The effects of hydrostatic pressure are of importance in many fields of engineering, such as shipbuilding, construction of dams, weirs and locks, and sanitary and building services engineering. With the HM 150.05A hydrostatic pressure gauge, the following key topics can be studied experimentally: ·Pressure distribution in liquid considering gravity ·The "lateral force" of hydrostatic pressure ·Lateral force pressure center The appendix to this test description contains prepared worksheets to facilitate systematic evaluation of experimental results.
