# Industrial Specification: Outlet Manifold

## 1. Technical Definition
A distribution component that collects and directs mixed gases from a gas mixing chamber to multiple downstream outlets.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-15 bar**. Failure boundary: **18.5 bar internal pressure**, Mechanism: **Yield strength of 316L stainless steel (205 MPa) exceeded at 18.5 bar internal pressure in 2mm wall thickness with 50mm diameter, causing plastic deformation and permanent structural damage**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.
