  2. Turbo equalizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_equalizer

    In digital communications, a turbo equalizer is a type of receiver used to receive a message corrupted by a communication channel with intersymbol interference (ISI). It approaches the performance of a maximum a posteriori (MAP) receiver via iterative message passing between a soft-in soft-out (SISO) equalizer and a SISO decoder. [1]

  3. Acoustic transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_transmission_line

    Sound is introduced at one end of the tube by forcing the pressure across the whole cross-section to vary with time. An almost planar wavefront travels down the line at the speed of sound. When the wave reaches the end of the transmission line, behaviour depends on what is present at the end of the line. There are three possible scenarios:

  4. Turbo-compound engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo-compound_engine

    Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone Turbo-Compound radial engine.. The first aircraft engine to be tested with a power-recovery turbine was the Rolls-Royce Crecy.This was used primarily to drive a geared centrifugal supercharger, although it was also coupled to the crankshaft and gave an extra 15 to 35 percent fuel economy.

  5. Transmission line loudspeaker - Wikipedia

    This cross section is typically tapered down to approximately 1/4 of the starting area at the terminus or open end of the line. While not all lines use a taper, the standard classical transmission line employs a taper from 1/3 to 1/4 area (ratio of terminus area to starting area directly behind driver).

  6. Turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbocharger

    [1] [2] The current categorisation is that a turbocharger is powered by the kinetic energy of the exhaust gases, whereas a supercharger is mechanically powered (usually by a belt from the engine's crankshaft). [3] However, up until the mid-20th century, a turbocharger was called a "turbosupercharger" and was considered a type of supercharger. [4]

  7. Clairaudience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clairaudience

    Clairaudience is essentially the ability to hear in a paranormal manner, as opposed to paranormal seeing (clairvoyance) and feeling (clairsentience). Clairaudient people have psi -mediated hearing. Clairaudience may refer not to actual perception of sound, but may instead indicate impressions of the "inner mental ear" similar to the way many ...

    In 1991, Fiat incorporated a VGT into the Croma's direct-injected turbodiesel. [2] The Peugeot 405 T16, launched in 1992, used a Garrett VAT25 variable-geometry turbocharger on its 2.0-litre 16-valve engine. The 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo has twin variable-geometry turbochargers on its 3.6-litre horizontally-opposed six-cylinder gasoline engine.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Turbo-Thrift_engine

    The Turbo-Thrift 250 (also known as the High Torque 250 in trucks) version was introduced in 1966, with the same 3.875 in (98.4 mm) bore as the 230 and a longer 3.53 in (90 mm) stroke for a larger 249.8 cu in (4.1 L; 4,093 cc) displacement. Between 1975 and 1984, an integrated cylinder head was produced (intake manifold and cylinder head were a ...
