Because it will provides maximum dflection in Only vertical direction and no any other bending of tube due to pressure occurs.instead if cross section is circular then along with vertical defletion or bending of tube there is also bending along horizaotal direction,which leads to error.so it has oval shape............got it

Does an oval have a three dimensional shape?
An oval is two-dimensional. An ovoid is a three-dimensional shape based on an oval - like an egg,
What is the shape of ampalaya?
long oval shape
What shape is a 3D Oval?
The shape of an egg.
What is principal of bourdon tube?
The bourdon tube is a curved oval cross-sectional tube. The tendency of a fluid under pressure to try to shape its container, the tube, into a spherical shape causes the tube to elongate, moving the dial mechanism to a position indicating the application of pressure. The greater the pressure applied the greater the movement of the tube.
Why does a bourdon tube bends when water pressure is applied?
A bourdon tube, typically found in pressure gauges and switches is an oval shaped tube which is then curled lengthwise into an arc. When pressure is applied internally to the tube the natural tendency is for the oval shaped tube to move to form a circular tube, kind of like a balloon does when you blow air into it. Because it is curled when the tube moves towards a circular configuration the shorter inside of the arc lengthens as a result while the outer arc tend to shorten. In other word the tube tries to straighten itself out. When the pressure is removed from the inside of the tube the elasticity of the metal pulls it back into it's original shape. Bourdon tubes are made in different sizes and the smaller dimensioned (the oval not the arc) tubes can carry higher pressures than the larger ones.
Pressure inside a bourdon tube pressure gadge causes the bourdon to straighten or curl?
It causes the Bourdon tube to straighten.
What did Eugene Bourdon invent?
Eugene Bourdon invented and patented the Bourdon tube pressure gauge.
What is a Bourdon tube gauge?
A Bourdon Gauge is a pressure indicator, it works with a "C" shaped tube oval in cross section that tries to straighten under pressure. When the tube tries to straighten it pulls on a connecting arm which turns a needle that is against a card that states the pressure. A bourdon gauge lets you know when a stoem is headed your way.It is like a warning tool because it lets you know early so you can prepare for the storm.
Is your eye shaped like a tube?
No.It has an oval shape I Guess
What is bourdon tube pressure gauge?
An elastic transducer, that is bourdon tube which is fixed and open at one end to receive the pressure which is to be measured. The other end of the bourdon tube is free and closed. The cross-section of the bourdon tube is eliptical. The bourdon tube is in a bent form to look like a circular arc. To the free end of the bourdon tube is attached an adjustable link, which is inturn connected to a sector and pinion as shown in diagram. To the shaft of the pinion is connected a pointer which sweeps over a pressure calibrated scale.
Who invented the bourdon tube?
Eugene Bourdon 1849 France measures the preasure of liquids and gasses
What shape are your lungs?
bronchi is tube shaped organ. It splits from primary bronchus and enters lungs.
Can bourdon's tube pressure gauge be used to measure negative pressure?
Bourdon's tube pressure gauge cannot be used to measure negative pressure. This is because absolute pressure must be measured and the Bourdon gauge only indicates the gauge pressure.
Bourdon tube pressure gauge?
The pressure applied to the hollow oval-shaped bent tube, known as the Bourdon tube, deforms the cross-section of the tube as well as causes a relative motion, proportional to the applied pressure, of the free end of the tube with respect to its fixed end. Thus, this tube acts as a transducer element as it converts the desired input, i.e. pressure into a displacement x at its free end. This displacement is amplified by the combined lever and the gearing arrangement which may be referred to as the signal conditioning elements. Finally, the movement of the pointer attached to the gear on a scale gives an indication of the pressure and thus the pointer and the scale constitute the data presentation elements of the Bourdon tube pressure gauge.
When was Oval tube station created?
Oval tube station was created in 1890.
