Static
(1) Electrical discharges in the atmosphere that interfere with radio or television reception. (2) Not moving or progressing. At rest. Inactive. Stationary.
Static coefficient of friction (cof)
The degree of slip resistance presented in a quantitative number that expresses the degree of slip resistance. Slip resistance is evaluated by the horizontal pull method (ASTM C1028). There is no current ANSI requirement a coefficient of friction of 0.5 and above is the recognized industry standard for a slip resistant floor.
Static discharge head
The vertical distance from the pump to the highest outlet in the water system Stand By Loss. The amount of heat lost while a unit is in stand by mode.
Static load
Acting through weight only. Downward pressure exerted by a motionless body or mass.
Static pressure
The pressure when no water is flowing.
Static pressure curve
Manufacturer's graph which helps engineers match the fans and HVAC systems, by showing the relationship between the static output pressure of a fan and its output volume at a specific speed.
Static pressure regain
When the forward moving velocity of air in an HVAC duct decreases, the system static pressure increases.
Static water level
The undisturbed level of water in the well before pumping.
Station numbers
Numbers given to stakes that are used to mark distance along the ground when grading or excavating.
