  2. Kaeser Compressors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaeser_Compressors

    The 22.5-acre (91,000 m 2) site includes a 155,176-square-foot (14,416.3 m 2) facility. Reiner Mueller retired in December 2008, and his son Frank assumed leadership in January 2009. Carl Kaeser, Jr., who started with Kaeser Kompressoren in 1937, worked until the day he died in 2009.

  3. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a special computer program.

  4. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

    Principal view of the pumping action of a twin-screw pump with a six-lobe female screw and a five-lobe male screw. A compressor (as opposed to a pump) would be shaped the same way, except that the shape of the lobes would change along the length of the screw, so that the volume of the trapped pockets would get squeezed smaller as they get closer to the exhaust port.

  5. Reciprocating compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_compressor

    A reciprocating compressor or piston compressor is a positive-displacement compressor that uses pistons driven by a crankshaft to deliver gases at high pressure. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Pressures of up to 5,000 psig are commonly produced by multistage reciprocating compressors.

  6. Air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

    Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

  7. Category:2-6-0 locomotives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:2-6-0_locomotives

    Locomotives classified 2-6-0 under the Whyte notation of locomotive axle arrangements. The equivalent UIC classification of locomotive axle arrangements is 1C or 1'C . Subcategories

  8. Executable compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_compression

    Software distributors use executable compression for a variety of reasons, primarily to reduce the secondary storage requirements of their software; as executable compressors are specifically designed to compress executable code, they often achieve better compression ratio than standard data compression facilities such as gzip, zip or bzip2 [citation needed].

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prussian_P_6

    In all, 275 engines of this class were built up to 1910. 110 examples had to be handed over after the First World War as reparations: 44 to Poland (PKP Oi1), 24 to Belgium, 19 to France (16 to the Nord (3.1551–3.1566), 3 to Alsace-Lorraine), 9 to Italy (FS 626), 6 to Lithuania, 4 to Latvia and 4 to the Territory of the Saar Basin (2101–2104 ...
