  2. Transfer case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_case

    Inside of a 231 New Process Gear transfer case. Part-time/Manual, shift on the fly. A transfer case is an intermediate gearbox that transfers power from the transmission of a motor vehicle to the driven axles of four-wheel-drive, all-wheel-drive, and other multi-axled on- and off-road machines.

  3. Transmission (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(mechanical...

    Transmission internals for a 2009 Volkswagen Golf. A transmission (also called a gearbox) is a mechanical device which uses a gear set—two or more gears working together—to change the speed, direction of rotation, or torque multiplication/reduction in a machine.

  4. Electric power transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission

    High-voltage direct current (HVDC) is used to transmit large amounts of power over long distances or for interconnections between asynchronous grids. When electrical energy is transmitted over very long distances, the power lost in AC transmission becomes appreciable and it is less expensive to use direct current instead.

  5. Transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmitter

    Commercial FM broadcasting transmitter at radio station WDET-FM, Wayne State University, Detroit, US.It broadcasts at 101.9 MHz with a radiated power of 48 kW.. In electronics and telecommunications, a radio transmitter or just transmitter (often abbreviated as XMTR or TX in technical documents) is an electronic device which produces radio waves with an antenna with the purpose of signal ...

  6. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple...

    This makes a round-trip-time of 464 bits. As the slot time in Ethernet is 512 bits, the difference between slot time and round-trip-time is 48 bits (6 bytes), which is the maximum jam-time. This in turn means: A station noting a collision has occurred is sending a 4 to 6 byte long pattern composed of 16 1-0 bit combinations. [note 2]

  7. Transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_line

    This can be ensured by making the load impedance equal to Z 0, in which case the transmission line is said to be matched. A transmission line is drawn as two black wires. At a distance x into the line, there is current I(x) travelling through each wire, and there is a voltage difference V(x) between the wires.

  8. Gear train - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_train

    A close-ratio transmission is a transmission in which there is a relatively little difference between the gear ratios of the gears. For example, a transmission with an engine shaft to drive shaft ratio of 4:1 in first gear and 2:1 in second gear would be considered wide-ratio when compared to another transmission with a ratio of 4:1 in first ...

  9. Performance and modelling of AC transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_and_modelling...

    In case of a nominal Π representation, the total lumped shunt admittance is divided into 2 equal halves, and each half with value Y ⁄ 2 is placed at both the sending & receiving end, while the entire circuit impedance is lumped in between the two halves. The circuit, so formed resembles the symbol of pi (Π), hence is known as the nominal Π ...
