2. Free-piston linear generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-piston_linear_generator

   The free-piston engine linear generators can be divided in 3 subsystems: [1] [2] One (or more) reaction section with a single or two opposite pistons; One (or more) linear electric generator, which is composed of a static part (the stator) and a moving part (the magnets) connected to the connection rod.

3. Development of tidal stream generators - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_tidal...

   SME PLAT-I 6.4 horizontal, in-stream, floating tidal energy generator at Grand Passage site in Nova Scotia, Canada. The floating PLAT-I 4.63 was developed for community-scale deployments in inshore waters. It had four 6.3 m diameter turbines mounted on a floating boat-like structure.

4. Hardware random number generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_random_number...

   A USB-pluggable hardware true random number generator. In computing, a hardware random number generator (HRNG), true random number generator (TRNG), non-deterministic random bit generator (NRBG), [1] or physical random number generator [2] [3] is a device that generates random numbers from a physical process capable of producing entropy (in other words, the device always has access to a ...

5. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

   Thermoelectric generators are primarily used as remote and off-grid power generators for unmanned sites. They are the most reliable power generator in such situations as they do not have moving parts (thus virtually maintenance-free), work day and night, perform under all weather conditions and can work without battery backup.

6. Electric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

   A magnetohydrodynamic generator directly extracts electric power from moving hot gases through a magnetic field, without the use of rotating electromagnetic machinery. MHD generators were originally developed because the output of a plasma MHD generator is a flame, well able to heat the boilers of a steam power plant. The first practical design ...

7. Function generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_generator

   A completely different approach to function generation is to use software instructions to generate a waveform, with provision for output. For example, a general-purpose digital computer can be used to generate the waveform; if frequency range and amplitude are acceptable, the sound card fitted to most computers can be used to output the generated wave.

8. Neutron generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_generator

   Neutron generators are neutron source devices which contain compact linear particle accelerators and that produce neutrons by fusing isotopes of hydrogen together. The fusion reactions take place in these devices by accelerating either deuterium , tritium , or a mixture of these two isotopes into a metal hydride target which also contains ...

9. Steam generator (nuclear power) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_generator_(nuclear...

   This Babcock & Wilcox nuclear steam generator moved in a special train (restricted to 20 mph) via the Penn Central Railroad and Southern Railway from Barberton, Ohio to a Duke Energy site in Oconee, S.C. This generator weights 1,140,000 lbs and is a record shipment for the Railroad at that time (1970). A once-through steam generator A VVER ...
