    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane

    Tris (pentafluorophenyl)borane, sometimes referred to as "BCF", is the chemical compound (C6F5)3B. It is a white, volatile solid. The molecule consists of three pentafluorophenyl groups attached in a "paddle-wheel" manner to a central boron atom; the BC3 core is planar. It has been described as the “ideal Lewis acid ” because of its high ...

  6. Fan clutch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_clutch

    A fan clutch is a thermostatic engine cooling fan that can freewheel at low temperatures when cooling is not needed, allowing the engine to warm up faster, relieving unnecessary load on the engine. As temperatures increase, the clutch engages so that the fan is driven by engine power and moves air to cool the engine.

  7. Variant Call Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variant_Call_Format

    The Variant Call Format or VCF is a standard text file format used in bioinformatics for storing gene sequence variations. The format was developed in 2010 for the 1000 Genomes Project and has since been used by other large-scale genotyping and DNA sequencing projects. [1][2] VCF is a common output format for variant calling programs due to its ...

  9. Fan disk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_disk

    A fan disk is the central hub of a fan in a turbofan engine. Fan blades are attached to the fan disk, which is rotated by a shaft driven by a gas turbine. [ 1] In modern passenger aircraft, most of the propulsive thrust comes from fans, which are driven by gas turbines. A single stage fan was developed to produce high thrust and act as a multi ...
