    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tecumseh_Products

    Tecumseh Products Company is an American manufacturer of hermetic compressors for air conditioning and refrigeration products. Tecumseh Products Company has subsidiaries that sell externally and internally to Tecumseh. The Tecumseh corporate offices are located in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

  3. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

    Many tankless units have fully modulating gas valves that range from as low as 10,000 to over 1,000,000 BTUs. [clarification needed] Most electrical tankless heaters require AWG 10 or 8 wire, corresponding to 5.5 or 8.5 mm 2 for typical POU (point of use) heaters at North American voltages. Larger whole-house electric units may require up to ...

  4. Air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

    Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

  5. Compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor

    Semi-hermetic compressors are used in mid-sized to large refrigeration and air conditioning systems, where it is cheaper to repair and/or refurbish the compressor compared to the price of a new one. A hermetic compressor is simpler and cheaper to build than a semi-hermetic or open compressor.

  6. Vapor-compression refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor-compression...

    A representative pressure–volume diagram for a refrigeration cycle. Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system (VCRS), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles.

  7. Compressed-air car - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed-air_car

    Compressed air cars are emission free. They also do not require a connection to the electric grid. A wind turbine or other renewable energy source can directly drive an air compressor or hydraulic pump. Compressed air cars do not rely on petrol stations or an electric grid. While centralized infrastructure might not be needed, it is an option.

  8. Single-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_electric_power

    Single-phase distribution is used when loads are mostly lighting and heating, with few large electric motors. A single-phase supply connected to an alternating current electric motor does not produce a rotating magnetic field; single-phase motors need additional circuits for starting (capacitor start motor), and such motors are uncommon above ...
