Why the slope of temperature versus pressure graph is positive in some cases and negative in other cases?
If the pressure is increasing then the slope is positive. If the pressure is decreasing then the slope is negative.
What is negative air machine?
used to create negative pressure in a room when clearing air for asbestos removal and other harmful particulates
What things have positive and negative numbers?
temperature battery magnet blood pressure the earth rotations
If a process is carried out at constant pressure P and the volume V of the system decreases then V is negative positive and the work w is negative positive zero?
In this case, V would be negative, and work w would be positive.
Dose a positive pressure drain need a trap?
A trap on a positive drain is used to avoid the 'contaminated' air in a HVAC system from traveling through the condensate line and entering into areas where it is unwanted. The trap becomes necessary when one condensate line is used for multiple units, especially if it is tied to other negative pressure drain traps. The negative pressure drain traps may not drain properly if they have to overcome the positive non- trapped pressure of another unit. It allows the condensate to drain more evenly, as well. Without a trap, the positive pressure from the unit can blow air through the drain with the water and cause 'spitting.' A trap on a positive pressure system may not always be necessary, but it is good practice to trap every drain and trap it properly. There are guidelines for both positive and negative pressure traps. Always follow the manufacturers recommendations.
What is intrathoracic pressure?
Intrathoracic pressure is the pressure inside of the pleural cavity. It is also called intrapleural pressure and the normal pressure is called negative pressure.
What is the intrathoracic pressure?
Negative intrathoracic pressure is the normal pressure in the area between the pleura of the lungs and the chest wall. The pressure is considered negative because it is less than the atmospheric pressure.
Does negative intrathoracic increases with inspiration?
Yes.
What happens when relaxation of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles increases intrapulmonic and intrathoracic pressure?
Exhalation describes the state when the diaphragm relaxes and intrapulmonic and intrathoracic pressure increases.
What pressure keeps lungs inflated?
Intrathoracic pressure
Why pause between inspiration and expiration in bronchial breathing?
inspiration is an active process that takes place by creation of negative intrathoracic pressure, in normal states where breathing is vesicular, even at a low negative pressure air keep on flowing into alveoli but in bronchial breathing as alveoli are either filled with secretions as in consolidation or a cavity is already filled with air and other contents, no movement of air takes place at the end inspiration despite of negative intrathoracic pressure thereby causing a pause between inspiration and expiration- now pay me thousand dollar!
What is the effect of respiration on the heart sounds?
during inspiration, intrathoracic pressure is decreased.
Intrathoracic pressure definition?
the amount of pressure built up in the lungs during inhalation which causes a vaccum affect.
How does positive-pressure ventilation affect cardiac output?
It increases intrathoracic pressure which decreases venous return to the heart and causes a decrease in cardiac output.
How does positive pressure ventilation affect cardiac output?
It increases intrathoracic pressure which decreases venous return to the heart and causes a decrease in cardiac output.
What is an intrathoracic node?
An intrathoracic node is a node within the chest cavity.
What effect does opening the valve have on the left lung?
This simulates a punctured wall of the thoracic cavity, the intrathoracic pressure will equalize with atmospheric pressure so that the lung cannot be inflated.
