The Wrong Implications
Most of these phrases imply that the shock, the surge, or the water hammer is addressed after it has been created.In fact most of those phrased apply to hydropneumatic devices that PREVENT a high level of shock, surge, or hammer, from occurring at all. The named devices are rarely designed to respond to a pressure incident in a liquid which must have an approximate typical velocity of 1,440 meters per second.

Famous quotes containing the words wrong and/or implications:
“From three to six months, most babies have settled down enough to be fun but aren’t mobile enough to be getting into trouble. This is the time to pay some attention to your relationship again. Otherwise, you may spend the entire postpartum year thinking you married the wrong person and overlooking the obvious—that parenthood can create rough spots even in the smoothest marriage.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
“The power to guess the unseen from the seen, to trace the implications of things, to judge the whole piece by the pattern, the condition of feeling life in general so completely that you are well on your way to knowing any particular corner of it—this cluster of gifts may almost be said to constitute experience.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
