  2. Detonation spraying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonation_spraying

    It was first invented in 1955 by H.B. Sargent, R.M. Poorman and H. Lamprey and is applied to a component using a specifically designed detonation gun (D-gun). The component being sprayed must be prepared correctly by removing all surface oils, greases, debris and roughing up the surface in order to achieve a strongly bonded detonation spray ...

  3. Fume hood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fume_hood

    Periodic fume hood function inspections require the measurement of capture or face velocity [a] with an anemometer. [13]: 359 Specialized instruments for measuring wind speed in a fume hood or in ductwork are often referred to by trade names that indicate the mechanism of measurement, such as "velometer" and "vaneometer".

  4. Parts washer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts_washer

    Parts washers were originally developed for use in automotive transmission and engine repair shops as a way to improve the function of simple soak tanks.Soak tanks are vats filled with a mixture of water and detergent, which take hours to "soften" the built-up road grime, fluids, tars and oils enough to be manually rinsed off prior to disassembly and repair.

  5. Spray nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_nozzle

    Spray nozzles can have one or more outlets; a multiple outlet nozzle is known as a compound nozzle. Multiple outlets on nozzles are present on spray balls, which have been used in the brewing industry for many years for cleaning casks and kegs. [2] Spray nozzles range from those for heavy duty industrial uses to light duty spray cans or spray ...

  6. Spray (liquid drop) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_(liquid_drop)

    Examples include fuel injectors for gasoline and diesel engines, atomizers for jet engines (gas turbines), [12] atomizers for injecting heavy fuel oil into combustion air in steam boiler injectors, and rocket engine injectors. Drop size is critical because the large surface area of a finely atomized spray enhances fuel evaporation rate.

  7. Secondary air injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_air_injection

    Pumped air injection systems use a vane pump called the air pump, AIR pump, or colloquially "smog pump" turned by the engine via a belt or electric motor.The pump's air intake is filtered by a rotating screen or the vehicle air filter to exclude dirt particles large enough to damage the system.

  8. Aerosol spray dispenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerosol_spray_dispenser

    Aerosol spray is a type of dispensing system which creates an aerosol mist of liquid particles. It comprises a can or bottle that contains a payload, and a propellant under pressure. When the container's valve is opened, the payload is forced out of a small opening and emerges as an aerosol or mist. Aerosol spray can

  9. Naturally aspirated engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturally_aspirated_engine

    Typical airflow in a four-stroke engine: In stroke #1, the pistons suck in (aspirate) air to the combustion chamber through the opened inlet valve.. A naturally aspirated engine, also known as a normally aspirated engine, and abbreviated to N/A or NA, is an internal combustion engine in which air intake depends solely on atmospheric pressure and does not have forced induction through a ...
