Static Pressure
Pressure exerted by a fluid at rest.
In measurement terms, this is the pressure reading obtained from a gauge whose measurement is taken at the pipe wall, a point where fluid velocity is zero.
One of the pressure models available in FluidFlow. This model is recommended for systems that do not start at a physical boundary such as a vessel or reservoir but rather a particular location in a pipe network.
