  2. Blowoff valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowoff_valve

    A blowoff valve is designed to release pressure in the intake system when the throttle is closed. A "recirculating" type blowoff valve releases the pressurised air back into the non-pressurized section of the intake (i.e. upstream of the turbocharger), while an "atmospheric venting" type blowoff valve dumps the air directly into the atmosphere.

  3. Wastegate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastegate

    An internal wastegate is a built-in bypass valve and passage within the turbocharger housing which allows excess exhaust pressure to bypass the turbine into the downstream exhaust. Control of the internal wastegate valve by a pressure signal from the intake manifold is identical to that of an external wastegate.

  4. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

    The HMU has to implement the following: the variable restriction (called the fuel metering valve FMV) and the pressure drop across it (by using a bypass valve between the high pressure fuel pump and the FMV). The pressure drop is kept constant so the fuel flow to the fuel nozzle only depends on the FMV position.

  5. Relief valve - Wikipedia

    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.

  6. Steam turbine governing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_turbine_governing

    Occasionally the turbine is overloaded for short durations. During such operation, bypass valves are opened and fresh steam is introduced into the later stages of the turbine. This generates more energy to satisfy the increased load. The schematic of bypass governing is as shown in figure3.

  7. Antilag system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antilag_system

    The first method is to use a throttle air bypass; this may be an external bypass valve or a solenoid valve which opens the throttle 12-20 degrees. This allows air to bypass the closed throttle and to reach the engine. The second method is to use a bypass valve that feeds charge air directly to the exhaust manifold.

    Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Also known as heart bypass surgery, CABG is a type of open heart surgery that improves blood flow to the heart. During the procedure, a surgeon connects ...

  9. Rebreather - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebreather

    In some rebreathers the oxygen cylinder has oxygen supply mechanisms in parallel. One is constant flow; the other is a manual on-off valve called a bypass valve; both feed into the same hose which feeds the counterlung. [12] Others are supplied via a demand valve on the counterlung.
