Unit of measurement often used in Columbus, OH after its namesake sailor who, on the first ever Bahama Cruise, reckoned he was in India. 1.0 PioMeter = 8.0 feet.

Whilst rigging the Santa Maria’s mainsail with a 2 PioMeter line, the yoeman only needed 2 feet and so he discarded the 14 foot remnant.

Get the ping-pometer mug.A device which measures differential fluid pressure using two tubes; a dynamic tube pointing upstream into the flow, and a static tube pointing at right angles to the flow or optionally downstream away from the flow. The differential pressure measured across the tubes is proportional to the velocity of the fluid in which the tubes are immersed.
Pitometers are widely used to meaure water or gas flow in pipes, as they offer minimal restriction to the flow.
Pitometers are widely used to meaure water or gas flow in pipes, as they offer minimal restriction to the flow.
A pitometer inserted into a water or gas pipeline and connected to two pressure gauges, will display two different pressures, the upstream pressure being higher than the downstream pressure. From this differential pressure, the flow of the water or gas in the pipe can be calculated. Typically pitometers are supplied with a set of differential pressure look-up tables for different fluids.

Get the Pitometer mug.The use of art to creatively depict the number π to make it appear like porn math to an oft-innumerate public—when the most famous constant in mathematics looks pleasing to their naked eye albeit it is probably not so to their mind’s eye.
Even mathophobic artists couldn’t resist from indulging in some piometry every now and then to give their audience a faux appreciation of numerical or symbolic elegance.
