    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-explosive_anti-tank

    With the effectiveness of gun-fired single charge HEAT rounds being lessened, or even negated by increasingly sophisticated armoring techniques, a class of HEAT rounds termed high-explosive anti-tank multi-purpose, or HEAT-MP, has become more popular. These are HEAT rounds that are effective against older tanks and light armored vehicles but ...

  5. Brushless DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor

    The maximum power that can be applied to a brushless motor is limited almost exclusively by heat; [citation needed] too much heat weakens the magnets and damages the windings' insulation. When converting electricity into mechanical power, brushless motors are more efficient than brushed motors primarily due to the absence of brushes, which ...

  9. Raygun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raygun

    Ray guns are often shown as transmitting heat, as with Wells' heat rays. [2] Ray guns may be used to cut through hard materials like a blowtorch. [2] But sometimes not: In movies, rays are often depicted as having effect instantaneously, with a touch of the beam sufficing for the intended purpose. [2]
