Diagram of an RTG used on the Cassini probe. A radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG, RITEG), sometimes referred to as a radioisotope power system (RPS), is a type of nuclear battery that uses an array of thermocouples to convert the heat released by the decay of a suitable radioactive material into electricity by the Seebeck effect.
Battery Council International (BCI) is a trade association of manufacturers, recyclers, distributors, and retailers of original-equipment and after-market automobile batteries and other batteries. Founded in 1924, BCI has its headquarters in Washington, D.C., USA.

Nameplate capacity, also known as the rated capacity, nominal capacity, installed capacity, maximum effect or gross capacity, [1] is the intended full-load sustained output of a facility such as a power station, [2] [3] electric generator, a chemical plant, [4] fuel plant, mine, [5] metal refinery, [6] and many others.
The main 50/60 Hz transformer used to convert between line voltage and battery voltage needs to provide two slightly different turns ratios: One to convert the battery output voltage (typically a multiple of 12 V) to line voltage, and a second one to convert the line voltage to a slightly higher battery charging voltage (such as a multiple of ...
RCI (formerly Group RCI and, before that, Resort Condominiums International) is a timeshare exchange company with over 4,300 affiliated resorts in 100 countries. Founded in Indiana in 1974 by Jon and Christel DeHaan , RCI is one of the two main timeshare exchange businesses, along with Interval International (II).
Without a heat sink at an ambient temperature at 50 °C, a maximum power dissipation of (T J-T A)/R θJA = ((125-50)/80) = 0.98 W can be permitted. In a constant voltage mode with an input voltage source at V IN at 34 V and a desired output voltage of 5 V, the maximum output current will be P MAX / (V IN-V O) = 0.98 / (34-5) = 32 mA.
It claimed that, on one day in summer 2018, "half the diagrammed units were out of action as engines shut down through overheating". [ 24 ] The Class 800 and Class 802 bi-mode are equipped with three GU per five-car set and five GU per nine-car set; a five-car set has a GU situated under vehicles 2/3/4 and a nine-car set has a GU situated under ...
