Backwashing is a form of preventive maintenance so that the filter media can be reused. In water treatment plants, backwashing can be an automated process that is run by local programmable logic controllers (PLCs). The backwash cycle is triggered after a set time interval, when the filter effluent turbidity is greater than a treatment guideline ...
Longshore drift. Longshore drift from longshore current is a geological process that consists of the transportation of sediments (clay, silt, pebbles, sand, shingle, shells) along a coast parallel to the shoreline, which is dependent on the angle of incoming wave direction. Oblique incoming wind squeezes water along the coast, and so generates ...
Since the 1950s the vast majority of high-quality valve amplifiers, and almost all higher-power valve amplifiers have been of the push–pull type. Push–pull output stages can use triodes for lowest Z out and best linearity, but often use tetrodes or pentodes which give greater gain and power. Many output valves such as KT88, EL34, and EL84 ...
The ATS-25 is a military version with ceramic base. The Г-807 (G-807) is a Soviet/Russian version. The 6П7С (6P7S) is similar to Г-807, but with an 8-pin octal base. The 807 also found some use as a horizontal output tube in early TV receivers, particularly those manufactured by DuMont.
Swash. Swash, or forewash in geography, is a turbulent layer of water that washes up on the beach after an incoming wave has broken. The swash action can move beach materials up and down the beach, which results in the cross-shore sediment exchange. [1] The time-scale of swash motion varies from seconds to minutes depending on the type of beach ...
An air-operated valve, also known as a pneumatic valve, is a type of power-operated pipe valve that uses air pressure to perform a function similar to a solenoid. As air pressure is increased, the compressed air starts to push against the piston or diaphragm walls which causes the valve to actuate. Whether the valve opens or closes depends on ...
A single EL84 was used in low-cost equipment, and a push–pull pair for lower distortion and higher power. In common with all 'E' prefix tubes, using the Mullard–Philips tube designation, it has a heater voltage of 6.3V. It can produce 17W output in Class AB1 in push–pull configuration. Many guitar-amplifiers routinely run EL84 tubes in ...
Pinch valve, for slurry flow regulation and control. Piston valve, for regulating fluids that carry solids in suspension. Piston valve (steam engine) Plug valve, slim valve for on–off control but with some pressure drop. Solenoid valve, an electrically actuated valve for hydraulic or pneumatic fluid control.
