2. Nickel aluminide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_aluminide

   Nickel aluminide refers to either of two widely used intermetallic compounds, Ni 3 Al or NiAl, but the term is sometimes used to refer to any nickel–aluminium alloy. These alloys are widely used because of their high strength even at high temperature, low density, corrosion resistance, and ease of production. [ 1 ]

3. Fuel pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_pump

   By submerging the pump in fuel at the bottom of the tank, the pump is cooled by the surrounding fuel; Liquid fuel by itself (i.e. without oxygen present) isn't flammable, therefore surrounding the fuel pump by fuel reduces the risk of fire; In-tank fuel pumps are often part of an assembly consisting of the fuel pump, fuel strainer and fuel ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M970

   M970's were used to assist in loading the bladders for the Tactical Airfield Fuel Dispensing Systems (TAFDS) in the field as well. Part of the TAFDS, the fuel bladders. The M969/M969A1 is a self loading and unloading tank semi-trailer designed to carry and dispense fuel to other vehicles at Forward Arming and Refueling Points.

5. Unit pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_pump

   The Unit Pump system [1] is a modular high-pressure diesel injection system, which is closely related to the unit Injector system, and is designed for use in commercial vehicle diesel engines. [ 2 ] The systems use an individual injection pump mounted on the engine block for each cylinder so it is primarily designed for OHV or "cam in the block ...

6. Gasoline pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_pump

   A modern gasoline pump is divided into two main parts – an electronic "head" containing an embedded computer to control the action of the pump, drive the pump's displays, and communicate to an indoor sales system; and a mechanical section which (in a self-contained unit) has an electric motor, pumping unit, meters, pulsers and valves to ...

7. Fuel gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_gauge

   As used in vehicles, the gauge consists of two parts: The sending unit - in the tank; The indicator - on the dashboard; The sending unit usually uses a float connected to a potentiometer, typically printed ink design in a modern automobile. As the tank empties, the float drops and slides a moving contact along the resistor, increasing its ...

8. Fuel tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_tank

   A fuel tank (also called a petrol tank or gas tank) is a safe container for flammable fluids, often gasoline or diesel fuel. Though any storage tank for fuel may be so called, the term is typically applied to part of an engine system in which the fuel is stored and propelled ( fuel pump ) or released (pressurized gas) into an engine .

9. Vapor recovery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_recovery

   The negative pressure created by a vacuum pump typically located in the fuel dispenser, combined with the pressure in the car's fuel tank caused by the inflow, is usually used to pull in the vapors. They are drawn in through holes in the side of the nozzle and travel along a return path through another hose.
