Study on a Concentric Tube Bulb Manometer and its Performance Compared to U-shaped Manometer
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents comparative study of a new type of manometer calledconcentric tube bulb (C.T.B) manometer. Its performance of measuring differential heightis studied against conventional U-shaped manometer. Pressure drops and mass flow ratesare calculated by taking various systems comprising of different flow measuring devicessuch as orifice and venturimeters using both U- shaped and C.T.B manometers.Comparison between the physically measured values of differential pressure drops andmass flow rates with the calculated values based on theoretical equations is also made.Experiments are carried out using mercury and CCl4 in these manometers as sensing fluids.Water is used as flowing fluid for mass flow rate and pressure drop measurements, whereasin gauge pressure measurements air is used.

Background: Direct monitoring of arterial pressure using a transducer system is not affordable in most operating rooms and ICU wards in Iran. It is, however, possible to use an aneroid manometer instead, but it is not standardized yet, nor studied enough and its measurements may not be interpretable. Methods: To study the correlation of the arterial pressure readings between a manometer and a ...
متن کاملU-Tube Manometer Calibration using ANFIS
This paper deals with the implementation of the Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) on a Xilinx based Field Programmable Gate Array Spartan-3E. The implemented hardware is then used to efficiently calibrate the U-Tube manometer, in which the relation between the level of mercury and the Capacitance developed across the Copper Plates of the manometer is highly non-linear. This system s...
متن کاملComparison of tracheal tube cuff inflation pressure among anesthesia team with different gradual level
Background & Objectives: Tracheal intubation is frequently performed in operating room. Over inflation of the endotracheal tube cuff is a risk factor for tracheal ischemia and subsequent complications. On the other hand inadequate cuff pressure increases the risk of aspiration of gastric contents. In this study, the endotracheal tube cuff pressure filled by the anesthesia team has been compared...

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using a pressure manometer on the delivery of target airway pressures during manual hyperinflation by student physiotherapists in the laboratory and clinical environments. Manual hyperinflations were delivered under control and feedback conditions where the feedback condition involved manual hyperinflation with a pressure manometer. Compa...
متن کاملHandcrafted cuff manometers do not accurately measure endotracheal tube cuff pressure
OBJECTIVE To test the agreement between two handcrafted devices and a cuff-specific manometer. METHODS The agreement between two handcrafted devices adapted to measure tracheal tube cuff pressure and a cuff-specific manometer was tested on 79 subjects. The cuff pressure was measured with a commercial manometer and with two handcrafted devices (HD) assembled with aneroid sphygmomanometers (HD1...
