2. 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.

3. Variable-speed air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-speed_air_compressor

   Where demand remains constant within 5–15% of the total free air delivery flow rate, dual-control compressors configured in a split solution can provide higher efficiency than a VSD. A professional air audit is the best way to identify if a VSD compressor is most appropriate for any given compressed air application. [2]

4. Automobile accessory power - Wikipedia

   High-efficiency all-electric refrigerant compressors for air conditioning are starting to be used, especially in hybrid or all-electric vehicles. The cigarette lighter receptacle serves as a de facto standard for use of portable 12 volt equipment in or near an automobile, it is sometimes used with car charger to power devices with batteries.

   Exhaust brakes are simpler in operation than an engine brake.Essentially, the exhaust pipe of the vehicle is restricted by a valve.This raises the pressure in the exhaust system, forcing the engine to work harder on the exhaust stroke of its cylinders, so again the engine is acting as an air compressor, with the power required to compress the air being withheld from the exhaust pipe, retarding ...

6. Kaeser Compressors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaeser_Compressors

   Oil flooding at the point of compression provides cleaning, lubrication and cooling, which contributes to air-end efficiency. Sigma Profile air-ends are now found in a range of compressors from 3 to 650 hp (2.2 to 484.7 kW). Kaeser continues to refine and improve the air-end design up to 1000 hp.

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.

9. Detroit Diesel Series 71 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit_Diesel_Series_71

   The inline six-cylinder 71 series engine was introduced as the initial flagship product of the Detroit Diesel Engine Division of General Motors in 1938.. This engine was in high demand during WWII, necessitating a dramatic increase in output: about 57,000 6-71s were used on American landing craft, including 19,000 on LCVPs, about 8,000 on LCM Mk 3, and about 9,000 in quads on LCIs; and 39,000 ...
