  2. Dimethoxyethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethoxyethane

    Dimethoxyethane, also known as glyme, monoglyme, dimethyl glycol, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, dimethyl cellosolve, and DME, is a colorless, aprotic, and liquid ether that is used as a solvent, especially in batteries. [2]

  3. Distance measuring equipment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_measuring_equipment

    DME is similar in principle to secondary radar ranging function, except the roles of the equipment in the aircraft and on the ground are reversed. DME was a post-war development based on the identification friend or foe (IFF) systems of World War II. To maintain compatibility, DME is functionally identical to the distance measuring component of ...

  4. Dimethyl ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_ether

    Dimethyl ether (DME; also known as methoxymethane) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 OCH 3, (sometimes ambiguously simplified to C 2 H 6 O as it is an isomer of ethanol). The simplest ether , it is a colorless gas that is a useful precursor to other organic compounds and an aerosol propellant that is currently being demonstrated for ...

  5. VOR/DME - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VOR/DME

    The VOR system was first introduced in the 1930s, but did not enter significant commercial use until the early 1950s. It became much more practical with the introduction of low-cost solid state receivers in the 1960s. DME was a modification of World War II-era navigation systems like Gee-H, and began development in 1946. Like VOR, it only ...

  6. VHF omnidirectional range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VHF_omnidirectional_range

    DVOR (Doppler VOR) ground station, collocated with DME. On-board VOR display with CDI MCT DVOR, Manchester Airport, United Kingdom.. Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range Station (VOR) [1] is a type of short-range VHF radio navigation system for aircraft, enabling aircraft with a VOR receiver to determine the azimuth (also radial), referenced to magnetic north, between the aircraft to/from ...

  7. DME - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DME

    DME (psychedelic), 3,4-dimethoxy-beta-hydroxyphenethylamine, a psychedelic drug; Dimethoxyethane, a solvent; Dimethylethanolamine, a precursor molecule for C-choline; Dimethyl ether, a fuel and an aerosol spray propellant

  8. Liquid metal electrode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_metal_electrode

    The disadvantages a DME experiences due to a constantly changing surface are not experienced by the HMDE since it has static surface area during an experiment. The static surface of the HMDE means it is more likely to suffer from the surface adsorption phenomenon than a DME. Unlike solid electrodes which need to be cleaned and polished between ...

  9. Durable medical equipment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durable_medical_equipment

    Durable medical equipment (DME) is a category of medical devices designed to assist individuals with disabilities, injuries, or chronic health conditions. [1] These devices are prescribed by healthcare professionals and intended for repeated use over an extended period.
