2. Vortex tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_tube

   The vortex tube, also known as the Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube, is a mechanical device that separates a compressed gas into hot and cold streams. The gas emerging from the hot end can reach temperatures of 200 °C (390 °F), and the gas emerging from the cold end can reach −50 °C (−60 °F). [ 1 ]

3. Vortech - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortech

   Founded in 1970, Vortech and its parent company, Prismz, provide plans, books, some kits and parts to enable hobbyists to construct a wide array of machines, including: helicopters, autogyros, mini-cars, trikes, scooters, wind generators, engines, boats and electroplating systems. Prismz also provides computer graphics and publishing layout ...

4. Centrifugal-type supercharger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal-type_supercharger

   At this point, the supercharger powers an impeller – or small rotating wheel. The impeller draws air into a small compressor housing (volute) and centrifugal force sends the air into the diffuser. The result is air that is highly pressurized, but that travels at low speed. [8]

5. General Motors Vortec engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_Vortec_engine

   The name first appeared in an advertisement for the 1985 model year 4.3 L V6 that used "vortex technology" to create a vortex inside the combustion chamber, creating a better air / fuel atomization. [1] It has since been used on a wide range of engines. Modern Vortec engines are named for their approximate displacement in cubic centimeters. I4

6. Gas-filled tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-filled_tube

   A gas-filled tube, also commonly known as a discharge tube or formerly as a Plücker tube, is an arrangement of electrodes in a gas within an insulating, temperature-resistant envelope. Gas-filled tubes exploit phenomena related to electric discharge in gases , and operate by ionizing the gas with an applied voltage sufficient to cause ...

7. Intercooler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercooler

   Air-to-liquid intercoolers are usually heavier than their air-to-air counterparts, due to additional components making up the system (e.g. water circulation pump, radiator, fluid, and plumbing). The majority of marine engines use air-to-liquid intercoolers, since the water of the lake, river or sea can easily be accessed for cooling purposes.

8. List of Mullard–Philips vacuum tubes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mullard–Philips...

   Most post-war European thermionic valve (vacuum tube) manufacturers have used the Mullard–Philips tube designation naming scheme. Special quality variants may have the letter "S" appended, or the device description letters may be swapped with the numerals (e.g. an E82CC is a special quality version of an ECC82)

9. Electric discharge in gases - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_discharge_in_gases

   The I-K region is a region of arc discharge; the plasma is concentrated in a narrow channel along the center of the tube; a great amount of radiation is produced. In cold cathode tubes, the electric discharge in gas has three regions, with distinct current–voltage characteristics: [1] I: Townsend discharge, below the breakdown voltage. At low ...
