flow displacement
1Flow measurement — is the quantification of bulk fluid movement. Flow can be measured in a variety of ways. Positive displacement flow meters acumulate a fixed volume of fluid and then count the number of times the volume is filled to measure flow. Other flow… …
2Displacement thickness — is the distance by which a surface would have to be moved parallel to itself towards the reference plane in an ideal fluid stream of velocity u 0 to give the same mass flow as occurs between the surface and the reference plane in a real fluid.In… …
3Displacement chromatography — is a chromatography technique in which a sample is placed onto the head of the column[n 1] and is then displaced by a solute that is more strongly sorbed than the components of the original mixture. The result is that the components are resolved… …

6Displacement ventilation — See also: Underfloor air distribution Displacement ventilation is an room air distribution strategy where conditioned outdoor air is supplied at floor level and extracted above the occupied zone, usually at ceiling height.[1] Contents 1 System… …
7displacement current — Elect. the rate of change, at any point in space, of electric displacement with time. [1890 95] * * * ▪ electronics in electromagnetism, a phenomenon analogous to an ordinary electric current, posited to explain magnetic fields that are… …
8Displacement Volumetric Meter — A Displacement Volumetric Meter is a device which measures total volume. It can operate on the principle of the fluid sweeping out a fixed calibrated volume, which produces a rotation of a calibrated gauge. By maintaining constant conditions and… …
9flow till — A till that may be either subglacial or supraglacial in origin. Flow till displays secondary transport, sorting, and/or fabric modification by plastic mass flow. Flow till exhibits weak stratification and sorting and may contain distorted… …
10Positive displacement meter — A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires the fluid being measured to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for any fluid flow to occur. Positive displacement (PD) flowmeters make volumetric flow… …
