So it could then by all rights be called a glycol pump as opposed to a water pump.........:hook2:
Note above I called it a coolant pump or maybe antifreeze pump in a desperate attempt to not drag in fresh fuel for debate (pun intended)

So, is a glycol pump inlet a fresh glycol inlet or a recirculated glycol inlet?

In my line of work, all pumps move fresh water. The pumps are not denoted by the fluid (that would be stupid); instead they are named by their function in the process.

That would be confusing on a system with multiple processes with multiple pumps per process. In fact not naming a pump by the process it serves would be contrary to many specifications in many installations.

Is that toast on one side or two? It might constitute singular or plural.
(and where the sam-heck is @Kermit ?)

It might constitute singular or plural.
"Toast" is both singular and plural.
But no, no toasted side at all, therefore "raw".

Now, I'm going to take a hot shower in the backyard.

From engineering...
Fresh is moving versus Stagnant which in not.

Water Quality is a different Angst.

Water as a solvent, is a Mixture.

Water, because of it's unique properties and abundance, can be use for Cooling and Heating.

A molecular weight of 17 would be normally a gas at 70°F, but not Water.
CO2 is 22, NO2 =23 etc.
______
To lose the Angst, add more adjectives....
Fresh Sea Water
Stagnant Swamp Water
Cold Drinking Water
Running Hot Bath Water

As a Mixture...

Carbonated Water
Bourbon and Branch Water
Hic!

Water can be used as an Adjective too!
Water Craft, Water Wings, Water Way, Water Balloon.
Jim...

PS: Branch Water doesn't come from a Tree Branch.

Over the past few weeks I'm thinking that SBO should really be OBS, Old Bored Sailors suffering through an endless off season. :)

I can’t imagine the potential here if all of you could harness the wasted brain power and put it to good use.

@DougM I will remind you, brain power consists of energy, which may neither be created or destroyed...... or wasted for that matter..........

So when they burn waste gas at chemical plants in those flames coming out the top of pipes are really being useful. I never heard there use. Perhaps someone with unused brain power can share enlightenment.

Raw water must be different than medium done water. Something like steaks?

Based on my observation of others, I'd say that if you consume the wrong things, brain power CAN be destroyed. :) Since this is commonly done while in groups, and therefore not an isolated system, this still meets the requirements of the law of conservation of energy

In this thread's case I believe it is more like an ineffective exercise similar to one of those old Suzanne Somers thigh thingies.

Dear God, this thread makes me want to :banghead:only sailors can have a perlonged discussion about WATER!!!!!
I occasionally get into theses type of intentionally goofy discussions on a myriad of topics. I'm just wishing we were in all at Ivan Stress Free Bar doing this. While possibly killing some brain cells.

but I have yet to change to a spring jacket
What is a spring jacket? I have three, one for duck hunting, one for wet, and one for cold! I’m thinking about my poor northern sailing bros while I’m sailing and golfing in shorts. I hope your spring arrives very soon!
