  1. compressed gas

    A compressed fluid (also called a compressed or unsaturated liquid, subcooled fluid or liquid) is a fluid under mechanical or thermodynamic conditions that force it to be a liquid.At a given pressure, a fluid is a compressed fluid if it is at a temperature lower than the saturation temperature. This is the case, for example, for liquid water at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. In a plot that compares pressure and specific volume (commonly called a p-v diagram), compressed fluid is the state to the left of the saturation curve.

  1. compressed gas

    Compressed gas refers to a type of material or substance that is stored under high pressure within some type of container. These gases exist mainly in their gaseous state under normal atmospheric conditions. If the pressure of the container is released or if the container is punctured, the gas would rapidly expand often violently depending on the type of gas and pressure. Compressed gases can be hazardous if not handled appropriately due to their potential for explosion, ability to support combustion, high pressure, and possible toxicity or corrosiveness.
