    Okay, thanks very much for the clarification.

    Eotvos effect - Apparent only?

    Hi all, To get straight to the point of my question, is the Eotvos effect purely an 'apparent' effect? i.e. it only arises if you choose a biased reference frame that is fixed to the surface of a rotating object (in our case the spinning surface of the earth)? From my understanding of the...

    Pressure, diameter and flow in a pneumatic system

    Similar question, no real answers, more focused on the air tool than the flow/pressure, despite what the OP asked. I'm going to stick with the obvious theory that larger diameter equals more goodness. How much extra goodness I still haven't determined; but definitely extra goodness. I'll also...

    Pressure, diameter and flow in a pneumatic system

    So here's a very similar question I just found: http://www.woodweb.com/knowledge_base/Understanding_Pressure_Airflow_and_Hose_Diameter.html Haven't read it all yet so I'm not sure how valuable the advice is, but it's basically the same question.

    Pressure, diameter and flow in a pneumatic system

    Hi, thanks for the advice. Unfortunately this system is a portable one so fixed tubing isn't an option, otherwise I would be doing it :) I'm going to get a small pressure gauge that I can fit inline at the end of the current system so I can measure pressure drop across the current setup. If it...

    Pressure, diameter and flow in a pneumatic system

    So, should I take it from the lack of response that it's not possible to calculate what I'm seeking with the information provided, or that it is unclear what I'm asking?

    Pressure, diameter and flow in a pneumatic system

    Hi everyone, I have a problem (which is likely to be fairly simple), which I need a hand to resolve. I'm trying to determine the impact of changing the internal diameter of the hose/fitting system in a compressed air system (in this case a portable compressor, with an inbuilt air receiver)...
