  2. Desmodromic valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmodromic_valve

    In modern engines, valve spring failure at high RPM has been mostly remedied. The main benefit of the desmodromic system is the prevention of valve float at high rpm. In traditional spring-valve actuation, as engine speed increases, the inertia of the valve will eventually overcome the spring's ability to close it completely before the piston ...

  3. Magnetohydrodynamic drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamic_drive

    Yamato 1 on display in Kobe, Japan.The first working full-scale MHD ship. A magnetohydrodynamic drive or MHD accelerator is a method for propelling vehicles using only electric and magnetic fields with no moving parts, accelerating an electrically conductive propellant (liquid or gas) with magnetohydrodynamics.

  4. Actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuator

    An actuator is a component of a machine that produces force, torque, or displacement, when an electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic input is supplied to it in a system (called an actuating system). The effect is usually produced in a controlled way. [1] An actuator translates such an input signal into the required form of mechanical energy.

  5. Marine propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_propulsion

    V12 marine diesel engines . Human-powered paddles and oars, and later, sails were the first forms of marine propulsion. Rowed galleys, some equipped with sail, played an important early role in early human seafaring and warfares. The first advanced mechanical means of marine propulsion was the marine steam engine, introduced in the early 19th ...

  6. Idle air control actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idle_air_control_actuator

    The result is an engine that fails to maintain idle RPM and frequently stalls. A jammed actuator may be freed simply by cleaning it. However an actuator that has stopped working due to a fault in its servomotor will need replacement. Air leaks in either the stepper housing or pipes will cause elevated idle RPM.

  7. Scotch yoke - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotch_yoke

    It has been used in various internal combustion engines, such as the Bourke engine, SyTech engine, and many hot air engines and steam engines. The term scotch yoke continues to be used when the slot in the yoke is shorter than the diameter of the circle made by the crank pin .
