Definition, Meaning & Synonyms

hyperstatic

Adjective

hʌɪpər’stætɪk

Definition

Referring to a condition in which a fluid is in a state of hyperstatic pressure, where the pressure exerted by the fluid exceeds the standard conditions.

Examples

The hyperstatic condition in the pipeline led to a burst due to exceeding pressure limits.
In hyperstatic systems, engineers must account for additional forces acting on the structure.
The hyperstatic pressure in the chamber required careful monitoring during the experiment.

Meaning

Hyperstatic usually describes a situation involving extraordinarily high pressure in fluids, particularly in physics or engineering contexts, where the fluid pressure is greater than surrounding static pressures.
