What is Tuyau?

in French, tuyau means a pipe or pipe. Literally, Tuyau is almost any type of rigid or flexible pipe. More often, however, Tuyau refers to a specific hydrostatic pressure mechanism including underwater pipes and a diaper chamber for the supply of compressed air for the operation of the machine. The mechanism was used as an early forge of the Romans and changed significantly, as the iron was processed in antiquity. Tuyau compression worked similarly to the bellows in more modern smiths. Because the device had no real movable parts or wearable seals, it was easy to set near streams and other water bodies. Deep water allowed Tuyau to produce higher compression and therefore more energy. The compressed air -based air -based air system is cold and surprisingly dry, even though it is derived from the water.

AS for a specific design, ancient and modern tuyaux have a tube with internal nozzles located with one end upstream. Water flows into the pipeline while tLines help create multiple air bubbles in incoming water. Increasing the water inside the pipeline results in the pipeline to drop deeper into the water, increasing the hydrostatic pressure. Gravity, water depth and water temperature learned how much pressure is exerted during this process.

At the opposite end of the pipe, a small skin chamber attracts air bubbles and forces the flow of water to the side. Higher hydrostatic pressure increases the number of air bubbles pushed into the diaper chamber. Air bubbles inside the Pop Pop Chamber as a result of changing pressure, compressed air supply, which can be fed by another tube to power blacksmiths, water hammers and other mechanisms. Once air bubbles appear, hydroostatic pressure in Tuyau decreases, the pipeline rises and the process is repeated.

Reduction of hydrostatic pressure in combination with the release of compressed air outputs necessary dischargem water during the final phase of Tuyau processing. The pipes from the water rise from the water as the pressure descends to pump the water back into the stream. Each step of the process is repeated and overlaps and provides consistent supply of compressed air. Although it is consistent in terms of delivery, strength or pressure of compressed air supply is not always so consistent.

Using the Tuyau system has helped to change the location of iron operations in Roman times. Rather than focusing on fire supplies and thereby locating smithies near forests or coal supplies, the operation could instead focus on energy production. Of course, the forge moved closer to the streams and other water bodies with good stream to use falling water systems such as Tuyau. Many improvements to the centuries came from the modification of water force systems used in mills and other industries.
