Example:The system designed a pressure relief valve to prevent overpressure in the pipeline.

Definition:The process of releasing stored or excessive pressure from a system, often to prevent damage or to ensure safe operation.

Example:Meteorologists measure depression to forecast changes in weather patterns.

Definition:The act of measuring lower than normal or atmospheric pressure, which is different from the measurement of fluid pressures.

Example:The thermal expansion of materials is an important factor in the design of high-pressure vessels.

Definition:The process of becoming larger or growing, which is opposite to the concept of pressurization or the measurement of pressures in fluids.
