering orifice is a precision-engineered, restricted opening - typically a plate with a hole - installed in a pipe to measure fluid flow rates (liquids, gases, or steam) based on differential pressure, as described by Bernoulli's principle.
eccentric orifice plate variant
