How much pressure is in 328 feet of water?
If it is fresh water, and the surface is at sea level, then the pressure at the surface is 14.69 psi. As you submerge, then the pressure from the weight of the water above you is added to the air pressure above the water. For each foot that you descend, the water pressure will increase by 0.4331 psi, so at 328 feet deep, the water pressure is 142.0568 psi. Add the 14.69 psi air pressure to get 156.7468 psi.
Do pressure gauges need to be calibrated for altitude?
yes for every 5000 feet of elevation your bourdon tube type of gauge will increase by 2 psi. even though the sealed vessel you are checking remains at the same psi. example if i have a sealed tank at sea level and it is reading 12 psi. at 5000 feet the same tank and gauge will now read 14 psi. and at 10000 feet 16 psi. the tank pressure has not changed but the gauge is now out of whack because there is less pressure pressing on the bourdon tube. less atmospheric pressure easier for the gauge to go up.
Can you swim with a 5 ATM wach?
Yes, unless you are diving to a rather deep depth. One atmosphere is 15 pounds per square inch (or PSI.) A 5 ATM watch should be resistant to water entrainment to a pressure of 15*5, or 75 PSI. That would correspond to a depth of approximately 150 feet, depending on whether you are in fresh or salt water. Watch out, though - many watches not designed for diving have leather or other types of bands that can be damaged by water, especially salt water. (Anything you wear in salt water should be thoroughly rinsed afterwards to get rid of sea salts.)
What temperature does water boil at 700 PSI?
It is 262 deg Celsius.
How many psi equals 1 water column?
You need to know how high the water column is to calculate the pressure it exerts at its base! For example, a column of water 1 metre deep would exert a pressure of 9.81 kPa at its base (density x gravity x depth - 1000 * 9.81 * 1). This would be equal to approx 1.42 PSI.
How many feet of water does 15 PSI represent?
There are about 34.6 psi in 15 feet of water.
What is the pressure in psi required to lift water 15 feet?
To calculate head pressure in psi from a head height given in feet you multiply by 0.434. 15 x 0.434 = 6.51 psi
300 feet of sea water equals psi?
About 130 psi at 300 feet of water depth.
How many feet of fresh water equal 1000 psi?
About 2,200 feet.
How many psi is sixty feet?
One foot of water at 62 degrees F = 0.433 PSI. To find the PSI for any feet head not listed, multiply the feet head by0.433.the answer would be 25.99 PSI in water at 62 Degrees Fahrenheit
Psi to feet of water?
7000 PSI
What is the psi at 5400 feet under water?
At 5,400 feet of water depth the pressure is about 2,341.1 psi
What is the water pressure in psi at a depth of 300 feet?
At 300 feet of water depth the pressure is about 130 psi
What is 1500 feet of water converted to psi?
If we have six (6) feet of water, that will convert to about 2.6 psi (pounds per square inch).
How high will one psi lift water?
One pound of water one inch.
Elevated water tank psi to feet formula?
Each foot of elevation change is equal to 0.433 PSI of water pressure. Elevating the water tank 10 feet would add 4.43 psi.
How much weight kg can you lift with 1 psi of water pressure?
You can lift a locomotive or a house with 1 psi, if the pressure is applied over a large enough area.
