    Calculating the Impact of Compressed Air on Hydrostatic Pressure Testing

    This experiment is to find the holding power of a seal. I'm planning to seal both sides of a component (a tube with i.d of 1.5" and 2" long) with the seal and pump water into it. To flush out the air inside, I'm tilting the component as much as i can while pumping water into it. the idea is flow...
