  2. Duplexer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplexer

    These are effectively a higher-performance version of a diplexer, typically with a narrow split between the two frequencies in question (typically around 2%-5% for a commercial two-way radio system). With a duplexer the high- and low-frequency signals are traveling in opposite directions at the shared port of the duplexer.

  3. Diplexer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplexer

    The diplexer is a different device than a passive combiner or splitter. The ports of a diplexer are frequency selective; the ports of a combiner are not. There is also a power "loss" difference - a combiner takes all the power delivered to the S port and equally divides it between the A and B ports. A diplexer does not.

  4. Tank classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_classification

    Tank classification is a taxonomy of identifying either the intended role or weight class of tanks.The classification by role was used primarily during the developmental stage of the national armoured forces, and referred to the doctrinal and force structure utility of the tanks based on design emphasis.

  5. Expansion tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_tank

    An expansion tank or expansion vessel is a small tank used to protect closed water heating systems and domestic hot water systems from excessive pressure. The tank is partially filled with air, whose compressibility cushions shock caused by water hammer [ citation needed ] and absorbs excess water pressure caused by thermal expansion .

  6. DD tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DD_tank

    DD or duplex drive tanks, nicknamed "Donald Duck tanks", [1] were a type of amphibious swimming tank developed by the British during the Second World War. The phrase is mostly used for the Duplex Drive variant of the M4 Sherman medium tank , that was used by the Western Allies during and after the Normandy Landings in June 1944.

  7. Water tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_tank

    An elevated water tank, also known as a water tower, will create a pressure at the ground-level outlet of 1 kPa per 10.2 centimetres (4.0 in) or 1 psi per 2.31 feet (0.70 m) of elevation. Thus a tank elevated to 20 metres creates about 200 kPa and a tank elevated to 70 feet creates about 30 psi of discharge pressure, sufficient for most ...

  8. Water tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_tower

    Beaumont St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Water Tank (1875, restored 2012), Beaumont, Kansas, US. Although the use of elevated water storage tanks has existed since ancient times in various forms, the modern use of water towers for pressurized public water systems developed during the mid-19th century, as steam-pumping became more common, and better pipes that could handle higher pressures ...

  9. Thin-film bulk acoustic resonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin-film_bulk_acoustic...

    A thin-film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR or TFBAR) is a device consisting of a piezoelectric material manufactured by thin film methods between two conductive – typically metallic – electrodes and acoustically isolated from the surrounding medium. The operation is based on the piezoelectricity of the piezolayer between the electrodes.
